    Great said from Kai Ling. Here is another way to say:

    我整咗杯奶,加咗啲蜜糖 / 蜂蜜落去  I made milk with a little honey in it.


    For native speaker, we usually say 杯奶 rather than saying full phrase of 牛奶。Cantonese can be lazy to use short form :)
    花蜜 and 蜂蜜 are the categories under 蜜糖. I would say 蜜糖/蜂蜜 makes more sense on milk to me as I think 花蜜 is more watery and more for tea. 
    Besides, you can also use 啲,which is same as 少少。

    I think it really depends on how Lucky Deli translates food and food variety (if they are dim sum or Chinese food in other regions in China). For 角 is more on telling you the shape and texture of food. It is always harder outside, like deep-fried / pastry / fritter, with meat / veggies / sweet filling inside. But 餃 has many cooking methods, can be steamed 蒸餃, fried煎餃, deep-fried 炸餃. Very diverse in texture (from soft to crispy outside, with meat/veggies inside). Usually no sweet filling. Specifically in your case: 蝦餃, 海鮮餃, 韭菜餃 (all steamed for these examples) vs. 奶王角, 豆沙角 (deep-fired and sweet inside), 叉燒角 (pastry, savory and slightly sweet bbq pork inside)

    Well said Dennis! This is the most interesting part of HK Cantonese when the east meets the west - blended English and Cantonese in the sentences.

    And Phil, I think we usually pronounce original English tones in the middle of Cantonese sentence, unless we completely change such English words to Canton Chinese words then words would carry tones.

    E.g.: I want to take taxi. 
    我想  take taxi (original English pronunciations)
    我想  搭的士 (daap3 dik1 si2) --> have Cantonese tones

    你会骑自行车吗?--> Do you know how to ride a bike? (会 in this sentence somehow refers to your knowledge/ability/ skill level. E.g. you can say 会打网球 or 会做菜, and these are your know-how) 你可以骑自行车吗?--> Can you ride a bike?

    As a Chinese it's pretty hard to explain the general meaning of 就 to you. Sometimes it's preposition, adverb, conjunction or verb. As for this sentence, 就 means "then" (adv.). The whole sentence "就已经很不错了" you can say in English "then it's already good enough" .

    Doris means gift in Greek. Heidy means the noble one.

    Hmmm I would say Doris coz it sounds like a gentle person.

    食物 - Food

    我同我太太好鍾意食嘢。我哋時時去餐廳食嘢。
    我哋鍾意中菜,意大利菜,墨西哥菜,日本菜,等等。
    我太太 特別/零舍 鍾意牛扒。
    無論o係簡單但平啲定o係精緻但貴啲都好,我都會試下食。
    不過,老實講,越嚟越鐘意食簡單嘢。
    如果有人好俾心機咁整簡單嘅嘢食,咁就最好喇。
    如果個廚師有天份,就唔使嘥錢買好貴嘅食材。
    偏偏我同我太太唔太鍾意煮野食。
    我太太知幾個好正嘅食譜。每次整佢,我都好開心。
    搵日我應該學佢一樣整鍾意嘅食譜。

    Food
    My wife and I like to eat. We often go out to restaurants.
    We like chinese food, italian, mexican, japanese, etc.
    My wife especially likes steak.
    No matter if it is simple and cheap or fancy and a bit expensive, we will try it.
    But honestly more and more we mostly like simple food.
    If someone carefully cooks simple food, it’s the best.
    If a chef has talent, then there’s no need to waste money on expensive ingredients.
    Unforfunately, my wife and I don’t like to cook much.
    My wife knows a few wonderful recipes. Each time she makes them, I’m very happy.
    Someday I should learn to make a recipe she likes as much.<o:p></o:p>

    <o:p>++++++</o:p>

    <o:p>Feel free to contact me if you are interested in Cantonese :)</o:p>
