Taiwanese Cart Noodles in Central
2018-10-12  337 瀏覽
This is the second Taiwanese cart noodle joint in Hong Kong.
The first branch is near CWB in between Wanchai and CWB.
Anyway, I love Central so went to this branch.
As expected, this branch was good as the self service kiosk had English whereas the CWB one didn't when I went.
It was Monday so I decided to just order Vegetables with rice vermicelli.
The broth was light as expected which goes well with baby corn and tofu, the whole thing was light and healthy.

The oyster noodles were thick and strong, it was like having HK mock shark fin soup because you put vinegar and pepper in it but it was tasty so I didn't need it.
It was topped with juicy plump oysters which were soft and a taste of the sea.

Will definitely be back when I am hungry as this place is conveniently located on Wellington Road.
Will definitely be back when

Every time I come here, there is something new to try!!!!!!
This time, the surprise had to be the peanut tofu which is made from peanuts and not soy beans.
Beside the tofu block were these huge looking beansprouts~!!
The beansprout like giants are actually sprouted from peanuts!!!!!!!
Apart from the size, they tasted like normal bean sprouts and the curd was deliciously complimented by the sauces.
Although this dish isn't launched for Halloween, I feel that it would make a Halloween dish.
Next was the maple salmon which was glazed with a beautiful autumn colour.
It was sweet with a lovely maple taste and the kale beneath it was scrumptious.
The efu noodles were a bit too creamy for my liking.
Finished with the Sichuan style bloody mary and black sesame cocktail.
Can't wait to see their what they have in store next time!

Fell for HM again when I did not intend to buy it, this time fell for the clams and vegetable soup which was served piping hot.
It was nice and clear with finely chopped vegetables.
As there were clams in it, there was a unami aftertaste.
There was okra, clams, carrots, sweetcorn and courgettes which all make it healthy and the sweetcorns gave it it a lovely sweet taste.
Finished with the rich melty egg yolk which tastes good every time as the filling is rich and tasty that compliments every grain of rice.

Thai Perfect is quite a spacious restaurant with lovely Thai decor, although I have not been to Thailand but it feels like you are there.

Ordered some dishes for sharing.
The yellow curry was quite good as it was not too spicy with a nice sweetness.

The appetizer was good for sharing.

My favourite was the curry which was served in a pumpkin that was soft and delicious.


It was great with rice.
Finished with the desserts.


The coconut sago was creamy with al dente sago at the bottom.
Will return for here for gatherings.

Staunton's Wine Bar & Cafe cannot be missed when you get the escalators!!!!
It is like the central gathering place to relax and have drinks.
Upstairs you will find a nice place to dine as well and they have vegetarian and gluten free dishes.
Tried the salad bowl which had all my absolute favourites like hummus, julienne purple cabbage etc spiced and dressed with tasty dressings.
The chickpeas and ripe avocado was damn good.
It was quite filling at first but then you get quite hungry hence the chocolate gluten free brownie makes a good dessert.

Since Tsuta opened, there are now two branches.
At Causeway Bay, they have just launched the new Teriyaki Chicken Soba and Teriyaki Spicy Chicken Soba along with Deep fried chicken and some gyozas.
Chicken is much nicer compared to pork so I had to try it and the soba they use is slightly different to ones they use in the Shio Soba as it is thinner.

Same as the other sobas, you can choose how many pieces of chicken, egg etc in your soba.

IT IS CONFUSING HERE BECAUSE THE CHINESE MENU SAYS RAMEN WHEREAS THE ENGLISH MENU SAYS SOBA.
ANYWAY FOR THE CHICKEN THE ENGLISH MENU SAYS SOBA.

[Teriyaki Spicy Chicken Soba]



[Deep fried chicken]


To summarize, the Teriyaki Chicken is quite sweet and the non spicy one has a stronger chicken taste in the broth.
For the spicy one, this one was interesting, if you eat it just as it is you get the spiciness but after you add the tomato paste in the broth it becomes more appetizing and brings out the chicken!!!!!
The fried chicken was good for sharing if one ramen isn't too enough for you but then they also have large ramens.

[Review 6893] Tiger Stripe Red Bean Matcha @ McCafe

Tiger Stripe Red Bean Matcha
2018-10-09  54 瀏覽
Tiger Stripe drinks are trending these days aka brown sugar milk where brown sugar is smeared on the cup filled with milk so that the colour contrast looks like Tiger stripes.
McDonalds is smart as they are using Red Beans instead of brown sugar syrup.
[They have a reliable source for red beans as they occasionally have desserts with red beans and if it doesn't work they can use it for something else.]
As well as red beans, they are collaborating with Vitasoy according to the menu,
To my surprise, I actually liked it because the matcha was slightly viscous like milkshake with a slight savoury aftertaste while the matcha was not too grassy.
