余均益 (Yu Kwen Yick) is arguably one of the food ingredient culture icons of Hong Kong. While it may not be a worldwide recognized brand (like the dreadful Srriracha chili sauce manufactured in Southern California, famous with Vietnamese pho restaurants and alike), it is a vastly superior product and has a very loyal following. Those who are serious chili sauce heads, will have their eyes lit up if you mention 余均益, and they will know that you know your stuff. You can make friends just by talking about this brand of chili sauce! This is how influential the product is, whether you are living locally, or coming from overseas like me.Getting here is pretty easy. The best way for me at least, is to take the "ding ding" tram and get off Eastern Street. Walk up about two blocks (yes quite the uphill battle!) then turn right on 2nd street. It is best to call ahead to make sure they are open before you go, just to be safe. They are closed Mondays and I remember calling on a Tuesday once when nobody answered.The storefront is very small and is basically a showroom with a cashier. The shelves basically have a few of their standard offerings. In addition to their signature chili sauce, you can also buy a few other varieties of their sauces, including chili oil, and chili oil with chili flakes. There is a sample jar of 苏梅酱 (plum sauce) that would be fantastic for dipping roast duck or roast goose, but was unavailable for purchase during my visit (the young owner himself recommended that it could be added to claypot rice!).The younger generation owner is a really cool and helpful guy, and we had a great chat about local food, who also recommended that I go check out 波记. The level of customer service and interaction here from a small family run business, to me is out of this world. They gave me excellent advice in terms of storage, transportation (as I was taking their products back home out of the country), and even suggestions on how to apply some of the sauces for optimal enjoyment. We also spoke at length about how I wished it were possible to have their products imported overseas, but the logistics would not work out.There are not many restaurants that carry 余均益 but I have had the pleasure of trying some local dishes with it and have gotten some friends addicted to it as well. Lau Sam Kee in Sham Shui Po has large bottles available, so you can squirt a few dollops of the stuff with prawn roe noodles to kick things up a notch. And as Chinese New Year is coming, this stuff would be sexcellent with turnip cake 萝卜糕.You will have to wait until after Chinese New Year before the shop restocks pocket sized and larger sized bottles. In the meantime, the medium sized bottles are $35 each. The larger gift boxes contain two medium sized bottles of the signature chili sauce plus a different kind of chili sauce in a jar.

今日的苹果日报副刊，有余均益的专访，小弟因在某个地盘内，写过一篇有关余均益的文章，正因如此，负责这篇文章的记者，也找我来访问一下。我说余均益配炒牛河，与炒面是最好，好像，忘了还有煎萝卜糕！本来在住所附近，有三数间办馆，酱园，仍有余均益出售，但现今这些地方还在，可惜是再没有余均益卖，要我老远走到去西环本店买。随身物品除了锁匙，银包，手机，耳机之外，你们或许会带白花油傍身，我就少不得一支细瓶的余均益，在我皮袋里面，尤其是当你预计，会在当日吃炒面，牛河，萝卜糕。。不要说我奄尖，当你吃过老余，像与一名近乎完美的女生交往过，之后对其他女生失去兴趣，回头太难了，现今用余均益的地方越来越少，没办法，成本贵，要自救，还是自己带辣酱。若然，萝卜糕，炒面，炒河本身质素平平，凭著余均益，也可以过关，像一名硬功骑师，死马当活马骑，那么，萝卜糕本身的质素已经很好的话，便成为完美组合了。早前女友亲手造的萝卜糕，在朋友家中开派对时，与大家分享，香甜的萝卜丝，与余均益爱得死去活来，不能自拔，爱情，就是如此地盲目。正如我对余均益一样。苹果副刊专访上，少东其中一段说话：「超市有所谓霸权主义，他们总要我（在超市）减价，但杂货店也要揾食呀！若杂货店比超市贵，谁去杂货店呢！结果我做了一个商业上很难理解的决定，就是拉倒了交易，暂时都没有超市代理我们的产品。超市还有很多上架费、Eye Level（成人视线高度）一个价钱，减了价又要跟他对分……如果纯商业决定，这决定是错的！」这份不为五斗米而折腰，与大集团抗衡的高尚情操，值得比个Like啦。

二月中旬‧阴天早上行经这里，顺手买了支辣椒酱。转头去了茶樯吃煎肠粉，正是应用的时候。够辣劲，香，一点酸味，还有蒜香，是煎肠粉的最好朋友。至于同场买的另一瓶辣椒油，就会之后才出场。
