Went here because I wanted to try the cheesy Korean noodles.
Unfortunately for both choices, it comes with a Korean soup base which is obviously hot.
Luckily they have another soup base so I didn't use the original because after I tried it, it was way to spicy.
The cheese things were filled with cheese and tasted quite artificial because it was too bouncy with no meat or fish taste to it.

[Review 5611] Expats secret Thai joint @ 迦米泰式小食 Tonkla Thai Snack

For years and years, I have been recommended by expats to try this place.
A few weeks ago I walked past and peeped into the shop and an expat who was dining there said I should go in and try.
Finally tried it one afternoon because I was in the area.
The menu was simple, the usual Thai stuff.
Anyway, I tried the chicken satay because it was recommended.
The chicken was fresh but the lemongrass was too strong for me and the sauce was too sweet.
Although not as good as expected, they put effort into their food and grilling the satays.

Perhaps I was expecting more on the decor but it was only the entrance and ceiling that was decorated.
Food wise, there were no surprises or disappointments because it was the usual fare you get from Wongjiasha.
Started with drunken chicken, the liquor was fragrant but the chicken was the usual skin and bones.
The crispy eels were sweet and crunchy but unfortunately something pricked my gums which I was bone but it was too black to be bone.
Bony spare ribs:
The vegetable dish was my favourite because it was light and healthy but strangely contained tomatoes.
The rice crackers tasted really good when you drenched it in sweet and sour sauce to make them go soft.
Finished with the noodles which took ages to untangle when the broth was poured into the noodles because the noodles were cold and clumped together when they arrived..

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 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!!
