Tsui Wah Cafe is a new concept that combines the best of the East with the West for Hong Kong style dishes.
It is located in Tsuen Wan with a spacious dining area.
I love the logo which has a cute Chinese dragon and a lion which reminds me of a football team.
At every table, there is a QR code so you can order via mobile.

Moving on to the dishes, I liked the way the menu has incorporated GP6D friendly dishes and plant based dishes for people with different dietary requirements.
Lets begin with the noodles which uses their signature famous fish soup that everyone should be familiar with.
The difference here is that the rice vermicelli they use is a curly one which absorbs and hangs the broth better.

Next is their signature Kagoshima style pork cartilage served in a modern way in a bun!

For people who can eat really spicy food, the spicy corned beef and egg submarine will really shock your palette with its addictive Sichuan numbing and fiery spices!!!!!
Moving on to the vegetarian dishes, they had the beyond burger with scrambled egg with beyond meat and Vegan cheezy cheese.
My new favourite had to be the minced omnipork with fried egg over rice.
For kids, there is a cute kids meal with a gift!
To finish off, there is Hong Kong style milk tea with a twist with milk pudding at the bottom.

Only went here because I saw a picture of Hainan Chicken served in a coconut.
For HKD58, it was quite expensive.
When it came, it was slightly different but still looked good.
The only complaint was the chicken was a bit raw and the rice was hard.
Everything was bland so the sauce did it justice.

Went here because it strangely served Peking Duck Rolls for HKD20.
The prices were quite affordable so ended up having some chilled noodles for HKD25 and a drink which was only HKD50.
The duck was a bit disappointing as the wrap was like the bing crepe pastry and the hoisin sauce was not strong enough.
Basically Mr bing does it better.
Next were the chilled noodles which are freshly tossed in the Sichuan sauces and seasoning.

The spiciness was just right with a tad of msg and it wasn't too oily.
Overall the noodles fared better.
Finished with Lemon Tea.

Arome Bakery's Ramune Soda Lactic Acid Sliced Cake

A while ago Arome Bakery launched these Ramune Soda Lactic Acid cake series which looked rather modern.
There is the Ramune Soda Lactic Acid Sliced Cake or the Ramune Soda Lactic Acid Roll Cake so I got the sliced cake because the only difference is that it had jam in it.

It had a hard biscuit base which I didn't like but the rest was ok, there was a layer of jelly in the middle, some jam, a thin layer of cake and yoghurt mousse!
This is Hong Kong style cake for you, there is always less of the cake than the mousse and it always has a biscuit base!
I think the roll probably tastes better as there is more roll to filling.

Went here randomly and saw these cream puffs so decided to get them.
There were big and small ones.
The cream puffs were not too sweet but the cream was disgusting as it was synthetic and stiff.
Anyway, I deeply regretted more than one.
Also had to get a bottle of HKD10 water to wash it down.

Spotted the White Peony tea cake at Maxims so decided to try it.
It looked quite nice with a layer of tea jelly, cream and cake.
Overall, the cake was soft and light and not too sweet.
I could taste red tea so it was definitely not White peony.
Anyway, I hope they will have other tea flavoured cakes soon like Earl Grey.

Australian Potato Scallops found here

I have always wanted to try this place as they serve vegetarian cart noodles.
The famous broth at this place is laksa while the topping is the [Potato Slices].
As it was my first visit, it was really hard making up my mind as I wanted to choose everything so I reduced it down to four choices.
I was also having a hard job deciding on which noodle as they all seemed good.
I was really fortunate the guy spotted my choice of broth didn't go well together because I was supposed to tick laksa but ticked satay broth by accident as they both have SAND in the Chinese character.

While I was waiting, I was given some soup.

The noodles were pretty impressive especially the broth which was strong and flavourful without meat.
The mock beef belly was really good because there was a hint of black bean in the gravy.
The star of the show was the potato slices which were basically Australian Potato Scallops.
Australian Potato scallops do not contain scallops, they are fried slices of potato tat are covered in batter.
The potato slices were pretty good, only one of them was slightly hard in the middle.
Will definitely be back to try the other toppings and noodles.

[Review 7392] The famous restaurant from Yuenlong @ 亞萊嘜嘜 (已結業)AloyMakMak

Aloy Mak Mak started off in Yuenlong and now they have branched closer to the city in Tsuen Wan.
The restaurant is spacious and they have big tables for group gatherings which is ideal for any celebration be it Mother's day as Chinese restaurants will be difficult to book and prices will be marked up!Most of the dishes we had were signature items which will be available on Mother's Day.
The Bread bowl was my ultimate favorite as it was filled with seafood curry that wasn't spicy and flavoured by the fragrant turmeric.
Also available in a pumpkin version.
As a carbs lover, we had the garlic bread which looked like Jenga blocks, they were light and crispy yet not oily.
Although the minced pork with herbs is a little spicy, they have put galangal in it which makes it really tasty.
The Thai platter which has different portion sizes is great for sharing and  I love the chicken wrapped in pandan as well as the fried pumpkin.
The raw prawns are a popular dish at AMM and the sauce was very fiery and tangy.
The Tom Yum Kung soup was nicely flavoured so the herbs were not too strong or spicy yet appetizing.
There was mango fried rice with crab which was a makes a sweeter option to pineapple fried rice which chunks of it in the rice as well as the slices on top.
Finished with the dessert which was a great ending and they also have black and white glutinous rice that is also served at the other branches.
