"Gourmet Paradise"??

China is world famous for its eclectic cuisine so I decided a trip to a chinese restaurant was a good way of trying to get closer to the culture in Hong Kong, plus it would be a tasty bit of research! So, on the weekend I visited Dragon-i restaurant in Newcastle.

Dragon-i boasts dishes from mainland China which are very close to authentic recipes. So, I felt very willing to experiment with more exotic dishes like sliced eels with black bean sauce, duck tongue dim sum and chickens feet!  I can’t say any of these dishes have made it into my regular diet, but it was a good experience tasting some of the food which would be eaten in Hong Kong.
