Delectable Dimsum at 3 Virtues, Kowloon Hong Kong
One cannot claim that one has visited Hong Kong until she/he has tried the cantonese dimsum. Vegetarians fear not as you can visit 3 Virtues to fulfill that criteria. Famous for its dimsum menu, 3 Virtues is definitely a one-stop destination for great vegetarian dimsummers. 3 Virtues changes its menu every 2-3 months so be sure to try out the items available during each cycle before they're replaced!

Cheung Fun
Chinese Rice Rolls stuffed with Mushrooms and Vegetables
I like Hong Kong's Cheung Fun better than the Malaysian version as the sauce is not as sweet and overwhelming as the Sweet Sauce (甜酱)


Soup Dumplings
"Scallop" Dumplings
this dish is extremely yummy! I love the pepper flavored soup as it helps amplify the "scallop" flavor.

Har Gao
Dumplings stuffed with vegetables, "Prawns"

Cheung Fun
Chinese Rice Rolls stuffed with "Prawns"
Wonton soup
"Seafood" wontons with a very tasty vegetable broth

Xiao Long Bao

Hong Kong CNY Day 2 Fireworks & Food
Hong Kong skyline

Kowloon - Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier

A very rare fireworks display as the smoke from the fireworks did not disperse, blocking Hong Kong's skyline.

This is a rare sight! HK island covered by a cloud of black smoke, leftover from the fireworks display.

Chinese New Year Lanterns at Elements shopping mall (Kowloon MTR station)- the lil girls are so cute right!

Shiny Merc at Elements Shopping Mall

A very famous Shanghainese dim sum eatery located in Hong Kong

奶油包 - Condensed Milk Buns - I ate the buns without the condensed milk as condensed milk is known to be high in saturated fat.

Vegetarian deep-fried stuffed beancurd sheets - very yummy dish as the filling was full of flavor and complimented the crispy outer very well.

Rice Wine Dumplings - Ah, this is a must try! Even a Caucasian friend loved it as the fragrance of the rice wine helped amplify the flavor of the peanut filling. We loved this so much that we practically licked the bowl to the very last drop.


Crispy Rice Snacks to be dipped into the thick vegetable stock

Creamy Cabbage - this is the first time I've had this dish and I can't decide if I like it or not. LoL

Vegetarian noodles.

It took us ages to finally get a table at this very popular eatery, so make sure to book ahead!

M Garden Vegetarian - Mongkok
It was great to get off the bustling HK streets into a warm and cosy restaurant like M Garden. It was such a pity that we did not have the time to visit this restaurant when I was with my family the last time when we were here. They would have loved the food.
