Came back for the tofu with blended strawberry slush, however the strawberry slush was too sweet this time.
The tofu beneath it was quite nice but it lacked soy bean taste.

I love the fish sets at this place!!
It is only $40 including rice, soup and dessert!!

Dessert:
I don't like Chinese desserts anyway! but it came with it.

Soup:
There was no MSG, so the soup was quite good.
Tried the fish twice, they were fresh and steamed just right because the fish was soft and supple.
Black beans were my favourite.

[Review 3266] Southern style fried chicken @ Restoration

Fried chicken has suddenly become popular because of some Korean series.
Anyway, I am not a fan of Korean food so I don't have this urge to visit all those Korean restaurants in TST.
Instead I went to restoration for fried chicken.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Gravy:
Creamy white gravy which is different to the British.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Soup:

A hearty soup which had lots of macaroni and vegetables.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Fried chicken and biscuits:

The fried chicken was very flavoursome because the coating had a lot of spices including thyme.

[Review 3265] Crappy green monday @ 心齋 (已搬遷) Pure Veggie House

Made a reservation and they said the dining time was from 6:30 to 8.45 because the restaurant was fully booked.
When I arrived, it was empty and it remained empty.

Anyway, when I got there, they allocated me the TATAMI.
Why the hell would I want to sit in a bloody TATAMI, do I bloody look Japanese?

Ordered the hotpot but they forgot the wontons and some other dumplings which really annoyed me because their hotpots are more expensive than normal non vegetarian hotpots.

The service was shit and appauling as well and a shame to the vegetarian society because people like David Yeung and the Green Monday organisations are working very hard to promote Green and vegetarian awareness.

God knows how long those chestnuts have been kept in their fridge because it was dry and oxidised (brown) should be binned, you could tell they've gone bad because they've just sliced the rotting surfaces away.
The Bak Kut Teh broth was interesting because they used a soup bag which was obviously bought from somewhere.

What pissed me off even more was the bored waitress who kept coming over to my table and watch me eat did not even tell me there were sauces for the hotpot.
I only found out about the sauces when I got home and read the previous reviews.

The bored waitress was useless as well because she saw my hotpot heat up with the broth spilling and she did not even bother to come and turn down the gas.

If the restaurant was busy I could understand the lack of service (if any at all) but there were only 2-3 tables which shows how busy they are.

Anyway, the taro dumpling was quite good, it was filled with sticky thick taro paste.

[Review 3264] Toastie sandwich and other interesting finds @ 山崎麵飽 Yamazaki Bakery

I don't often go into Yamazaki but as I had lots of time at Kowloon Tong station, I pondered in.
I saw this interesting sandwich in the cabinet which looked like a toastie but it was not toasted.
As well as that, there was camembert puffs which were tempting.

In the end I got the sandwich toastie and an apple and yoghurt bun.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Tuna and potato sandwiche:







I was expecting sweet tasting tuna but it was filled with creamy and delicious tuna and potato filling.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
apple and yoghurt bun:


The apple and yoghurt bun was also good because it was not cloyingly sweet and it had delicious crisp pieces of apple in it.

[Review 3263] Beef K-Roll @ K-Roll

After my first visit to Wan Chai's K-Roll, I was craving for more.
This was my first visit to the Sheung Wan branch, the first branch in Hong Kong.
I was expecting the quality at this branch to be better because it was the original shop.
Tried the Beef K-Roll

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Beef K-Roll:




I was disappointed because each slice was not uniformly sliced and when I picked it up, the seaweed was not sliced properly which unwound the other ones making the beef fall out.
The beef didn't taste nice either because it was sweet.
If I had tried this branch first, it would have killed my expectations for K-Roll because the Wan Chai branch tastes so much better and the quality was better too.
