there's a famous bakery just behind a couple of blocks, go queue first before opening time..
cilaka, 30 min before opening time already so long queue


DLLM PKHKC open baru 18 min already sold out all the famous egg tarts...oi, still got long line behind


so pre-ordered for 11am pickup, got a plain croissant and some salted caramel custard polo bun


not bad, delicious


go out dim sum another round, like no dim sum to eat in tokyo..oh wai..it's true, tokyo dim sum not for human eat


pukul 12, still raining..go pick up the egg tarts, and still long queue in the rain.
i think it was 72 KHD for a box, mahal

terrible weather as usual




drop by mak's noodle for late lunch

Guangzhou dimsums are the bestt!

this chee cheong fun see also know is good quality, smooth smooth with nice coated oil on the skin

Kopitiam bagus bagus~

I had these…the clear broth one is doggie noodle & the other is duck stew with silver noodles. Block 18 doggie noodles located in Jordan. Different & delicious. Michelin guide.

Ah brings back memories. The best redeeming feature of DLLM city is the dim sum. Really very nice, not same like in Msia. Looks similar but taste much better, don't know how to describe.

just went there again last dec...

tbh....food quality drop significantly compare to pre covid...
used to go there for makan trip.....

Remember to try out their local fruit

pls explain what we are looking at in the phone addict traffic lights
i dont understand
tia

taste good just that the DLLM staffs are bad....

many other country got nice HK dim sum nowadays as many chef and rich owners migrated and open new restaurant, just much much more expensive,

this one

Is this your original image ? LOL

Walking in hk is like walking in petaling street, only difference is that the petaling street itself is a country in hk

Ai generated

HK is pretty boring, go there nothing to do or see.

Go Macau better.

Petaling street all Bangla..macam mana sama dengan hk?

Unker found HK dimsum doesnt for my taste, local malaysian style dimsum tasted way better.

Yes, unker have tried those tayar guide 1 also. still taste funny.

Even their chairsiew and siewyuk dont taste good. The only redeeming stuff was the wanton mee which is miles better.

I mean the feels, it's like everywhere is expired old buildings

Ts's wife quite hnnngh~

Hk real good stuff is their beef offal noodle and cheong fun, other than that I am OK ok la, their kopitiam food like macoroni soup I kenot

Original ! LOL

but the pakaian can improve a bit...mcm ah soh la....

true, beef noodle quite good. But unker prefer the taiwanese style more.

the tong fun (macaroni soup) is awful.

Got many good food but when I go myself can't find already
Last time my hk frens tour me damn many hidden restaurant above building, u go to a office building sya level 3 suddenly it's a restaurant with ppl doing wok wtf. The ground level shop are really for tourist only, nice food all hidden in building

dayum, their dim sum is bestest

Ini yang orang cina Malaysia sibuk beria pergi Hong Kong bercuti?

The food looks like exactly u can get in Malaysia.

That Wet Market looks exactly like wet market in Malaysia. The surrounding and others also nothing interesting based on pics

cheap cheap cheap COSPA max!

sek foh wor

never seen this before, look interesting

dont understand
TS didnt take that pic?

the dimsum in HK is quite bland compared to MY-at least the few i have eaten there
even my HK fren says KL dimsum nicer than HK dimsum--she says maybe KL uses more salt and ajinomoto

for dim sum, so are nicer but idk, seems like easier to find good ones in MY although the last visit back to KL wtf all the dim sum not for human eat luckily i had good one before going back to JP in KK foo phing

go over to Guangzhou eat next time, more bang for your ringgit

celaka so exp

Was about to say that. HK dimsum more cheng, KL dim sum if eat a lot feel very jelak. I prefer HK style.

Beef offal and grilled pork intestines are the best! thumbs:

Their shrimp taste better. MY uses cheap shrimp dat why

Maybe coz they don’t have chilli sauce?

bos, can share a bit on the detail itinerary?
Thx in adv

TS
how much set meal at mekdi HK and JP?
last time i was in these places, i think it was around rm 25-30 for a set

Dim sum my favourite leh big portion, but HK go once dont turn back anymore

Wah bro, ur wife real picture ? Lucky guy

yaman.....in my bucket list...need to plan on it...since now visa free....

some HK are better...some local are better....
i found local charsiewbao is better local

To be Top5, 20k salary
You need to buy and take picture eating it with LYN thread as timestamp

Their dim sum is more.... "tame" compared to ours. Not heavy flavoured.

Damn, that bad meh.... I going there next month leh....

Macau any interesting places to go visit and eat?

Can go to the casinos & Venetian, just a few weeks after I went there was a prostitution bust by the police.

Other than that there was historical Portuguese landmarks such as Monte Fort & ruins of Saint Paul.

Mana kaoloon pic?
Mana HK ham macaroni clear soup?
Mana CCT DLLM waiters pic?

That's because our tastebuds have been "tuned" to eat more salty and with sauces food. HK ones are very plain and simple - when you ask them for the sweet sauce usually served with our dim sum, they give you "THE LOOK" like WTF you are asking?

As for wan ton mee.... well, that depends. I like the texture more, but taste.....

Haiya, next time i just erase the entire human je
bagi peha nak betis

long time no walk petaling street, at least got 10 years ago

damn, shouldn't have skipped macau

dayum, hungry liao

My fav is the chui wah restaurant in mong kok

Dunno man...alot mainlander in HK nao...
Most restaurants stalls are operate by them..
Tepi jalan Kari fshball stall also them.....
Kek

Singapore Hokkien fried mee:

White not black.



REAAALLY miss THAT. But can't go back to eat already. Kena blacklisted by ICA, macam like some bodoh (or botak) telurist.

😭😭

i like our one stronger taste aka more aji
a lot of michelin one kenot pakai one

wtf...Taiwanese beef noodle like eat pepper only, mana nice?

kasi chan la.. I not as lucky as u stay in MY everyday can eat good food

HK is bapak gila mahal

Food is nice but not like it's 2 or 3 times better than MY. MY equivalent can put up a fight with HK la

But Hongkie attitude really f@#ked up especially their service people

lol kecian tak pernah try good taiwan beef noodle.

I cannot brain their food price

You want a toast + milk tea? 50-60 HKD

Might as well get proper meal from Yoshionoya / MCD / Restaurant

I got full french brunch for like 150 HKD at central

Le parisian buffet. 650 Macau dollar

can eat lobster and foie gras till you puke

Thank you TS ! amazing as always. 👍🏼

aji is love

you mean HK? or other parts (guangzhou, shenzhen)?

Japan one around 500 yen to 1100 yen

this is for HK

In HK got one word. If the girl willing to eat McD with you, that was Waifu material. McD in HK are lowest and cheapest class food, Even "Cha Chan Teng" food also higher class than McD.

ok another air con compressor water day

HK really wont make you going again except for the food, some food is really nice

crowded on the streets, someone in front smoking when you walking, plus air con water dripping. your wife is smart to ban HK

wut bro, Taiwan got the best beef noodle in the world, better than China Lanzhou, HK, Vietnam

time to go Taiwan for beef noodles trip, so near and typhoon finding you in Japan

you think singapore bak kut teh all pepper soup ah?

My wife more pretty IRL

Buy plane ticket first, apply leave and book hotel later

Hmmm I think never tried the char siew bao in Guangzhou or HK..but I tried Yokohama char siew bao. Memang MY one wayyy better

Kek, I rather buy flight ticket fly back MY and eat

wut did you do

ts thanks for the thread, beautiful as always

havent been to china... would you recommend the shang hai and guang zhou?

i want beijing, but it's another side of china.. damn it


the egg tart, price ok, only 2+ nzd/ tart... here 3x the price...

Taiwan Beef Noodle origin from Chongqing.

I didn't hurt anyone and so my conscience is clear. I got sabotaged and hurt by a number of people in SG.

我没有害人，反而我被人害到我说不出话来！Including some officers working in the Police.

I am not exactly an extroverted kinda personality, you can read from this article that I'm a reserved person, not inclined to chit chat or talk much about my feelings etc.

I think those few ICA officers who had interviewed me must have felt that I am definitely an EVIL and wicked ex police officer??

Sigh.....

but what is your crime on record?

so you are a malaysian who has been barred entering singapore? you worked there before?

I don't know or remember what crime I had committed.

Yes, I worked for the Singapore Police Force from the years 1995-2000.

Your pictures maka me dizzy.

Why ah? 😂

damn... it's the past, now you are doing ok?

Food wise, Macau is better than HK.

Personal opinion saja. Portuguese tart, Portuguese cuisine.. etc etc. Michelin gelato.. lady M.. countless of good food there compared to HK.

Not really.

I need a job.

Can you help?

Thanks in advance.

🙏🙏

do i look like ms tan, head of hr, training, hiring, and development?

Other part, anything at China are welcome

Ok.

Nevermind 🙏🙏

kek, macaroni clear soup see already langsung no interest to order

yes, quite exp compared to china, comparable to spending for food in JP.
their food service literally gg kenot pakai like your whole family owe them money..
cloth, etc. shopping still ok, many friendly

Can recommend the good ones so when I go back again won’t go holand?

Typhoon come flight also no fly liao

Haven’t been to Shanghai, but I enjoyed guangzhou a lot, it was a fun one to spend 5 days there

Beijing also good but China all the city sibeh big, need many days to explore..need many days to walks air quality in Beijing is shit compared to Guangzhou and Shenzhen.

I think canton food will suit MYsian better
