As I don't often roam in TST, didn't know it was a new dessert joint until I saw the reviews.
For me, I chose cake with tea and it was really good that they had my favourite Mightly Leaf Earl Grey.
It went well with my chocolate cake because it helped balance the heavy cream.
My friend had the shaved ice which turned out good enough for three people to share.
It was loaded with so much red beans, green tea pudding and mochi balls.
Definitely the dessert on a hot day.
They are going to change the menu soon so everything might be different on the next visit.



[Review 6685] Good variety of bagels !@ Bagels Alley

This bagel joint is nicely hidden so I keep forgetting to go.
Finally went but they were on holiday so went back another day.

There are lots of bagels to choose from so basically you choose your bagel, then the filling.
I chose the sun dried tomatoes with a creamy onion and chive filling.
It was wrapped and sliced in the middle served piping hot.
As it was hot that day, had to wait for it to cool down a bit before I could touch it.
It had the usual bagel texture with a soft chew complimented nicely by the creamy filling which turned out too heavy on a hot day.

Fish and Chips not by the sea

Recently went to the Kwun Tong Fish and Chick Plus and deliberately did not eat fish as I was planning on trying this new branch in Sai Ying Pun!
I love this new location even though it is not by the sea as the vibes in Sai Ying Pun is always good.
The menu for fish was more extensive and they had mushy peas and gravy according to Shambles.
For fish, I had Monk and Flounder served with shoestring fries and the normal chips.
Both fish were good in different ways but Monk is more delicate and chunky.
Also had mushy peas as well.

For dessert it was comforting they had carrot cake

Those were the days when Haagen Daaz was respected as an expensive icecream, but not anymore!
Practically everywhere you go, any so called softserve or icecream claiming to be from Japan is going to cost more than $30.
It was fate that I had the softserve because they have stopped serving pancakes.

The only thing that is special about this softserve is the appearance with the piping and the cone is different.
Thankfully, it tasted good as it didn't cause me to throw it away.
Although it was palatable, it wasn't the best softserve I have had but it merely tasted like evaporated milk in softserve form that wasn't too sweet.
The cone was really delicate that you had to hold it carefully as it literally crumbles and melts in your mouth like a thin cookie shaped into a cone..
Can't read Japanese so don't know what the 25% means!


[Review 6682] Make Tea not War @ Slluks T2

Make Tea not War
2018-07-09  176 瀏覽
At first it was a bit odd seeing their slogan "Make Tea not War" as it was rather English since we Brits are serious tea drinkers and constantly putting the kettle on.
Teas in HK are very different, they have to be fancy influenced by Taiwan such as fruit teas, floral teas etc whereas we drink straight teas or special tea blends.
At Slluks T2, it is totally different because it is a comic themed drinks parlour with Tea, Fruit Teas and Coffee.
It is definitely a joint for guys to hang out being located near CTMA where all the comics and toys are.
When I first heard of Slluks, I was like why that name as it didn't sound like any language.
It turns out that [Slluks] read backwards is [skulls] which is the comic theme there.
In the comic, the goodies wear the skull upside down whereas the baddies wear the skull the right way up.
Moving on to the drinks, there are straight teas, teas with different foam milk caps, fruit teas, smoothies, Nitrogen Ice Teas etc.
For me, I opted for the Nitrogen Iced Coffee which is such a head turner especially in Mong Kok.
Passers by are really falling for it and thinking hey this girl has walked off from a pub with a beer in a hand!
The nitrogen coffee comes out just like beer with all the bubbles and this lovely frothy cap on top and stays there for a bit too.
I don't often drink coffee but I really liked this one as the frothy cap helped to make it smooth and it wasn't too strong.
When you have finished with the drink, the beer mug is all yours!
I can't wait to come back as they also have a German Raspberry Tea in the N2 series and they have all these different flavoured foam caps like chocolate, strawberry and banana !

As it was that time of the year again got a box of zhongzhi for the old folks.
It comes in a neat box with three inside.
After steaming, they were all pretty delicious especially the savoury ones with scallops and the pork was not too fat.
The sweet one was popular with the folks as they like it sweet.
If I remember, I will probably get them again next year!

Great for gatherings

Went here on a Sunday and it was great being able to just get there in a flash without having to queue for the elevators because Fish and Chick is accessible by escalators to the 4th floor.
There was a bit of a culture shock with the menu as I'm used to the English one.
Anyway, I ordered the pasta as there is a third branch of Fish and Chick in Saiyingpun and the pasta is exclusive here.
As you can see, the pasta is flavoured evenly by the colour and it was strong and garlicky with an al dente texture.
For dessert, we had the lemon poppy seed cake which was light and delicious.
