| - Been here several times already for breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner. Breakfast has some western items (toast/eggs/homefries) and some typical Hk cafe items (eg Spam with fried egg on vermicelli, pork bun sandwich). Afternoon tea menu has some of the morning selections as well.
I'm usually not a huge fan of Chinese style Portuguese sauce anything, but their Portuguese curry fish on bun was so fragrant and tasty. Though not as fluffy as the buns in Macau, Woodstone's buns are soft and chewy enough compared to Macau style buns at other cafes.
The beef brisket here is so tender and has flavour, unlike many other HK cafe. Totally worth getting as well for breakfast or afternoon tea.
Their BBQ pork (char siu) in tomato sauce and melted cheese with a fried egg on top was amazing. The tangy and sweet flavours of the tomato BBQ sauce with the egg yolk mixed in was perfect on a bed of steamed rice.
Their milk tea is served in cups larger than most other HK cafe cups. The milk and tea combination is just right. Trust, I have tried enough milk tea in GTA - some tastes like brown coloured evaporated milk, some tastes like watered down tea, some tastes way too bitter. I like their hot milk tea, but I don't think I would order their iced milk tea again because from the granules I saw at the bottom of my cup, their iced versions seemed to have been prepared from instant milk tea powder instead! :(
The price is a bit on the higher side but the seating environment is comfortable. The servers are friendly but slightly on the slower side (never got around to refilling our empty cups - when it's a hot day and you're pregnant, you'd want a constant water supply!) The seating area is clean but they really could spend a bit more work with the washroom - the floors were sticky and somewhat wet even around 10am in the morning.
Despite these little areas for improvement, I'd say I will keep coming back for the good!
