Tried the new Christmas cake because it had my favourite combination of apple and cinnamon.

Abies (Apple Cinnamon Mousse Cake):
0 讚好
It was delicious with light apple mousse on the outside and in the middle it had pieces of crisp apples in a light cinnamon sauce.
0 讚好
The base tasted like coffee even though it was chocolate but it was good because it was not too sweet which is the beauty of Dolci 2/3.

Went here for dinner because the place was quite cute.
There is a cabinet that displays the food they serve.

The food was quite diverse ranging from waffles, pancakes to all day breakfasts.

As it was dinner, we picked most of the pastas.
Basically you pay at the counter and wait for the dishes to be brought over.

Bolognaise Fusilli in cream sauce $58:

The fusilli was piping hot covered in bolognaise sauce.
The sauce was quite meaty with gooey cheese in the middle and the fusilli hung the sauce well which made it really tasty.

Spaghetti with clams in cream sauce $68:
0 讚好
The pasta was soft and creamy with lovely clams on top.
It was quite a big plate which was good for sharing.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Crispy pizza with mushroom $42:
0 讚好
The pizza was my favourite because the pizza base was wafer thin and extremely flakey topped with delicious earthy mushrooms and melted cheese.

The sausages looked like chipolatas which tasted nice because it was packed with herbs and the fries were perfectly done.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Sparkling oolong tea $48:
0 讚好
The tea was quite surprising because I was expecting literally fizzy oolong tea but it was much nicer than that.
It was amazing that there was no sugar in it except the vanilla icecream which was the key to the flavour when you mix the drink.
At the bottom there was golden oolong jelly.

Discovered a new branch of A-1 Bakery so took a look.
The apple pie looked delicious so decided to get one.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Apple pie $50:
The apple pie looked good but unfortunately it didn't taste that good because the pastry was dense and not flakey.
The filling was too sweet as well.

On this visit, I just had the dumplings.
Before I ordered I double checked with the guy to see if they were spicy and he told me they were not.
Just to be safe, I asked the older guy at the till and he also said they were not spicy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Panfried dumplings:
They were spicy without the sauce!!
Anyway, the filling does not have much meat in it.

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/disappointment-x-eight-times-e2404771
Dined here AGES ago but it wasn't worth writing up so left it until now.
This place is listed as serving American/Creole food but the food was localized.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Three eggs scrambled:
The toast was local bread because it was sweet and it just tasted like bread from garden bakery and the scrambled egg was mixed with margarine and there was no cheesy taste at all.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Louisana catfish bites:
The catfish was slightly better but the coating had no Southern spices or taste to it.

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/this-place-has-got-the-balls-to-serve-e2404727
I have always wanted to try this place because they serve meatballs, the thing that makes them special is that it is not only pork or beef but they have fish, chicken and vegetarian balls!!
This place has got the balls to serve !!! So finally gave them a visit.
The menu before was better because they had roast suckling pig meatballs.
At first the waitress was really annoying because I had only sat down for like a few minutes and she was expecting that I was ready to order.
But anyway, she wasn't so annoying afterwards.
Here was what I had:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Bread:
This was given as a starter.
The bread was tough and chewy but the butter was worth mentioning because it was dusted with olive powder on the side.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chicken fondue:
Chicken | Parmesan fondue | Asparagus
The chicken meatballs were slightly dry and the parmesan sauce tasted a bit sour.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Codballs:
0 讚好
Mediterranean cod fish | Anchovy | French fries | Coffee mayo.
I was expecting it to be tastier but it was bland and the potatoes were clumpy.
The chips were good though.

According to their website, there is another menu so the menu I saw was probably not the best of choices.

[Review 3834] Just another snake joint @ 蛇王良

Tried this randomly because I have not tried it before.
There are various of snake sets to choose from.
The best part is seeing jars of reptiles!!!!
The snake soup was how it should be, it was loaded with snake meat, ginger, bamboo shoots, Chinese mushrooms but the taste was not impressive.
Didn't like the rice with salted meat because it had a weird smell.
The glutinous rice was ok but very soggy.

The tea was nice and strong.
