A bingsut that serves souffle!
2017-03-25  156 瀏覽
Spotted this bingsut a mile away because of the colourful logo.
Went in for lunch and noticed they had souffle but I didn't try it as I am trying to cut down on proteins.

I had the rice noodles instead which came in a fish and potato broth served with lemon chicken wings.
You couldn't really taste the fish when it was hot but after it cooled down you could taste the fish.

I couldn't it very healthy and simple as there was no msg and it was light.

Next was the steak cutlet, just ordered it because I was curious!
The restaurant has an advantage because since the steak is covered they can choose an extremely fatty one!

I suppose the coating helps to keep it juicy and the surface doesn't get too burnt.



Strangely it was served with fried rice or spaghetti but this is bingsut style.

The tea was the usual HK milk tea and the fruit punch tasted like Ribena syrup.

[REview 5859] Selfie Cafe lunches @ Selfie Cafe

This is the second branch of Selfie Cafe located conveniently opposite an MTR exit hence the reason why I dined here.The lunches are quite affordable around 6x-8x.Had the steak with pepper gravy, it tasted like Chinese tenderized steak but at least it wasn't fat.The potato wedges were ok.

You can also print your photo on the drinks but they didn't really promote this service until I asked.The Earl Grey tea was ok but the milk they used was powdered milk and perhaps it would taste better with less sugar.

After choosing the Ribeye on the last visit, decided to come back for the tenderloin.

Went with more people so that we could try other meats as well.

Started with oysters, I liked the way the spinach leaf separates the cheese and oyster but the thing that let it down was oyster shells in the cheese and you could also see oyster shell bits on the paper.
The lobster was only $68 so don't expect it to be big.



As expected the tenderloin was meaty and flavourful.

The ribs were good but the meat didn't come off the bone easily.

It would be great if they pre sliced the steaks like Flat Iron in London since these novelty butcher knives are difficult to use.

Hoping to visit the hangout later.

The grilled cheese I had wasn't good but the veggie burger made up for it.

It reminded me of the burgers I had in London during the uni days because of the white mayonnaise.

The burger patty was yummy as it had blended broccoli and other veggies but the only thing that let it down was the crispy coating which was too hard, burnt  and the oil wasn't that fresh.

Back for butter chicken

This is my canteen for Indian food and it is conveniently right next to the MTR exit so I went on a rainy day.
As usual had saffron rice with the butter chicken.
The butter chicken is consistently good with a delicious sweet taste and brilliant with the saffron rice.
Also got the naan because their naans are damn good.
Finished with a mango lassi and lime soda.

I haven't had much luck with food trucks because you have to install the app to find out where, when and what.
Discovered this truck after the Taste of Hong Kong event so decided to get some chicken wings because everyone said it was good.
Also got the lemon drink which was freshly squeezed lemon and water, it was such a thirst quencher.
The chicken wings were separated into single bones which made it easy to eat and the coating was even and tasty.
Quite a good bargain because you get so many wings in the cup.

From the first time I tried it last year, I knew it was going to be a success from its loud and bold decor to its stylish artsy fartsy cake boxes.

Sadly, I have missed so many of their brilliant creations because the food scene in Hong Kong keeps you busy with so many new openings and trends.

Looking at their FB, they had some really good tarts that I missed and hopefully I won't miss it next time such as the CHERRY & TONKA TART, Cherry pandan, STRAWBERRY PISTACHIO TART  and the Champagne and lychee.
On this visit, I managed to try peanuts banana, fresh lime and yuzu chocolate.
+++++++++
peanuts banana:
I don't normally pick banana but this was surprisingly good because it is not too sweet and lighter than it looks with a delicious banana taste.

+++++++++

yuzu chocolate:

The yuzu has a wonderful tart citrus flavour that balances the chocolate just like orange and there is a layer of yuzu liquid that will burst out when you take a bite.

+++++++++

fresh lime:

The fresh lime was dreamy especially the pieces of white chocolate and egg white on top.

+++++++++

Looking forward to more flavours on my next visit.
