(1) Fish Soup
(2)
I did not try this pasta myself but my friend told me she liked it and the quality was better than she expected. According to her description, the sauce was not too sour and the pasta was al dente. She liked the mussels as well due to the fact that they came without the shells. Again, this helped to illustrate what I meant by a Hong Kong / Taiwan cooking style because similar pasta dishes usually come without those mussels shells under this style.
(3) Pasta with Ox tail Stew
(4) Cafe Mocha & (5) Cappuccino
I guess good things never last. My friend ordered Cafe Mocha which accordingly to her was TOO sweet and I believed her. Why? She asked for some more skim milk to add into the drink in order to dilute the sweetness but it did not help. Then she added some water into the drink as well and still did not help. I then ask her to stop because the drink has turned into something not drinkable already with all those additions. As for my Cappuccino, it tasted more like Americano with excess amount of water ! The foam was alright, foamy (instead of creamy) and strong coffee flavor; but the coffee was very disappointing because it was just not the way I imagined it especially from TW Coffee !! (a coffee company !!)
Anyhow, I do have to give them credit on their services. There was a fly flying on top of our food and I waved my hand trying to divert it somehow. The lady staff saw my waving and immediately came over and told us that the fly must have came in while the door was opened. Then she went over to the entrance, opened the door and helped me to wave the fly towards to entrance. That's what I called good services !! Food quality is important but not the only factor to be considered when reviewing a restaurant. What this place lacked in food / coffee quality, it excelled in services and environment.
