Wing Wah Noodle Shop (永華麵家) @ Wan Chai 灣仔

Other than egg tarts, Hong Kong is also famous for wonton noodles. Wonton noodles in Hong Kong is different because there’s no ‘alkaline’ taste. There are many noodle shops all over Hong Kong. Mak’s Noodles, Lau Sum Kee Noodles, Mak Man Kee Noodle Shop and Wing Wah Noodle Shop are some of the well-known noodle shops serving really good wonton noodle.

This blog is a platform to share what I love in life: food (eat), travel (play), photography (art) and life (thoughts and ideas). With passion for food, I share my foodie adventures and indulgences here. “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”

Traveling makes us a better human being as we recognise the similarities and celebrate the differences of cultures between where we travel to and where we come from. “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”

Photography do more than just capturing the best moments in our lives; they also help us tell our life stories. “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
