Dim Sum





Dim Sum in the city was pretty awesome on Sunday. You can have hundreds of different varieties of mini-portions of stuff.

Sunday was the most humid/muggy day I've experienced so far in Hong Kong. It was probably in the lower 80s with around 90% humidity. Walking around the city was quite the experience, you get short little blasts of cold air every once in a while as you pass the shops.

We played music for quite a while in an area on one of the busy streets and then had some dinner.

Last night was Bryan's last night in Hong Kong (for a while?) and he wanted some Nepali momo








1 Bus Ride to Mui Wo $3.2 HKD
1 Fast Ferry Ride to Central $25.50 HKD
1 Star Ferry from Central across to Kowloon/mainland $1.8 HKD
1 MTR ride from Tsim Sha Tsui to Jordan $3.8 HKD

Walking for an hour around the streets of Jordan at 11pm looking for "that one place" that sells momo: priceless

We found "the place" but it was closed, but we did find another place that sells momo, it was a small little place, but was really nice. We overran them with orders I think, they were very nice. I don't think they get a lot of of Westerners in there or at least not ones that like to talk or are friendly like us.

We bought 4 platters of momo, a chicken curry, a boiled potato curry (alum dum), and some really spicey cilantro nacho dish that I forgot the name of.

I really enjoy Nepalese food, it's definitely one of my favorite things to eat here in Hong Kong.
