Affordable | HK style Cafe | Modern | Outdoor seating | Creative | Average Food Quality
I came for lunch at 1pm:
Ordered the famous Haienesse Chicken Rice .. dont have .. ordered dessert (molten chocolate) that was advertised on each table ... didn't have ... all day ... it's only lunch time ...
The original location was in Richmond Hill (Leslie/Hwy 7). It was small only seated a few tables but the food was delicious and I specially liked their Indonesian Chicken Rice with Egg dish. Coming to this location hoping to get the same quality was a disappointment.
Green curry seafood rice
Tasted like watered down curry water. There was no kick and no fragrance a green curry should have. The seafood was what I expected (mussels, squid, shrimp, etc.). The mussles didnt seem like they were frozen to me so that was a thumbs up. But in general the "curry" was very disappointing.
Tiger shrimp stir fry vermicelli
It was an okay stir fry dish. Nothing spectacular. Literally what it was.
Steak and fries
Skinny fries with steak piece, complimented with beans, zucchini and carrots. It was okay but at the cost of $17 you be the judge.
HK milk tea/ mix
One of the most failed part of my experience was the HK milk tea. I took one sip and I put it aside. It was not creamy, it tasted watered down, there was no texture or taste that an HK milk tea should have. I then gave it a second try and the mix tea try too. All were disappointing. Being a restaurant in Markham/ Richmond Hill area with so many HK Cafe competitors l, they really need to up their game on this beverage. To me, this tasted like am instant mix made drink. Zero effort.
