BY MTR - HONGKONG DISNEYLAND

Personally I believe that the fastest way to go to Hongkong Disneyland is by MTR.

Take the MTR to Sunny Bay MTR station where you change train to Disneyland Resort Line which will take you to Disneyland Resort station.

The MTR train going to HK Disneyland is a specially designed Disney train. Riding on the Disney design MTR is in itself  already an entertainment. The train is so cute with Disney characters accessorizing the interior of the train.

THE BEST PEKING DUCK IN HONG KONG

Average Spending: HKD 200 - 300 per person

2 weeks or 14 days or half a month ... that is how long most people have to book in advance in to dine here. Spring Deer Restaurant is one of the few remaining old-school Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong and it is famous for its Peking Duck.

We were lucky that my uncle knew the owners. So we always get a table whenever we are in Hong Kong.

 DINING AREA AT THE FIRST FLOOR

The decor remained pretty much the same over the last few decades.  It was always full house with staff rushing back and forth. Worth noting that most of the dishes come in 3 different sizes, Small - Medium - Large.  The idea of offering different dish size was nothing new, it was there long before I was even born.

 THE PEKING DUCK CHEF

They offer Peking Duck - Three Ways! It was fun watching the chef preparing the Peking duck! 

This restaurant is famous for its specialty -- honey-glazed Peking duck, which costs HK$280 (US$36/£18) and is good for two to four persons. Since you'll probably have to wait 40 minutes for the duck if you order it during peak time (7:30-9:30pm), it's best to arrive either before or after the rush.

WRAPPER

 The first way was in the traditional way of sliced skin with Chinese pancakes.

 Yummy Peking Duck rolls

The second way to enjoy the Peking Duck dish was the common Lettuce Wrap with Minced Duck.

 PEKING DUCK SOUP

The Peking Duck third dish was the Peking Duck soup.  You see you could request them to chop the remaining duck into small pieces to make this soup. Not that there were much duck flavor to the soup but it was quite comforting to drink.


Enjoy your Peking Duck!

October 31, 2011 A Non-Working Holiday

Last October 10, 2011, President Noynoy Aquino signed Proclamation No. 265 declaring October 31, 2011 as a special non-working day throughout the Philippines. 


That makes the weekend of October 29-30 extend to November 1, which is traditionally a non-working day for Filipinos — All Saints Day.


Rejoice! We now have four (4)days vacation!

The President wants to give the Filipinos to properly observe the Holy Day and thus the additional holiday will provide us time to travel to our respective hometowns. 


Here’s a copy of Proclamation No. 265

THE FAMOUS EGGETTE IN HONGKONG

An eggette is a kind of spherical pancake or ball waffle popular in the Cantonese-speaking regions of China, including Hong Kong and Macau. 

The food item is also referred to as an 

• egg puff
• egg waffle
• bubble waffle 
• or by its Cantonese name, gai daan jai (鷄蛋仔)

Eggettes' are made from eggs, sugar, flour, and light evaporated milk. They are best served hot, and often eaten plain. They can also be served with fruit and flavors such as strawberry, coconut or chocolate. They are sometimes referred to as "Hong Kong cakes" in Chinatown across America, especially in New York.

You could buy and eat This "Eggette"  along Granville Road in Tsim Sha Tsui. There are 2 to 3 shops along this area.

Eggettes' are one of the most popular Hong Kong "street snacks" and was ranked No.3 in the 50 most popular HK "street snack".

They seemed to be easy to make all you need are 2 steel eggette mould, eggs and flour mixture and electricity and there you have the eggette you want.


But then again the simpler it seems, the better skills it takes. Eggette doesn't seem much different from waffles or pancakes you get from Jollibee. but then the skills involved can be so much more demanding.

Watching the production of the Mammy Pancake, one would finally understand what it means by skills and how minor improvements from the existing skills can make such a big difference in the quality.

Mammy Pancake house is a very popular pancake store among the locals in Hong Kong. It is located at Shop 2A, G/F, Whampoa Street, Hung Hom 紅磡黃埔街2號A地下

 Mammy Pancake Signage

Mammy Pancake make their eggette slowly, real slow while you could see one store down Kimberley Street, Tsim Sha Tsui, and the man juggles between five eggette moulds and he serves 10 customers in 10 minutes, make 10 eggettes every single minute and people lined up quickly leave with their order. No problem at all for that guy! But the eggettes taste plain and normal as any other ones you could find almost anywhere else. 

On the other hand, Mammy Pancake's staff spent at least 3 to 4 minutes to make one eggette, and the long queue of customers have to wait for 15 minutes for their food but yet they waited!

Average waiting time: 15 minutes. Make your order first and they will give you a token with number. They will call you when your order is ready.
Instead of having a typical chocolate coloured and flavoured pancake, Mammy offers plain egg pancake with lots of chocolate bits spreading randomly across the whole pancake. What's more fascinating was that the chocolate bites were all melted within the egg pancakes, so you could literally taste the smooth chocolate paste sweetening your palate.

The texture of the egg pancake was crispy and light with a strong taste of egg. It also contained the aroma of egg and chocolate on it. The melted chocolate was pretty smooth and had a similar taste as the chocolate filling of the Lotte's Koala chocolate biscuit. Such a scrumptious chocolate pancake, totally worth the wait!

There are three choices of flavor - original, chocolates and WHITE SESAME!

Happy Eating!
