Seafood is any form of sea life regarded as food by humans. Seafood prominently includes fish and shellfish. Shellfish include various species ofmolluscs, crustaceans, and echinoderms. Historically, sea mammals such as whales and dophins have been consumed as food, though that happens to a lesser extent these days. Edible sea plants, such as some seaweeds andmicroalgae, are widely eaten as seafood around the world, especially in Asia (see the category of sea vegetables). In North America, although not generally in the United Kingdom, the term "seafood" is extended to fresh waterorganisms eaten by humans, so all edible aquatic life may be referred to as seafood. For the sake of completeness, this article includes all edible aquatic life.
BACKGROUND
Modern Hong Kong has a predominantly service-based economy,[2] and restaurant businesses serve as a main economic contributor. With the third-densest population per square meters in the world and serving a population of 7 million,[3] Hong Kong is host to a restaurant industry with intense competition. Due to its small geographical size, Hong Kong contains a high number of restaurants per unit area.
With Chinese ethnicity making up 98% of the resident population,[4] Chinese cuisine is naturally served at home. A majority of Chinese in Hong Kong are Cantonese in addition to sizeable numbers of Hakka, Teochew and Shanghainese people, and home dishes areCantonese with occasional mixes of the other three types of cuisines. Rice is predominantly the main staple for home meals. Home ingredients are picked up from local grocery stores and independent produce shops, although supermarkets have become progressively more popular.
Hong Kong homes and kitchens tend to be small due to a high population density, and traditional Chinese cuisine often requires the freshest possible ingredients, so food shopping is undertaken frequently and in smaller quantities than is now usual in the West. Take-out and dining out is also very common, since people are often too busy to cook with an average 47-hour work week.
Fortune Hongkong Seafood Restaurant
A new restaurant in Dagupan City inside Metro Plaza beside Mang Inasal is Fortune Hongkong Seafood Restaurant. We know that it is cheaper to eat at Mang Inasal, due to long queue and limited space we found Fortune Hongkong Seafood Restaurant is very welcoming & more tables are available. It is very Chinese ambiance, red cloth, red danglings, waitress are in red silk dress and it is a warm fancy dine in. We were welcomed and ask to sit to place an order. It is new restaurant and my first time to order on their menu. There are lot of choices but I was looking for good for 4 persons.
Here's what's on their MENU:
