Worthwhile Hong Kong Food Experiences - aka Fatty Time

I have been a real gluttony the past few days, having too many awesome food experiences. Too often, I have been going to expat-centric dull food experiences that really became quite bland after awhile. This weekend, I am proud to report that all my food experiences have been quite worthwhile for the undertaking.

Friday evening, a group of us embarked on a journey to Dehli Club in ChengKing Mansion in TST. For those who live in Hong Kong, the address should immediately give away the experience. For those who do not live in Hong Kong, it is one of the shadiest buildings in Hong Kong. All sorts of people hover outside, soliciting and catcalling. The elevator ride itself could almost kill you. When you walk in, 10 Indian guys will rush over trying to take you to their Indian restaurant, whether its Taj Mahal Club or whatever. Delhi Club is one of the most famous one. Once you sit inside, the food is absolutely amazing. Some of the best Indian food I have ever had. You don't even need to order, just tell the waiter what you want and he'll bring it out. With plenty of beer and way too much food, we only managed to spend $150 (~$20US) each for a table of 10 people, which big groups always charge up a huge big. To top off the evening, one of our more color friends also brought a magnum bottle of champagne for the table. I think the bottle was worth more than the entire meal, combined.

On Sat Evening, I went to Sushi One in Mongkok, where if you go after 10PM, it's 50% off sushi and it's pretty good. The line is usually extremely long but our friend lined up at 8PM for us, so we managed to sit down immediately at 10PM. We ordered SOOOO much sushi, plate after plate it kept on coming. The mango salmon sushi was definitely my favorite but everything was great. We got so full that we felt terrible everytime a new plate came out. But the sushi was just sooo good that we couldn't stop eating. The quality of sushi is actually quite high. For all of that, we only spent $200 each (less than $30US). That was definitely a steal for the ages.
