Chiu
Chow Platter - red sausage, tofu, steamed pork, small intestine. The
overall taste is not complicated and salty, but quite natural.
Thai beer is served in a Chiu Chow restaurant.
We can find quite a lot of oysters in this 'Pan-fried Oyster Cake'. Overall size is not too big and it is not thick.
'White
Pepper Pig Stomach Soup' is the item for our re-try in Nam Kee. It is
not too enticing in appearance. But it is a delicious soup and
particularly good to keep your body warm in winter. To us, it is not
spicy enough, it is of course better to be more spicy. The pig stomach
is fresh, this is appreciated.

Kowloon
City is well-known for Thai and Chiu Chow cuisines. We today select to
re-try in Nam Kee, a typical restaurant of Chiu Chow food. Basically Nam
Kee is an eatery without decoration or with old decoration. In time of
full house, it is similar to that in other restaurants in Hong Kong,
noisy, packed and not comfortable.
We order beer, soup, plain
rice and two dishes. As usual, we do not want to waste any food or eat
too much. In addition, it is also a preparation for the dessert
thereafter. Food quality is more or less the same as before, not too
outstanding and not too bad. In fact, the main reason for us to try here
is the white pepper pig stomach soup. It is surely a fantastic
selection when the temperature drops to about 10.
Sometimes, it
would also be enjoyable if we dine in a noisy environment, everybody is
concentrating in their own talk. The noisy environment is in fact an
insulation that we cannot hear what other diners are talking about.
