siu yuk – roast pork
The day after my cousin’s wedding – and our final day in Hong Kong – we got together with all the rellies and had a big yum cha lunch at Dragon King in the World Trade Centre, the final in a string of many indulgent meals we’d had. If they read this, I wanted to thank my Aunty Liz and Uncle Jon who fed us so ferociously well over the weekend.
Since it’s a Friday, I’m not going to say much except this, people, this is how you do yum cha porn:
har cheong – prawns in steamed rice wrap
deep fried tofu
char siu bao – BBQ pork buns
char siu – BBQ pork
honeyed lotus root
battered calamari rings
siu mai – pork & prawn dumplings
xiao long bao – soup dumplings
ingredients from a crab, chicken & coconut soup
melon & prawn stir fry
loh bak goh – turnip cake – one of the best I’ve ever had!
soft shelled crab with crispy noodles
whole roast chicken
greens!
lo mai gai – glutinous rice with Chinese sausage and mushrooms
fried sesame pastry with honey
That’ll be all! Have a fabulous weekend!

WOW oh WOW is all I can say. That is unlike ANYTHING I’ve ever seen! The roast pork and the fried tofu look good – infact it all looks GREAT. Did someone eat the chooks head?
This all looks absolutely amazing! The crab and noodles looks particularly fab, with the noodles soaking up the sauce. BTW – what’s the topping on the siu mai?
Stop it girl! I cannot handle yum cha food porn when I can’t have any. I start climbing the walls π

PHWOAR. Those siu mai especially look great.

Everything looks amazing – particularly loving the look of the pork and the crab soup. Jealous, jealous, jealous.
