It was a little fate that led us to find this little hole-in-wall eatery that was listed on the itinerary that Wy sent. We were starving after the early morning flight, the long walk (including getting lost) to find our hotel and deciding between food or H&M. If we had seen any eateries along Central we would have popped in but there just weren’t any.

This is definitely a must-try in Hongkong. Don’t be put-off by the queue as it actually moves quite quickly as the turnover is pretty quick, but of course that means it is no place for you to chit chat. You order, you eat, you siam. Like all 茶餐厅 in HongKong, you would have to share with random people and deal with hurried ordering and eating. (this shop in particular is super efficient in their seating arrangements, experts in dinerdash!)

The seowsis and I ordered the famous chickenchop 出钱一丁 noodles, a pork chop bun and toast to share. Looking around, that was pretty much what everyone else (a good mix of locals and tourists) chose too.

The food arrived quickly and was gobbled down just as quickly. We left feeling satisfied, very satisfied. It was yums!

Lan Fong Yuen – No 4A-6, Gage Street 2, Central (Central Exit D2, turn right until you see 100 Queen’s Road Central, go up the escalator* and go up two sections to exit at Gage street).

Thanks for lunch! Just cause you lost the bet. This is what we thrive on – proving each other wrong/right – not on sweet words and expensive gifts.

Censorship

leave a comment »

I actually stopped myself and I dislike this lack of freedom of speech – it’s like so many people watching your every move and taking views and you don’t quite know the consequences. Of course, we should all hear two sides of the story and see their point of view but with all those history lurking around and what others have said, who do you now trust? Judgement day is coming and will come soon – which side would you cast your votes? Or would you be the lucky few bystanders – to see how the results would be?

For sure, one party would be hurt. I just know I need to do the right thing so that my conscience is clear. Who will win? The man in white or not? Hmm.. Or perhaps a void should do the trick.

Cryptic messages just don’t work – some people are too sensitive. Honey, It ain’t always about you. I like cryptic messages because I like that anonmity – the truth disguised in passages, one-liners only I know – or so I hope to be.

I have learnt not to trust too easily because agendas differs and changes in people catches you unaware.

So many a times I drop by here, only to leave with an empty space but a heavy heart.

The shoes two sizes too big, the hat that’s bigger than my head — self doubt, the slow descent into negativity and a total destruction to my confidence. I know I am better than this. But where do I start? How do I start? There should be an end to laziness.
