Dinner on Lamma Island

The last night of the summit, a couple dozen people got together to visit a seafood restaurant on Lamma Island. Located off the southwest coast of Hong Kong island, Lamma is famous for its fishing villages, quiet beaches and good food.

"We set off for the boat landing at 6:30, walking a few blocks to the shore, next to an ornate sculptured garden that was to be a private park used by Cyberport's most exclusive business residents. The group climbed aboard the boat, going upstairs to its upper deck to enjoy the salt spray and the wind on our faces. The boat ride offered us a beautiful view of Hong Kong's Aberdeen skyline, as well as the greenery of Lamma and the surrounding outlying islands...."

"For the next couple of hours we enjoyed an eight-course seafood meal, a sumptuous selection of fried octopus, boiled shrimp, steamed langostinos, abalone on the halfshell, and crispy grouper for the main course. For people who came from countries with a limited amount of fresh seafood, it was an exciting experience; for the rest of us it was merely delicious...."
