Looking back
The SD Foodie take
Editorial commentary written from Roger’s original photograph and caption. Roger’s own words are the quoted photo note above.
A cha chaan teng-style set: rice topped with slices of roast meats, ham, a salted egg and gai lan, with a side of ginger-scallion sauce and Hong Kong milk tea in a Black & White cup.
Six treasures sounds like abundance, and the caption admits the portions were a bit small that day. It is a fair, specific critique — the meal still did its job, but it did not feel like a bargain.
The quick critique
What stood out
- Six kinds of topping on one plate
- Salted egg and gai lan
- Milk tea in a Black & White cup
Bottom line
Archive verdict
Satisfying but small that day — a useful reminder that even a six-treasure plate can come up short.
