來到香港,似乎不能不去吃個飲茶,第一天晚上Google了一番,就在第二天一早,搭著地鐵,來到位於大會堂二樓的美心皇宮吃飲茶,就如上圖,外觀上完全沒有招牌,一點都不像是餐廳,但是,不用懷疑,殺進去直上二樓,就會發現許多人在美心皇宮外面排隊。
Yum cha, also known as going for dim sum, is a type of Chinese style brunch tea, which involves drinking Chinese tea and eating dim sum. Hong Kong is a place which famous of the culture of Yum cha. This morning, I go to the City Hall Maxim's Palace to try Yum cha.
這一台就是排隊機,依人數不同分成不同的組別在排序,我在週日早上十點半左右抵達,要等大約20組人,不過中間似乎有些人等不及離開了,最後只等了約30分鐘,十組左右就可以入內用餐了。
This restaurant is so famous, so it has a kiosk for waiting.Just input how many people of your group, and you will know how many groups are in front of you. For example, I wait for about 20 groups, it takes only 30 minutes I guess. I don't know why, but some people just get the ticket and leave. I guess I may only wait for 10 groups of two people. And the time I arrived is around 10:30 A.M. at Sunday morning.
坐定位之後,基本上就沒有人會來招呼了,接下來就是跟從桌旁經過的侍者拿點心了;在此之前,看了下菜單,基本茶資,一人19港幣(假日),且每樣心在港幣35~56元之間,老實說,真的是貴呀!看到價格的當下,我就覺得回台灣之後,應該找家飲茶店好好地吃吃這些點心,印象中,台北的飲茶餐廳不是每樣點心只要台幣50~100元,價格怎麼會差這麼多呀!
The menu. For the tea, it's 19 HKD per person on holiday. For weekdays is 17 HKD. For dim sum is from HKD 35 to 56. When I know the price, the first idea come to my mind is I have to eat yum cha in Taiwan when I back to Taipei. As I remember, the price of dim sum in Taipei is TWD 50 to 100, which means only 1/2 compares to here...
既來之則安之,先吃個過癮再說,等了五到十分鐘之後,終於看到推車經過,選了奶皇流沙包,沒想到,內饀反而沒有台灣那麼地飽滿,不用那麼小心,不會流得到處都是。
Anyway, since I'm here. I should try all the dim sum I want. Wait for about 5 to 10 minutes, I find the first thing I want, the Steamed egg custard bun.
鮮蝦腸粉,這是一道十分簡單的美味料理,加點醬油,有嚼勁又有味道。
The steamed rice flour rolls.
蝦餃,我覺得裡面應該還有蟹腳,一口咬下,海鮮的味道超級濃郁,超好吃,在台灣真的是沒吃過。
The shrimp har kau.
粉蒸鳳爪,味道上和台北差不多,不過我覺得比台北吃到的更軟嫰,口感上更好吃。
The steamed chicken feet.
灌湯包,這一道我覺得普通,雖然可看到有不少干貝,口味上不算突出。
The steamed dumping with shrimp and scallop in superior soup.
蟹肉燒賣,不知道是不是差不多吃飽了的關係,這道燒賣我覺得還好。
The pork siu mai with crab roe.
這一餐吃下來,總價大約400港幣,是我在香港,最貴的一餐,呵~
