I have noticed quite a few times that they do Fish and Chips on a friday with mushy peas with pea and ham soup, yummy!!

Went on a Friday, when people usually go out for lunch before they breakup for the weekends, sadly not the case in HK.

Despite the restaurant was 80% full, the staff were very efficient at taking orders, serving the food, and the food arrived accordingly without any delayed waits.

For the starters ordered waldorf salad, pea and ham soup, and for the lunch, had fish and chips, chicken ala king.
Dessert and drinks were included, and there was no service charge at all!!

Starters:
Waldorf salad, this was a mix of lettuce, apple and celery, however I couldnt see any walnuts, it tasted ok, and the sauce had a slight hint of banana in it.
Pea and ham soup, this was nice and green in colour with lots of ham pieces lurking at the bottom of the bowl.
Bread, lovely bread that came with ANCHOR salted butter.

Fish and chips:
the fish was coated in breadcrumbs, a bit like fish fingers, it was quite a big piece of fish, the mushy pea's were gorgeous, thick and mushy with a few whole pieces of pea.
I would have preferred the chips not to be that crunchy, but otherwise it was terrific, especially sprinkling lots of sarsons vinegar and salt.

Chicken a la King:
This was also delicious containing chicken, peas, green peppers, I would have liked more sauce too,
I dont know why, but it felt a bit chinesey the way it was cooked.

Dessert:
This was also terrific, moist chocolate cake with extremely smooth velvety chocolate on top.

Overall it was perfect from starter to dessert, the music was slightly too loud, but acceptable for a friday.
