My regular curry place

Haven't been here for a while but went again because I was recently reminded of this place by the Michelin guide.

Since I have tried almost 90% of the items on the menu, I went for something different.

Ordered a Happy meal for one and some extra stuff.

The Happy meal was quite big so I didn't quite finish everything.

The lamb was quite good because the curry was flavourful.

The eggplant curry was like Mediterranean eggplant dip but with a curry flavouring, excellent with the naans and rice.

Last but not least are the aloo tikki potatoes patties which I have every time I come here.

mymycaffe used to be the smallest coffee shop in Hong Kong which was widely reported but not anymore because they have expanded.

I miss that cute little green coffee shed.

They moved to this upstairs place and now back to street level.

A while ago they celebrated their 5th anniversary so I was given a lovely souvenir.
I will be back for the thick chocolate when the weather is cooler!!

Basically you get 90 minutes of shabu shabu time and the cheapest one starts at $118 and the most expensive one costs $278 depending on the beef you choose.
There is a good variety of beef selections ranging from the US to Australian Wagyu.

Although the US beef is the cheapest, it was my personal favourite because it was lean!!!

As well as the wonderful selection of vegetables, dumplings, curry and fried rice, they have sashimi and seafood which is also included in the buffet so I suggest ordering that first while the shabu shabu heats up.

The noodles are a must try because the texture is really good and absorbs the broth nicely.
There are various of teas and sweet treats such as froyo, popcorn and candyfloss!

For the broth, I got the duo pot so picked the salmon and miso and the kombu.

The salmon broth was my favourite.
I enjoyed the experience and it was good that it was not all beef, but saying that I knew which beef I was going for this time as it was my second time at Nabe.

[Review 5606] No photos allowed. WTF @ 肯德基家鄉雞 (KFC) Kentucky Fried Chicken

KFC serves chicken obviously but at Hong Kong's KFC they have three exclusive dishes that are totally different from the rest of the world!
They have curry with rice, beef rice and shabu shabu. I haven't been to Japan but they could possibly serve it as well because it is Japanese inspired.

Curry with rice:

Beef Rice:

Shabu shabu:
This was launched in September but the weather was too hot then to eat shabu shabu.

Recently, I went there specifically to try the shabu shabu and beef rice.

To my utter surprise I was stopped for taking photos which rarely happens in my blogging experience, not once was I even stopped in UK.

Maybe KFC HK is worried it might be laughed at by other international KFC branches!!

The shabu shabu comes with rice but I upgraded it to DOLLS instant noodles.

There is extra broth if you need it.

The ingredients were fresh and the burner kept burning until we finished.

As for the beef rice, it comes in a nice paper box with the beef separated in a plastic tray.

The beef was in this sweet onion gravy which tasted like oyster sauce.

Compared to Yoshinoya (a chain in Hong Kong that specializes in beef bowls), the beef was not as beefy but the presentation was neater.
