Hong Kong Beef Offal, Wonton & Fishball Noodle Soup
I couldn't remember the last time I had beef brisket/wonton/fishball noodle soup, and finally, when SC and I had a chance to go out (thank God for grandma & grandma who are always willing to babysit...)...we went all crazy and ordered loadsss of food.
My favorite...beef stomach and beef brisket with flat noodles.
SC's picks...beef brisket and fried fish cake ends with flat rice noodles (hor fun).
A bowl of wonton soup. Big, juicy juicy shrimp wontons.
Obligatory veggie, we picked water spinach in fermented beancurd sauce. I love how the veggie is tender enough but still green and not butchered, and they're pretty generous with the sauce. I slathered my noodles in this sauce too. Yummm~!
And my favorite from this particular shop...
...the deep fried fish skin! Very thin, crispy, and not stinky at all!
If only I could bring home this whole container...
Now, this shop is not necessarily my favorite, but it's near my home, and it's good enough to satisfy my cravings. I have yet to find time to visit my favorite shop in Mongkok. I'll do a post once I had a chance.
Meanwhile, have a yummy week, everyone!

Sometimes, the simplest food is the best. I had similar dishes elsewhere in Sheung Wan (Hollywood Road, roadside stall) and they were delicious! Particularly love fermented beancurd. Why is it such an acquired taste?
My favorite is beef tendon...hee heee...right now (to help me heal, again) but it's not easy to find beef tendon soup/stew here. They always have beef stomach soup (which I don't really like) though.
Love fried fish skin too! That is even harder (or impossible?) to find here...
That fish skin really look crispy! The last time I had a shrimp wonton in Hong Kong, it gave me an allergy. :P
I'm super impressed by your offal extravaganza!
Jealous! I really need to get my ass to Hong Kong!
Those wontons looks so good.
