I am not a fan of kitkat but tried this for fun, there is a chocolate version and matcha version.
Got the matcha as I thought it was going to be less sweet.
The chocolate cake was soft and moist with a nice layer of matcha filling but the matcha filling was quite sugary.
The matcha icing on top was a bit like light and sugary buttercream.
It is topped with a matcha kitkat which is just like eating white chocolate flavoured matcha!!!!

Snow Peak Eat comes from Japan and this is the second branch.
You can dine there or sit at the area which looks like a camp site.

Probably wise if you sit the camp site area as you will be surrounded by people queuing for Flippers.
I was surprised they had Tandoori Chicken salad so I got that and the beef curry.
As the tables and seats were low, I got the curry as it would be messy eating the baguette.

The tandoori chicken was really good with the usual tandoori flavour but the chicken was a bit firm.
It was quite difficult using the wooden forks to eat the salad as it just wouldn't pick up properly but the mayonnaise sauce complimented the salad very well.
The beef curry was good and it was nice and filling.
For drinks, had the berry aide, I loved the way the blueberries were skewered and the berries frozen into icecubes.
As a frappe lover, I got the mint mocha which was damn good!

Previously wanted to try this at Shek Tong Tsui but they didn't have the drink I wanted.
Was in Kowloon so tried the cold brew at this branch.
Strangely, there was a sour taste so I asked if the tea was meant to be sour and he took a sip and exchanged another one for me.
The second tea was better but the tea taste was not so strong and there was a minty after taste.
Amazing Tea has interesting graphics but not sure what they are trying to portray!!

Arome Bakery has launched lots of Daifuku Mochis but as I don't like Mango or Peach I didn't try them.
Now they have the Purple Potato Daifuku Mochi so I decided to get one.
The skin is so soft that it rips easily.
Anyway, there is a cake base at the bottom which is weird but probably there to give it some structure.
The overall taste was quite good as it was not too sweet.
I loved the skin which was sweet with elasticity and tastes like white rabbit sweets.

McDonalds has launched this super cute rabbit for Mid Autum festival!!!
You can buy then a la carte or in a set of four.
The quality is a bit different everywhere as some have eyes and some don't so I chose one that had both chocolate eyes!!!!!
Basically it is coconut mousse on the outside with mango filling in the middle.
The taste was not too sweet so it was palatable but it was quite milky and the mango taste was not that strong.

It is hard to miss Imsook if you are coming from the canal and it is in a prime location.
At the moment, they are doing a buffet promotion but I went for the a la carte.
The food was ok but I thought it was more suited for local tastes.
The chicken was good but it was mainly chicken skin and bones.
The vegetables just tasted like the usual vegetable stir fried together.
The oyster omelette was nice and crispy.
Finished with the pineapple smoothie which tasted like it was blended with canned pineapple.

After dining nearby, I was still hungry so ended up here.
It was a bit like a food court as there is a central cashier so ordering was quite confusing.

Got a tea and cake from the shop on the left.
It seems to be coffee brown but there is no info that they have a joint here.
Anyway, the tea was tasteless.
The cake fared better but it was dehydrated as it was not refrigerated properly as the sides were coarse and dry but the taste was quite nice with a strong earl grey taste to it.
