| - I've been to this place for breakfast a few times with my family, and it was pretty good. I feel like the restaurant itself could definitely use an upgrade though because the silverware, plates, tables, chairs, etc. all seem pretty old. Also, I find their choice of media to play on TV to be pretty questionable at times.. I mean, does anyone actually like watching aerobic workout videos while they're eating?
Moving on. I really liked their HK style French toast. It was thick, and the outside had a really nice crispy texture. The flavor of the French toast in combination with the syrup and butter was seriously addicting.. I always found myself wishing there was more after I was finished with it. The rice noodle rolls were pretty standard.. I think they would definitely be better if they were softer. The pineapple bun with butter was about what I expected, so I didn't have any complaints about that. The "omelette" (basically just egg with ham) was a little strange to me. There was some sort of yellow-ish liquid inside of the omelette that I found to be pretty odd. The satay beef with vermicelli was a very simple bowl of noodle soup, but I actually liked the flavors way more than I thought I would. The beef was soft, and the flavor of the satay beef mixed surprisingly well with the vermicelli and soup. We also ordered a large vegetarian platter (not positive this is what it's called) to go. It was really good, but I honestly wasn't a huge fan of the curry variation.
The service was straightforward and to the point, but they do seem to be a little understaffed most of the time (waitresses speed walking everywhere). The prices were more than reasonable. Overall, this restaurant seems like a good place to go for a quick, simple, and cheap meal. The food is very worth it for the price, but there are definitely better restaurants out there in this area. I would still gladly come here again. 3.5/5
