Hong Kong Foodie Photo Tour: The Last Four Days

Posted in Asia, Hong Kong, On the Ground

I just returned from my once-in-a-lifetime trip to Hong Kong where I devoured so much top quality food that the scale in my room at the InterContinental taught me the Cantonese word for “fat.” It was all worth it, though. I hope you’ve enjoyed reading my posts from the trip so far (click each word for a different story). My first Hong Kong Foodie Photo Tour took you through the first four days of my trip, but now I’d like to invite you to join me on a photographic journey through the last four days. I was hosted for meals at multiple Michelin Star restaurants (Bo Innovation, 8 1/2 Otto e Mezzo Bombana, Yan Toh Heen, The Steak House) as well as dim sum specialists Tim Ho Wan, said to be the cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant in the world. To balance out my extremely decadent eating, I also hit up some of Hong Kong’s best street food. Check it all out below:

  1. Thanks for the photos! I’m going to HK in December and have begun compiling a list of food to eat my way through… 😀

  2. The food in Hong Kong blew me away, and we only at at “cheap eats” places. We were on a budget, despite flying there in business on Cathay Pacific 🙂 We found we didn’t need to spend a whole lot of money to eat well!
