Luxurious All you can eat

To be honest, I haven't been to these all you can eat restaurants for a long time and it has changed so much.

Firstly it is more environmentally friendly as you can order from the app.
(However they do have the order sheets for those who do not have smartphones).
Secondly, there is so much variety at TONO.

Not only was there Japanese food, there was Chinese food such as fish maw and abalone, herbal chicken feet soup and Sichuan pickled vegetable fish.

The Japanese food was good as expected so I decided to try the Chinese food to see if it was just as good.
I have to admit, I loved the coconut chicken soup and the abalone with fishmaw.
On the meat side, these were my picks, juicy lamb racks, chicken wings, grilled chicken wings and eel.
As well as ordering items to the table, the dessert bar and cooking stations had so much to offer like uni rolls, stir fried beef that will keep you busy the whole night.

Creamy uni hand rolls that were fresh and sweet:

Rest assured the dessert range does not disappoint with a wide range of desserts, fruits to icecream but I have decided to finish with plums and mangosteens as they are healthy and not many buffets offer it.

Since this visit, I've been wanting to go back again.

Glad Subway is popping up all over the place because TKT lacks a sandwich shop.Many years ago, there used to be HERO sandwich but that went.
Just had the bbq meatballs this time which were new and they were smoky and sweet.
The sauce was really strong and it is the same as the sauce you get for the sandwiches.
Also tried the branch at AsiaExpo but the prices are very different.

Stopped by Starbucks on the way to elements.
This branch does not have anywhere to sit but there are seats opposite.
Spotted this green sandwich which turns out to be Spinach salmon with cream cheese HKD29 so decided to try it.
Out of curiosity I just had to inspect it to see if the filling was uniformly distributed and the lettuce obviously wasn't!
I LOVE THE WAY HONG KONG CHEATS PEOPLE WITH THE PACKAGING SO THAT YOU CAN'T SEE THAT IT ISN'T FILLED ABOVE AND BELOW THE EDGES AS THERE IS CARD TO COVER IT.

There wasn't much cream cheese either.
Apart from the fillings, it was quite nice because the dill made it tasty but the sandwich was a bit dry.

Decided to make a trip to Foodium but the food was boring so just pondered into HM without the intention of getting anything.

Unfortunately, they had new musubis again and all three were stuff I liked, luckily only two of them were available.

Started with the Hiroshimana Greens with dried whitebait as it should be lighter in taste out of the two.
I loved the crunchy vegetables which were complimented by the aromatic black and white roasted sesame while the white bait gave it a nice savoury taste.
Moving on to the Spicy minced meat in Hiroshima style, I was surprised at how delicious this was because it tasted like a Chinese pork dish!!!!
If you look at the ingredients, it has Shaoxing rice wine, bean paste, five spice powder, Sichuan powder and Chinese seasoning!!!
The best thing was that the pork was finely minced and fresh so I will probably have this again.

Sadly, I am going to get HM again as they have LEMON CHICKEN which is making me curious how it would taste as a musubi!!

I was actually in for a surprise when I went here.

They had slow pressed juices and you could order drinks that were 100% sugar free.

I was actually doubting if they would be sugar free as usually taro and purple sweet potato are made with powders but ordered anyway.

There was a choice of purple potato or taro.
Purple potato is trending now but I had the taro because it is not as sweet compared to purple potato and less shops serve taro these days so you have to go to proper Taiwanese joints.

To my surprise, both were the real deal.
The cold pressed OJ was sweet and thick in the sense you could taste all parts of the orange from the pulp to the orange membrane.
Then the taro was exactly what I wanted, it didn't have any colouring and there were real pieces of taro so it was very satisfying as well as healthy.

Will definitely be back for the Sweet purple potato milk when I am in the area.

I was just looking for a drink and ended up getting a buckwheat tea from here.
As well as buckwheat, there are other drinks to choose from.
It was a memorable buckwheat tea as there were other ingredients as well as buckwheat.

You can see pieces of carrot in it and well as buckwheat and green tea leaves.

The tea was quite nice as the buckwheat was quite prominent.
I will probably visit again knowing it as the buckwheat place as the Chinese and English name is difficult to remember as you can't really see it on the logo.

Bollywood + Spam Fries

I found out about Barbeland because a friend went and told me about it.
At first I wasn't sure what to make of it because the name is similar to Barbie but it wasn't that type of Barbie but still girly and pink.

In the end I decided to go because there were pictures of spam fries served in can.
When I got there, I loved the black plastic Gothic photo frames against the striped pink and white wall.

The chairs had Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe which reminded me of this strange Sichuan joint in MK called SPICY GIRL as they also had similar Marilyn Chairs and these weird Cartoon girl chairs.

There were board games as well as darts.

The best thing was the music videos because I love Bollywood and not so much of K Pop.

For drinks had the Mary Go Round which was a lovely concoction of ginger and pineapple with a fizz.

Next came the spam fries which were so much fun being served in a can.

Tried them hot and as they gradually cooled down.
Both temperatures tasted good. When they were hot, they were like fries with a soft squidgy texture and when they were cold they tasted saltier so went well with the ketchup.
It would have been perfect if there was rice because I love eating spam with rice.

Finished with some tea to quench my first!

Will definitely be back as this place rocks and I love BOLLYWOOD and there is a young version of Eason (Vxxxxxxt)
