Tuesday Steak Buy-One-Get-One-Free

Recently discovered that a Western restaurant offers a buy-one-get-one-free steak deal every Tuesday. Quite a bargain! They have organic ribeye steak, each serving for $298. The steak was cooked well. We ordered medium rare, and it was juicy and not tough. The marbling was just right, so it wasn't too greasy. For appetizers, we had bell peppers 🫑. We had champagne and red wine for drinks, which paired excellently with the steak. For dessert, we chose between dark chocolate cake and purple sweet potato cake, both of which tasted good. 📍Orka Restaurant & Specialty Cafe G/F, 36 Wyndham Street, Central

City Walk at Central, Hong Kong 🇭🇰

#weekendgetaways 📍Central, Hong Kong Spent half a day strolling around Central and it was such a cozy and nice area to hang out! There are a few places that we went for food, pastries, sight seeing vantage points, photo spots. So here’s some of the places that we visited: 1. The Peak One of the must visit places in Central would be The Peak. Visitors can choose to take the tram, bus or hike up to the peak. The view was simply breathtaking and stunning, 10/10 recommending this! 2. Pottinger Street Popular spot for photo shoots and movie scenes with its unevenly paved stairs. Lots of kiosks and quaint cafes at this area. 3. Fringe Club Very cute place for photoshoot 4. Some of the food that we tried: Lan Fong Yuen milk tea, long queue, worth a try Bakehouse egg tarts, would recommend to give it a try! #hongkongtravelguide

Review of Samdor Noodle, a popular local eatery in Central, Hong Kong.

⏰ Weekdays: 9:00 AM - 8:00 PM ⏰ Saturdays: 9:00 AM - 5:30 PM (Closed every Sunday) 📍 28 Pottinger St, Central, Hong Kong Today, I'm sharing my experience at Samdor Noodle, a well-known local restaurant in Central, Hong Kong. Samdor Noodle has a high rating on Google Maps, so I decided to give it a try. The restaurant isn't very spacious, with tables for 2, 3, and 4 people, and sharing tables is a must. Even if you're alone at a 2-person table, you'll likely share it with others. Since it's a noodle place, the turnover rate is quite fast. Most of the customers were locals dining alone. The owner is very attentive, making sure to check on each table, which made dining here very comfortable. I ordered the egg noodles with meatballs, and the broth was very clean. The meatballs had cilantro in them, giving them a distinct aroma. I also ordered choi sum to go with the wontons. The choi sum at Samdor Noodle was tender and easy to eat in one bite, with a slightly tangy flavor from the oyster sauce on top. Samdor Noodle is a great spot for those looking for a local eatery in Central or a place to dine alone in Hong Kong. If you don't like cilantro, I recommend trying the shrimp wontons instead.

Wow

#hk Central is Hong Kong’s frenetic business and retail heart, crammed with skyscrapers, swanky malls and luxury hotels. Iconic Victoria Harbor is filled with ferries and traditional boats. The neighborhood is known for nightlife, with raucous pubs and nightclubs in Lan Kwai Fong, and wine bars and trendy restaurants in nearby SoHo. Away from the bustle, are Hong Kong Park and the Zoological and Botanical Gardens.
