If there's one reason that will keep me in hong kong forever would be the FOOD. i'm not talkin' about the chinese food here. but i'm talkin' how very much like nyc, downtown la, there's cusines from all over the world. just lookin' at the streets filled with different types of restaurants makes me feel like a kid in a candy store! haha. yeah, i enjoy eatin' different types of food if u haven't figured it out. yesterday, i went out to central with my bro, sis, sis in law, and 2 nieces and ate dinner at two restaurants. haha, yeah TWO. we first went to a japanese style pasta place called TE. it was good overall, can't say it's excellent or bad. it's a type of food i would called it as "safe food." not something sophisticated but simple and good. i had "F" on the menu which was the creamy tuna pasta. the pasta used was the regular type of spaghetti in most red sauce. this particular dish was in a white sauce as guessed by the word creamy. not strong in taste at first. u really need to mix it a bit first because the sauce sinked onto the button. i didn't get to taste much of what the others ate but i did get a few bites out of what my niece cherie ordered. it was just the regular red sauce pasta. regular is an understatement because as generic as it seems, it actually tasted pretty darn good. i'm not particularly sure, but my guess is the tomato had to be pretty fresh along with a few additional spice and i would guess, a bit of sugar to heighten the taste. about 55-65 hkd a plate. it's not exactly cheap for the portion they gave u. i say about 3-4 big bites and you could really finish it. in conclusion, if u want pasta but not italian, well, check TE out. then again, most of u people readin' probably won't be in hong kong anyways, haha.
