I had a craving for Spanish omelettes so decided to return here for it because the one here has liquid Japanese egg yolk inside.
For starters, we had the Hand sliced Acorn fed Iberico Jamon which was slightly waxy and oily with a salty touch to it without being too salty.
It was followed by creamy Iberico ham croquettes which were crispy filled with silky potato puree and tasty ham.
The Pan con tomate was really appetizing with tangy Spanish tomatoes on crispy Spanish bread slices flown from Spain.
Next was the flawless Spinach and pear salad with Idiazabal cheese, pecan nuts, pomegranite and 15 year old balsamic.
Everything was well balanced with the sweetness of the pear and bursting pomegranite seeds.
There were lots of choices for Ceviche but I liked the scallop ceviche because of the citrus dressing and chilis.
Basically I have a weak spot for citrus flavours because it is so moreish.
Next was Spanish cabinero with potato suquet and picada sauce.
This dish was unexpectedly filling because of the rich and soft fluffy potatoes beneath it.
I am picky with beef but the US beef fricando tenderloin and porcini veggies was excellent.
Every slice of beef was so tender that you could separate it with your fork.
The lamb cutlet with pearl onions, aubergines, romesco sauce was rich and the lamb was tender and moist.
I really appreciate how clean the lamb chops were because the fat had been trimmed and the lining has been removed from the bones.
The spanish omelette was just as good as the first time I tried it if not better because it had my favourite mushrooms and springy prawns while the liquid yolk was just unbeatable.
For dessert, we shared a dessert platter which had churros, chocolate tart, icecream and cheesecake.
The dessert is best paired with tea.
The mocktails that night were great too, my favourites were the strawberry and lime.

[Review 6421] I love Grubers @ Grubers

In HK, everyone is particular on how they like their burger patties for example the size and how well they are cooked and the quality of the beef.
Anyway, Grubers from Monaco are in HK and I just couldn't wait to try it because of their patties which are blended with fresh ingredients.
There are currently 7 blends of which five are beef, and the other two are chicken and veggie blend.
For $88, you can get a combo which includes a side and drinks.
[some drinks are not included but you can pay a few dollars extra to make it a combo].
Starting with the Sexy Fries, they looked like Crinkle cut flat chips and the best thing is that they had real mayonnaise because mayonnaise and chips are delicious and evilicious.

For the burgers, I tried the chimichurri beef, veggie blend and the chicken.
Chimichurri was clearly my choice over the Jalapeno and truffle because it is a blend of chopped parsley , minceed garlic, olive oil and oregano.
I could also taste some oregano dressing in the lettuce which brought out the flavours and the beef patty was springy and juicy.
As well as the beef, the veggie was another one of my favourite because it had potatoes in the blend.
Adding crispy bacon made it even tastier because the saltiness of the bacon goes well with the veggie patty.
Last but not least was the chicken blend, the chicken patty is dusted with grounded maize which makes it crispier and the chicken patty reminded me of the the UK Burger King chicken burgers.
To summarize, I think the best toppings to add are bacon and mushrooms and I am definitely coming back again!

[Review 6420] Loving Hut Revisited @ Loving Hut 愛家國際餐飲 (灣仔)

It has been years since I last went to Loving Hut.
They used to be across the road on the ground floor where 759 used to be and there was another branch at Telford Gdns which has moved to IMAX.
Every evening, they have a set meal where you can pick three items from the list.
That night, my friend had the crispy chicken in orange sauce and some other tofu items which were delicious.
I had the stir fried flat rice noodles which turned out really good because it doesn't have that smelly meat smell and it was loaded with so much vegetables.
For dessert, finished with the egg tarts which are eggless hence the middle bit was light and the texture is a bit like pudding.
The chocolate cake was a surprise because the dairy free cream tasted like cream and the egg free cake was rich and moist.

Every year during CNY, McDs will have the black pepper prosperity burger and twister fries on the menu.
I always find that the black pepper is too peppery for my liking so just for fun I decided to have it without the sauce this year.
Your'e probably thinking, why I didn't just order the regular hamburger but I just wanted to see if the beef patty was any different.
After trying it, the taste and texture is certainly different.
The texture is a bit like elastic frankfurters and Chinese steamed dimsum beef balls, while the beefy taste is not so apparent.
To summarize, it does taste better without sauce but I do try and avoid Beef Burgers, Chicken patties, sausage patties from McDs these days because it is processed meat apart from the Fish Burger where you can see real fish flakes.

I like this place because not many people know that they serve noodles during lunch as it is a pub.Decided to check it out again to see if the noodles were consistently as good as my previous visit.
They now have tossed noodles as well so tried the soup and the tossed.
The tossed noodles are more flavourful but I still prefer the soup noodles because of the chili kick and the noodles that they use are in harmony.
Also had the radish and prawn cakes.
The radish is a must order because they are sweet with a high water content.

[Review 6417] Vegetarian fix @ 印度素食 Smrat Pure Veg

Normally I get my Indian fix on the HK side but Smrat seemed quite popular that I made an effort to try it for vegetarian food.
As well as Smart, there is Saravanaa Bhavan which is also quite good.
I was excited that there was curd rice (yoghurt rice) on the menu which I have tried in Central.
It is a lovely soothing and cooling rice mixed in yoghurt which goes well with fiery curries.
Anyway, when I ordered it, she advised I wouldn't like it, but dur!! I have already tried it.
Ordered the peas with rice which turned out like Chinese fried rice except it was laced with spices like cardamon and some others.
Also had the gobi masala which was in a tangy tomato sauce, adding lemon juice made it even better because I love lemon.
I planned to try more but the attitude was just weird and I didn't feel like wasting money on ordering more items when I can get better Indian fare on the HK side.
DO REMEMBER TO CHECK YOUR BILL BECAUSE THE LASSI WAS CHARGED MORE THAN THE MENU AND WHEN I ASKED, SHE DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING UNTIL I SAID I SAW IT ON THE MENU AND THEN SHE SAID, OH THE OTHER MENU!!
Felt sorry for the other couple at the back because the TV was above them and they turned the volume right up but they turned it down after they complained.

Went here for a quick bite because I love muffins.There were a good variety.
I had the avocado, feta muffin which was good but the filling was quite stingy and the muffins were a bit dehydrated otherwise it would have been perfect.
Finished with the MaoFeng Green tea which was strong with a leafy taste.
