Hong Kong Thai Restaurant

We’ll be booking our round trip flights this week but are still in the process of cementing just what we’ll do in the Philippines and Hong Kong.  If you have any recommendations for accommodations, places to eat, and places to see that are off the beaten path, please leave me a comment!

As we figure out these logistics with your help, I’ll leave you with a taste of Asia from my last trip to Hong Kong and Macau.

What should we see and eat?

The Hong Kong Thai fusion restaurant that ruined me for Thai food in Vancouver.  It’s a beautifully laid out venue with an entire wall face of glass that looked out over the harbour. My culinary planner for the week had arranged a 7:30pm reservation so that we could catch the breathtaking light show during our meal.

The food was one of the most memorable of that week. My colleagues had favourite dishes so they ordered plate after plate of Thai food that I had never before encountered (at home, we usually don’t veer far from the pad thai and curries that one normally sees on North American menus). Faves: a crab noodle dish that came highly recommended; the pomelo salad; the beef with red rice; the experience of rolling up my own rice paper roll of roasted duck and guava.

Small Makanese restaurant near my relative’s flat in Macau.  Simple, homestyle stuff, but I’d take my husband here in a heartbeat.

Food stalls along Electric Road wink at you from every corner.  The best vegetarian dim sum and congee I’ve ever had to date was found in this vibrant Hong Kong neighbourhood.
