East Kowloon is a great place for peace and quiet especially in the evenings because people leave the area as soon as they finish work.

As it was the festive season they had the Christmas sets and New year sets.
We had some a la carte items and some Christmas items.

Crispy foie gras, black angus beef burger with thick fig balsamic:

Beef lovers are going to love this because the beef patty had a strong beef taste with a heavy charred flavour.

[Review 3943] All you can eat Japanese in the heart of MK @ 吉壽日本料理 Kichi Jyu Japanese Restaurant

Went here for the all you can eat which is literally in the heart of MK because it is right outside exit E of the MTR Station.
It costs $198 per person which is the average price in MK.

The drinks are self service and there was a good variety in the fridges.
As a tea lover I chose Ceylon tea.

We started with sashimi which was neatly presented.

The sushi and rolls selection was impressive.
There was a nice variety of flame grilled options and they had sushi with truffle as well.

The grilled selection was also ok and my favourite was the chicken wings.

The seafood milk broth was delicious because the broth was creamy infused with seafood taste.
It was interesting they had squid tentacles in it.

The stir fried beef with sugar beans was classic because there was a nice oyster sauce taste with fragrant onions.
The fried selection was standard with the usual oysters, prawn and fish.
To finish off, we had the milk pudding which came with a really cute tiny ceramic spoon.
The pudding was silky with a creamy taste that was not too sweet.

[Review 3942] Green tea fondue @ 納思比 Nasubi

Went here especially for the green tea fondue after seeing MKK's photo.
The green tea fondue

It comes with two square dishes of fruits and Japanese sweets.

Not an expert on Japanese food so I don't know the names of the non fruit things.

The white pearls are almond pearls.


The green tea fondue was better after a while because the sauce goes thicker and coats the fruits better.
It had a mild grassy taste with a strong creamy white chocolate flavour which went well with the fruits.
Overall the staff were really nice and attentive but the only complaint was the chemicals from the burner because they made my nose feel a bit sore when you breathed in the vapours.

I was surprised to see Naan on the menu so decided to order it.
It took longer than normal curries.

Curry and naan:
The curry was the usual curry sauce but it was quite salty and the naan was quite disappointing because it was Japanese style naan which was soft and chewy, but it tasted ok.

Tulsi is one of the best places for curry, but this time I went for the pizza because their lunch sets are quite funky.
They had interesting things like butter chicken fusilli.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chicken Tikka Pizza:

The pizza base was naan bread which had a soft and chewy texture, on top it was topped with delicious melted cheese, green peppers and chicken tikka.

Every time I walk past this place, I am always captivated by that delicious smell of roast chicken.
This time I could not resist their roast potatoes.
☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Roast potatoes with beans and carrots:
As usual, the roast potatoes are perfectly roasted with a soft fluffy centre and a tasty potato skin.
The beans were slightly chewy and dry but the baby carrots were sweet with a hint of butter.

Walked past and saw the new softserve so decided to get it because it was colourful.

First they brush the edges of the cup with green syrup which is probably mint.
 0 讚好

Then they pour chocolate and cocoa on the softserve.
 0 讚好

After that they put candyfloss on top.

More syrup on top followed by crushed candy canes.
This was my favourite out of all the ones I have tried because the chocolate sauce and the softserve go really well together and the overall taste is not too sweet.
The candyfloss got in the way at the beginning so I only had a bit and disposed of it.
