Maxim's

It's time for a food pix ;-)...that's our dinner at the Maxim's restaurant (yes, same name as the famous one in Paris). Maxim's is a restaurant chain, it is usually not the best place for adventurous gourmet seekers but definitely a safe place for tourists or sometimes, for locals who are looking for more basic dishes.
Btw, how's your chopsticks skill? Since I was holding the camera, I couldn't show you the perfect way...maybe next time.

Modesty? I'm sure you can do pirouettes with chopsticks, hold the camera at the same time and are worthy of a place on a top chopstick dexterity display team. As for me, I can pick up large things (about the size of a ping pong ball, although not spherical -heaven forbid) but usually end up asking for a fork.

That all looks yummy. Is it true that people in Hong Kong enjoy going out to eat at least twice a week?
