Dim Sum and then some


This past Tuesday a bunch of us got together to eat some traditional dim sum. We went to a place called Star Seaworld (or something else lost in translation) and ordered a bunch of different platters to try a bunch of different stuff. The dishes included but where not limited to shrimp dumplings, pork buns, egg yoak buns, soup dumplings, and my least favorite: chicken feet. Apparently it is a custom to suck the meat out of the bony fingers of a chicken. I would much rather eat the snake again rather than that last one.

Afterwards I headed to class and then the Taiwanese embassy to apply for a visa for a possible trip. I just got a new passport and have almost filled half of it already.

We headed to Mr. Wongs for dinner and then hit up the bars in Wan Chai. This Tuesday we went to one called Carnegies, world renowned for its 10hkd-you-call-it.


After a couple whiskey-cokes we thought it would be a good idea to get on top of the bar. Surprisingly it  actually was. We got free drinks from there on. Afterwards a couple of creepy asians and old people started to crawl up there so we got down. My friend Phillip (Swedish) got so drunk that he started dropping his beers and shattering glass all over the floor; the bar did not like it that much so they kicked him out.

 Hopefully we'll be allowed in next Tuesday because it is too good of a deal to let go by.
