I noticed this joint a while ago serving cheap vegetarian burgers but didn't get a chance to try it as I was having chicken opposite.
Since I was in the area again, decided to check it out.

Used to work this area but unfortunately this place wasn't around then, it was more Chinese restaurants a while back.
The toilet sign is quite cool as aliens are welcome as well.

Tried all three vegetarian burgers: chicken, beef and fish.
The difference here is that they use Chinese style vegetarian meat patties in the burger.

The chicken was the best as it comes with juicy pineapple and a fiery sauce.
The second best was the fish as usually it is served with gravy Chinese style but it was different eating as a burger.
It would be great if there was some tartar sauce or mayonnaise.

The beef burger (Vegetarian) was a nice simple combination as you would expect with black pepper and cheese.

They all taste different in unique ways.
Quite a good deal as we had three burgers and the bill was under HKD170.

Decided to try out can.teen on a Sunday when all the office people have buggered off.As expected it was quieter.
It was my first time there as I would expect can.teen to be the usual local crap like mx, cdc and fairwood etc but this one was slightly different as they serve Earl Grey and other teas.
Perhaps the other branches of can.teen do but I haven't checked them out.

In Chinese it said {kayjun} so it sound like a Chinese pronunciation for CAJUN even though it just said fries on the English.
Ordered the wings and kayjun fries out of curiosity.
To be honest, I didn't have any expectation for the wings as most wings in hk are just dry and anorexic.
 0 讚好

The quality of the wings were amazing, succulent and springy and not anorexic.
They were not too salty either.
The fries were flavoured but the cajun wasn't that apparent but better than boring fries.

I also appreciated the nice plate they used and the choice of having other teas as opposed to the unpalatable HK style milk tea.
Will definitely return as the quality of the food that normally looks crap actually looked edible here.

A lucky experience

To be honest, I don't feel blessed or lucky having Japanese food in Hong Kong as most of the food served is Hong Kong Style or sweetened.
Another important issue is the oil which has to be kept fresh for consistency.

I was captivated by the pork chop sando so decided to give Fukuro Station a try, it is near Garden Bakery.
It is a small joint but there is a table that can seat four people and 2 more people at the bar.
As well as sandos, they serve Tamagoyaki egg rolls and bentos.
For the bentos, there are a choice of sauces.
As I was having the pork sando, decided to get the fried chicken bento, oyster cutlet and a mini Tamagoyaki egg roll.

The pork sando looked surprising good when it arrived, the pork chop was thick and perfectly fried.

The pork chop was tender and moist complimented nicely by the crunch of the cabbage and flavourful sauces.
The fried chicken was golden brown which shows their frying skills and fresh oil.



The curry sauce and the chicken went well.
Again the oysters were flawless and just simply delicious with mayonnaise.





Egg lovers will love the Tamagoyaki egg rolls as it was tender and fluffy!




Finished with the cold brew Genmaicha  which was the best genmaicha I have had because it wasn't roasted.

In general Okinawan sea salt icecream tastes good.
The ones I have tried are in tubs which are not as creamy as the softie version.
McDonald's are now serving it so decided to give it a try.

There are four to choose from, chocolate dipped, sea salt or sea salt with the original.
In my opinion, it didn't really need the chocolate as it tastes good on its own, and the lovely saltiness balances the sweetness and creaminess.

Will definitely get it again but without the chocolate.

As I was in the area, walked past the MS  joint and was captivated by the fried cod which was only HKD.15

Settled for the cod and squid stick with a drink.

The cod was as good as expected as the frying oil was fresh and it was decent cod in the middle with the skin attached which gives it a strong fish taste.
However, I didn't really like the squid and vegetable thing as it was a bit artificial in the sense that it probably only contained 5% squid in it.
The rest is just....The same theory as fish balls etc.

Definitely will be back for the cod.

[Review 7343] Rye Bread @ 聖安娜餅屋 Saint Honore Cake Shop

There are not many places that sell Rye Bread in Hong Kong.
St Honore now has it but as expected, it costs more than the average bread in their store

Got three packs to try.
It was was quite good they were sliced as I thought it was a bun inside as you can't really see from the packet.

The bread wasn't sweet by default, but it had raisins and walnuts in it which gave it some sweetness.
Although claiming to be Rye bread, it makes you wonder how much rye is actually in the bread.

Sanpokong is really gearing up in the food scene these days Thanks to more offices being nearby just like other industrial areas like Kwuntong, Kwaichung etc.A foodie friend got me this so I didn't have to trek into spk.

I really should go and visit as there are so many hip new cafes nearby.
Tried the yuzu chiffon which was soft and fluffy, not too sweet with a natrual yuzu taste.
There are other flavours too, so I recommend it if you are in the area.
