*Since i am a Saikunger - No Photos*
Quite an interesting restaurant on the corner, the waiters are dressed in cowboy clothing with cowboy boots,
The peanuts in the tin holder were warm too!!!!
Anyway wasn't hungry, just wanted to try something, so got the crab cakes, white crab meat inside the golden breadcrumbs.
I didn't like the sauce much though, just sweet chili sauce, I would have preferred a wedge of lemon.
[Review 460] Will this be famous on OpenRice @ 日年華美食 (將軍澳)

Well On Shopping Arcade,Yuk Nga Lane, Tseung Kwan O
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/will-it-be-famous-on-openrice-e2033622
On the windows of this shop, there are newspaper and magazine cuttings, yet it was not listed on OpenRice.
Anyway lets see if this place gets more reviews.
The food is ok, its siu mai's are the best.
The fake sharksfin soup is also ok, with lots of black fungus, chicken, glass noodles etc.
The food is also quite cheap, but the canned drinks are from china.

[Review 459] Potato croquettes @ Shake'em Buns (灣仔)
Shake'em Buns (灣仔) 02/10/2009
Shop 5, J Residence, 60 Johnston Road Wan Chai.
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/potato-croquettes-e2033614
Was a bit peckish, so got the potato croquettes, uniformly shaped, and golden brown in colour.
The potato inside it was quite soft, and there was onion gravy that came with it.
(forgot to take pic).
I thought the onion gravy was a bit sweet, so i put ketchup on it.

[Review 458] Mushroom made cheesecake! @ Mushroom Bakery 磨菇麵包店 (西貢)

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/mushroom-made-cheesecake-e2033613\
Maybe another good bakery in Sai Kung? Anyway I am not that sure on that, I never bought from there before because the shop was small, also their bakery looked a bit burnt, and not much air conditioning in there.
I was surprised the cheesecake was from there, maybe their cakes fare better.
The cheesecake was light, and as you can see from the picture, the ratio of cake and cheese is 60:40.

[Review 457] The new apple of wanchai! @ Pomme (灣仔)

G/F, Southern Commercial Building,11 Luard Road, Wan Chai
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/the-new-apple-of-wanchai-e2033611
Found out this new cake shop by Mandalay. I found it hard to find this place because along Luard Road, the location it is located, there are not many eateries there, but anyway luckily there was an Apple sign, and if you know French, Pomme means Apple.
It was quite a small cake shop, hence it was hidden by the other shops beside it.
The seating inside there probably caters for 12 (thats guessing from memory).
I totally agree with Mandalay that the cake selection is rather small, as shown on the photo.
They serve apple lattice, apple tart, fairy cakes. I wanted try the banana custard but either sold out or not made.
But anyway another place to kill time quietly for the time being since it just opened.
I ordered the apple lattice and apple tart. The apple lattice tasted better than the apple tart. The apple tart was filled with apples and raisins with apple slices at the top.

[Review 456] Spanish tapas @ UnoMas - Spanish Restaurant (灣仔)
30/09/2009 UnoMas - Spanish Restaurant (灣仔)
灣仔駱克道54-62號博匯大廈1樓
1/F, Broadway Buildling, 54-62 Lockhart Road, Wan Chai
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/spanish-tapas-e2033287
Finally came here for lunch, this is probably my first time having real Spanish food, the ones I have had before are the fake ones.
I liked the lunch style, you can choose a 3 set Tapa from the Tapa list of 15, 14 for food and one for dessert. For two people, we chose 6 Tapa’s.
The restaurant was spacious yet cramped, there were tables spread across the room, however the table for two we had was quite small, not designed for Spanish Tapa’s, you could have at most 3 Tapa’s on the table. I had trouble getting to my cramped my seat, and I am a thin!
The service was a bit cold, could have been better. Not sure if tap water was free, but other tables were given it. Also coffee/tea was included in the set, but they didn’t remind us, and we felt they had different attitudes to Caucasians and Asians.
Food:
Ensalada de lentejas con jamon: Brown lental salad with ham, red onion, tomato, olive oil and vinegar, a nice tangy starter.
Chipirones al ajillo: baby squids with garlic and parsley: this was the best, the squids were fat and soft with generous sauce.
Croquetas de Jamon: almond crusted chicken and ham croquettes, could see or taste the almond crust, infact it was just plain crumbs with smooth silky potato inside.
Croqutas de Arroz: Saffron rice and manchego fritters, This one I could taste and see the almond pieces as the coating, inside was rice, and moist too, the sauce tasted like pumpkin sauce.
Tortilla con chorizo Potato tortilla with spicy chorizo and paprika: this was just like an omelette, very buttery.
Cordero al vinto tinto: lamb in chorizo in red wine sauce: it tasted more like beef.
Dessert: Orange and almond cake with syrup.
Overall the food was ok, the service and attitude was not!

[Review 455] Night market at Park n Shop @ 士林夜市 (將軍澳)

After trying the other foods in this place, decided to try this Taiwanese joint too, I did not expect it to taste as good as the other notorious ones such as Ar To.
Ordered the beef noodles and white carrot cake.
The white carrot cake was a big slab!! It was not cut and packaged like that. There was not much ingredients such as pork or shrimp in it. It was slightly greasy and had a strong oil odour.
The noodles were ok, the soup base was ok, contained lots carrot, beef etc.
