明洞 Express @ 尖沙咀 - 快平靚正之韓風 / Good Korean fast food

明洞 Express @ 尖沙咀 - 快平靚正之韓風

Lunch 找東西食, 講下講下講到食韓國嘢, 就二話不說飛的去尖沙咀明洞 Express食個快平靚正的Lunch.

我本人喜歡韓國有辛辣又有甜味的食物, 所以叫左辛辣泡菜年糕炒拉麵. 出去點完餐後就會拿到一個 BiBi Call 機, 等架機一響就去攞東西吃!

攞到返黎聞到D辛辣味就差D連口水都流出黎. 先講前菜. 泡菜比較酸不算辣, 薯仔香辣超開胃. 個湯好飮, 胡椒味夠重, 多蔬菜夠, 然後我就喝光!

前菜: 泡菜 & 薯仔

然後到果辣炒辛辣麵年糕, 辣得平均, 沒有感到半點死辣, 而且辣中有甜, 好惹味! 年糕有咬口, 再吸左D辣汁, 很好食!

結論: E間舖可以一試，然後再試.

Myeongdong Express Korean Fast Food @ Tsim Sha Tsui

You may have tried the Hong Kong style fast food in Hong Kong, but how about the Korean fast food? Now, let me share a good Korean fast food shop in Tsim Sha Tsui to you. That shop is called Myeongdong Express and one of my favor dish in there is called "Stir Fried Rice Cake with Kimchi and Ramen (aka: Tteokbokki)".

So for the source, it is not just spicy but it also has a sweet taste in it. So you may say the taste is funny which I agree but honestly it tastes very good. Besides, the rice cake is so tender and it absorbs the sweet and spicy source which you will feel very exciting when you are having them.

Besides, the side dish - Kimchi, also a good one. It is not very very spicy, so just try it and you will love it!

Next time if you stop by Tsim Sha Tsui, go there for a quick lunch or dinner as to feel what kind of Korean fast food it is!

Cheers!  

Conclusion: Can go for a try

西貢咖啡餅店 @  西貢 - 鍾無艷式的蛋糕麵包 R6AUY46QESYN 

介紹多一間麵包店給大家, 依間叫西貢咖啡餅店. 我想其實依間麵包店都己經很有名, 有人說這麵包店的大大個的菠蘿包很好食, 也有人說平平無奇.  點都好, 只要是本人覺得好的, 就會在這裏推一推給大家.

Sai Kung Cafe & Bakery @ Sai Kung 

Let me introduce one more Bakery shop in Sai Kung to you. It is called Sai Kung Café & Bakery and actually it is quite famous in Sai Kung Downtown already. Some people like the cake and bread in there while some other said the pastry in there does not taste good. So, whatever…as long as I think the food is good, I will tell you in my blog honestly.

So I like the bread (or cake) called Chocolate Cake-Bread and from the photo, you can see it is a mix of chocolate cake and white bread together. Look weird and sound bizarre, right? But after you have a bite, you can feel the taste is so good as the taste of chocolate is so rich while the white bread is full of the taste of butter.

Just stop by this shop and buy the Cake-Bread for a try, then you will have the tendency to buy it again next time.

Cheers!

Mushroom Bakery @ 西貢 - 平靚正的牛角包 / Delicious Croissant

Mushroom Bakery @  西貢 - 平靚正的牛角包

上回寫了一篇某大飲食集團在銅鑼灣 Shopping mall開的麵包店 (link), 主要是想講那間店的牛角包和衍生出來的問題.  既然講開牛角包, 就等小弟介紹下一間位於西貢的麵包店 - 磨菇麵包店 Mushroom Bakery.

Mushroom Bakery

每次入新西貢都會走去磨菇麵包店買D麵包返屋企慢慢食. 昨天去西貢食完果Lunch再去橋咀島玩完後, 就走左去磨菇麵包店買牛角包. 原本想買原味點知賣完, 好在仲有袋朱古力, 如果唔係就真係白行一趟.

Chocolate Croissant / 朱古力牛角包

磨菇麵包店的牛角包, 表面看似無特別, 但其實牛油的香味全都在麵包裏, 而且牛油的份量也很適中, 不會過多而令你我覺得好似食舊牛油咁. 此外, $12 就有2個咁好食的麵包, 眞係去邊度揾?

學肥媽話: 食平D! 係唔係?

結論: E間舖可以一試，然後再試.
 
Mushroom Bakery @ Sai Kung

Referred to my previous article which talked about the croissant from Urban Bakery in Causeway Bay, let me continue this topic and introduce one of the best bakery shops in Hong Kong to you.

So, that bakery shop is located in Sai Kung and is called Mushroom Bakery. I like their croissant as the bread is so soft and the butter favor is so rich. What I said "rich" means the pastry chef  mixed the butter and flour at the right potion and when you are having a bite, you won't feel you are eating "a big trunk of butter" but rather than a soft and sexy croissant.    

$12 for 2 pcs. Cheap & good taste. What else!?

If you don't trust me, why don't you goto that Bakery shop and buy some for a try. By the way, other types of bread and cake in there are also good. So don't miss it and let me know your comment after you have tasted any of them.

Cheers!


Conclusion: Good to go for a try

Urban Bakery @ 銅鑼灣 - 痴痴為你(牛角包)等, 值得嗎? / Wait for 20 minutes as to buy a Croissant?

Urban Bakery @ 銅鑼灣 – 痴痴為你(牛角包)等, 值得嗎?

今天是本人第一次逛銅鑼灣希慎廣場的Jasons . Food & Living, 見到條長長人龍排隊等 Urban bakery 新鲜出爐的牛角包, 原本想轉身就走, 但因久聞此bakery的大名, 而且身邊朋友毎個都話好味, 好奇的我就去排隊, 想買番果試下.

Urban Bakery

排左20分鐘終於排到我, 有理冇理都買個原味同杏仁牛角包, 在price tag上有”AOC”的法國認證, 有此title的故然是保證…但我想..將此放在香港就好像是一位出身名門的人在銀光燈下被人利用作marketing似的. 哀乎  !? 難道其他麵包店出爐的牛角包, 沒有”AOC”就等於沒有保證? 唔好味?

Plain Croissant HK$11.7 each

Plain Croissant 

無疑原味牛角包的牛油很香, 又有外脆內軟的酥皮, 很香口.  另一款的杏仁牛角包包面有很多的杏仁和砂糖, 每口了牛油香外又有甜味, 的確很誘人.  不過, 其實在歐洲 (或在香港) 牛角包是很普通的食物,歐洲人每天都有會買來吃的早餐 (在香港也有此機會買來作早餐), 街角的麵包師傳(歐洲和香港)都很會做到很好味,  咁點解這普通平民化又好食的食物, 落在Urban bakery 手上,為何會這麼好賣而要又賣到$12 - $ 13一個(街角的麵包店可能只需$6- $ 7一個, 味道可能一樣好味)? 是因為有”AOC”? 有大財團back up就一定有水準? 有marketing & promotion? 有羊群效應? 有人云亦云?

Almond Croissant ~ HK$13.5 each

Almond Croissant 

我問我自己, 如果以上的提問中只要有一個答案是Yes, 那我想我的味蕾跟腦神經應該给市場化了…哀乎  !?

結論： E間舖可以一試，然後不用再試

再續篇: 

May 4 - Will you wait for 20 minutes as to buy a Croissant?

Yes, will you wait for 20 minutes as to buy a croissant in the Urban bakery of Jasons Supermarket in Hysan Shopping Mall, Causeway Bay? Well, I just did it on yesterday. 

So was it taste good? Yes, it tasted good but it is not worth to wait so long for it? Actually, the bread was so common in the World and I bet you will buy it for your breakfast in the weekday. Then why we need to wait for it? Furthermore, the price tag of that croissant is around HK$ 12 each. So is it worth to buy it? For me, it’s a “Yes and No”. “Yes” as it’s worth as it tastes good; “No” as I didn’t want to line up so long and indirectly helped the shop for promotion.

Although the croissant has “AOC” (Concours du Meilleur Croissant au Beurre AOC Charantes-Poitou a.k.a The Best Butter Croissant Competition), is it really worth that price and wait for that long? It is your call.

Cheers!

Conclusion: You can go there and have a try, but one time is enough

85℃ @ 太子 - 咸的85℃? / Sea Salt Green Tea in 85c

85℃ @ 太子 - 咸的85℃?

路經太子荔枝角道見到85℃, 想吃台灣食物的心癮又走出來, 所以二話不說的走入去買有杯海岩綠茶.

之前在台北或香港飲海岩綠茶時, 都會感受到一種層次感, 先是有咸味,  然後有茶味, 最後就是甘香味, 但不知為何, 今次這杯就少了咸味, 中間都依然有茶味, 再飮到底時就只有甜味, 沒甘香味.

Sea Salt Green Tea

也許只是有一丁點失手, 才出現這情况. 希望下次再買海岩綠茶時, 水準可以有之前的好!

結論： E間舖可以一試，然後再試

Sea Salt Green Tea @ 85℃, Prince Edward

Have you even think of putting some sea salt in green tea? Actually this kind of drink was first being popular in Taiwan and then the shop (85℃) bought it to Hong Kong last year as to develop new market. The taste of this drink is very good and when you take first couple sips, you can taste the sea salt. And when you drink again and again, you can taste the green tea in the middle. So, are you interested to have a sip of Sea Salt Green Tea.

Although, this green tea tastes good, this time my cup was not that good. Unluckily I could not taste the sea salt in my first couple sips and I thought my drink was too sweet, too!

Anyway, I am willing to give them benefit of doubt and sure I will buy the Sea Salt Green Tea in 85℃ again as to see they have improved the quality or not.

Holly Brown @ 尖沙咀 - Let’s TANGO with Coffee and Gelato

Holly Brown @ 尖沙咀 – Let’s TANGO with Coffee and Gelato

禮拜日無嘢做, 就出尖沙咀行吓街, 行到 K-11 的Holly Brown 時, 被店裏面的香濃咖啡味吸引住, 走入去 order 左Holly Brown Tango (咖啡 + Gelato) 同 Rock on Vanilla (Gelato).

Holly Brown Tango 的Espresso好香好濃, 再配上雲尼拿Gelato, 成杯咖啡立即滑上加滑, 而且咖啡是熱的, 雲尼拿Gelato是凍的, 一凍一熱, 好”冰火”! 正!

Tango

再黎就係Rock on Vanilla Gelato, 材料有花生醬, 杏仁, 朱古力brownie 再炒雲尼拿Gelato。 因為Gelato是零空氣的低脂雪糕, 所以口感香滑實淨, 甜甜黏黏.

Rock on Vanilla Gelato

點都好, 咖啡加Gelato, 人生一大快事, 妙!

結論： E間舖可以一試，然後再試

Let’s TANGO with Coffee and Gelato @ K-11 Mall, TST  

What’s good to have a cup of coffee and gelato at Sunday afternoon? Today I passed by K-11 shopping mall in TST and got attracted by the smell of coffee from Holly Brown cafe. So I decided to buy a cup of TANGO and a scoop of Rock on Vanilla in there as to chill out.

First of all, TANGO is the Espresso mixed with vanilla gelato. The Espresso was so rich and when it mixed with vanilla gelato, the texture became so soft and smooth! Although coffee and gelato are two different things, but when they combine together, it just becomes a perfect match!

Tango

Rock on Vanilla Gelato

Then the Rock on Vanilla was the vanilla gelato came with peanut butter, almond and chocolate brownie. No doubt, the gelato was so good. When you eat it, you can feel different tastes in your mouth.  It is hard to find this kind of gelato in Italy and I guess this kind of innovative combination can only be found in Hong Kong. So, you should go there and have a try when you are in Hong Kong. 

Holly Brown café (link) has couple branches in Hong Kong, and there should be one in the busy commence and shopping areas. So, don’t miss it!
