HKD63 Pork Knuckle

Pork Knuckle is served almost every where in Western style restaurants in Hong Kong because they are easy to serve and readily available from suppliers.

The pork knuckle at IKEA is probably worth trying because it does not come from local suppliers and it only costs HKD63.

I thought it was definitely good because it came with potatoes, gravy and sauerkraut.
The knuckle meat was soft inside with a nice salty flavour to it that wasn't over salty while the sauerkraut complimented it nicely.

Salted Caramel Latte at Ikea FiKET
2019-02-21  250 瀏覽
Went here because IKEA Bistro didn't have what I wanted so went here for a salted caramel latte instead.
The picture looked quite nice but luckily they told me it wasn't like that.
The latte had a strong coffee taste but I couldn't taste the caramel or salty notes in the drink.
The Earl Grey tea was a little different to the blends I have had as there was a strange lemongrass taste.
Although the drinks were not that good this time, the guy that day was really patient and nice to everyone.

Went here again because the veggie balls were sold out last time.
On the last visit, I was puzzled why people kept pouring liquid from the metal flask when there was hot water in the machine.
I finally found out why when someone used a clear bottle and it turned out to be milk they were pouring so you can get free milk here lol!!!


New items:

++++++++++++

Veggie balls with big couscous pearls:
Tried this before and I hated the sauce. On this visit, I forgot to ask them not to put it in.

Anyway, the the veggie balls are more filling now because they give you big couscous pearls (underneath) for the same price.


++++++++++++
Pizza:

A nice slice of pizza with a soft base and melted cheese.

Simple and delicious with a tangy tomato paste.

++++++++++++

Cinnamon bun:
I didn't like this because there was a weird plasticky smell and taste.

Feeling peckish, I went here for a cheap fix.
I was going to get the veggie balls but when I got nearer the till, there were some new items displayed on the screen.
If the new items had been stuck on posters near the entrance I would have tried them earlier.
Anyway, had the chicken fillets with lingonberries mayonnaise.
The chicken was tender but unfortunately it was not hot enough and the mayonnaise was sweet and creamy tasting like strawberry yoghurt.

Getting expensive
2016-11-18  405 瀏覽
I used to like dining here because it was affordable and the stuff they serve is inexpensive to import.

Now the prices have gone up but you are being served the same stuff so it becomes expensive to eat something that was once cheap.

I was a bit disappointed because there are not many choices and they have stopped the roast chicken.
My favourite has to be the prawns, they are firm and springy, easy to peel and natrually sweet bursting with roe.

A few weeks ago, I had the veggie balls which were really nice so decided to get them again.
This time they were dark and dry.
I requested a different sauce but they wouldn't allow it so marks taken off here.

There is always a long queue here for food because it is cheap and delicious but fortunately the queue goes down surprisingly fast and within a flash you get your food.
Came here because of the new veggie balls and chicken balls.

Veggie balls $8:

I love veggie balls and the price was reasonable, you could see peas and sweetcorn in it.
They were simply delicious and the texture of the peas in the balls were starchy and hard.
This is why I like vegetarian food because vegetables can’t be faked whereas things like flour, offal, fat etc can be mixed into meatballs and sausages.
The only thing that ruined it was the sauce because it was honey mustard and just didn't go well with it.

Chicken balls $6:


These were a bit disappointing because the texture was a bit squidgy and it wasn’t really meaty with an off chicken taste.

[Review 4270] Roasted chicken leg at IKEA @ 宜家家居美食站 IKEA Bistro

On my last visit I didn't know that there were chicken legs because it was not on the menu.
I only saw them behind the counter when I collected my food.
Anyway, on this visit, there was a small sign near the counter which is really useless because by the time you are at the till, you have already ordered or made up your mind.

I got the set for $16 because they don't sell the chicken leg a la carte.
It comes with fizzy drinks which I don't drink.
The chicken leg was really good, I loved the skin because it was roasted to the point that it was moist and thin while the chicken inside was soft and juicy with chicken oil and juice dripping from it.

I was feeling peckish so came here for some snacks.
As expected the queue was quite long but the staff were quite efficient so I got my food quickly.

I would have ordered chicken leg but it was not on the menu, by the time I saw it at the food counter it was too late.

meatballs:

The meatballs were quite soft, and the texture is a bit like a burger in meat ball form with delicious gravy.
There is jam as well but I didn't feel like adding jam.

The vegetable patty was big and satisfying with big chunks of potato and broccoli in it.
