Freezing cold @ Ho Yin Seafood Restaurant

As well as the freezing cold air conditioning, it was noisy and the food was lousy.
Sat down and the air conditioning was about 21.5 degrees C as measured on my digital UV and temperature meter.
Then it slowly dropped to 21.0 degrees.

++++++++++++++++++++++++
Chicken
The chicken was not fresh and there was a rancid oil taste.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Prawns on toast
The toast was so thick and the oil was unfresh.
There was chinese salad cream as dipping sauce, not the usual sauces you get in the UK.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Prawn dumplings & Crystal dumplings
Chewy and elastic
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Steamed bun
Too sweet!
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Rice rolls from the table next to me
They must have been disgusting as they were there for an hour untouched.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cute names
Mandarin duck crystal package
Food crops dessert
Food crops dessert/Mandarin duck crystl package

Poached lettuce but in Chinese it said Blanched squid
spot the contradiction! lettuce = squid
spot the contradiction! lettuce = squid

Wrongly translated : onsen tamago - quail eggs !

Matcha noodles with hot spring egg ( 溫泉蛋 ) and what eggs do we have in the picture here???

Quails eggs!!!

If the quail eggs were cooked like hot spring eggs I think they would be really cute, mini hot spring eggs!!!

Super Super Cold Air Conditioning @ 譽居

Overall the food here is over priced and you need to pay a 10% service charge as well as a tea charge per person.
The air conditioning was too cold that it gives you headaches!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Red bean curd pork knuckles with rice
Very bland.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Dried shrimps and spring onion rice rolls
Overall these were ok, but not smooth enough.
They were not too oily.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Congee wtih crab
The congee was appauling and there was so many pieces of tiny crab shells in it.
The odd crab shell here and there is expected but not in every mouthful!
I have had crab congee else where and it is not as bad as this and the crab was not fresh.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Interesting chopsticks
The tips of the chopsticks are frosted.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Great translation
Noodles with shrimps! I think they mean shrimp roe.
