Hong Kong Outing - Christmas Dim Sum Lunch

Ma Wan Park 馬彎公園

December 14, 2008 Sunday

Visit Ma Wan Park and Park Island. Many local tours come here, because it is new. But transportation is expensive. HK$20 per trip from Pier 2 in Central. Took 25 minutes to come.

去馬彎公園, 順便看青馬大橋, 你話壯吾壯觀?

Close encounter with the Tsing Ma Bridge 搭船來回, 每程要二十大元, 好貴呀 !

呢幅係懷舊相, 你話係懷D 什麼 ?

In memory of Anna's childhood?!!

澳洲園D袋鼠是假的

The kangaroos in Australia Garden are fake ones!

Offsite Discovery Project

Macau Offsite
November 20-22, 2008
My company had an offsite in Macau. I was appointed the organiser. We stayed at the Westin. We were divided into teams to explore Macau and had to report on the place and each other. Our team was assigned to visit the Lighthouse. Though I have been to Macau countless times, this place looks a little new to me. At least I don't remember the typhoon signs.

掛十號風球
I don't think these typhoon signal are still in use

集思會, 歎姜汁奶茶
雖然我成日來澳門, 但飲姜汁奶茶都係第一次, 吾錯, 值得推薦
Group discussion - enjoy a cup of ginger milk tea.
I have been to Macau for many times, but never tasted ginger milk tea.

It is nice, I shall recommend it.

A Petisqueira Lunch

葡國美食天地 - 名符其實, 好好食
Restaurante A Petisqueira - Taipa Island, Macau
November 21, 2008 - Friday

Don't know how my boss identify this little restaurant on Taipa Island. Very authentic Portuguese food, well done, nicely presented and not expensive at all. Inclusive of 10% service fee, we paid only HK$6,700 for the 28 of us. A very good deal comparing with the poor dinner at Fernando last night.

Tapa 葡國火腿香腸和芝士

睇樣你都會話靚, 人人都想食

Does this look beautiful and attractive ?

Paella (seafood rice) 海鮮飯

真係色香味齊, 材料豐富, 確是非一般海鮮飯, 值得回味

There are really lots of seafood inside. Very delicious.

Highly recommended

Grilled Chicken 燒鷄

呢隻燒鷄燒得好食過昨晚果隻

Very nice. Better than the one of last night.

Pineapple with Port Wine 紅酒菠蘿
我食咗咁耐葡國餐, 這個都算新菜式, 認真吾錯

A new Portuguese dessert that I never taste before.

Very innovative and delicious.

Mixed Salad 什菜沙律

睇樣都整得精巧過昨晚果碟

Only by looking at the photo,

you can tell this is far better done than the one we had last night.

葡式下午茶

出法去睇SHOW 前, 喺威斯叮食番個下午茶餐先.

都吾知算英式定葡式

炒蜆好食過昨晚果碟, 雖然都係有沙.

燒魚,燒排骨, 燒蝦和海鮮焗豆都好好味

甜品仲有egg pudding 和chocolate mousse

咖啡奶茶一應俱全

色香味全兼價廉物美, 是老闆的好介紹, 值得向大家推薦

The fried clams are much better done than Fernando's, though still with sands. Grilled fish, spare ribs, prawns and seafood white beans are all very good. Apart from pineapples, we also had egg pudding and chocolate mousse as our dessert. We all had our thumbs up. Full services of coffee and tea. A very well equipped restaurant with good and friendly services. Highly recommended.

Fernando Dinner

法蘭度- 名大於質
Restaurante Fernando - Coloane Island, Macau
November 20, 2008 - Thursday

Accept reservation only on weekdays. Take cash only - NO credit cards.

No matter what, we arrived soon before 7pm, but the restaurant was almost full. It was expensive, set dinner plus wine/drink, without service charge, still cost HK$9,700 for the 28 of us. Though expensive, however not impressive at all.

Charcoal-grilled Chicken 燒鷄

成晚只係得燒鷄叫做可以收貨

This is the only acceptable dish for the whole night

Charcoal-grilled Sea Bream 燒立魚

D 同事話條魚好重泥味, 但係我吾覺, 只算不錯不失

My colleagues said the fish had a heavy smell of mud

Oven-roasted Suckling Pig 燒乳豬

D 肉 '煤' 既, 好差 !

Rotten meat? Totally unacceptable

Fried Prawns with Garlic 葡式煎蝦

接近 '煤', 勉勉強強

Fairly acceptable, not impressive at all

Fernando's Style Green Salad 什菜沙律

睇樣你都會話佢'馬虎'

Doesn't look impressive at all?

碟炒蜆更加慘不忍睹, 賣相甚差, 兼且有好多沙.

葡國芝士, (除咗我老闆, 冇人鍾意食)

咖啡,只提供Espresso,兼且無奶,甜品欠奉

都吾知佢點做生意

Clams came with sand. Portuguese cheese - nobody like them, except my boss. Served only Expresso, not even a regular coffee. The whole menu had no dessert. I don't kown how they can be such a famous and expensive restaurant, however with lots of customers.

Beijing in Red

北京深秋紅葉之旅
香山公園 - Oct 17, 2008
Xiangshan Park (Frangrant Hill)

擇紅而噬

A red tour in Beijing

We come specially to see the red leaves

可惜仲未曾好紅

Unfortunately, not red enough
呢棵紅樹都吾知真定假
this little red tree doesn't look real
眼慢就搵吾到這棵
It's not easy to find a red tree now

滿園秋色, 不過吾夠紅

I believe the red index is only 3%

人道平分秋色, 看看北京的秋色

but in two weeks time, it should turn 70%

紅葉聽說是由溫差大而形成

leaves turn red because of the big daily temperature difference

話說我們來早了, 應該再過兩個星期便會滿山紅遍

而家好不容易至搵到幾棵

The whole mountain will turn red by November

其實北京到處都有紅葉, 不過香山最多

Red leaves everywhereXiangshan Park has the most red leaves
