| - I went here on an early Saturday night with two of my friends looking for some nice HK cafe style food. It was pretty busy here so I was looking forward to the food. There were quite a few nice reviews and it was the reason why we chose to eat here other than Blue Ocean just a few steps away.
I would have to say that the portions alone would be a reason for me to come back here. I ordered the Mixed Meat set menu meal which came with two pieces of garlic toast, a choice of cream or borscht soup, the main meat entree with your choice of sauce (which included two pieces of fried chicken, a pork chop, a hot dog, a piece of bacon, a slice of ham and a slab of steak) on a bed of fries, carrots and cabbage, with a choice of rice or spaghetti (or extra fries), a hot or cold drink and ice cream. I mean I know set meat menus usually consist of this stuff but that main entree was so much food that it was so worth it for me. Although my complaint was that it lacked a little flavour because I asked for a garlic sauce and I didn't really taste it. All that for about 15.99 or 16.99 I think, pretty worth still.
My friends also had the set meat menu, one had the pork chops and steak option and the other had the chicken steak. We found out that if you ordered fries as your carbs option, that it was weird that we would be defaulted fries and you could just get more so it sort of felt like it wasn't worth it in that sense. We also got a French Toast with Peanut Butter on the side and it was alright, we couldn't really taste the peanut butter as it was very subtle and that you would get corn syrup as the sauce so it wasn't very sweet. Some people might prefer that.
Overall, I felt like I got a really good deal and the food wasn't horrible, it just wasn't outstanding. So if you want to get something cheap for a lot of food then I think this is a good spot. I am willing to try their other food and I might have a change in heart about taste.
