Congee Wonderland

I've been meaning to post this for a while. This shop, Congee Wonderland, was one of about fifty in the half block between my hostel and the subway in Hong Kong. The sign flashes purple and green, 24 hours a day.


I walked past it every day and only stopped on the last day, preferring to go to the bakery for pineapple or curry buns or cinnamon twists instead. Of course everything was so good I wished I'd stopped every day I was there.

Here's a demure Helen and our wonderful spread of food at her favorite Thai place. Grilled squid on the left, green curry cooked (and served) in a coconut on the right, and pad thai in front of Helen. Delicious!
