ROFL those videos are hilarious!!! The Michael Jackson one is my favourite hahahaha

I went to Hong Kong in end July/early August as that was my birthday trip. Yes, it was raining all the time! Next time round I definitely must pick better weather lol

Oh, thanks for the warning! That’s actually one of my favourite vegetable dishes, although I don’t have it very often. Almost every Chinese restaurant here would have it.

I am not Cantonese myself and don’t understand the language. In Singapore, there are a few major dialect groups among the Chinese. The common ones are Hokkien/Fujian (myself), Cantonese/Guangdong and Teochew/Chaozhou.

yes, u mean kong-choi , again we dont know malay wording, we use mainly cantonese, do u know cantonese? here i need to websurf what is kangkong again and come across a page telling cannot eat too much this vege , would cause ” Varicose Veins and
Weakness in the knees & legs” . well we like it too , eat few times a year no problem i guess.

what time did u go HK last time indeed ? It is mostly good weather in HK and Macau similar as it is close to HKG. Only July-Aug may have storm days, but people enjoy to go seaside near pier to watch such big pouring rain and experience the windy for fun as we can see on tV and youtude. hahah

and specially worth a look here how our TV news reporter perform MJ moonwalk in typhoon:

other than such extreme weather, other days are mostly fine, Autumn in oct to dec would be performance less hot and no storm.

Here, the restaurants and food sellers usually stir-fry vegetables with belachan and they taste really good. One vegetable that is commonly cooked this way is the Kangkong (not sure if it is a common dish in Hong Kong).

Yes, that was one hectic day and I barely had any sleep! But time was running out. The rainy weather also stopped me from visiting many places that I wanted to see. Thank goodness for the 24 hour turbojet, I could go to Macau and make it back to Hong Kong in the wee hours.

Next time round, I would take your advice and go for a longer trip. What is the best time of the year to visit Hong Kong? Hopefully it would be cool and non-rainy :)

belachan .. oic,… not know this word.. search in wiki , got it , u are right … this is it .. and i find exactly in wiki a foto they showing Malay belanchan in bricks ! haha!

Oh my goodness, I would never have guessed! Here, we call this shrimp paste “belachan“. I’ve never seen them in such blocks. Thanks for enlightening me!

hi again thank you so much for your blogs..they are really useful….can i ask one more thing?…do you have more trips abroad?….

Thanks, Marc! I have updated my post with the name of the bridge :)

As its suggested by it’s name, it’s named after the long established friendship between the Chinese and the Portuguese

Huishan was actually two or three years my senior in secondary school. But the funny thing is that we never met! We got to know each other through online gamng.

btw, the bridge look dreamy beacuse of the foogy window i think. that make the picture look really nice…. and also.. i think the bridge is call xin ma da qiao. but i might be wrong…
