Most older Chinese cities (well, Hong Kong is at least part of the cultural background) had their trades organized in streets (very much like Europe as well). So we headed to the Hong Kong street for dried ingredients from the sea…
As it is a maritime city there is plenty of seafood and especially ingredients which are dried, pickled, sliced, chopped, etc. and then added to whatever you can imagine – so there is a plethora of ingredients as well.
Dried jellyfish, mussels, snails, toads, centipedes…
you name it
and always in between a small slot where a new high-rise is being built
More like a warehouse
some things I wouldn’t like to identify on the original animal
drying mussels
warden of the yard
nice and proper
and cleaning everywhere
people gather in public food-halls for cheap (but very good) grub
have fun and laugh
up and down it goes
to the inside markets
a little bit drab
and solemn
bamboo is used for any kind of scaffolding as well
as we wanted to experience a bit of art we went into some galleries. This one had a very nicely made entry hall…
