At Kee Wah Bakery, there are so many gift boxes for CNY that there is something suitable for everyone.
This box contains almond crisps and palmiers which is the perfect gift for the elderly or people who do not like sweets.
The palmiers were crispy with a buttery taste.
As for the almond crisps they were crispy with a thin sweet coating of icing sugar and crunchy almonds on top.

[Review 4078] Healthy cafe @ 永健坊餐廳 The Restaurant by The Kinnet

This cafe is similar to nood food because they serve healthy foods and they are attached to a fitness centre.
Went there for the quinoa sweet corn cakes.

Quinoa Sweet corn cakes:
These corn cakes reminded me of falafel because of the taste and the dips that it came with.
However there was no sweetcorn in them so why are they called corn cakes??
The three dips that came with it were delicious especially the avocado and salsa.
As for the corn cakes, they just tasted like mashed potato with crispy quinoa in it.

[Review 4077] The odd one that is doing great @ Oddies

Had this gelato in late september last year and the queue was endless.
All their dessert creations are wonderful because there are so many different items in it.
I tried ohh tea which had Italian low fat soft gelato served on a bed of earl grey bergamot panna cotta, caramel apple, butter crumbs, organic jasmine tea sorbet, hibiscus tea espuma, strawberry tea caramel popcorn, and a chocolate dipped teabag.
It was just amazing with all these different layers. I loved the tea sorbet and each spoonful would be filled with different delights that will surprise you.
At the very bottom there was creamy panna cotta which blended well with the milky gelato tasting just like tea with milk.
It will be just a matter of time until they open a second branch, hopefully they will have a bigger shop so that people can eat there instead of standing in the streets!

Went here again for tea because this is the only branch of Putien that serves the boxes.
It basically has all my favourites so if you havent tried Putien food before, this is a good starter because it has most of the signature dishes such as the rice, noodles and other side dishes.
As usual the vermicelli was amazing because the strands were evenly tossed and flavoured.

[Review 4075] Not as good as the SPK branch @ Antoshimo Cafe & Bakery

Went here for dinner and chose the bento boxes.
There were so many choices but there was something I didn't like in each one.
I ended up getting the M box which had Tsubu crispy fish with black sugar lemon sauce and squid ink rice with seafood.
The staff was truly weird because I was sitting alone and they placed my chopsticks opposite where there was no one instead of placing them infront of me!!
Anyway, the food arrived and it was rubbish!
The seagrapes were just stalks!!
As for the rice, it was tasteless and the fish was too oily.

[Review 4074] The best place for BBQ @ 白石燒烤 Whitehead Barbecue

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/the-best-place-for-bbq-e2424502
I don't often go to BBQs because the thought of travelling to Sai Kung is hell and 90% of the time in Hong Kong is hot and humid so why would you want to torture yourself having a BBQ.
Recently I joined some friends at Whitehead BBQ which changed my perception of BBQs and the fact that it was winter made it more enjoyable.
Whitehead BBQ is located in the countryside of Hong Kong with a nice seaview, we got the 10 person package for $2988 which includes a room with a patio for the BBQ furnished with a fridge, air con, TV, table, chairs and some games.
When you arrive, there is a name list at the reception to help people locate their BBQs and the staff will lead you there as well.
After you are settled they will check with you the list of food that is in the fridge and help you to start the BBQ going when you are ready.
Our package included forks, seasonings, plates, tissues and drinks.
Food wise, there was 2 bags of prawns, 2 bags of NZ mussels, 3 bags of scallops with garlic butter, Whole fish, 2 bags of ribs, chicken steaks, pork chops, chicken wings, chicken franks, chicken cartilage, pork burger patties, Taiwanese sausages, cheesy sausages, seafood balls, sweet potatoes and sweetcorn.
As well as all that, we had the BBQ suckling pig which was everyone's favourite!! They even help you to serve it when it is ready.
Basically I had a great time and the food was good especially the suckling pig, chicken wings, burger patties and sweet potatoes.
I definitely had an enjoyable day and it has changed my perception of hot and sticky BBQs because it was nice that the place was fully equipped.

It is getting near Chinese new year and everyone is stocking up on candies for the candy box which is offered to guests during the festive days.
I like Kee Wah's candy assortment.
There are four different flavours in the box:
-Handmade nougats
-handmade chewy peanut candy with dessicated coconut
-handmade crunchy pumpkin seed candy
-handmade black date candy with walnut
All of them are going to be great treats which are addictive.
My favourites are the nougats and the chewy peanut candy because they are chewy and simply moreish!
