My husband and I keep passing by this place since it's on our way to work every morning and also 5 minutes from home. So finally we got to try it. Went in for afternoon tea time around 2:30pm which most HK Style Cafes start their Ham-cha menu. Got a parking right in the front (got lucky I guess since most reviews in here complained of limited parking... which is very true).
We got seated immediately and I couldn't wait to see the menu. But to my surprise there was none. It was up on the chalkboard and super limited items. I usually order my staple items during Ham-Cha at the other HK Style Cafes surrounding this neighborhood...which is Pork chop with fries/salad, Honey garlic chicken wings with fries/salad, Hoy-Lam-Gai-Fan with rice, Noodles in soup Guilin style or mini steak with fries. This menu had non of the staples. Weird. So I ended up ordering Pork Cutlet with urdon noodles which costed roughly about $10 for afternoon tea menu and veey plain looking. Kind of expensive if you ask me for afternoon tea menu. But I'll give it to them that the crust on the fried Pork chop was good.
Another downside was.. Their menu was do limited you barely have any choices. And some stuff on their menu they said wasn't available yet. So why put it up to tease us?
Service was friendly ... a bit slow, she forgot to bring us some utensils and a spoon to stir sugar into my husband's hot HK milk tea. How to stir your drink without a spoon? Just little things I think they still need practice on. Esp little things like this because it goes to show you trained your staff well and want to run an efficient restaurant. It also goes to show you care for your clients and want them to return with good impression.
I don't want to be hard on this new HK Style cafe, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they are new and haven't established running it well yet ... therefore I give this place 3 stars for the effort. Hopefully they will read these client reviews and take it as positive feedback to improve their restaurant and I wish them well on getting better with improvement.
