Hong Kong Seafood Hut, Melbourne, Australia


Lobster, all 4 kgs worth

When we all headed back to Melbourne for Yuey's wedding, we were lucky enough that Ron made the trip back with us. Ron's Dad used to be in the seafood trading business so he has access to the most wonderful edible specimens of the underwater creatures.

But with all the great seafood, you need someone with a good wok to dish it all up. Because of Ron's Dad's connections, we also managed to convince the Hong Kong Seafood Hut, just off Glenferrie Rd in Hawthorn, to serve up the 4 kgs of lobster for us. And the chef really did it justice with the traditional ginger and scallion stirfry, served on a bed of noodles. No one was surprised that there wasn't much left standing after a while.

Divine. Absolutely divine.

P.S. Of course, you need to have good connections to get fresh seafood. The good connections is more relevant from a price perspective. The restaurant itself has a range of excellent live seafood in its tanks.
