Water Blowing 吹水够力

yo…nice summer day after shopping around with shyuan at the “whole food market” at high street kengsinton, now sitting at a nice local cafe at china town, rupert street to be precisely having a nice cup of mocha and testing the t-mobile internet on my Macbook

in Central London where I can get the HSDPA 3G signal, I use the MDA Vario 3 connected to the internet and bluetooth my macbook to the phone for writing this post.

speed quite all right and just took a photo too using the same phone but unfortunately i cannot get the photo send to the macbook now due to the bluetooth is in use. Will post the photo later. ciao!!!

oriental restaurant chain guru Alan Yau has his new chinese fusion chain opening in london this week, and we were lucky enough to attend a special food testing evening a week before the restaurant opens its door to the public.

i say fusion because they serve a wide-ranging food from dan dan mian, to penang prawn noodle; from singapore fried noodle to HK XO cheong fun. i personally recommend pork wonton dumpling in spicy sauce 红油炒手，salt and peppr enoki mushroom and the salty-but-can-be improved cod and bitter melon glass vermicelli in black bean sauce. 9/10 was our feedback.

cocktails were fulled of surpises too, with guava,coconut and limeleaf my favourite. u can find a twist of oriental element in their alcoholic version too, e.g. lychee, sake and martini bianco.

the interior was great, although it resembled too much of a cross btw wagamama and busaba. a safe colour scheme – brown engineering bricks, long wooden tables and boxy lanterns, all too much of an Alan Yau’s chain. pink fritted glass allows u to have a full glance of the kitchen was a surpise, thou i would imagine the chefs should have a hard time trying to keep the kitchen clean n tidy 24/7.

like any of his businesses, i can’t really see this one failing. it’ll probably be very successful in a few months-years time before it’s sold and him moving on to his new Asian empire.

First test taste of Belgium food, sort of, at Belgo (near Seven Dials, Covent Garden, London). Here the famous dinner is mussels, the fruit bear and desert. Prices are average above I can say, about £9 to £13 for main course, starter ranging £5 to £8, desert from £4 to £7 and bear price also around £3 to £5 (as far as I remember)

When we walk in to the restaurant, the upper level is just for queing and then we’ve been lead down to the underground part which the restaurant utilized about 5 to 6 shop lot kind of space, which is BIG!!! Lots of people too….

The service is all right but the waiter all are always too busy…..

The food came with surprise when first reaching my table, especially the tempura mussels but once you almost finish the meal, I just feel it taste like another normal western food which is not too bad

Next time I better show you all the lunch I always went with my client in Windsor – Duke of Edinburgh, surprising nice bar food that you won’t expected from a pub.

early summer in london -

summer comes early this year, with people lying on greens at the start of may. i’m loving the relaxing atmosphere in london parks where temperature is just right for a lie down at anytime of the day.

today we down 3 bottles of wine in an hour and couldn’t stop blowing water to each other.
