I had previously picked up their menu and was deciding to dine in or get a take-out, in the end I opted to dine in.
The menu was slightly helpful as they had English too, however for one of the dishes, in English it indicates noodles, but in Chinese it reads Rice.
Basically the choices were either pastas or the Chinese dishes. All the dishes were mostly fusion such as beef with peach with is neither chinese or western! Usually peaches are treated as a sweet fruit cooked with poultry and even pork, I think this is the first beef dish with peach in HK!
As for the pasta, I was surprised there was a wide range available, ie angel hair, fettuccine, spaghetti.
To order, you need to walk up to the counter and order your food, they will give you a ticket and bring you your food, next time I will phone for a take-away, as it is difficult to order in a noisy background.
Their front door is a sliding glass door, which seemed to be previously an automatic door that is non-functional, so either it is non-functional or they are saving electricity costs.
Most of the items come with soup and a drink.
The soup that was served was western soup, the typical chinese-western soup, by appearance it looks like western soup, thick, white with pieces of ham in it.
By taste, it is totally chinese, ie pork broth mixed with flour/starch with pieces of ham in it.
Penne pasta with yoghurt sauce, basil and squid
Very big in portion, generous with basil and squid, the squid was tasteless and tiring to eat!
The pasta was quite nice, however not hot enough and not enough sauce. The sauce was quite nice with curds of yoghurt in it from the cooking process.
Chinese dish – chicken with “three cup” wine and aubergines
Tasted nothing like the usual “three cup” dishes with lots of onions, green peppers.
The chicken was good though, generous chunks of chicken thighs.
The only prominent taste was the oily wok odour, typical in chinese food.
