Mid-Autumn Lamma Island / 南丫島 。亚婆豆腐花

I have now returned to HK from the UK for nearly 13 years ..... actually, it's a pretty small place, so I really dunno why I had previously time and time again overlooked visiting the Territory's third largest Island - Lamma Island .... always opting for the other Outlying Islands, Cheung Chau, Lantau or Peng Chau instead .... strange!

Wiki on Lamma for those interested .... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamma_Island

Anyway, on this sun-drenched Mid-Autumn day with nothing much-ado planned after a lazy morning .... it was spontaneously decided upon to take the ferry ride and have a late lunch there and gentle stroll .... geez, it was hot! (33C today)

It was 3pm when we got off the ferry and I was really hungry ..... we just made a dash for the nearest okay looking place to fill-up the belly .... it happened to be a seafood restaurant ....

Clams in Black Bean Sauce, "Tung Choi" with Preserved Shrimp Paste & Chilli, Mixed Vegetable Egg FooYong and Steamed Buns with Condensed Milk ....

Throughout HK, Lamma Island's legendary "GrandMa's Tofu Dessert Stall" is often spoken of in the highest order by dessert-lovers ...  meaning that our main after-lunch activity was to seek out Grandma for this fat-boy to try out her "tofu-flower" ... haha!

GrandMa was there too .... personally serving-up a long long queue of customers, her big bowls of delicious tofu dessert at $7 a bowl ..... incredible value!

YUMMY!

Mid-Autumn conclusion .... Lamma Island is a nice place - I mustn't overlook visiting regularly any longer ...
