Salted Egg Cookie at Homie Cookies
Homie Cookies (尖沙咀)
This was my first time trying Homie Cookies even though they have been around for quite a while. There was a cookie counter at K11 with lots of flavours. I was attracted to the salted egg because I thought it would be interesting. The texture of the cookie was soft and crumbly but not quite the chewy texture I was looking for. As for the taste, it was not too soft and the salted egg yolk flavour came through but without the saltiness so the flavour was quite light.

[Review 6769] Runny cheese toast @ 文華饕記

This restaurant used to be a steak house called Carlo Riva but now it is a Hong Kong style cha chaan teng.
I was still hungry after dinner so went here to get a second round.
Ironically I sat on the same table that I sat before on the previous visit and ate something similar.
I had the HK style toast filled with runny cheese which was also a cheese as I had raclette when I went to Carlo Riva.
Anyway, the lady asked me if I wanted syrup with it and I was like Hell no.
Syrup and Cheese, hmmmmm but anyway they give you the syrup separately and luckily not poured on.
The cheese wasn't runny and it tasted like those melted cheese triangles wrapped in foil.
I don't know the brand they use in HK but in UK we have dairylea triangles.
The overall taste was ok but I would have preferred cheddar.

It's been a while since I have last been here for dinner buffet.
The buffet selection is quite Chinese which is great for the old and young while tourists can sample everything from noodles to dishes.
The roast beef was pink and tender, just how I liked it.
On the side, was a selection of mustards and delicious gravies.
There is plenty of seafood which is a must for Hong Kongers as they are just concerned in whether it is worth their money.
In the Japanese section, they had these cute little bowls of donburi!
For desserts, they have a range of Haagen Daaz icecream and shaved ice.
The ice is flavoured by the syrups and pineapple was my favourite.
As well as the buffet dessert selection, they are also serving classic temptations which include the banana split, cherries jubilee and strawberry sundae.
I love the Cherries Jubilee which was a whole plate of alcohol infused cherries with icecream.

I was drawn here by the cute dim sums and when I got closer, I realized it was an express shop for dimsum on the go!!

Kung Fu Dim Sum has joined the dimsum to go business but you can also eat in if you don't live nearby.

On each table they have outlets to charge devices using USB or plugs.
I was surprised that it was an open kitchen where you can see them cook the bojaifaans.

For food, the cute steamed buns were a must so I got one each.
Also got the spare rib bojaifaan as they were made to order.
Each of the steamed buns were very different.
The durian one was surprisingly nice and not too sweet compared to McDonalds cloyingly sweet D24 puree.
The Watermelon custard bun gave me another surprise.
I was expecting yellow custard but it was watermelon colour, and it even had black sesame seeds to imitate the seeds which is the right size in ratio in comparison to the bun!!!

As for the matcha bun, you have to eat with caution as the filling was as runny as water that it goes everywhere!!

+$40 cold brew oolong tea with Osmanthus ice ball or rose ice ball tea with oolong
+$30 a pot of ginseng oolong or lychee red tea for two.
The tea set is served in a beautiful wooden box which has decoupage on it by Gillian H.

Items in the Tea Set:
Savoury items:
Tofu in Honey Osmanthus sauce, Chilled Prune noodles in Rose buckwheat sauce, Mini floral rolls and crab mentaiko
Sweet items:
Lychee and Rose mousse cake, Rose Cupcakes, Rose Palmiers, Dried flower Butter cookies, Lavender oolong icecream, Jasmine and Rose icecream.

It was a nice way to appreciate floral ingredients in different forms like cake, cookies and icecream.
My favourites was the mini floral rolls crammed with lots of dried flowers while the tofu was enhanced by the honey osmanthus sauce.
To finish off, the tea was good especially the one with the ice balls as they were pretty and floral flavours come out when it melts.

The decoupage workshop was fun and once you have learned the technique you can apply it to other stuff.
It felt like paper mache but using decoupage to blend in the fabric to look like it was painted.

I actually came here for the bagel but the menu didn't have it that day.
Tried other stuff and luckily they were good and made up for the bagel.
The fish ad chips which I didn't have expectations were so good that the fish was similar to the battered fish in UK.
Sadly, they didn't have vinegar and were totally surprised why I requested for vinegar.
The eggs benedict was interesting especially the sauce as it tasted like salad cream mixed with something.
Also had the Hokkaido cream cake which was a great ending.
For drinks, they had ginger ale, coffee and tea.

Truffle is getting cheap these days that you can now get scrambled eggs with truffle for breakfast.
Decided to try the dark chocolate soft-serve as everybody was saying how good it was.
The chocolate soft-serve was strong and not too sweet but not the chocolate flavour that I was looking for as I felt that the cocoa taste was too powdery.
