Hong Kong Food Tour: Awesome Dimsum in Lú Fēng Restaurant

Ultimate Dimsum Restaurant at Victoria Peak, Hong Kong



My family and I went to Hong Kong in the evening of July 9 for a week long vacation and for some food hunting.

For our first day, we visited Victoria Peak. We took the easiest way up which is via Tram and we were able to reach Sky Terrace 428 to checkout the sky scrapers of Hong Kong.
They have a great view up there! You can actually see the man-made beauty of Hong Kong with the contrast of its natural landscapes.

We went there during day time tho so we were not able to see the "dancing lights" of Hong Kong from Victoria Peak.

After roaming around the area, we look for a good restaurant that serves Dimsum meals. I was thinking of going back to Kowloon area but we decided to just eat there in the mall.
So we went to a restaurant called Lú Fēng Restaurant that serves different kinds of Chinese dishes that I'm not familiar with.



So, we ordered a couple of their Dimsum / dumpling specialties like; Har Gow, Siu Mai, Xiao Long Bao, Tofu skin rolls with pork, Beef balls with pickled ginger, Barbaque pork bun, and Scallop and baby leaf dumplings.


Har Gow, Siu Mai, and Xiao Long Bao


Tofu Skin Rolls with pork

Barbaque Pork Bun


The food was excellent!

I kid you not, but for us Filipinos, it's not a meal if there's no rice in it. But this one is worthy enough to eat without rice!

The only problem of this place I guess is that no one speaks English. You might experience a little trouble with ordering your food. The ordering is like a guessing game, you'll be surprise when the food is already in your table.



If you're looking for a good service and accommodating service crew, Lú Fēng Restaurant might not be the best one but their food is awesome!

It was a food exploration worth keeping.

Paano Ba Manligaw: Pinoy style (How To Court Her: Filipino Style)

PAANO NGA BA ANG MANLIGAW? Napakaraming katanungan na ang aking natatanggap tungkol sa panliligaw. Marami nang mga usapin, kwentuhan, at mahabang inuman ang nasayang dahil sa usaping ito. Madalas ay naririnig lamang natin ang panig ng mga kababaihan tungkol sa usaping ligawan. Pagkatapos  kasi manligaw ng isang lalaki, minsan ay ayaw na nilang pagusapan pa kung paano nila ginawa ang panliligaw sa kanilang mga girlfriend o asawa. Sa part na 'to, ang mga experiences  naman ng mga lalaki ang ating aalamin at pag-uusapan. PAANO NGA BA MANLIGAW ANG ISANG TUNAY NA LALAKI? Yung tipong May flowers and roses ba o yung simpleng panliligaw lang ang effective sa mga babae? Madalas kasi naa- underestimate ang mga boys . Madalas sinasabi ng iba ay, "Naku, binigyan ka ng roses? I'm sure sa umpisa lang 'yan ganyan." O kaya minsan naman, "Naku, Wala manlang mairegalo sayo yang nanliligaw sayo? Wala yatang pera yan e. Mapapakain ka ba nyan??

Insarabasab, an Ilocano delicacy To be honest, this is one of my personal favorite food and I would like to share how awesome this is! This is a local Filipino-Ilocano dish called Insarabasab where the Liempo or pork's belly also known as bacon strips are roasted over to an open fire. It's almost similar to pork barbeque but what makes it more native is that it only needs salt and pepper for seasoning. This dish is perfectly served with awesome spicy-vinegary sauce and steam rice! For the Sawsawan or sauce: 3/4 vinegar 1/4 soy sauce cracked black pepper 1/2 teaspoon of salt 2 sliced banana pepper 1 red pepper 5-8 calamansi 2 red onions (You can add more chilis in the sauce) It is juicy, fatty, tender, and flavorful! You can actually taste the smoky flavor from the meat! It is plain and simple but so delicious! Ordinary day turned awesome with this Insarabasab This dish is perfectly served with some grilled vegies. In this one, the grilled

Baloy beach, Olongapo city Philippines This is Baloy Beach , also known as Baloy Long Beach . It is a beachfront community near Barrio Barretto in Olongapo City, Subic Bay, Philippines . It's only 160.2km away from Manila and that's approximately 2hrs and 30min drive via North Luzon Expressway.

You can also rent cottages if you're just planning to stay during the day. You'll also see some wet & dry public markets along the way so if you want to buy some snacks, beer, and seafood you can get it from the market place.
