7 essential Hong Kong foodie experiences


This is it - after seven months living in Hong Kong we're heading back home to the UK today. In honour of our move I thought a list of the best bits of Hong Kong wouldn't go amiss. If you're planning a holiday here or moving over to work then these might just come in handy.


So with no further ado, these are my top Hong Kong foodie experiences:



1. Indulge in some high end dining at Hutong, Felix, Gaddi's, Toscana or M at the Fringe.




2. Brush up your chopstick skills then try some authentic Chinese cuisine at Spring Deer, Yung Kee or XinJiShi.



3. Find the latest hot tables with OpenRice, Hip Hong Kong or the Word of Mouth guide.



4. Haggle at the street market in Central, anyone for a fresh fish head?




5. Get away for a weekend in Macau for tasty egg tarts, distinctive Macanese cuisine and gambling.



6. Learn from a pro at a cookery class with Martha Sherpa. She teaches traditional Chinese, Thai and Dim Sum.



7. Or just stay at home and dream, by reading one of the many Hong Kong food blogs. Two of my favourites are Girl Eats Hong Kong and Cha Xiu Bao.

There may be a brief hiatus before I get reconnected to the net, and then The Princess and the Recipe will start in its new incarnation as a UK food blog.
