During my last two visits I must have picked the wrong stuff because they did not taste nice.
However the items I picked this time were better except for the mussels.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Charcoal Grilled Fillet of Beef served with Spicy Sauce :
The beef was tender and juicy and it was really delicious.
There was a nice charred taste because it was grilled.
The sauce that came with it was made with shallots, chinese Parsley, Chili Powder and Lime Juice which was really refreshing.
You can see it had lots of herbs in it sauce.

Stuffed Green Mussels in thick Curry Paste:

This was disappointing, it was just green mussels with curry sauce on top.
The mussels were not fresh and had the usual frozen taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Baked Rice with Minced Pork and Black Olives:

This was delicious however the portion was small.
The rice at the bottom of the pot was burnt so it was crispy.
The chopped pieces of black olives and minced pork tasted really nice when it was mixed with the rice, however this dish can be quite salty.

Today felt like having thai food again, as usual their air conditioning was overly cold.

I ordered the minced beef fried ho fun, assuming it was ho fun with bits of minced beef, but when it arrived it looked like chinese bolognaise on top of ho fun.

The bolognaise as i call it, was basically stirred egg bits with minced beef, green peppers and tomato mixed together in clear sauce, and the ho fun, was just stir fried ho fun beneath it.

Their stir fried noodles is rather salty.

Presentation wise, my friends said it looked like puke!!
Service was very slow today, usually the food arrives a a few minutes after placing the order, also this time the dishes came one at a time!

I booked a table through the phone, and the guy replied " a table for fee at wun o cock" , so based on his accent, I was expecting some cantonese styled food.

When we got there, the atmosphere was OK, a mix of western ppl and cantonese ppl having lunch there. Waiters anxiously trying to serve people and looking busy.
Luckily there was a chi-eng menu, anyway I ordered the PAD THAI, which came at a reasonable time, however they did'nt give me lemon/lime, which I had to request for, shown in the pic, served in a sauce dish.

I wasnt very pleased when I got the noodles, it was wet, Phad thai is not meant to be wet, also there was chili in it. Anyone would know there is no chili in that, also it tasted a bit sweet.
Most Pad Thais have prawn in it too, none in my dish either.

I think next time I would be safer ordering fried rice instead.
