Went to the Tong Chong Street market and tried the Moroccan mint tea which is an exclusive drink served by TEAKHA at the market.
To be honest I am not fond of mint so I found the mint a bit overpowering and the taste was quite sweet.

[Review 4727] Grab and go bakery burgers @ 天樂烘焙 Tin Lok Bakery
23/10/2015
天樂烘焙 Tin Lok Bakery
灣仔天樂里15號
15 Tin Lok Lane, Wan Chai
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/grab-and-go-bakery-burgers-e2504534
The buns filled with egg and hamburger patty looked good so got that and an eggtart.
The bun was faintly sweet and acceptable as a Western bun but it still had that Chinese bakery taste and texture to it.
As for the fillings the egg was done nicely but the taste of the egg was like washing up liquid and the sausage patty tasted weird.
The eggtart had the same washing up liquid taste so it must be the eggs and it was quite sweet.
The tart base was heavily laced in pork lard because it left you feeling bloated for the whole day.

Cozy Indian joint in Tai Hang
2015-10-22 460 瀏覽
Discovered this joint randomly on foodpanda and the menu is exactly the same as Haveli.
When I got there, I recognized the guy from Haveli.
The restaurant was small and cozy.
The guy was really helpful when I was ordering because he advised which naan would go best with the curries.
Here was what I had:
+++++++++++
Chicken 65:
Deep fried boneless chicken pieces marinated with ginger, garlic paste, red chilli powder, lemon juice, yoghurt, curry leaves and Indian spices.
The pieces of fried chicken were really good because it was pieces of leg meat and there were so many flavours going on but it was a bit too salty.
+++++++++++
Lamb Bombay curry:
The bombay curry had a sweet taste to begin with and gradually the spiciness came through.
+++++++++++
Calamari Curry:
Fresh Calamari Fish cooked with onion, garlic, ginger paste in home made tomato puree, coconut grated, curry leaves & Indian spices.
I found calamari curry quite sweet and aromatic.
+++++++++++
Chicken Masala:
The masala was very strong and it went nicely with the naan bread.
+++++++++++
Steamed Rice:
Indian steamed basmati rice that was fluffy and fragrant.
+++++++++++
Naan:
0 讚好
Soft and warm naan.

Glad someone has updated openrice with this new eatery.
This joint is owned by Koreans hence I had to speak English to them when I ordered.
Tried the beef bowl which had lots of beef, carrots, onions and sesame.
The food was ok but as with all Korean food, I found it very sweet.

Previously, this used to be 天將麵包 but now it is called I AM.
The snacks shop a few doors away is called I AM in Chinese!
Went in to have a look and saw some interesting cakes.
Chinese style BATTENBURG!
Mini green cupcakes:
Anyway, I got this weird looking pastry which was a green tea cake within a flaky roll that looked like a cream cake as well.
I didn't really like it but tried it for fun, the green tea taste was a bit artificial as well as the colour.
Anyway, glad the snack shop a few doors away is back.

Tin Lok Bakery started off in Sheung Wan and Wan Chai.
Now they have a shop in Quarry Bay.
Tried the pandan cake which was dry and tasteless with dehydrated edges.
There was no pandan taste but a strong coconut flavour.
A bit overpriced since it didn't taste good.

Tried the choi pong hae e-fu noodles which is basically e-fu noodles topped with scrambled egg white that resembles crabmeat.
It was a bit bland and the egg white was too oily for my liking but there was lots of prawn in it.
The noodles were ok but tasteless.
