Tune Hotels @ KLIA 2

During my last holiday trip, me and my mom stayed overnite at Tune Hotels KLIA 2.  This is my first time there.  There is no shuttle bus like last time at LCCT anymore we have to walk all the way to the hotel.  We make a big round and round cause I cannot find the covered path there.  Silly me...RLOL.  When I reach the main door of the hotel only to realize that the covered corridor is so so near.

This tune hotels is a full service hotel as they has include the toiletries, aircond, entertainment and wifi.  This is better than the old tune hotel at LCCT. The room is much nicer and bigger. The price of the room is almost the same with LCCT tune hotels just that this has more facilities.

My AirAsia Free Seats!

If I had 10 AirAsia Free Seats, I would go to Hong Kong and I'd bring along my mom and mom's 2 sisters, my friend who has been there for me when I am down and who is there to celebrate my up time. My childhood friend who has been dreaming to travel internationally and my follower who has been loyal to me.

My mom always love to watch Hong Kong drama series and she always tell that one of this day she wanted to visit Hong Kong exprience it herself.  I have been to Hong Kong beginning of this year but I would love to bring her with me if I have the 10 free seats.

Hong Kong 2014 - Day 2 : Joy Hing Roasted Meat 再興燒臘飯店

Cantonese is famous for their BBQ pork, duck and goose.  One thing that you must eat when you are in Hong Kong is their Cantonese BBQ.  For second day dinner we decided to find some good cantonese BBQ shop.  We found a place where it was recommended by a lot of the local in OpenRice.

Quoted from Wikipedia history of Joy Hing Roasted Meat.
The business, run by a Teochew family, dates back to the late Qing Dynasty when the family started the first Cantonese Roasted Shop in Guangdong. The business moved to Heard Street, Wanchai, Hong Kong at the turn of the 20th Century as a dai pai dong, an open-air food stall.[1]
Its operation was terminated during the invasion of Japanese Troops in Hong Kong in 1941. After the war, it was named as Fuk Hing literally renaissance. The present name, Joy Hing, literally referring to "continuity of prosperity", was given a decade later, based on a superstitious thought that it could help prosper its business. Since then, the style of cooking remained largely unchanged.
With the rapid development of Wanchai into one of the Central Business Districts, the location of its old food stall was placed under removal order in 1980s. The shop moved to its current premises on Hennessy Road at the time.

When we reach the shop we wanted BBQ goose but it was not available.  The owner said if we want we can order and come back tomorrow.  The shop is really small. We are sitted at the corner there are 5 of us.  We squeezed into the corner and we can't even turn around.  This is a place where you eat and go there is no place for you to hang out and sit around.

We ordered different type of mix so we can try each of the type.  Their Char Siew is really good.  It was BBQ to perfection it was not dry and very tender and it has the well balance of sweetness and saltiness.  You can taste the smokey taste on it.  The BBQ duck and chicken is really good too.  It was well done and not over cooked.  The meat is tender and juicy.

Hong Kong 2014 - Day 2 : Lan Fong Yuen (蘭芳園)

Next stop is Lan Fong Yuen (蘭芳園) to have our brunch Gage Street.  We took more than hour to find the place. From a lot of review on the net they are famous for their milk tea  which is known as pantyhose milk tea in Hong Kong (絲襪奶茶). Basically is something like our Teh C / Teh C Peng here.
