Lau Fau Shan, in Hong Kong, as long been famous for its seafood. You could find a lot of comments, feedback on web. But let me today just introduce you some special thing a tourist would be interested in.
那邊有個市集, 其實是一條巷仔, 沿路有許多食海鮮的店, 乾貨店等。
There is a market, which has a lot of seafood restaurant and sea-products shop.
新鮮的龍蝦, 多大隻!
fresh lobster!! see how big it is! and other sea-food
乾貨店, 有不同的醬油, 花膠之類的東西賣。
this shop is selling different kinds of dried sea food. They are good for cooking and some are great for soup making.
咸蛋魚和臘味都是我好喜歡的!
These may look awkward to you, but they are really nice! And the are very salty!
蠔就是這樣來的了!! 新解的蠔肉就是在右手邊這堆"泥"中來!
People are taking out the mussels from the shell.
茶果, 十元四個!
They are somehow called tea dumpling. HK$10 for 4, quite a bargain.
砵仔榚
some kind of Cantonese cake which i don't know their name. Probably you've tried them in China town if you are from New York or Vancouver.
蕃薯乾
Dried sweet potato
龍鬚糖
Dragon Beard Candy, they will stick on your teeth._. and if you buy them in the airport, it will cost 10 times more!
麥芽糖夾餅, 立即買了來吃!^^
Maltose Biscuit, tasty snack that every children in Hong Kong loves it.
鳳凰卷等小食
even more snacks
and more...
周潤發也慕名而來?
Chow Yun Fat has been here too?
走到市集的盡頭, 就是美麗的海景, 可以看見在建築的深圳灣公路大橋。
When you talk till the end of the market, a bonus nice view for you for photo taking. The building bridge and the beautiful sunset...
而於海鮮好不好吃, 我覺得是不錯的, 當然我沒有吃過所有的店, 有機會多吃幾家以後而跟大家分享。內地的朋友, 逛得太多商場的話, 去去這些地方, 你可以感受到香港的另一面, 且是獨有的一面, 不一定是金碧輝煌的地方才值得去。去旅行除了購物, 不就是想放鬆心情, 感受和認識不同地方的習俗文化嗎?
This is definately a special place of Hong Kong, to see how people in the fishery industry live. I guess the HK tourism board could advertise more about these special side of Hong Kong. Moreover, the HK citizen should treasure the things we have and preserve them to maintain a sustainable development of Hong Kong.

My favorite Chinese New Year food (though you sometimes find it all year round) is the Dragon Beard Candy, an ancient Chinese Emperor’s Dessert. It’s made into very sweet thin strands and sometimes filled with peanuts.
回覆刪除If you’ve never tried it, you simply have to! The only place I know to find this online is http://www.geocities.jp/family_hong_kong/English/Dragon_Bread_Candy_index.htm .
