Yummy Casserole (rice) is one of the signature food in Hong Kong, especially for winter season. Those raw rice just is getting well cooked by the heated casserole. The normal-looking cook stuff has a magical power to make those rice good-smelling and chewy, and I'm sure some of you just like me, prefer those bottom layer of rice stick on the casserole, a little over-cooked but extremely tasty even without any sauce.Yau Ma Tei, the must-going place for travelers and also for locals in chili seaso
Yummy Casserole (rice) is one of the signature food in Hong Kong, especially for winter season. Those raw rice just is getting well cooked by the heated casserole.

The Hong Kong style street foods and local restaurants there offers super cheap seafood, fried foods, casserole and Chinese desserts. Hing Kee, has quite huge business, almost cover the whole bottom area of the whole street. Eaters prefer sitting outdoor and enjoying really local foods and services. Everything is noisy and loud, typically street-style.
Hing Kee's casserole is not so delicious, but it's cheap anyway with so many choices. Normally they have sausage, chicken, pork ribs, beef (quite fake meat), squid or other seafood. As to the taste, personally, they don't differentiate a lot from each other, coz whatever you order, you will 'pour' some Hing Kee brand black soy sauce to enrich the flavor. Salty sauce but a little sweet meanwhile, separated and chewy rice with yummy meat. Casserole, always a good deal.
Besides, I always order this famous Deep Fried Baby Oyster Omelette. Baby oysters are mixed into flour and eggs to become a huge omelette. I really love the biting experience for its crispy and loose texture, actually it's not so greasy as its looking. Don't expect too high towards those baby oysters, but I shall say it never let me down in terms of quantity.
Spicy Mantis Shrimp, why ugly-looking dishes can be such tasty?! Well, that time I didn't quite satisfied to it, coz the shrimp is not fat enough so that it affects overall taste. But I admit the chef knows well about the sauce, spicy, salty and a little bit sweet, very rich taste.
It's my first time to try Fried Pig Intestines, such big courage to order this for it's too fat and feel a little disgusting. To my surprise, the dish looks nice with orange cover and fatty greasy milky color inside. I strongly suggest to order this one only if you have at least 4 persons to share for its big potion. With sweet and sour sauce balances the greasy and fatty feeling, while I have to say, it's delicious. Crispy of fried skin, fatty and melted texture when chewing, and that strong taste can drive pork-lover crazy.
