Snapper fish broth specialist
2018-09-10 32 瀏覽
Went here because I love fish.
They serve fish maw which women love because of the collagen.
The noodle was my favourite because the fish gas bladder was big and generous however the fish maw wasn't soft enough.
As well as the fishy stuff, the tofu puffs absorbed the broth nicely.
Also had the beef beef cubes which was juicy and tender, but I still prefer the fish soup.

[Review 6833] Hot Chocolate @ Bluebird Coffee

Discovered this new coffee shop which opened not long ago.Unfortunately it was too new hence the drinks selection was limited so there were no teas or cakes.
Anyway, had the hot chocolate where you can choose the size so had the small.
The hot chocolate had a strong cocoa powder taste which was not too sweet. When I got to the bottom, there was more cocoa residue at the bottom.
Found out that they made it with a mixture of cocoa and chocolate syrup.
Overall a nice place for drinks and hope to see more selection.

Got these mooncakes from Food Monster!!!
There is another branch in Laichikok so if you are working in the area then it is really convenient.
The durian mooncakes were quite nice with a strong durian flavour that was not artificial.
As for the mooncake pastry it was soft when it was defrosted and the filling too.
The sweetness just right and there was a fair bit of real durian in it.
Will return and try other products.

Opposite this shop is Big Sister snacks so this tea shop could also be it's sister branch.
Anyway, I was captivated by the cold brewed tea, not because of the method of steeping tea but the bottle!!!
I also paid $10 extra for the drinks holder because it was cute.
The tea was very cold and you could see there were two teabags in there.
It was oolong so it had a nice grassy bitter taste.
Quite thirst quenching so I will be back if I am in the area.

[Review 6830] Made to order guacamole @ 11 Westside

Made to order guacamole
2018-09-08 222 瀏覽
11 Westside is a well hidden hip modern Mexican restaurant on the West side of Hong Kong in Kennedy Town!!
Hence the name Westside and not Westside Story which first came to mind.
Hidden in the restaurant is a secret bar where there is a special way of getting in there.
Started with a mocktail which was an appetizing drink before dinner.
Moving on to dinner, we began with the customizable guacamole which is made in front of you.
11 Westside is probably the first Mex restaurant that offers freshly made guacamole where you get to see the ingredients and how they make it.
What I liked is that you get to try it before they serve it so you can have more lemon/salt etc according to your taste preference.
The next thing I liked was the enchiladas which had a modern twist with pickles and crispy vegetables garnishing.
I love Tacos and there are so many to choose from.
My favourites were the Baja Fish and Veggie.
They reminded me of the Taco Truck days!!
On the veggie side, had the beetroot salad and the Echo Park Sweet Corn.
The horchata was light so I still had room for dessert.
Finished with the classic Ami’s Tres Leches Cake which was fantastic as I love cake and cream, although there is more than just cream as Tres Leches involves three different milks poured on top of the cake!

Nice vibes at Te Quiero Mucho

Discovered that this place was open as I saw pictures of the opening party.
Went upstairs and I loved the hip decor and they have these cool cocktail skull chalices.
During lunch, they serve the set lunch or a la carte.
It was difficult choosing between the rice or chicken but I ended choosing the Tumbada rice as I haven't seen it at any other Mexican restaurant.

I am not a fan of watermelon but the watermelon lime was included.
After taking a sip, I loved it as the sparkling lime water went really well with the watermelon.
Super regretted not ordering the guacamole as a starter after seeing pictures of it on soc med.
The Tumbada rice reminded me of gumbo but without the strong spices and fieriness packed with seafood.
For dessert Tres Leche was really good!
The cake was light and fluffy and not too sweet.
The structure of the cake was interesting as it was like a loofah without symmetry.

Will be back for the chicken and guacamole.

A big bowl of pin noodles
2018-09-07 267 瀏覽
Went here randomly as I haven't tried this restaurant.
They serve dimsums but rarely do you find silver pin noodles on the menu so I ordered the Garlic XO sauce pin noodles.
For $38, it was a huge portion.
Unfortunately it was too salty and the garlic taste was too strong.
It was a great deal for $38 but I just couldn't finish it as it was too salty for your own good.
Compared to the Sheung Wan branch, the pin noodles there are presented in a nest bowl.
