This weekend there was some sort of carnival in our neighborhood. Local restaurants had wine and food pairings, so we did a tour. We started at Bourbon, where we had wine and mini pulled-pork sandwiches. I wolfed mine too fast to get a photo, so here's a picture of a harlequin instead:
It was then on to Fat Angelo's, for wine and antipasti:
Then Rick's for wine and olives:
And finally, Portobello for irish coffee and dessert:
I think we must have stopped at a few other places, because I actually didn't remember going to Portobello until I looked at the photos the next morning. Or afternoon. Whatever.
The carnival was partly sponsored by The Venetian in Macau. Here's a street scene including the "three tenors," who I'm pretty sure are drunk.
The other big hit was the Vitamin Water pop-up store, which opened a couple of weeks ago. Vitamin Water is new to the Hong Kong market, and apparently the huge variety of sugary drinks available locally just isn't cutting it - the line for this place was out the door.
I saved money and time by heading to the grocery store and buying some pineapple-flavored Tang. Mmmm.
your pictures are so good, you should do photography for a food magazine... you make me want to eat weird food, and that just does not happen!!!
