Hong Kong – Gourmet Food And Accommodation Paradise
Topics: hong kong hotel booking, hong kong hotel online, hong kong hotel kowloon, Asia luxury holidays, Asia
Until a little over ten years ago, Hong Kong was a British colony, despite its positioning in the heart of Asia, and within almost a stone’s throw of China. This European twist in its history, combined with the Asian love of distinctive flavors and food, has made Hong Kong a unique gourmet food paradise.
However, the economic and political freedoms of Hong Kong, and its unique history, make it a part of China that is also a gourmet accommodation paradise, with five-star Hong Kong hotels aplenty and pamperingly attentive service to go with them. Here we look at the best of both sides of the gourmet coin in Hong Kong.
The first thing you will want to do on arrival in Hong Kong is wash away the airplane-air, dump your luggage somewhere and enjoy the peace of not sitting next to a stranger for a little while! For those that enjoy the finer things in life, Hong Kong hotels like Shangri-La hotel Kowloon are a delight to the senses.
The staff at Shangri-La hotels all over the world is known as some of the warmest and most caring, anticipating your every need and acting to help you with grace and alacrity. This Hong Kong hotel in Kowloon has been honored many times, with recognition of its dedication to guests in awards and certificates.
The Hong Kong hotel rooms at Shangri-La feature modern conveniences like iPod docks, broadband access, home theatre systems and even an LCD television in the bathroom. There are kitchenettes, separate dining and sitting areas in the suites, which also feature luxury amenities and pillow menus. Splendid views make these Hong Kong hotel rooms the icing on the cake of your luxury Asian vacation.
The Excelsior, Hong Kong is another Hong Kong luxury hotel that caters to the gourmands among us. It actually stands on the very first plot of land sold at auction when Hong Kong became a colony of Britain in 1841. Tastefully designed suites and excellent on-site restaurants fuse the gourmet experience of each of your senses. Snacks and cocktails, tea and coffee and even complimentary breakfast are all provided in the Executive Lounge at the Excelsior Hong Kong hotel.
Once you have settled into the Chinese island life with a luxury Hong Kong hotel room, look for taste treats and light refreshment at Hong Kong teahouses for an authentic experience. Yuen yeung is a 50-50 mixture of tea and coffee, the unique flavour of which is extremely popular in Hong Kong. Bor law yau is a sweet bun served steaming hot with melting butter inside a mouth-watering treat best followed with a refreshing walk!
Wonton noodles or snack dishes of fish or beef are also available at gourmet Hong Kong tea houses. If you are looking for something heavier but still authentically Hong Kong, try Bay Phoon town or Causeway Bay Spicy Crab.
The British part of Hong Kong’s past has given rise to some delectable international restaurants, set among the glades of trees at the center of the city. Phillipine and Mexican restaurants, as well as Portuguese-inspired dishes can be found.
Squid, octopus and cod are all popular – Hong Kong’s sea air gives fresh seafood a unique natural flavoring. Try Beira Dos Namarados, a unique and popular choice, for Hong Kong international gourmet cuisine to complement your Hong Kong ‘gourmet’ hotel.
Hong Kong-based Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts – www.shangri-la.com – manages 54 hotels under Shangri-La and Traders brands with a rooms inventory of over 27,000. Shangri-La hotels are five-star deluxe properties featuring extensive luxury facilities and services.
