Brilliant food as well as coffee

Discovered this place a few weeks ago and realized they served food as well as coffee.
The menu was sophisticated because they had osso buco which isn't something that is served everywhere and the joint looked small yet they could offer a good variety which is impressive.
As this place is always full, finally went on Mother day's afternoon when everyone should be busy pampering themselves for the evening or occupied with their families and in-laws etc.
When they gave us the menu, we were told the specials that day were white truffle omelette and butter chicken!!
My eyes literally lit up when I heard that because I love butter chicken and it was kind of odd to find it here as not many Hong Kongers know/eat this dish.
They said it was served with Indian Rice which really got me excited.
I already had my mind on the butter chicken, although the white truffle was also good because black truffle is getting boring these days and cheap truffle tastes like petrol.
When it came, I was so happy as it really was Indian Rice!!!!
The sauce was so damn good, just like the stuff you get from Marks and Spencers or any decent Indian place and the chicken pieces were tandoori chicken so I ate every piece.
Normally I leave the meat found in curries and whatever in Hong Kong because 99% isn't fresh leaving me malnourished but their butter chicken left me satisfied.
If there was more Indian Rice, I would have downed it because I LOVE INDIAN RICE!
The staff were wonderful as well as I asked for advice on cooking Indian Rice and they gave me sound advice like adding butter/ghee to it which isn't what an average HKer would know.
While I was there, someone was smoking outside, it was really considerate of them to close the front door before the smell was enough to agitate anyone.
