Some friends have asked me before whereabout the good places for food in Yuen Long. My answer is always the same: come in the evening, you'll will see it yourself. As they are not easy to spot during the day.

Green Bean Dessert
Green beans with herbal rue 芸香 ( 香草、臭草 ) is a popular dessert for southern Chinese. Herbal rue smells good from a distance, but may be awkward when getting close for some people. Therefore its chinese name contains both good and bad smell. Herbal rue can also be used to drive mosquitos and small inserts away because of its smell. No matter you use rue from markets or your own pot, pick the ones with fragrance, without the fragrance, they don't achieve their purpose.
Green beans herbal rue is particularly welcome in the summer as it helps dissipate your body heat.

Some pictures were taken from the fly wheel as it's only $10 for senior citizens. It goes 3 rounds. The 1st two stop regularly at good spots allowing passengers to take photos from above. The last round runs quickly for a good recap. No complaints for non senior citizens as all they need to pay is only $20.
懷璧其罪
May 14, 20:34, at the Central flyover on the eastern side of IFC 1 heading to the marine museum, five nice young teens got seized by a police squad. They're all looked very decent to me. However,they were all wearing the same Nike black shirt. It reminds me an old saying: 匹夫無罪,懷璧其罪。

mixed vegies
I cook and I cook for myself rather than for others. I'm not demonstrating how to cook here because I'm no chef, just a domesticated home fellow. I'm showing some pictures here so that I can refer and won't forget how to cook pumpkin with mixed vegetables.
泰國招財神佛
今日原本寫了一篇關於世人求財及泰國招財神佛方面短篇, 其中有涉及近年的泰國新寵。 原本已經編輯好圖文, 打算發表。 在發表之前, 有些隱憂, 因為「子不語怪力亂行」。 心下有保留, 究竟應唔應該發表, 因為怕有妖邪從中作祟。 正所謂禍福無門, 為人自招。 正當把一切放進 face...

我不是戲行中人,也沒有看過多少齣戲,我基本上不懂看五線譜,分辨不到音調。粵曲裡的五音六律,我從未接觸過,對曲目詞牌也認識不多。我對戲曲的認識也只限於曲辭,旋律和故事。年少時聽的是港人熟識的'帝女花' 和'鳳閣恩仇未了情'。我對粵曲的愛好源自對曲...
