蓮園甜品

該沒多少機會再臨跑馬地,決定獨自去吃甜店。 傳統的糖水店,基本上都是傳統糖水,但搶眼的是雪蛤或燕窩甜品。 我此等平民當然只點了 蓮茸西米焗布甸。 見其他食評說這店用微波爐翻熱布甸,但我這次所見的是在蒸爐內取出的。 甜度適中挺好吃,但以這個份量售$28是偏貴了。 註:備八達通付款方式

上環-利香茶居

地址:上環 皇后大道中345號上環市政大廈2樓熟食中心CF4號舖 電話:2850 6831 難得平日放假,便到上環熟食中心飲早茶。 雖說早茶,但我們近10時才到達,熟食中心人煙稀少,找坐位沒難度。 抵達後,即看到叔叔在包雞扎,似乎大部份點心都是自家製而非由內地工場製成的。 坐下後,叔叔便拿餐具、茶及餐牌給我們。別以為熟食中心只提供茶餐廳那些茶,它跟茶樓無異,可選茶種的。 看著餐牌只寫著全部點心$17-22,真的不知道每款點心價錢,不過價錢合理,不須斤斤計較。 我們點了雞扎,煎芋頭糕蘿蔔糕及蝦餃。 看著叔叔在包雞扎,即點一籠。這兒的雞扎餡與別不同,炸腐皮包著的是南瓜,及數件雞。 煎芋頭糕是必點的,除了煎得香脆外,此款芋頭糕亦非常見款式,真材真料,只用芋頭絲及調味料制成。 雖然沒有其他臘腸或臘肉,但味道調配得非常好,緃使只由芋頭制成亦美味非常。 一碟煎糕有三件,我們要求把其中一件換作蘿蔔糕。 可惜蘿蔔糕沒有什麼特別,不試亦可。 蝦餃的皮實在太易爛了,就算小心翼翼地用筷子夾起亦不太可能完整放入口內。 若有超人的技巧完整地把它放入口內,那蝦餃就像小籠包一樣,超多汁。 蝦夠爽,就差在餃皮那裏。 雖然好吃,但較油膩,吃一次便好了。

Airbnb x 黃秋生:在途上找個家-發現初心

圖片
近日發現黃秋生幫Airbnb拍了一個廣告。 該廣告內,黃先生在日本的民宿有極愉快的體驗。 不景是黃秋生嘛,待遇一定比我們佳。 我近來也從同事口中得知Airbnb的經驗不錯,後來便試試經它訂了兩家日本民宿,感覺也很好。 其實用租酒店房的錢來租住民宿也不錯,同樣的價錢或是更便宜的價錢便有機會住到一整間屋,幸運的話更會遇到好的民宿主人給你介紹附近好玩值去的地方,能認試他們的風土人情。 只以便用以下這條link在Airbnb註冊帳戶及訂房價格達港幣$585便可節省港幣$155! www.airbnb.com.hk/c/cyany1?s=8 Airbnb教學: http://aabbgotravel.blogspot.hk/2016/01/airbnb-155.html 第一間是在九州阿蘇火山附近的民宿,因我們的旅伴中有人行動不便,民宿主人很貼心地為我們換了一間不用走樓梯便可使用廁所的私人房間。 九州阿蘇火山附近的民宿: https://www.airbnb.com.hk/rooms/4987379 第二間是在九州福岡的民宿,雖然未見過民宿的主人,但屋內一應俱全,乾淨舒適。 因為沒有接待處,我們應民宿主人的信息在信箱找了鎖鑰進內放下行李便去外出了。 後來民宿主人Send Message來說我們入錯屋,誤進了她的工作室,但她已把我們的行李搬到我們的房子去。 我們晚上回去時,看到工作室有人,他向我們簡單解釋了屋內的設備便離開了。 九州福岡的民宿: https://www.airbnb.com.hk/rooms/5733450

大坑-BB Ramen/ NAGI Ramen/ 凪 + Lab Made 分子雪糕專門店 Lab Made Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream Laboratory

圖片
BB Ramen/ NAGI Ramen/ 凪 地址:大坑京街 3 號 Lab Made 分子雪糕專門店 Lab Made Liquid Nitrogen Ice Cream Laboratory 地址:大坑布朗街 6 號地下 電話:9355 4476 我們1730左右在大坑尋找是晚晚餐好去處,途經這家拉麵店,注看一下餐牌。 原來拉麵點還未營業,店員到門前告訴我們1800才開門,嚷我們一會兒再來。 等候其間突然記起我還未嘗Lab Made 的火焰雪糕芝士撻,這次順路便去試試看。 這個撻每天限售400個,是日生期六近1800仍有貸,似乎熱潮已去,什或乎未有熱潮過。 這個 火焰雪糕芝士撻不能外賣, 很難想像每天有超過400個人來這裏這火焰雪糕芝士撻。 落單後等一會,看著店員用火把撻底燒熱,然後在芝士雪糕上撒糖,再用火槍把糖燒容,把該 芝士雪糕放在撻上 便成了。 店員再把這個撻放在紙杯上才給客人, 用上紙杯感覺沒那麼容易弄污手或衣物 。 其實沒有這個必要把,我把整個撻吃過後,那紙杯仍像新的一樣,掉時真覺浪費。 曲奇撻底很脆,如果牛油味濃一點或脆些會更佳。 因為用火槍燒過,所以吃時仍感到微熱。 接過 火焰雪糕芝士撻 時,雪糕表層始容了,因為有撻底存在,所以仍可把容掉的雪糕一同吃下,真開心。 表層的糖燒容後經雪糕冷卻後成了脆糖,就像焦糖燉蛋上的焦糖一樣。 火焰雪糕芝士撻 份量很小,但 味道及口感都屬中上水評,可一試。 吃過Lab Made 後回到凪,店內已有3枱客人。 坐下後,店員熱心向我們介紹該店的四款拉麵,並向我們解釋點餐紙上部份選項。 我們點了黑骨和綠骨。 黑骨湯底像墨汁一樣黑,超濃蒜味。 湯麵面放著一個豬肉球,店員說可把它弄碎在湯中,味道便佳。 的確,有肉碎的湯更香更濃,但若非把湯全都湯掉,部份肉碎便吃不到了 。 綠骨湯底是青綠色的,有濃濃的橄欖油味,很清新,很奇怪,很西式,很新奇。 兩個拉麵都有叉燒,雖然用上梅頭肉,但因咬口不錯,像吃豬頸肉一樣。 這家拉麵是我見過最幼的拉麵,但仍可掛湯,很利害呢! 聽到隔桌的家人讚溏心蛋好吃,但蛋非隨麵附上,我們沒有額外追加。 後來看到牆上寫著冇奈良入口的樽裝綠菜

Admission Fee

Should museums and art galleries be free of charge for the general public, or should a charge, even a voluntary charge, be levied for admittance? The recent decades have witnessed an increasing concern about applying entry fees to museums and art galleries. There are those who contend that museums and art exhibitions are places for cultural inheritance and charging an admission fee would discourage people from visiting them. Conversely, a staggering number of individuals claim that an admission would benefits museums’ maintenance work. In this sense, whether a charge levied for admission is beneficial or detrimental is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being deemed a place for preserving and transmitting cultural history, museums aim to attract a large number of visitors in order to widely spread the culture. Oddly enough, local inhabitants are deterred from entering those museums that with an entrance fee, irrespective of the value that the museums possess. Time and

旺角-炑八韓烤

圖片
地址:旺角彌敦道 620-628 號瓊華中心 5 樓 電話:2395 2730 星期六下午近1500來到餐廳,無需等位便可內進。 數款下午茶餐可供選揀,每款$48, 加$6可無限添飲特式飲料,另加$10送小食一款。 我們點了兩個下午茶餐,每枱也有一大樽檸檬水,而每個餐份量也很大,所以沒有加配飲料或小食。 下午茶套餐均送韓式清湯,泡菜,海帶及炑八沙律。 清湯感覺像味精湯,湯內有幾點肉碎,只吃了那一丁點肉,沒有把清喝完,飲檸檬水好像較健康。 泡菜不太辣,對我來說酸辣度剛好,很易入口。 海帶浸在水中,微酸,不錯。 米八沙律,沙律菜配適量麻醬。雖然味道很好,但份量超大,較難一個人完成。我看到待應收拾其他餐桌時把整碟沙律倒了,真的很浪費。 1號餐:雞肉年糕湯面 這個湯麵其實是雞肉公仔麵加上年糕片。 經醃制過的雞肉帶有點點甜味。 雖然年糕片本身沒有味道,但配上濃濃的味精湯,煙煙勒勒的,味道和口感都還可以。 至於那個公仔麵,份量頗多,但我吃不出它是否韓式公仔麵。 碗中還有一些菜配料,當中包括紫菜,這些紫菜碎好像由當作零食的韓國紫菜弄碎而來。 2號餐:鐵板LA骨飯 這個飯以鐵板上桌,熱呼呼的。 LA骨即牛仔骨,配上香濃黑椒味,就像吃Papper Lunch一樣。 本來很想試試$10的小吃,但這個套餐的份量就如晚餐一樣,已吃不下小吃了。 雖然$48一個下午茶餐是貴了一點,但以份量和款式來說,性價比超高。 唯一的缺點就是嘈了一點。

Space Technology

Governments spend billions of dollars on expensive space programs. Is it worth such substantial amounts in this direction? The last decades have witnessed increasing investments on space exploration. Nonetheless, there are those who contend that governments should utilise tax revenues on public affairs rather than funding space research. In this sense, whether utilising tax revenues on space projects is beneficial or detrimental is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being acknowledged pivotal to people’s day-to-day life, space technology has applications in diverse sectors, including broadcasting of television programmes, searching information on the internet and communicating by mobile phones which depend on man-made satellites; needless to say, it is the contribution of space science. Without space technology, there would be no man-made satellite orbiting in the space, which provides individuals with convenience in transferring information and in communication.

Nuclear technology

The threat of nuclear weapons maintains the world peace. Nuclear power provides cheap and clean energy. The benefits of nuclear technology far outweigh the disadvantages. Do you agree or disagree? The last decades have witnessed an increasing role in utilising nuclear technology. Being deemed a pollution-free and limitless energy, nuclear power is regarded as substitute of existing fossil-based energy. Nonetheless, there are those who contend that nuclear weapons pose an imminent threat to the global peace. In this sense, whether nuclear technology is beneficial or detrimental to mankind is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, nuclear weapons can lead to a total destruction of humanity. Interestingly enough, one of the remarkable observations coming from research findings is that the energy of explosion from sixteen nuclear bombs can eliminate all living species, and the radiation remained can last for hundreds of years. From another stance, nuclear technology has a

Olympic Games

Some people say that the Olympic Games don’t have a role to play in the 21 st century. Do you agree or disagree? Give your reason. In out times, an increasing popularity has been witnessed in international sport events, including the Soccer World Cup and the Olympic games. A staggering number of countries have applied to host these world-class events. Nonetheless, there are those who contend that the Olympic Games are losing its significance. In this sense, whether the Olympic Games still play a pivotal role in the twenty-first century is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, the Olympic Games are deemed to be spending the message of peace to the whole world. They provide countries with a platform not only for sports’ competition but also for improving international relationships. Time and again, other countries can learn and appreciate the tradition and culture of the host country which helps reducing political tensions amongst participating countries. From another

Position Gender

Many high-level positions in companies are filled by men even though the workforce in many developed countries is more than 50 per cent female. Companies should be required to allocate a certain percentage of these positions to women. To what extent do you agree? In our times, it is widely acknowledged that females outnumber males in a variety of positions in companies, except those senior positions. Nevertheless, a staggering number of individuals, particularly feminists, have challenged the inequality of female workers in pursuing high-level position. In this sense, whether companies should provide more high-level jobs for women is yet to be ascertained. Undoubtedly, the majority of senior positions are occupied by male staff. Time and again, the criteria to appoint those male employees to managerial positions may be based on their working ability. In like manner, senior positions in every successful company are taken by extraordinary employee irrespective of gender. Convers

Energy Sources

Governments should make more effort to promote alternative sources of energy. To what extend do you agree or disagree with this opinion? In our times, it is widely acknowledged that shortage of fossil-based fuels is anticipated. Furthermore, there are those, notably environmentalists, who contend that burning fossil fuels is the culprit of global warming. In this sense, whether governments’ policy on utilizing fossil fuels is beneficial or detrimental to the general public is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being deemed non-renewable, carbon-based energy sources including coals, oils and gases are inadequate in the foreseeable future. It is axiomatic that the cost of these sources will increase dramatically with the decreasing surplus. Without the inexpensive cost advantage, undoubtedly, governments’ preferences on promoting renewable energy sources are expected. From another stance, it is widely acknowledged that renewable energy sources are environmentally fri

Both Parent Work

In today’s competitive world, many families find it necessary for both parents to go out to work. While some say the children in these families benefit from additional income, others feel they lack support because of their parents’ absence. In our times, it is a common occurrence that both parents are far too preoccupied with their work in order to secure a livelihood. A staggering number of individuals claim that children benefit by additional income from their parents. Nonetheless there are those who contend that lack of parents’ guidance make children prone to detrimental peer pressure. In this sense, whether both parents should be gainfully employed is beneficial to their offspring is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being deemed privileged, students who mastered a musical instrument increased the likelihood of securing a place in renowned educational institutions. Nevertheless, it is by no means feasible for students to master a musical instrument with only a pa

Student Pressure

In some countries, young people have little leisure time and are under a lot of pressure to work hard in their studies. What do you think of the causes are this? What solution can you suggestion? In our times, it is widely acknowledged that students endure excessive pressure from their studies, including obtaining outstanding academic results. As a result, it becomes a trend that students devote a sizeable proportion of the time to studying rather than taking part in leisure activities, resulting in increased emotional stress. The objective of this essay is to evaluate the causative factors and its solutions. First and foremost, parents’ expectations are widely deemed to be one of the main stressors for teenagers. Time and again, securing a place in renowned educational institutions becomes children’s prime concerns which, incidentally, create plenty of pressure when they are afraid of failing their parents’ expectations. Subsequently, children become irritated when they have

Early Work or Education

Many people say that the only way to guarantee getting a good job is to complete a course of universities education. Others claim that it is better to start work after school and gain experience in the world of work. How far do you agree or disagree with the above views? In our times, it is widely deemed that job opportunities can be seized by means of an outstanding academic profile. Nonetheless, there are those who contend that experience outweigh academic achievements in certain cases. In this sense, whether an individual working early without completing a degree is beneficial or detrimental is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being acknowledged to be prime professionals in society, doctors and lawyers enjoy stable and gainful income. It is evident that without university qualifications, students are by no means allowed to pursue a career as doctors or lawyers. Furthermore, it is a common occurrence that degree holders are sought after. Needless to say, this is co

中環閣麟街 32-34 號美輪樓地下 C 號舖 電話:2117 4123 本來打算到吉野家試食上月底新出的芝士雞窩,誰不知已全線停售。 轉了吃韓國餐廳- 韓韓館 部隊鍋是這家餐廳主打,而且價錢合理,百多元便可享用二人份量。 本人對部隊鍋一點興趣都沒有,我們點了推介菜-芝士炒排骨及蒜香海老帶子飯。 芝士炒排骨 ($138) 剛上桌時排得很整齊的,及後,待應把鍋底的洋葱及芝士反了點上來,並說待一會芝士便會溶。 它的辣不是來自泡菜或辣醬,而是胡椒,因此辣得格外香。 排骨很淋,炆得夠入味,配上胡椒芝士及洋葱,伴飯吃一流。 蒜香海老帶子飯 ($88) 在這些餐廳吃海鮮當然是急凍貨試,但沒想到它們上桌時份然是凍的。 雖然有濃濃蒜香,但仍有點失望。 餐廳裝修陳舊,卡位的椅皮已破損,洗水間的水龍頭也是壞的。

銅鑼灣-Mr. Steak

圖片
地址:銅鑼灣告士打道 280 號世貿中心 6 樓 電話:2881 5757 是次到Mr. Steak享用自助晚餐,聽說這家餐廳的自助餐質素高,但每次想到價錢這個問題便卻步了。 我們食量不大,每人一餐要五百多元,實在太貴了。 就著豐信用卡的優惠-四人同行,一人免費,就來試一次。 即日訂枱於星期日晚上1930時段入坐,因較遲訂枱,須坐近門口位置。 1930這個時段的自助餐所提供的食物種類最多,價錢亦最貴的。 食物方面,好味的東西如下: 開邊凍龍蝦-約手掌大,肉質爽口,部份有鮮橙色的膏。 凍麵包蟹-蟹蓋已有很多膏。 凍長腳蟹-鹹度適中,啖啖肉。 凍青口-青口一般都沒有什麼味道,但我覺得這裏的青口頗香甜,有點意外。 帶子刺身-鮮甜大片。 自助餐的刺身一般都要排隊才有,但這家的刺身師父未免太吝嗇吧,我點了帶子,赤貝及鯛魚刺身,她只給我一粒帶子和一片赤貝,三片鯛魚。 芝士波-用芝士包著一粒甜甜的提子,外層沾了芝麻,鹹甜適中,是有趣好味的小食。 羊腩煲-羊肉炆得又淋又入味,配上腐乳,拍得住大牌檔。 豬腳薑-不會太甜,豬腳亦多肉,不會皮包骨。 牛肉壽喜燒-來自日本九州的牛牛,薄薄一片,醬汁香甜。 燒羊架-這個較少失手的菜式,不會過熟及過生,肥瘦適中。 北海道牛乳布甸-應該用上3.6北海道牛乳,入口香滑,超濃奶味。 心太軟-聽說是這裏的招牌菜式,熱烘烘,內裏充滿朱古力醬。甜品師父亦會應客人要求在碟上填上字句及繪圖。 但一件令人失望的事發生了: 由於食客眾多,客人須要將所填字句寫在紙上,師父會續一完成。 我等了很久也看不到屬於我的心太軟,碰巧看到師父手上剛完成的紙是我寫的字,但不知被誰刪了改做自己的句子。 很可惡,小時候便聽人說香港人最愛排隊,排隊守規以往都是香港人的美得,不知被誰破壞了美譽。 幸好師父得知後亦立刻幫我繪一個。 沒提及的食物水準一般吧,但有以下這些可免則免: 片皮鴨-鴨還好吧,但它的皮(白色那片)是涼的,而且超及硬,用牙也咬不開。 韓牛-雖說是自助餐的其中一道主打菜式,但煮得太熟了,而且沒有牛味,只有肉的質感。 其實在這裏做待應和洗碗的都很辛苦,很多又大又重的碟要搬和洗。 平日吃自助餐都習慣把自己的碟重用,但

Advertising Power

Today, the high sales of popular consumer goods reflect the power of advertising and not the real needs of the society in which they are sold. To what extend do you agree or disagree? In our times, with the ubiquitous advertisements shown on television, the sales of goods have surged dramatically. There are those who contend that those advertisements incite consumers to purchase unnecessary items. In this sense, whether advertisements are selling product which are in the real needs is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being advertised by popular singers and renowned actors, products are notably in great demand amongst youngsters. Needless to say, youngsters purchase these products impulsively and are obvious to the necessity of buying these items. Hence, the green generations spend plenty of their disposable income on products advertised by their favourite singers or actors in order to give support to their idols. From another stance, sterling quality and appealin

Freedom of Speech

Is freedom of speech necessary in a free society? In former times, freedom of speech was strictly constricted for the benefit of counties’ development. Nonetheless, there are those who contend that freedom of speech is the unique means for improving a free society. In this sense, whether freedom of speech is consistently detrimental to countries’ development is yet to be ascertained. From one stance, politicians take advantage of freedom of speech to slander their opponents in the legislative council which undermines the efficiency of their meetings. To illustrate, a member of the council rejects an agenda proposed based on a rumour that the member proposing the agenda is having beneficial connections with a corporation, irrespective of the positive outcome it may be brought. Evidently, freedom of speech becomes a hindrance of countries’ development. From another stance, freedom of speech incites the general public to fight for their right. In former times, employees work

Juvenile Delinquency

Recent figures show an increase in violent crime among youngster under the age of 18. Some psychologists claimed that the basic reason for this is that children these days are not getting the social and emotional learning they need from parents and teachers. To what extend do you agree or disagree with this opinion? In our times, the number of juvenile delinquency has surged dramatically worldwide. A staggering number of individuals, notably psychologists, claimed that parents and teachers fail to instill proper values in their offspring. Nevertheless, there are those who contend that children are prone to commit offences due to peer influence. Hence, the reason behind the rising figures is yet to be ascertained. From one stance, it is common occurrence that both parents are far too preoccupied with their work. In truth, the time they devote to their children’s upbringing is inadequate. In like manner, as teachers are in charge of different subjects, they consistently fail to fatho

Punishment

Some people believe that there should be fixed punishments for each type of crime. Others, however, argue that the circumstances of an individual crime, and the motivation for committing it, should always be taken into account when deciding on the punishment. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. The recent decades have witnessed an ever-increasing concern about punishments of each type of crime. Nonetheless, a staggering number of individuals insist that punishments should be subject to certain considerations. In this sense, whether a fixed punishment for each type of crime is beneficial or detrimental to the general public is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, the deterring effect of fixed punishments convinces potential-criminals to reconsider their act. It is imperative to let the general public realise the punishment that they would receive. Hence, being imprisoned, criminals lose their freedom, which prevents potential law-breakers from committing o

西貢行山-大網仔戶外訓練營~長山北~鯽魚湖

圖片
在西貢市中心巴士總站搭乘94號巴士於西貢戶外訓練營下車。 沿馬路靠左向黃石方向走約幾分鐘,便會看到左邊有一條上山的樓梯,這便是是人登山路線的起步點。 開始路段樓梯較多,而且沒有樹陰遮擋,但好處是景觀開揚,可看到西貢對出的其他島嶼,如橋咀,牛尾等。 走過開段的樓梯後,後段則較多樹陰,部份路段較顛簸或多碎石,行走時要格外小心。 這段路較少健行者,我們行山途中只遇到幾名登山者。 走至鯽魚湖及北潭涌分岐路時,打算順道到鯽魚湖看看。 沿指示直行卻走到馬路口,並且是94號巴士途經路段,因此放棄步行至北潭涌,就在鯽魚湖站等巴士回市中心。 長假期最後一天下午,較多遊人由黃石回到市中心,我們等了兩架巴士才可迫上車。 我覺得九巴的手機應用程式很完善,為市民著想。 只要打開九巴App, 搜尋所需路線,便可得知該巴士將會於多久到達某車站。 若新巴或城巴都有此服務便好了。

Youth crime

Levels of youth crime are increasingly rapidly in most cities around the world. What are the reasons for this, and suggest some solutions. The recent decades have witnessed increasing concerns about juvenile delinquency in certain countries. There are those who contend that adolescents lack a role model, which easily leads them astray by detrimental influences including drugs and crime. In this sense, whether governments should provide more support for families are beneficial to deter youngster from committing crime is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, being brought up in single-parent families, adolescents often commit offences. Without a role model as guidance, youngster, notably boys, always hang around with teenagers who share a similar family background and find their own entertainment. Needless to say, crime is one of the forms of entertainment they would have. Nevertheless, having a father acting as a role model, youngsters can come to realisation that crime sh

What news to be shown

News editors decide what to broadcast on television and what to print in newspapers. What factors do you think influence these decisions? Do we become used to bad news? Would it be better if more good news was reported? The recent decades have witnessed increasing concerns on what to be broadcast on television or to be printed in newspapers. There are those who contend that positive news should be reported, and negative news should be left out. Conversely, a staggering number of individuals claim that negative news should be the central focus of newspapers. In this sense, whether failing to report negative events is beneficial or detrimental to the public is yet to be ascertained. First and foremost, editors’ sole wish is to promote their sales; news which can attract readers’ interest would be included in newspaper irrespective of its sources being good or bad. Furthermore, it is widely deemed that newspapers should report on the current affairs. Interestingly enough, one of

團購-上環-Not a Burger

圖片
這家是外賣店,店內只有兩個bar枱坐位。 晚上人流較少,我們決定在店內享用早前所團購的兩個餐。 每個餐均包括指定漢堡,小食及指定飲品。 我選了芝士漢堡,熱狗棒及忌廉溝鮮奶。 另一個則選了泡菜豬肉漢堡,炸雞及可樂。 這個非一般漢堡以菜飯代替麵包,餡料為韓國風味,以泡菜為主。 下單時總覺得這個飯團似的東西份量太少,一定食不飽,所以兩個餐都加飯(不用額外付錢)。 貨到打開後發現這飯堡大得像拳頭,男生吃是夠飽的。若女生吃的話不用加大也夠了。 收銀員說我的芝士飯堡是指定漢堡中最少辣的一款。對我來說,有飯,小食飯品等伴食還好。怕辣的話,這個團購便不適合了。 飯堡內除了芝士,還有泡菜及吞拿魚沙律,這幾樣東西也很夾,味道不錯。吃前應該要先按壓,否則飯團會較鬆散。 而韓式熱狗棒倒食我第一回嘗的。它與普通熱狗棒的分別在於外層沾滿了超脆的薯粒。即麥當奴薯條碎,最硬最脆那些。 炸得有點燶,我不太喜歡熱氣食物,但其實口感和味道幾好的。 泡菜豬肉堡較辣,整個漢堡都是泡菜味。 很喜歡它的炸雞。其實樣子像麥樂雞,炸得金黃色,很脆很靚。內裏的雞肉口感滑,一客近十件炸雞,很抵。 這家店的食物性價比高,值得回購。

Study Abroad

Nowadays many students have the opportunity to study for part or all of their courses in foreign countries. While studying abroad brings many benefits to individual students, it also has a number of disadvantages. Do you agree or disagree? The number of students joining international exchange programmes has surged dramatically. It is widely deemed that students’ horizon are broadened with an in-depth understanding of a multicultural environment. Nonetheless, there are those who contend that without parents’ guidance, exchanged students’ behavior is influenced by their peers. In this sense, whether studying abroad are beneficial to students is yet to be ascertained. From one stance, it is widely acknowledged that studying abroad helps students to master foreign languages. Furthermore, problem-solving skills are enhanced as a result of being independence, in addition to daily communication to foreigners, which allow them a superior adaption in contacting individuals with diverse

粉嶺-What The Food Cafe

圖片
地址:粉嶺業豐街13號多利工業大廈1樓F室 營業時間:星期二至日: 11:00-22:00;星期一休息 電話:2677 1303 由粉嶺站步行到此工業大廈需時約15分鐘,來此之食客多為特意前往者,包括甲乙在內。 乘電梯到1樓轉右便可看到WTF的小牌。 復活節的星期六約1130到達餐廳,內有伶仃幾枱客人。 約1300左右,便全場滿坐。約相約一班好友於假至此,先致電預約較穩陣。             內裏是樓上cafe裝潢,有圖書角,但書架前便是一枱食客,不方便取書。   我們點了鰻魚蛋包飯及BBQ豬肋骨。 跟餐有羅宋湯餐包及普通餐飲(可加錢轉特飲)。 羅宋湯味道正常,用上少用於羅宋湯的中國的紅蘿蔔,所以紅蘿蔔甜甜的。 餐包超好味,送來時暖暖的。我們有兩個不同味的餐包,它們都十分鬆軟,香甜麥味,暖笠笠時最好吃。 鰻魚蛋包飯$68 鰻魚份量不欺場,大小約大半隻手,厚度算是肥美。但鰻魚汁偏甜。 蛋的份量足以蓋著飯,既滑又有蛋汁,是有水準的茶餐廳滑蛋。 蛋內約有一碗半以蔴油醬汁拌過的飯。雖然用心,但我覺得味道太多,換白飯應該也不錯。 BBQ豬肋骨 可配飯、意粉或薯菜,我們選了後者。 薯菜是炸薯角及芝麻醬沙律菜。 薯角熱辣辣,香脆野味。 豬肋骨味道不錯,但除了外觀,其他方面都不像BBQ。 用叉子輕易便可以把骨肉分離,像炆肉一樣。 加了$18要一杯山楂玫瑰花茶。 有半杯都是山楂及玫瑰花,所以味道濃郁。我還另外叫了一杯水加到剩下的花茶中,仍然很有花茶味。 最後加了兩個甜品,芒果拿破崙及雪糕馬卡龍(可自選雪糕味道),跟餐減$10。 甜品一般,雪糕球很堅固,所以雪糕及馬卡龍較難同吃,但賣相一流。 總結:最愛餐包、滑蛋及山楂玫瑰花。 滿坐時感覺像茶餐廳。                                            

粉嶺鶴藪露營記

Check point 1: 早餐-協香麵包西餅店 先到由粉嶺MTR步行到聯和墟(約15分鐘)食早餐及搜購露營物資。 所謂的早餐是買麵包及西餅邊走邊吃。 協香最出名的是雞脾包-原隻滷水雞脾外層包著普通的西式麵包。   雖然雞脾較乾,但份量十足。 麵包吸滿了雞脾油香,既香又脆。 價錢簡直以成本價益街坊,只須$9。 另外還買了一件斑蘭蛋糕及一件藍莓芝士撻。 蛋糕及撻的份量都有手掌那麼大。 斑蘭蛋糕甜度適中,吃時可嗅到陣陣斑蘭香味。 藍莓芝士撻有層口感: 最面的一層是軟身的芝士,第二層是較硬身的藍莓芝士,最底層則是鬆脆餅底。 味道和口感都不錯,只須$13。 Check point 2: 乘搭52B專線小巴到鶴藪圍 52B的原定路線是會駛入聯和墟,但報紙檔姐姐說:在假日時候,因為太多人於粉嶺港鐵站搭乘此小巴,每輛開出的小巴都已滿座,所以小巴司機不會駛入聯和墟。 那我們便步行回港鐵站,路程約十分鐘而已。 這輛小巴每20-30分鐘一班,並如報檔姐姐所說-總站已上滿了客。 當小巴到達鶴藪圍那個亭便是我們的目的地。 這個未必是總站,如車上仍有乘客,司機會繼續右轉到鶴藪圍村才會回頭。 鶴藪圍亭所在處便是鶴藪道,繼續沿此路往前走約15分鐘便可抵達營地。 我們約1130抵達營地,當時約一半營地已被佔據,相信大部份營友於前一天已在此註紮。 其實來到營地後有些失望,有想立刻離開的意慾。 除了沒有什麼漂亮景色外,還像旺角一樣吵耳。 一批有老有嫰的人在營地大聲的無休止地播著音樂,音樂播至清晨(雖然音量有被調低,但十幾米遠的我仍清晰聽見)有暫停一會,相信是播放機沒電了,但未到清晨6點時又再繼續播。 除此以外,他們還大聲說粗話,猜枚及玩啤牌等,完全沒有理會其他人的感受。 我們紮好營,吃過午餐後便立刻離開,出法行山去。 這個營質地較薄較涼爽,半夜約只有幾度及沒有風的天氣下,穿著羽絨也不夠暖。 Check point 3: 沙螺洞 我們由鶴藪營地經水塘,再經右方樓梯步行至沙螺洞然後截返。 營地至水塘段為石屎斜路,沒有樹陰遮擋。 水塘至沙螺洞段則較多樹陰,烈日下會走徥較舒服。
