First thing in the 2nd morning of our Hong Kong trip, Glenn and I had planned to visit Lin Heung. So on our way there in a cab (take the subway, its much faster and alot cheaper) we decided to ask the nice cabby where to eat in and around Central. He then recommended us the Roast Goose from Yung Kee.
And while having our dim sum breakfast, the patrons that shared the same table as us talked about Yung Kee as well, which stoked our curiosity even more to try this restaurant.
Yung Kee is a Chinese-Cantonese restaurant that is well-known with the locals for serving roast goose and their Cantonese dishes. And its generally a suitable place for families to have their dinner or lunch here.
Need I add that, Yung Kee was awarded 1 Michelin Star in the The Michelin Guide – Hong Kong / Macau 2010? That, alone, should be reason enough to plan for a visit to Yung Kee.
This is a revisit to Sage Restaurant, along Mohd Sultan Road. My post on my previous visit to Sage can be found at: http://www.hungryepicurean.com/2010/01/sage-restaurant/
I was pretty pleased with the service and food on my previous lunch visit, that I decided to return to Sage for dinner, with heightened expectations! Joining me for this dinner was the very lovely Elaine from divinejoybites.
I wanted to visit a Japanese restaurant while I was in Hong Kong. Flipping through the Tatler dining guide showed a recommendation to NOBU. I was practically staying within a 10 minute radius of Hotel Inter-Continental, I thought, why not give NOBU a try?
A partnership between Chef Nobu Matsuhisa and Hollywood actor Robert DeNiro, NOBU is synonymous with innovative new-style Japanese cuisine. Opened in 2006, NOBU InterContinental Hong Kong was Nobu’s first restaurant in Asia (ex Japan) and is among 21 NOBU and 4 Matsuhisa restaurants currently in operation around the world.
For the inquisitive, Chef Nobu Matushisa’s profile can be found on Wikipedia.
