Hong Kong by day shines just as brightly. The city has a well-deserved
reputation as a dining and shopping paradise. It serves up some of the best
Chinese cuisine in the world, and the shops have visitors from all over opening
their wallets.
Dining is certainly one of the highlights of Hong Kong. Outstanding Chinese
cuisine can be easily found here, like roast goose. Traditional cooking methods
are well preserved, as well as authentic flavors. The momentum of the Hong Kong
economy in recent years has ensured the local catering industry handsome
profits.
Kan Kun-Sing, owner Yung Kee restaurant, said, "Our business in the past
decade was much better than before because Hong Kong remains a financial center
and the economy is pretty good. Besides, more tourists are coming from the
mainland and that has been really good for business. "
Dim Sum is another Hong Kong specialty. Steamed prawn dumplings, sponge cake
and pork dumplings are just a few of the delicious mouthfuls.
Western cuisine also has a place on Hong Kong tables.
The huge flow of people and the wealth they bring have attracted many of the
world's finest chefs and restaurants.
