more friends!!!!

 Julian's cousin took us to DING TAI FUNG in Causeway Bay which is a Taiwanese restaurant but serves up Shanghai food! :) (my cousin told me that).. and at the front when you walk in, you'll see a small kitchen to the right and thats where the magic happens!!! aka make dumplings... there's like 12 people in there!!




 cucumbers with chilli ... i must say, i've had better.. and my grandma makes it much better too hehe! she's shanghai!


 this is a bean curd dish... it's kind of traditional in shanghai food?? i'm not sure..but either way, i was introduced to this by my grandma. and I LOVE IT....

the soup dumplings were also okay..not enough soup!!  and also really doughy and chewy (the skin).. and i have to say.. the best soup dumplings EVER are in new york city .. called joe's shanghai....(also because my grandparents live in jersey).. do i sound like a shanghai food snob?? lol!


i've never seen these before... but they were cool! they look like money pouches!! but inside was glutinous rice! so cute!

 we ordered ONE veggie and pork bun.. didn't know it'd be one bun and not one serving lol...







 afterwards we went to an arcade..they have sooo many cool arcade vending machines...

 omg these were so hilarious.. we played mario kart (as if we were playing daytona) and they take pics of you before you play ... lol thers me at the bottom right.. lol so funny!!

 headed to SOGO again.. which is a big huge department store...and at the bottom level is a grocery store.. and we bought MILK PUDDING!! SOO GOOD!!!




 at night time i went to eat with my aunt and dad.. we had BO JAI FAN!.. aka ceramic pot rice.... (sounds cuter in chinese).. they pour water and raw rice in...top it off with some meat and/or salty egg and cook it for like 20 minutes...




 we got oyster pancake!


^_^

 met up with friends again to go for desserts ... and this is Sharon's huge list of places to eat!!
