Two Restaurants in HKG

hey est......

presume u r already back..... but the next time ur down, we should take u and Luc out for a meal. We found this great restaurant called queen's palace, on queen's rd east in the QRE plaza in wan chai... (as u know there are lots of restaurants in HKG...) we know the owners/chefs and the service is great... the food is good, but have not tried everything yet ...... and the value is there (hk$200pp for dinner including booze!!!), all through;...... they are relatively new... so... keen ...... considering the number of even Michelin guide restaurants going bust....; it is a spin off from golden island chiu chow in tst which is a very famous place with the cognoscenti...... for value and food.....

and u did say that spouse and friend may be coming down for the summer? don't know how many people he knows here, but as always... we can eat out.....lol....

i still haven't contacted jer nor nan yet.. been busy taking care of ma's cats....lol..... and trying to get in my 40 min workout walking home from central these days... it can be quite a trial...hahahahaha...... and prep-ing for the new place and getting involved....lol... with the wedding plans.....

and trying out this ponzu sauce we got from a restaurant called sodeyama, which opened a new place in cwb, which is expensive!!!..... HK$600 a person, no booze.... that's around C$100pp, but u cannot get this standard in Canada... maybe Vancouver, but definitely not in Toronto and Ottawa..... for this price... (I paid c$500 pp for omakasi last x'mas........ in Tor......) because they are new and trying to please, the service was beyond reproach..... and we didn't even begin to scratched the, albeit expensive, surface of the meals there... we were only two on a monday night.....hahahahaha........ I'd go back there to try the udon and saki, but the sashimi (really extra fab....!!!!), fatty tuna salad, beef tongue and pork robitaki (BBQ) were all pretty exceptional ...... so....

anyway..... we have yet to try the jade garden seafood in HV. too, some time, and I did the motor inn or whatever opposite the tram station in HV, for curry beef flank.... but really tripe, and it was ok.... ..... I think it's time has passed... they still have hainan chicken & rice, which is pretty good... as well as their varied course meals...... (I read an ad once that said 4 'coarse' meals... that was cute.....hahahhahahaa......)

in any event...... let's catch up next time.... I was really only impressed with the soy sauce shrimp at yuk sau market, shung kee.....lol........ we have to try the other one... chu kee .... and I haven't even given you the impressions of all the fancy expensive places I have been to on and off the Michelin guide yet..... lol......

btw, my friend is an expert in legal trust BVI/Asian trust laws and I know that Pam would have no need?, but if any of u other guys need any advice, I am sure that he is willing to give some at a cost.........lol.... I have been starting to tease him about giving advise on banking trust laws.....lol.....

ciao ciao.....
