One evening, my mum and I had somewhere to be nearby and needed an early dinner. She mentioned there's this Hong Kong style cafe behind Gal's Sushi on Hwy 7, so we decided to try it.
When we walked in at 5:30pm and requested a table for two. They asked if we had a reservation, I looked around the restaurant and it was empty except for the 3 employees standing by the cash desk. Would it have mattered we had made a reservation or not?
We were each given a 1 page, double-sided menu. But I seriously just wanted wanted a bowl of shrimp dumpling with rice noodle in soup. The menu lacks these simple basic cafe items, but it's definitely different. I ended up ordering a bowl of beef brisket rice noodle soup with some sort of spicy pickled vegetables. Nothing memorable, it was just meh.
There are a lot of TVs in this place and during my visit, they were airing football/soccer, and football bunting across the place.
So is this place a sports bar or a Hong Kong style cafe? I'm not too sure.
