Went here because of the weird Quesadillas filled with green paste.

The green paste is not guacamole but matcha, condensed milk and mozzarella cheese.
The cheese and matcha paste was not evenly mixed and the cheese was in the middle.
I took a bite which only had matcha paste and it was quite nice because it tastes like custard.
As I got to the middle, there was some cheese which was luckily tasteless or the cheesiness would have ruined the taste.

I also tried the chicken with Hainan spicy sauce quesadilla and it was too spicy but Thankfully it was not the sweet Chinese chili sauce.

It was pretty good with chicken and melted cheese as filling but I will request for less chili sauce next time.

Singed fried rice:

I wonder if rice is getting expensive these days, because most places are using Japanese pearl rice which is horrible, why don't they use Indian rice.
Anyway, the fried rice had quite a charred taste and smell because nearly every grain of rice was singed by the flames when it got tossed in the air.
Nice and carceogenic!
Not much taste but all you could taste was burnt rice.

Went here because there was no one.
Ordered the wintermelon and grass jelly drink and requested it to be less sweet.
Unfortunately, the drink was super sweet.
It seems that I need to try this place again because a blogger told me that the 黑糖台灣冰 is good.

This vegetarian place used to be in Wan Chai but they have now moved right to the heart of Central/Sheung Wan.

I love the new place because it just fits there surrounded by people who are health conscious.

There were samples to try:

Went after work so there were quite a lot of things sold out so tried the portobello burger and Eggless frittata with tomato sauce.

+++++++++++
 0 讚好

Mushroom lovers will love the portobello because it is two big portobellos mushrooms mimicking the bun sandwiched with lettuce, tomato and sauce in the middle.

There are two sauces for the burger and I chose the truffle cashew cheese sauce which doesn’t contain any milk and it tastes so cheesy so I just loved the burger.

There was a sample of the eggless frittata that is mixed with tofu and surrounded in a delicious herby tomato sauce spiced with fragrant cumin.

At Maya, the food is always flavourful and the menu has improved.

+++++++++++
I managed to get some truffle cashew cheese sauce and it tastes great with bread!
+++++++++++
Decided to treat myself with a chocolate mousse and it tasted divine, it was so silky and melts in your mouth with a hint of coconut.
+++++++++++
I also got the cherry drink which was fizzy but it tasted a bit like fizzy tomato juice!
There is some text in the inner surface of the bottle.

At first I got this confused with the Katong in Wanchai, but this place has nothing to do with that branch.

Had a quick dinner and had the following:

Roti with curry sauce:
 0 讚好

The roti could have been better because it was dense and not flaky, but the curry sauce was good and quite salty.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Tiger prawn vermicelli pot:


I expected a nice smell when the lid was taken off but there wasn't and the vermicelli was evidently too moist with a strong garlic taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Grilled sambal stringray:



The stingray was the best but if you like sambal sauce you will be disappointed because it was not strong enough.

Went here because no one was dining there.
Their signature dish is the curry but it was watery and there were too many sharp and hard herbs in the curry which were annoying when you ate because you had to spit them out.

The chili-poached fish was really nice because the fish was extremely silky and not too spicy but the tofu puffs beneath were really spicy because it soaked up all the sauce.

There are about 4-5 pieces of fish in the bowl and beneath the fish are chunky pieces of vegetables and tofu puffs.
As for the rice, it was a bit too soft and mushy and it was Japanese rice which I don’t like.

Lunch sets don’t come with soup or drink but luckily the fish I had tasted good.
I ended up getting the drink which was barley and wintermelon for $10 but it was too sweet for my liking.

Discovered this place after visiting the new bowling place.

Noticed it was a vegetarian joint so went.

The menu had snacks and drinks but it didn't have a price so I asked how much and she said feel free to donate which I did.

They also sell vegetarian items as well and they are trying to convey the message Love the environment, love life and be a vegetarian.

I liked the cookies which were not too sweet and because they were vegetarian, they did not have that weird buttery taste.

The wheat rolls tasted like pork scratchings.

 0 讚好

For drinks I had the pineapple and peach tea which had a nice tart aftertaste.

Also tried some other snacks which were nice and crispy.

They were impressive because they were cooked by an airfryer so no oil was used!

There is a bottle of lucky stars and each one has a message.
