This week was given a boost by tacos and margaritas at Te Quiero Mucho in Sheung Wan.

We had an Al Pastor - spit-grilled pork with fresh pineapple - and a Guac & Chap - guacamole, pico de gallo, fried grasshoppers, crumbled cheese.

The grasshoppers were so good we asked for a side order!

Their Taco Tuesday is a great deal and the staff are lovely.

Sometimes you just need a steaming hot bowl of wonton mein! A Hong Kong classic and go-to comfort food.

Had some delicious tea cocktails - including a Tangerine Puerh Rum - recently Plantation by Teakha 茶莊 on Po Tuck Street, Sai Ying Pun.

Love the vibe of this place, too - chilled, relaxed, and calming. A sweet spot to escape to with friends. Just lovely!

Another restaurant closes - been so many in Hong Kong in the last couple of years - and another opens.

The Indian on High Street, Sai Ying Pun is turning into a kebab place.

Hope its going to do a good shawarma. Many in the neighbourhood would love that!
