Beijing - Nov 08 (Part 4)
Went to Forbidden City, the local agent made special arrangement for us. Afternoon tea at the Forbidden City Royal Kitchen, ok, what used to be the Royal Kitchen, which is converted to a gallery and could be hired for private lunch or afternoon tea.

Westin Chaoyang.
Kiwi infused water in the room
Chocolates and cookies - you can see an empty spot on the plate (I was very hungry too hungry and could not even wait to finish taking photo before eating)
The hotel showed us their meeting rooms, set up to showcase how the various layouts and what they can do. They even set up snacks to show the variety and how the coffee break stations are like for the actual events

Beijing - Nov 08 (part 1)
Was invited by Starwood (who operates the hotel brands: St Regis, W, Westin, Luxury Collections, Sheraton, Four Points and Aloft) to visit Beijing and look at their 6 properties. Felt like a refugee, having to change 3 hotels (1 each night) and inspected a total of 6 hotels.
Going to share some food shots taken during the trip. If you are looking for traditional Chinese food or exotic stuff, you will be dissapointed as all my meals were hosted in restaurants within the hotels we visited.
Dinner at Four Points by Sheraton
3 kinds of appetizer, pardon the messy BG. Those are the condiments for the next shot

Hong Kong - Nov 08 (Part 4 - final)
After 糖朝, my boss wanted to eat sotong balls. We headed back to Causeway Bay, so that at the same time, we can orientate the girls on the locations of some of the eateries and shopping locations. This joint called 文辉 is really popular with their sotong/cuttlefish balls (basically all type of balls).
八宝汤 8 treasures soup
Other than this, we also ordered crispy fish skin and 腐皮卷.
We were all very tired by then, but all felt heaty and some were worried they may fall sick. I had a client presentation the next day, so we had to find something.
Round the corner, is 海天堂，great place for 凉茶 龟苓膏。

Hong Kong - Nov 08 (Part 3)
Day 2 dinner was a quick bite with my boss at 富记 in Mongkok. Another great place for porridge and noodles. Their roast goose is also very good. We had roast goose, glutunous rice with preserved meat, deep fried spare ribs with salt and pepper, water cress soup with spare parts. Too hungry, the joint was too cramp and too tired to take photos.
Wanted to eat desserts, so we arranged to meet another colleague (Rain) who was in HK for holidays together with her friends.
As they had not eaten dinner at almost 9pm and complained that they have not eaten any good dim sum, we brought them to 糖朝 in Tsimshatsui.
炸两
egg tarts with birdnest toppings
Signature dish from 糖朝. Can eat as dessert or as a staple in place of rice or noodles.
That's not the end of the evening. Stay tuned to find out how we ended the evening. ;)

Hong Kong - Nov 08 (part 1)
Dunno where to start. So looked at my archives and decided that should start with some overseas stuff.
Went to Hong Kong last November, it was my 6th trip to Hong Kong within 12 months... sianzzz beyond imagination. This trip was for an inspection, a presentation to my HK office and a few client meetings. The only upside was going around eating with my boss!
Late late lunch on Day 1
Roast duck noodle 烧鸭濑粉(they were out of goose) from Maxim Food Court
Our HK colleagues brought us to eat Hotpot for dinner on Day 1. Didn't shoot. After dinner, did a bit of shopping and then before heading back to hotel, we decide to whack some porridge.
鳞鱼球粥from 利园 at Lockhart Road, Causeway Bay. This is one of the best places for porridge and wanton noodles

Now Open!
After weeks of consideration and procrastination, and encouragement from HisFoodBlog, Grumpy has finally decided to start a blog to share his food photos accumulated over the past 2 years.
As Grumpy can hardly write to save his life, this will mainly be a photoblog. Will try to provide some genuine comments on the food as much as possible. Feel free to comment on the photos or the food or the venues.
First up, a fruit platter from June office birthday party. Meanwhile, I need to plan what should I be posting next...
