Dirty Duck: April 2008
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 29 April 2008. The Only Place To Buy Your Fruit 'n' Veg. I have been shopping in two places since we arrived here in Hong Kong. The open market on Graham Street, is by far the most popular one I goto. I just enjoy the hustle n bustle of the place. Sunday, 27 April 2008. It's Curry Time . I think this could be an English thing, but every so often if I do not have some form of Indian food, I turn into one miserable git. I crave those delectable tastes, spices and fragrances of a good curry. Glory ...

Dirty Duck: Fishy Fishy Fishy Fish !!! or Island Hopping
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2008/05/fishy-fishy-fishy-fish-or-island.html
Friday, 9 May 2008. Fishy Fishy Fishy Fish! I really can say that I have never eaten so much seafood in such a short space of time. It has been excellent and I can see it continuing. The seafood that is consumed here in Hong Kong is at the other end of the scale from what we had in Japan, that I cannot begin to describe. We started our mammoth seafood bonanza in a large open air restaurant near to the beginning or at the end of Temple Street Market. Depending on which way you started. The XO Sauce. F...

Dirty Duck: To Dim Sum or to Yum Cha
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2010/05/to-dim-sum-or-to-yum-cha.html
Saturday, 10 May 2008. To Dim Sum or to Yum Cha. You have to do it don't you. When in Rome as they say. Dim Sum or Yum Cha is as Hong Kong as the Peak or the Star Ferry are. You think of one, you think of the other. The normal way, I observed afterwards, was to pick an area and hang around, and as soon as someone stands up to go, you pounce in the almost vacant seat. The English preserve does not stand here. Next up which seemed to be thrust upon us was some Steamed Pork Rolls. Lina reckons beef, but...

Dirty Duck: Bangkok - Part 1
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2008/05/bangkok-part-1.html
Thursday, 15 May 2008. Bangkok - Part 1. Bangkok is renowned for its food, especially its street food. Everyone in Bangkok seems to be eating something every moment of the day, whether it be simple grilled chicken or a simple tom sam papaya salad. The only thing I hate about Bangkok is that is so hot and horribly humid. I really am not a hot weather guy. But it does give me an excuse to drink a lot of very cold beer. Always up for that. You are shown to your seat, where someone explains the whole set up ...

Dirty Duck: Hello Moto ...
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2008/05/hello-moto.html
Saturday, 24 May 2008. What do you do as a cuisine when your two closest neighbours are the superstars in the region? Not a lot really, apart from sit back, relax and be enjoyed when people come across you by chance. Khmer cuisine will never reach the dizzying heights of what Thai and Vietnamese cuisine has. But in its own way it is kinda a star in its own way. The curry was Thai style but lacked the heat of Thai food, and also lacked a lot of chicken. One of the highlights was Amok with either chicken o...

Dirty Duck: Death by Chilli in Saigon
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2008/05/death-by-chilli-in-saigon.html
Wednesday, 28 May 2008. Death by Chilli in Saigon. The question that I have been pondering in the last few days is, can a chilli kill? The reason I have been thinking about this is because a chilli, or a slice of chilli nearly killed me. Well almost. But it needed a bit of heat to match the Salad I was eating, so I reached over with my chopstix and picked up a slice of green chilli, and said, "I am addicted to chilli, I need the heat", and popped it in my mouth. I always thought I could eat any chilli, a...

Dirty Duck: Kyoto : City of the Geisha
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2008/04/kyoto-city-of-geisha.html
Tuesday, 22 April 2008. Kyoto : City of the Geisha. I didn’t know what to expect from Kyoto, apart from some very fine food. I’d heard that the food was slightly more refined than in Tokyo, and they were not wrong. All the condiments for a good meal were being sold as well, from pickled foods to a shop selling 8 different types of Sushi rice. Never realized there were so many. Well I am a heathen. Literally stumbling upon Misoka-an Kawamichi-ya. This simple noodle shop has been making its own noodles...

Dirty Duck: Eu Não Falo Português
http://adirtyduck.blogspot.com/2012/04/eu-nao-falo-portugues.html
Wednesday, 14 May 2008. Eu Não Falo Português. I didn't know what to expect with Macau. Maybe just another Hong Kong, where everyone works 24/7 making loads of money and spending it just the same. Thankfully no, Macau, compared to Hong Kong is asleep. Well apart from the Las Vegas style casinos that greet you as you arrive at the Ferry Terminal. Now as we were in an old Portuguese colony, why not indulge in a few Portuguese treats. Well as in Rome. The menu consists of some old time classics, like grille...
