Homemade wonton and gyozas... took the plunge with the mattress!!

We did it. Spent a fortune on king sized brand name mattress. Stephen is convinced the top 3 mattress vendors mix up all the brand names and model numbers so you can't read reviews; but there are globally only a handful of different models. Oh well. We're knowing suckers. Now onto the expensive sheet sets, mattress covers, bedframe and re-organizing our home to accommodate this new king(dom).


Anyway also found wonderful non frozen locally made wonton and gyoza wrappers at Wellcome Superstore (24 hours, Causeway Bay near Ikea). They taste better than they look the photos - steamed was way better this time; last time the wrappers were thinner so fried gyozas rocked. Unfortunately the won ton wrappers were gigantic so some were envelope-like!  All in all, I really enjoy making wontons and gyozas from scratch!


To add to our shopping misery, we caved and bought an air cleaner which is totally needed given the bad air and non stop air con in HK.



Now... off to Taipei and Beijing this week again.  But our guests shall be more comfortable enjoying our current double bed!  Have a great week everyone!
