I didn't know that this was a restaurant at first, the name just sprouts out a store that sells furniture or any Chinese-related stuff but going in for the first time, the decor just looks fantastic even though places like Go For Tea establishes that even elegant and attractive decor doesn't necessary mean that you're going to have a great time here. What I saw is a hong style cafe that serves breakfast all day and specials that are affordable which is the best considering that I love eating breakfast.
Although when I found out that the owner is the same owner of the Korean BBQ next door, it wasn't really surprised that it would look good. Anyways the service was attentive even though I came here around ten o'clock on a weekday where the restaurant is completely empty.
It was good that they aren't like Go For Tea in a sense of attractive decor but terrible service, as I ordered a two eggs, bacon and 2 toasts and hong kong hot milk tea (with a sideorder of a hashbrown) and it didn't take that long for it. The presentation of the food looks neat, with square-shaped plates and I like it when they organised the portions well.
As for the food, the sunny-side eggs aren't really cooked enough to the point of only having the yolk be the liquid part, it really disgusts me if someone doesn't know how to cook a sunny-side egg to the point where you don't see white snot pouring with the yolk but aside from that the eggs are good. The bacon is also great complimenting the eggs and toast especially when you eat them all at once. The hashbrown however didn't taste like a hashbrown at all, it just taste like plastic and even McDonalds hashbrowns are better. The hot milk tea really hits the spot when you finished the meal.
For four dollars (with the hashbrowns), the meal is overall excellent, I really like this than the small bakery cafe near Finch Avenue West that serves breakfast all day as well.
Now that there's a place with breakfast all day I could easily see me coming here over and over again!
Pros: attentive and great service, breakfast all day, beautiful decor and affordable pricing.
Cons: not completely cooked egg
