AUSOM Class of 2012 Graduation Trip: Day 1 of 4

Day 1 (3.139 Stir-Fried Flat Noodles in Soy Sauce)
Day 2 (3.140 Noodles with Shrimp and Squash)
Day 3 (3.141 Flying Roast Goose)
Day 4 (3.142 Roasted Goose)

In Hong Kong. Here to facilitate the graduation trip for AUSOM’s Class of 2012, which I helped to organize. Any opportunity to visit my favorite food city in the world, to gorge on my favorite cuisine at its source – Cantonese – I’ll take it, gratefully.

For the first day of the trip, however, everyone stayed at the Disney Hollywood Hotel, purely because it was the cheapest block booking that the school could make, nothing to do with the theme park. The professors were unanimously too tired/lazy/indifferent to do anything upon arrival, so we had lunch together and went our separate ways. Armed with an overly generous food allowance, I would’ve gone nuts for dinner in one of the restaurants, or via room service, or both, but this sorry-ass hotel had only a café and a bar and a convenience store on the premises, and it was too remotely located to go elsewhere, so I opted for a few takeout snacks from the bar. What a wasted first day.
