Good to see my favourite tofu shop here, however the range is limited.
Also the sauces are not that hygienic as the dine in branch at Tsuen Wan, it is food court style, so everything becomes messy and communal, and not much people clearing the stalls.
The fried tofu with fish still tastes good, same with the stuffed tofu.

Previously saw their Jasmine milk tea featured in magazines, however they were sold out when I went to buy them, today they were in stock so got a pack, it was on promotion as buy one get one free, so got 2 packs, each with 2 sachets.
Basically it is jasmine tea with milk, sugar is already mixed in, hence no sugar needs to be added.
It is not actually their house product, but distributed by them, but the sachet has their logo printed on it.
The taste just tastes like the Taiwanese milk teas, but hot version.

Got my usual weekly dimsum, actually I hadnt been here for two weeks, there were so many people queueing up, so I ate elsewhere.

This time there was new stuff, so ordered the chicken feet in abalone sauce, salmon vol-au-vents, chicken pot with won tons, and the usual prawn dumplings etc.

Chicken in abalone sauce:
big bowl with chicken feet and lots and lots of peanuts, let alone a whole bowl of sauce.
So much sauce was left over after the chicken feet were gone, also the chicken feet were nice and soft.

chicken pot with wonton:
literally a bowl of chicken soup with wontons!!

Salmon vol-au-vents:
Lucky they were piping hot, or else I would have got spiked by the long rigid thick fish bone ( see picture ).
I really was not expecting a fish bones!!!
Tasted ok, except the pastry was not well baked, the base was still hard and not risen properly.

Came here for afternoon tea, so ordered their Laksa and Noodles in Soy sauce, the portion of the noodles in soy sauce was quite small, which was good in a way because I was still hungry, so ordered the prawn noodles as well!!!

Noodles in Soy sauce with chicken and roast pork:
the noodles tasted like noodles at on lei i previously tried
http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/commentdetail.htm?commentid=1994966
and the shredded chicken was tender and juicy, and wasnt dry or tasteless or had an overnight odour like some places.
the roast pork was ok.
the soup that came with the noodles was natural, no msg added.

Laksa:
not that spicy, the soup wasnt that strong, Katong still rates the FIRST!!!
anyway the vermicelli was good!! they are the thread like vermicelli, same at Katong.
also the soup didnt have MSG.

Prawn noodles:
Tasted relatively good, as good at the prawn noodle shop in wanchai, but in a different way.
http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/commentdetail.htm?commentid=1943536
The prawn noodles here tasted good, because the vermicelli was thin, so could take in the flavour of the soup, however the prawn soup at wanchai tastes stronger, but the noodles there arent good.

Last visit of the day, went to the notorious B Jai leung fun, I didnt even know this was the shop, the name on the sign said Gai Gay.

I heard the grass jelly isnt that good, so I got the Sago with Taro,
it was nice and thick, with lumps of taro.
the coconut in the sago matched well.

If it was less sweet, I would have liked it more.

Finally arrived in yuen long, so stopped by for a quick dinner, had the ramen, not that good, the soup was a bit gooey, and the rest of the stuff was standard.

The restaurant was quite full, as there is not many choices around, also Japanese food is often a popular pick.

New territories is a place I don't usually go, but stopped by here because Rainbow dessert house is famous in this area, the name sound fun, but the desserts wasn't that colourful as i imagined.

Most of the items were mango based, so my friends had the yeung ji gum lo, and mango pudding, whilst I had chocolate snowflake ice.

The chocolate snowflake tasted how it should, and so did the rest.
