Sheung Wan's Hidden Fusion Cuisine – A Must-Try Extraordinary Seafood Rice
After work, I passed by Hollywood Road and noticed a crowd of foreigners drinking and chatting in front of a restaurant. It turned out to be a newly opened bar and restaurant. So I decided to invite my husband to try something new! The restaurant's decor is stylish and the atmosphere is quite inviting, specializing in fusion cuisine, each dish was a delightful surprise!
Spanish crispy fish $128
This appetizer was very appetizing, fried to a delicious crispiness. The seasoning was somewhat similar to the sauce used in sweet and sour pork, allowing for small, flavorful bites without feeling greasy.
Low-temperature slow-cooked full-blood Australian Wagyu Char Siu $428
Full-blood Australian Wagyu? The name is quite intriguing. A quick Google search revealed that it refers to Wagyu cattle bred from purebred bulls and cows for at least four generations, a rare find ensuring excellent pedigree. The restaurant cooked the Wagyu in the style of Char Siu, which was unexpected! Due to the low-temperature slow cooking, the meat was incredibly tender, and you could clearly see the gradient in the meat! The middle was a tender pink, rich in flavor, with a full beef taste, yet with a hint of Char Siu, quite innovative! The portion was also generous, with two large pieces per person.
SOW Seafood Rice $298
Named after the restaurant, this must be their signature seafood rice dish! Also prepared with a fusion technique – the seafood included oilfish, large prawns, scallops, salmon, and salmon roe, all prepared with a Japanese searing method, each ingredient was fresh and sweet to the taste! What was most unexpected and impressive was the rice at the bottom, reminiscent of Spanish seafood rice, but with the addition of meat sausage, which tasted a bit like Chinese sausage? There was also a hint of black bean flavor? The rice grains were plump and full, soaked with essence, very tantalizing!!

时别5年,在此来到香港旅游,结果遇上了百年不遇的黑雨,香港多区都水灾。今次住在上环,庆幸自己没有太受到水灾影响,上环都中环的交通都很方便,最爱搭叮叮车。
I’ve been to HK before but this side of HK I had never seen. A maze of narrow steep lanes full of life, people moving, sitting, eating. A myriad of smells coming from the eateries that are all decorated uniquely like an eccentric individual that makes you stand and stare at their confidence. Previously I would just visit the tourist destinations for a quick shopping trip and I am pretty sure many from the mainland do the same unbeknown to them that this beauty away from air conditioned malls and the usual sights is hidden in plain sight behind the large skyscrapers slightly West of Central Station.
the dim sum(蓮香) at Sheung Wan HK, a must-visit Chinese traditional cafe, loved it!😋👍🏻✨
Sheung Wan is the most famous commercial and commercial district in Hong Kong, located in the Central and Western District of Hong Kong Island.
Sheung Wan ferry terminal to catch the ferry to Macao. Went for a walk around the bay to catch the nice view.
Very suitable for taking pictures, the streets up and down, very old Hong Kong film feeling, personally think that here is more tasteful than Central. Choose a good time and best to bring a long-focus lens, not afraid of not being able to shoot a good film.
heading to HK Macau Ferry Terminal via Sheung Wan MTR station, Exit D - it’s easier with the clear signboard direction given.👍🏻✨✨
