to go to Cheung Chau, one has to take a ferry at Central Pier.
there are several piers.
Cheung Chau one is pier No. 5
Central Pier =D
Took a fast ferry to Cheung Chau, the ride was about half an hour or so, $25.80 per adult.
the slow one is of course cheaper, longer ride.
didn't want to waste much time so spent a bit more. since was on a holiday, so just closed one eye =P
can see what i seen from HK TVB dramas. haha!
was very hot upon arrival, cannot stand it so bought a hat.
my favourite selfie of the year XD XD sorry if its an eyesore for you =P
took a bit of time to walk around.
it was near lunch but wasn't hungry yet due to the dim sum feast in the morning.
walked by this 金毛鸡蛋仔 eggettes stall *dont know if its famous in Cheung Chau, saw some articles on the board*, really really couldn't resist, so bought a share. $15
crunchy on the outside, fluffy inside, taste not so bad =)
kept walking and walking and walking. to explore part of the island.
and because its lunch time, it was like a bit weird if i didn't take lunch, although i was still full and just had the eggettes. it really felt very weird!!!!
went back to the hats stall asked the boss what's nice around there. he recommended seafood, but i was alone. so he introduced 亚伦冰室
spent some time searching for it because the logo does not stand out, in fact i passed by it few times =.=
lunch time, so it was crowded.
asked the waitress to recommend, and she recommended fish fillet vermicelli soup
yuzu tea, love it, its nice =D
there the fish fillet vermicelli soup.
the fish fillets were.................. awesomeeeeesee.... very fish and chewy. love it!!!! and please dont compare to those here in singapore and also malaysia, even nicer than my mum's. *please dont tell her XD XD *
a total of $41. sort of okay, worth the price. of not much difference than here in singapore.
and i continued exploring the island.
clouds looked ominous, went back to the hats shop see if they sell umbrella, the friendly boss laughed and said no. awwwww... but he's really a friendly boss! asked if i had my lunch =D
got an umbrella and continued the journey =P
bought some dried goods from 大妹海味 for my mum. dont know if things there really good, but its a fishing village there, really dunno if theres any difference from kuching one or not leii =.=
price doesn't differ by lot, slightly cheaper than in sg though.
passed by this 时来食坊
ngaiti seriously my tummy didn't have much space for more food but when i saw the charcoal grilled cuttlefish i simply couldn't resist =/
and get a bottle of seaweed drink $20. four pieces of small cuttlefish $35
the cuttlefish was really................. aweeeeesomeeeeeeeeee awwwww
this stall sells kuihs and etc.
should be nice i think, read from web one.
but my tummy really couldn't fit anything else, no matter how much i felt like eating @_@
some more was raining..
hid in Eggenberg cafe of a B&B there, near the 东湾沙滩, and waited for the rain to stop.
what a peach punch $35 -_- really bo bien ._.
and finally rain stopped =)
too bad, didn't get extra extra clothing and sandals, else can walk about the beach =/
the beauty of Cheung Chau =)
the weather was unstable, rain sun rain sun, quite a spoiler, couldn't stand it so took ferry back to HK at 245pm.
went back to guest hotel to clean up myself and rest.
dragged until dinner time only went out. seriously i wasn't hungry at all!!!!
really felt sorry for myself if i skipped any meal while at such a food haven place XD
asked the guest hotel boss' wife if nearby has any good food or not.
the riot still on going, which actually ruined my plan. many bus services were disrupted, means, the MTR will be packed like sardine can, already tasted the pack while on my way home from Central. couldn't stand it, with rude people there. so forced to change my plan, could only walked to nearby places, which doesn't require public transport. sien =.=
boss' wife introduced claypot rice at Temple St, which is about less than 20mins walk.
there are two quite famous clay pot rice, one is 兴记, one is 四季. but seems to have several 兴记, dont know if they are the same or is there any counterfeit ones, so chose 四季 instead, since only got one shop =.=
quite a queue actually. chose 腊肠滑鸡煲 $44. if in group can have side dishes also. ok lar, not bad, as normal? or could be i dont know what is good claypot rice. haha! cincai lar...
didn't have any alternative plan for the night, as ruined by the demonstration. so just anyhow look look see see while on the way back to guest hotel. sigh!
