Yuyu Sushi
3 Ship Street, Wan Chai
Hong Kong, China(click for more Yuyu sushi restaurant food photos)
Tuna sushi seared with a dash of sweet Korean sauce makes this dish a winner. The Korean sauce seared tuna should be considered Yuyu Sushi’s signature dish.
The squid sushi and raw shrimp have sea sweet tones.
I think that the bbq eel is a bit firm for my taste since I prefer eel that literally melts in my life. With a nice modern decor and attentive service, YuYu sushi is a great sushi destination.

Like a well produced movie, Bloom is a combination of an action adventure (food) to romantic comedy (ambiance). Side actors include nutty tones from mac and cheese and winning the Oscar is the pork chop.
It is not cliche, you really get what you pay for. Great execution + just quality ingredients. Also, pay attention to their knife skills in their food. With one bite, the welcoming juices marry so well tender meat.
Great places to impress a client or to play footsie with your date.

I dine out a lot especially when guests are coming into Hong Kng from out of town. But after a bit of trekking down the road of gluttony, my body tells me to tango into a retreat.
When this happens, I dash toward a vegetarian restaurant.
Veggie SF in Hong Kong
Veggie SF is charming starting with a decor. Growing up in San Francisco, the street signage and collectables creates a cozy living experience. The owners are super friendly and the service is attentive.
But after all, I was there for the detox experience. One bite into my burger made from beets, the fresh sprouts and earth tones from the meat patty made me realize how great it was to taste what I was eating.
Fries round out this highly recommended this.
Plated with a triple criss cross stance, the vegetarian satay is a good appetizer dish.

So a visit to Happy Veggie was a great pick. Fresh vibrant dishes with all you can refill rice. During lunch, it can be hard finding a seat so get here early or a bit latter.

The British have not been known for their culinary arts but the food served at the Globe made me think twice. Patrons will be surprised by their large living room space after hip hopping through their small entrance doors.
At first glance, the wooden decor makes the restaurant a genuine place to relax and chill resembling a welcoming living room space.
As for the food, the chefs are clearly well trained with great execution include knife skills, vibrant ingredients, and flavors.
With a hint of wine flavor, the beef pot pie with buttery mash potatoes is a great dish. The aromatic notes from the curry chicken served with roti is another winner. The sauce is rather mild.
Fanned in a nice arrangement, the seared duck displays savory tones that pair well with a bed of greens.
With ample space, attentive service, I would journey to the Globe for must eat comfort food.

Located on the busy streets of Wan Cha long the tram, Ginger Bakery has a clean simple decor yet they failed to deliver the basic cafe dishes.
Their cheese croisant lacked character and filling. Let me expand. Absent were nutty tones from the goodness of cheese. Additionally, where was my flaky crust.
The fruit salad was totally a miss. The fruit were crispy but it was because it was not ripe. The taste was totally bland. The manager remarked that they are more known for their cakes.
The truth is that they need to taste every dish before they serve it to their customers.
Thankfully Janice Fong the Managing director refunded the order.
So Ginger Bakery with great service and charming decor has promise but just needs to taste test all their dishes.

All you can eat dim sum for about $9USD around $70 HKD. Often times, quality is compromised but not in this situation. Known for their hot pot with aromatic soup base, Little Sheep Hot Pot located in high traffic Causeway Bay.
I was surprised to find a great assortment of dim sum selection that provided an array of pleasant notes. For sweet earth tones, the egg plant paired with an inviting sauce.
So simply a fleet of dim sum.
Shrimp dumpling, curry cuttlefish, just a tower of stacked dim sum.
Don’t hold back and let your belt loose.

For the night, I was very pleased with their friend daikon ball (fully texture with daikon on the inside). However, I was disappointed with their egg yolk shrimp. The size of the shrimps was small and lacked nutty savory tones I was expecting from the savory yolk.
I advise getting the shrimp with yolk without the shells.
The shredded chicken in rice noodle mixed with peanut sauce is all about chill temperature contrast.
Crystal Jade is a Shanghai restaurant that affirms that restaurant chains can have consistency throughout their locations.
With multiple locations, I find that the Crystal Jade in Causeway Bay MTR to be crammed so try the one in the World Trade Center.

Taste Thai delivered another great meal. After dashing out from the Wan Chai MTR subway station, Taste Thai is located on the second floor and is truly a hidden gem.
Look around and you will find authentic Thai grocery shops but just glance slightly toward the sky and you will locate the signage Taste Thai.
Green Cottage Vietnamese Restaurant cooks up memorable five spice chicken with sweet and savory tones all married into one. A quick dunk into fish sauce just ask a refreshing tart zing to the dish.
One slight bite, the crispy Vietnamese eggroll shatters and taste best wrapped with fresh lettuce creating a contrats between cool leaves and hot egg roll.
Skip the Chinese dishes such as sweet and sour fish but order dishes that are distinctive for the Vietnamese cuisine.

I had Pizza Hut a few days ago but simply craved gourmet pizza on a Friday night. Pizza Express filled my craving and more. The manager working at the Pizza Express served up great hospitality.
Paper thin cheese pizza was remarkable. Remarkable means something worth talking about. The foundation is the sweet and slightly tart tomato sauce with strong inviting nutty notes from the cheese.
The seafood spaghetti with small shrimp and other seafood served as a great next dish. One thing I did not like was the giant poster of a crammed apartment building of towering building in Hong Kong. Simple decreased my appetite and was just bad taste.
This London based pizza restaurant chain is a solid choice.

Taking off my shoe anxiously like a little kid, I dashed over to the tatami and started gazing at the mile long menu. For just around $25 USD, the all you can order makes eating a pleasure.
I don’t have hold back on what to order.
Must eat items include everything toro aka tuna belly. Toro has butter like texture married with sea sweet taste. Fantastic.
Toro handroll, toro sushi. Give me everything toro.
Another item worth ordering are the uni (sea urchin) hand rolls. Ordering a fleet of nigiri sushi just made my day. For dishes that warm the heart try the shabu shabu.
With tender cheeks, the salmon fish head is also a great order. Service is attentive and great place for Sunday brunch.
Also, all you can drink soda and beer is included.
