Taoheung group is my favourite restaurant group in Hong Kong. I specially like the set meals at Ying (迎) at Nathan Road and at Chung Cuisine (锺菜) at Times Square Causeway Bay.They have ongoing promotions, and we managed to book a table for 3pax at Taohueng @ Carnavorn Road Tsimshatsui during our recent visit (they will NOT accept table booking on the same day but you can go at 6pm OR 9pm to queue up for the dinner OR supper promotions – they even have an electronic colour-coded queue system for 2pax, 3-4pax, 5-6pax, 7-8pax etc, more sophisticated than the banks..lol..). There was NO service to talk about here (well at least for the 1/2hr starting from 6pm where there seemed to be orderly mayhem!). I had tried previously another of their restaurants Pier 88 (稻香超级渔港) during the promotion hour and to their credit service there was ok despite the mad rush at 6pm.We had the incredible value promotion in the picture above=HK$99 for a steamed live garoupa (I estimated about 700g-800g) PLUS a platter comprising suckling pig, roast duck, char siew & soy chicken! The normal price for the tiger garoupa alone (w/o promotion) was HK$238!The steamed garoupa was very good, which was like “routine” in Hong Kong.The suckling pig platter – what can I say? every item was very good even including the black fungus, which was crunchy with a touch of sesame oil. Not sure the normal price for such a platter, but I would gladly pay HK$99 or more for the platter alone.You kind of “have to” order 例汤 (soup of the day) when in a cantonese restaurant in Hong Kong, so we dutifully ordered one on the menu=chicken & fish maw (花胶) soup. It was a big pot costing HK$108. It was good but NOT great! Auntie Bes can make just as good soup at home. The one we had at Lei Garden (利苑) Time Square – which is famous for its soup – the day before, a smaller pot at HK$88 was by far the better.& when in Hong Kong, you “have to” order vegetables. We had choy sum with moi choy (梅菜菜心). It was wonderful! The very satisfying dinner for 3 of us came to HK$331 (which already included 10% service charge), like S$53 nett! I can certainly do this every time

大过年的差点被服务员骂到哭，只因唤服务员给水喝，许久无人理，一家人好口干，只得自己去取水壶，准备倒好水再放回去，谁知刚拿到水壶服务员就跟上来，开始教训我，一大家子坐在那里被她教训，凶的厉害！理解你们很忙，但是大过年的至于吗！

是日送别Fab, 友人最爱火锅, lunch也来到稻香打边炉. 已订枱, 周末下午一时不用等候便可入座. 此时段没有什么优惠, 故只点了少量食物便算了. 汤底点选了沙嗲, 颇惹味, 也不太辣. 不错. 食物有: 芝士肠, 秀珍菇, 唧鱼面, 黑豚肉, 虾丸, 豆腐. 各样食品也尚算不俗, 其中觉得秀珍菇跟沙嗲真的很夹, 淡淡的菇吸收了浓味的沙嗲, 笔者差不多一个人也可完成一整碟, 可想而知有多吸引. 另唧鱼面的口感也不错, 也颇弹牙, 味道也可以, 较想像中的好. 这样又过了三小时了, 期待友人快点回来encore火锅!

寒冷天气下，最好就系打边炉。先来个醉鸡锅汤底加$1 肥牛，说实话，鸡真的没半点酒味，而且只有半只鸡，不值这价钱。 但最估不到$1肥牛数量也不少。 当然，雪得太够，牛肉也没肉味吧！脆肉鲩完全不脆口。 饺子、云吞皮薄涵靓。鲜虾不鲜甜，还要很细只。丸类没特别。值得一试就是烧鹅，皮脆肉香，还有肉汁流出呢！
