A sudden trip to Cheung Chau led me to this well-known fish ball place. I've visited once 2 years ago, but for some reason I can't recall what I had at all. Environment & Hygiene:This place is pretty near the pier, and should be quite easy to find. It's a pretty big place that occupies about the space of three stores. You know they're the top selling place for "balls". Although they don't offer seating, there is a bench nearby, where around 4-5 people can sit. All the skewers are left sitting

This place is pretty near the pier, and should be quite easy to find. It's a pretty big place that occupies about the space of three stores. You know they're the top selling place for "balls". Although they don't offer seating, there is a bench nearby, where around 4-5 people can sit. All the skewers are left sitting out in the open, but since all the skewers are deep-fried whether you like it or not, whatever bacteria would be killed in the high heat oil I guess.
Service:The service was surprisingly good maybe because the staff who helped us was friendly and actually had a smile on her face when we ordered. We ordered a total of 3 times and each time she had a smile. Thank you. Also, I like that they wrap a piece of paper towel around each skewer.
Taste & Value:
My friend heard good things about their tofu puff skewer stuffed with shrimp($10), but the last time she visited, they were out so we made sure we'd be able to try it today. If I remember correctly, this was the cheapest skewer available and also the best in my opinion. Although it was deepfried, it didn't taste that greasy. It was nice and crunchy, but not hard, and the filling was deliciously chewy. I was surprised by how good it tasted.
The next skewer we had was the Salmon & Cheesy ball choice ($15). This was alright, I couldn't really taste salmon in the salmon ball, but the cheesy ball was cheesy and the fish around it was fresh. If I had to choose, I'd choose the cheesy ball over the salmon ball.
After eating these 2 skewers, we decided that we had to get the Giant Fish Ball one ($15) as well, since it is so well-known. They were some giant balls as you can see the 2 balls = the size of an Iphone. Although the fish did taste fresh, compared to the other ones, this skewer was kinda tasteless and was my least favourite.
Believe it or not, after wandering around the island, we decided to come back again since my friend still wanted to have the cheesy fish cake ($15). Again, you can tell that the fish was fresh. Although this and the above cheesy ball are basically the same thing, this cheesy fish cake tasted way better.
These skewers do cost more than other places, but these you know are fresh so once a while doesn't hurt. Final Verdict:
I miss the tofu puff skewer already. This is a must go place if you go to Cheung Chau.
