廟街,一個由於香港電影才得知的地方,距離我在香港住的飯店不遠,就在第一天晚上來這兒走走逛逛,上圖的牌樓即是位於佐敦道的廟街入口。
The Temple Street is known because of the Hong Kong movies. Since it's close to where I stay, I went here at my first night in Hong Kong. The above photo is the entrance of Temple Street and Jordan Road. And the visitor bus just stopped there to take photos.
一進入廟街就覺得挺有趣的,原來指的是這樣,大家坐在街上享用平民美食的地方呀~
It looks different than the night market in Taiwan. The restaurants are on the side of the street, but people eat at the middle of the street. The restaurants don't have to prepare tables for the customers. It's interesting.
多走幾步路之後,景色從餐廳利換成販售小東西的商家,這些商家占據了街道空間,只剩中間窄窄的一條通道可供行人行走,覺得很像是台北的夜市,只是,都沒有賣吃的店家,而我偏偏對逛這些小東西沒啥興趣,就覺得有點無聊了。
When go north, the style changes. The restaurants get fewer, and more stores to sell some interesting things. But this looks like the night market in Taipei which become a little bit boring to me. So I try to bypass the section to find Hing Kee where I would like to have my dinner.
興記煲仔飯位於整個廟街夜市的北邊,若從佐敦道的入口起算,大約要走15到20分鐘,如果中途有停下來逛逛那些小攤位,可能需時更久。
The Hing Kee Restaurant is located at north of the Temple Street. If you don't stay for the small stores in the night market, it's around 15 to 20 minutes walk.
當我抵達時興記時,其實我是很迷惑的,為什麼有這麼的店面都掛著「興記」的招牌?哪家才是真正的興記呀?我還特地上網確認網友的照片,對了招牌之後才進來,結果一看菜單,原來這附近的六家興記都是同一家,真的是太~誇張了~
When I sit down, I found one thing on the menu which shocks me. Before get in, I was hesitate which Hing Kee is the right one? There are so many nearby. Now, I get it. All 6 Hing Kee are the same one. This cannot happen in Taiwan, have branches so close.
這兒有五六十種煲仔飯,因為是獨自一人,乾脆就點一碗最出名的招牌─北菇滑雞煲仔飯,要價港幣48元,還算平價。
I just order the famous rice in pot, the Chicken & Black Mushrooms w/Rice Pot which costs 48 Hong Kong dollars.
當煲仔飯上桌時,那個鍋看起來好有味道,很有老店的感覺,蓋子一掀開,撲鼻的飯香與雞肉香味,不自覺地會流口水,再淋上店家的醬油,攪拌一翻,光是畫面與氣味就讓人食指大動,粒粒分明的泰國香米,搭配香菇與有嚼勁的雞腿肉,真是好吃極了;稍微有點麻煩的就是要啃一下雞腿肉的骨頭,若是換成無骨雞腿肉,不知香味是不是就少了點。店家另外有自製的羅漢果茶,搭著煲仔飯吃也挺不錯的!
It looks so unique when the waiter put the pot on my table. The pot really looks like was used for decades. When open it, the smell is so enticing and finger licking. Put some soy sauce and stir the rice, the smell even better. The taste is simple, but delicious. Only one thing is not that good, there are bones of the chicken thigh.
