We consider the Hele-Shaw flow that arises from injection of two-dimensional fluid into a point of a curved surface. The resulting fluid domains have and are more or less determined implicitly by a mean value property for harmonic functions. We improve on the results of Hedenmalm and Shimorin \cite{HS} and obtain essentially the same conclusions while imposing a weaker curvature condition on the surface. Incidentally, the curvature condition is the same as the one that appears in a recent paper of Hedenmalm and Perdomo, where the problem of finding smooth area minimizing surfaces for a given curvature form under a natural normalizing condition was considered. Probably there are deep reasons behind this coincidence.
