SPD4459 [Nostalgia懷舊篇] 海安咖啡室 Hoi On Cafe - by Natalie

Yay~~Is Saturday again! 

This time i am going to show you a nostalgic tea house in Sheung Wan 

which called Hoi On Cafe.

Tea House is another Hong Kong style restaurant that you can't miss besides Dai Pai Dong.

Sheung Wan is an aging district in Hong Kong, we can easily find those nostalgic tea house in this area.

Let's go to the food part!

This is the door front of the restaurant~

 Someone may think this restaurant is too old that, it is not attractive at all. However, the food is very delicious. Not believe that? Please continue to read my article!

"No splitting" sign

"No splitting" is a traditional slogan in Hong Kong. This is because in the old time, people get used to smoke. Sometimes they would split in order to clear their throat, so restaurant put some sign to remind people not to split.

There are different kinds of Red bean Ice drink~

 If you want to have a special drink, try "Yuanyang Red Bean Ice Drink" (Top left). YenYang is a mixture of milk tea and coffee, which is  invented by Hong Kong people. Taste special and unique!

Toast with egg and beef~

 Delicious thick toast, cannot be explained by words! The beef egg is very smooth, and it smells good from the spring onion.

Hong Kong Style milk tea

 Another thing that you cannot miss is the milk tea. The ratio of milk and tea is perfect. For me, i love to order more milk! In these old style tea houses, you may request condensed milk in stead of evaporated milk.

Rocky Bun with butter

 My friend ordered this. She said the bun is just baked and together with the butter, it is so match and delicious. I didn't try because i afraid fat :P

SPD4459 [NightLife 夜蒲篇] ---蟹麵膳Crab Noodle by Frankco

又到星期四的夜蒲篇啦！

一大班朋友夜蒲唔想飲太多酒，其實可以去下一 D 小食店聚下都是不錯的選擇！

今次要介紹的是 在中環， 名叫蟹麵膳 Crab Noodle 的港式小食店。

點解要推介？

當然是因為夜蒲的我都是餵食貓啦！哈哈

真心夜蒲肚餓的你，可以試下下面推介的食物

    

蟹肉雲吞花菇蝦子撈麵 - 高質彈牙又香口!

蝦子分量非常多，滿佈整個麵面，但可以先將蝦子炒得更香口。撈麵彈牙得很！有油香又不會太濕，是非常高質素既撈麵！另外花菇作配菜都非常爽滑香甜，又夠大隻，讚！

   

  好香蟹味雲吞又大大粒:D

 不得不提佢地既蟹湯，名副其實非常有蟹味！輕嚐一口已經感受到蟹既無比鮮甜，相信一定係用蟹殼淆湯而且無味精 
另外蟹肉雲吞雖然蟹肉不太突出，但勝在粒粒都夠足料飽滿，蝦肉豬肉彈牙！

$46仲有野飲呢到係中環黎架抵到不得了！！ 

    蟹肉波菜汁全蛋面 - yummy :D

個面一上枱就已經好eye catching,墨綠既菠菜汁(我覺得叫蓉好D,因為似係攪碎, 粉粉地) 連埋兩塊薄片大腐皮同埋橙色的蟹籽,鮮黃的粟米仲有一絲絲既蟹肉已經very attractive!

行過記得試一試

SPD4459 [Dessert甜品篇] Leisure Time Crêpe 優閑甜品班戟店 - by Jun (SPD4459)

Previously, I introduced Sweet Classroom甜品堂. Just as Sweet Classroom, Leisure Time Crêpe 優閑甜品班戟店 is a tiny dessert store. It has only 8 seats inside. However, it isn't directly proportional to its desserts' taste and quality. Leisure Time Crêpe 優閑甜品班戟店 is in the top 10 of the best dessert stores on OpenRice recently. And now, sometimes it is filled with crowds of people who want to try its delicious desserts.

Leisure Time Crêpe 優閑甜品班戟店 is certainly a pleasant place to have your relaxing dessert moments since the whole shop is filled up with the smell of crepes which is all from the food ingredients, not any perfume. 

The shop is also decorated with warm colours so that everyone can enjoy the greatest feeling of comfort while having desserts.

The chef looks professional and pays attention to hygiene since she is wearing gloves while making desserts.

Leisure Time Crêpe 優閑甜品班戟店 is well-known for its crepe for sure just like its name. Here is the menu. You can see that there're different flavors of crepe and the prices are reasonable. :)

This is Banana and Hazelnut Ice Cream with Caramel Sauce. I love the ice cream because I like hazelnut and the sauce is delicious.  

Salty flavors crepes are also available. 

This is Lettuce, Tomato & Sweet Corn Crepe. I didn't eat it because I don't like eating sweet corn. It was eaten by my friend, and she said the flavor was good because it was like salad. So, I think who love salad will also love this crepe!

Other than crepes, it has other types of desserts such as brownies...

and cheese cake... It is a rich cheese cake, I love it!

Special drinks are also worth trying...

such as Purple Smoothie (It's also user's hot pick:D). Purple Smoothie contains 3 flavors including orange, blueberry, and banana. It is fresh and tastes like orange flavor is more notable.

Of course, there're still a lots to try, and it is not easy to run a tiny dessert shop in HK, so would you like to have a try and support it personally?

SPD4459 [Cafe休閒篇] 茶。家 teakha - by Hazel

很喜歡上環這一帶，給人一種遠離人間煙火，與世無爭的感覺。
走到累了，就到小小的咖啡店，吃點蛋糕，飲杯咖啡，人生真寫意。
I really love Sheung Wan, it gives me a peaceful feeling.
when feeling tired, go to a small coffee shop, eat a piece of cake, drink a cup of coffee, life is really enjoyable.




太平山街一帶是上環的後花園，很寧靜的地方，有好幾間特色的店舖，是一條還能感受特色的街道。

Tai Ping Shan Street is a very quiet place. There are several specialty shops and full of characteristic.

今次就黎茶。家，掛著可愛的茶壺招牌。茶家就在太平山街的一個轉角處，讓慕名前來的人能暫時躲到一個角落，享受片刻的寧靜。
teakha located on a corner at Tai Ping Shan Street, so that people can come here temporarily hid in a corner, enjoy a moment of tranquility.

                                                             
外觀十分簡潔！
Simple!

店鋪內沒有豪華裝
修，以綠色植物和一些器皿作點綴，舒服而又溫馨。

No luxurious
decoration, use green plants and utensils for decoration. It is comfortable and warm.

茶。家的主打當然是茶啦！這裡的茶類飲品都有數十種，此外也提供小量特色蛋糕。
teakha is mainly sells tea! In addition to tea drink, also provide some cake.


Recommend:

Keemun Rose Tea 祁門玫瑰花茶

Sea Salt Yin Yang; Green Tea Cheesecake

               海鹽鴛鴦；綠茶芝士蛋糕

茶味好濃郁, 玫瑰味都好出, 值得一試 !
The tea and rose flavor is strong. It is worth to try!












不像茶餐廳的鴛鴦，加了海鹽令它變得特別。
The Yin Yang is not like any other Yin Yang in Cha Chann Teng. What makes it different is the sea salt.

綠茶芝士蛋糕不像紐約芝士蛋糕那麼硬，而是很鬆軟的。芝士的味道稍微勝過抹茶，但都不會太重。
The cheesecake not hard like a New York Cheesecake. It is more creamy.The taste of cheese slightly outweighs Matcha, but not too heavy. 

Masala Chai印度香料奶茶

香料的味道比茶味出，比港式奶茶甜。      
The taste of spices slightly outweighs tea. And more sweet than the Hong Kong-style milk tea.

SPD4459 [Cafe] Cafe Deadend - by Hazel

Are you looking for a place for relax? 

Now, i'd like to recommend a coffee shop to you.

Cafe Deadend

As its name suggests Deadend is located at the end of Po Hing Fong  in Sheung Wan. 
顧名思義--deadend,死胡同
It having outdoor area with a tree of purple flowers in front of white wall. 

There is peacefulness, as if this place is its own world with a particularly slow pace; almost a still image. this atmosphere is ideal for chilling with a couple of girlfriends in the afternoon. loved the simple combination of the green shrubs, the yellowish lighting, the white walls and the black windows/doors. 

Entering to the cafe inside, the place is not too big with a few of tables and a long table bar.
A open kitchen decoration where you all can see how chefs do cooking, washing and making drinks. 





Cappuccino
The latte art was very nice, a beautiful heart. the foam was smooth and thick, but the amount of it was not quite enough. the coffee beneath was good, strong enough to not be covered up by the milk. the size of the drink however was rather small.







Dirty
Espresso with cold milk. Interesting, right?! Usually coffee like latte is added hot milk & pull off with the latte art on top. But when the cold milk hits the hot espresso, its looks really “dirty”…literally! The uneven color of the cold milk with the espresso looks interesting! The taste of it was alright, since cold milk was added, it’s either very hot or cold.







In addition to  coffee, but also provide sandwiches, bread, salad and apple pies.
