春夏秋冬火鍋   ( Relocated:  )

back in hongkong again! this time round, i decided to bring mum along to go try a typical hongkong style hotpot.

it really reached a shocking level for me (us!) to be exposed to such an environment. i don't mean it in a bad way because as a tourist, this place showed me the other side of hong kong! the rowdiness, the 麻甩佬s & the use of the unpolished cantonese language...all i can say that it is classic typical hong kong!

honestly all 3 of us were so tensed & uneasy until the food came...it instantly distracted us!

i started off ordering just 枝竹魭鱼煲 because i wasn't sure of the portion. from what i saw from other tables, the pots are all quite big and it was only 3 of us. so only when we were confident that we could finish the food then we ordered the extras.

the 魭鱼煲 soup base was rich & tasty. the fish was reasonably fresh. the extras ordered was also generous in portions & fresh! although the beef 英花牛肉 didn't look too consistent (half plate perfect marbled meat & the other half has no marble). the rest of my orders were alright.

there was 1 thing that i refused to think too much - it was the soya sauce they provided because it looked stale with a layer of oily substance on top. the chilli soaked in it also didn't look good but since cut chilli (optional minced garlic) is part of our diet (from where i come from), i just have to dip my food into that soya sauce...with the freshly cut ones that was chargeable.

a lot of times, when a place serves good & reasonably priced food, there will always be a minus on their hygiene, service &/or environment. this applies to almost everywhere. for 春夏秋冬, if only they could clean the tables with more effort & with a cleaner table cloth...

I think it's little expensive, all the hot pot one dish need $20-$30
but the foods are fresh, tastes good
Service ok....No nedd for waiting
Commendable is the type of seafood here quite a lot, you can ordering before you go to choicethe seafood....ensure the seafood are fresh !!
