(Shau Kei Wan, Hong Kong) Hello
This is Hong Kong Lunch
Wow, we came to the place
We don't usually come
This place
I've never been here before
Yeah
This is
Hong Kong's
Eastside
Called Shau Kei Wan
What's amazing about the area is that
Subway stations in Hong Kong
All of them
Each has
Its own unique color
Right, right
This place has
Really dark
- Blue color - Oh
Why is that so?
I have no idea
I've never seen this color before
Yeah
Look
The station is
Completely just blue
(5 minutes from the station)
As we walk this street
They are all restaurants
This street
Seems like an area
Where small restaurants like these are
I know
So
I had a thought
About four years ago
Yeah
I had a meal here
But today
I asked my colleague
Who has lived in Shau Kei Wan
For about 30 years
To recommend
Anything delicious to eat out
- I asked - Yes
And recommended this area
- The restaurants recommended by locals are guaranteed to be good - That's right
Every week
They also come here to eat
So
I mean
Let's see it for ourselves
(Shabby)
The look of it
You might say
It looks unorganized but
Here we are
Wow, there are a lot of people
(Here?)
(Inside)
(You mean inside)
(Thanks)
(Taking seats)
I like this kind of traditional vibe
So much
I can feel the local vibe
A lot
And these days people tend to
Spend money
In China a lot
So, it's hard to find a restaurant
- Packed with people like this - Even on the weekend
Even harder nowadays
By the way
The menu seems
- Nice and tidy - It is so
And moreover
They have a menu translated into Japanese
They are kind to do this
(May I order?)
(Yes, what can I get for you?)
(I'd like to..)
(Have a noodle with fish cake)
(A stirred noodle)
(And a fried fish skin, please)
(and also a condensed milk with butter, please)
(Okay)
(And an iced milk tea, please)
A special point you can find in Hongkong is
They just put the menu
- On this side like this - Right, right
(A careless serving)
Ah, we got one right away
This is Youbei
I've introduced this
Last time
As my colleague says
This place prepare
New batch of Youbei
Everyday for freshness
- That's what they told me - Wow
So, it’s really delicious
They said we have to try
If you cook new batch every day, it can’t help but be delicious, honestly
Honestly, by opening it like this
I don't know
If I'm doing it the right way
And they give you soup with it
- Do you dip it? - Yes
You can dip it and eat it together
But honestly, this soup is
The same one that they use
For the noodle we ordered
The familar
Bill that we have no idea of how to read
Such a classic Hong Kong
Paper receipt
Evidence of an old restaurant
But actually
It can be devided
Here is for noodles
Here is for drinks
Drinks or something else
But
- I think they don't follow the order - Right
They use their own order
(Random order)
Look at this
This is You-Danfer
This is something you can commonly see in Hong Kong
This is that noodle, actually
On top of variety of fish cake
This square one and
The round ones
- It contains various types of fish cakes like this - Yes
The soup is very clear
With the soup base
Noodles are rice noodles
Which are classic Hong Kong styles
Next to it
There should be a piece of vegetable
I don't know why just one
I really don't get it
Why only one piece
Wow, this is a little
Special, I think
This is the popular menu
(Mixing)
Wow
Inside..
That’s it
There is auram
Inside of it..
Different types of fishcake
Beef fishcake
And I think there is a wonton there
(Next dish served)
Ohh the last one
Look at this butter and condensed milk toast
It’s definitely not healthy
(Blood sugar spike)
Actually, we
Had different opinions
Why?
Should we have ordered it at the end?
-Ah -If we’re having it right now
-Cause it gets cold? -Right, it gets cold
-But anyway -It’s fine
- But let’s have noodles first - Okay
Noodles is the main dish
So I think we gotta try this one first
What surprises me is
That actually
Before we get to explain about the menu
Everything has been served already
The order’s messed up, I guess
It means they can serve that fast
It really is
I know that noodles and the soup
Would be prepared ahead of time
- Even considering that, it's way too fast - True
(Start eating)
Is it good?
What makes it different from other places?
It’s really fresh
Fresh?
(One bite of fishcake)
(Impressed)
(Response)
This one is good
Yes, fishcake is really yummy
Fishcake is the best menu in this restaurant
- The taste is somewhat fancy - Oh my
Umm, it’s good
Wait
I heard this one is the best
(Nothing could beat this)
In Hong Kong
They call it Dana
Dan means something bounces
Chewing
An is the teeth
So the teeth are really
(Expressing with a gesture)
To the point where it bounces a lot
The texture is really
It's chewy, right?
- It's really nice - That's right
What's more surprising is that
When I go to another places
I get the fishy taste
- Right - It's normal
There's really no fishy taste here
(One bite of Bibimmyeon)
How is it?
The noodles
It's just...
It doesn't taste like just regular stir-fried soy sauce noodles
It's a bit rich
The noodles itself is delicious
Right before
I ate a fish cake
I tried one
(Witness)
This is art
With stir-fried noodles
I think it's more artistic if you eat it with the fish cake
The advantage of my menu is
There are a lot of different kinds
Of course, it's a little bit
So you can taste various flavors
You can taste the meat
It alao tastes like fish
This is kind of..
It's partly like braised soy sauce
I think this kind of taste is really good
I'm really curious about this noodle
- It looks really good - Yes
It's different from regular noodles
So that
I look like a thief
I look like a noodle thief
We're sharing
(In haste)
It's different, right?
It's a bit different, it's delicious
The taste is
It's similar to other places
Because
It's just soy sauce and stir-fried noodles
But the texture is the best
It's like flying around in my mouth
- It's delicious - It's really good
I'll try deep fried menu
There are people who just eat it
And there are ones who dip it a little bit
Making it warm
Dip it for about 1 to 2 seconds
There are different styles
I'm used to just eating
(Tasting)
It tastes good
- Wow - It's different
I think
They added
Some black pepper and salt
I think they added something
To prevent fishy taste
But I think the reason why it's delicious is
That it is slightly thicker
Than other restaurants
That's right
It's good to chew
That's why it's a little bit crispier
Because it's thicker
I can't feel it's crispier
Other places make it feel like just eating the powder
Let's say
It tastes like eating
Real fish skin here
I think I know why the locals here recommended this place
It's really delicious
Actually, here in Shau Kei Wan
There's a really famous
Noodles restaurant
Actually, we were going to go there
But this is a place that a family set up together
(Argument)
Something bad must have happened
The brothers
Split up independently
They left the family business
To run their own business
(The story of how the restaurant opened)
And one more thing
There's a situation where people from Korea
Have to be careful
Hong Kong people are
(Hesitating)
Even though we are a couple
We shouldn't really share the food like this
I just have to go along with it
Because lived here for long
Every time I go to Korea, I got shocked a bit
When I was young
I was having an ice cream
My friend was asking for a bite
Just a bite...
I gave it away
The whole ice cream
I gave the whole thing
(Individualism)
Hey, this toast really looks
I will have the half
Inside of it, it's just
The La
Wow there are a lot of butter inside
Should I just take out half the butter?
(Too much butter)
Think about health
- It's a bit much -Just look at the butter
It's just very sweet and
Very rich in butter flavor
Just the taste of a toast
I think the thick bread is quite impressive
I'm thinking about my health
And considering removing some butter
Yeah let's not think about health for a moment
And take a bite
(Change of heart)
(Tasting it)
Wow
(Shocked)
I think I put the whole butter
- In my mouth - Right?
It is quite heavy definitely
I guess this is perfect
After having noodles
And just order only one
Between two and share it
-It feels like -One per person is a bit much
Since we had something savory, now it's time for
Something sweet
I think I've found the ultimate noodle shop here
Wow really
Wow, it was really delicious
Super delicious
(The price is about 236,270 KRW) The price is around 177 HKD
Yes
Actually, noodle is
A little bit expensive
- Yes, yes -More than anywhere else?
But the rest of the side dishes
It's about the same price
Yes yes
Let's find a better place next time
We'll continue to travel in Hong Kong
Joey-Kinnie
People in Hong Kong
- Don't they eat a lot of hot pots? - yes
So, like this
Fish cake and dumplings
Something like dumplings
You can buy them to go
12 is that
12
That's why it's 12
