After a long and uncomfortable winter, Vasco is out for his adventure again! This year Alice is organizing an 'ice-cafe' (冰室) tour. Ice-cafe is a Hong Kong style diner. We decided on ice-cafe to try different old-fashioned Hong Kong 'fastfood'. Many ice cafes are 40+ years old!
First stop: China Cafe in Mongkok. It is tucked away in the middle of the Mongkok wet market. The food is great, Alice had a snow veggie/meat fried noodle (very yummy), PB had French toast, BBQ pork/egg sandwich, and 'Phoenix Egg Custard', KB had fried rice. Alice had to say that the yingyang was not that great.
But the 'Phoenix Egg Custard' was really fun. You take a steaming hot bowl of Bird's Custard, throw in a raw egg, and you have a great bowl of 'Phoenix Egg Custard'! Vasco loves the whole place with the colorful wall tiles! And he could pretend that he was in Johnnie To's PTU.
