Indeed It's a Tuck Shop tucked neatly behind Hennessey Rd

After I finished dining, I noticed this shop accross the road, it stood out from the rest of the places on this grey street. Anyway, there was bright lights above the name so I could only see "?UCK SHOP"
I saw that from a view in a 10' o Clock direction from my left.
Then when I crossed the road I realised it was TUCK SHOP.

I love Tuck Shops in UK because you can get flying saucers and sherbet fountains.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The one here sold Japanese canned drinks, sweets, crisps and on the corner they have hotdogs, popcorn and they sell coffee and smoothies too. As I just had dinner I decided to get a hotdog without the bun.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Johnsonville sausage
The hotdogs they use are by Johnsonville and it was grilled and served with Mustard.
It was not as hot as I'd thought it would be but since I was in a hurry it made it easier for me to finish it off and it just tasted like the usual hotdogs.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I wished I got popcorn instead because it looked good too and it seems to be coated in caramel or chocolate because it was dark and glistening. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Weird food Chinese style @ 知己咖啡站 Friends Cafe

If you’re a Hong Konger then you’ll probably be happy with the food served here, they do pasta and rice with the sauce that you want, ie curry, chicken a king etc.

The food is mainly chinese style, trying to be western with the soup, however the soup is so typically Chinese especially the Pea soup, they put cervelat sausage in it, which is such a typical chinese filler ingredient.

See the picture below with big pieces of cervelat sausage in the soup!

Anyway the set costs $28 which is the usual local price for food.

However being in borderline between admiralty and wan chai, I was slightly disappointed with their furnishings, it seems rather shabby, almost like those little joints you would find in the industrial areas such as Kwun tong, kwai hing etc.

Tomato broth instant noodles @ Yoshinoya

Most of the items on the Yoshinoya menu are beef, however tomato broth noodles were new on the menu for breakfast.

There was a choice of beef or chicken, which both include a frankfurter as well.

I thought the scrambled eggs was included in the set, but you need to pay extra for it.

The noodles was served in tomato broth, topped with sweetcorn and tomato puree on top and a boiled frankfurter.
The chicken was served separately in a bowl.
I felt the portion size was quite small for the chicken because there were only three pieces, but it did not taste that nice. Anyway the noodles were too soft.

The tomato broth was made from tomato puree and not that sour and it tasted very bland.
The frankfurter was the gritty type and too salty for my liking.

As for the scrambled eggs, it tastes the best, however it was strange there was sweetcorn in it,
The tomato broth noodles is also available for afternoon tea, however the frankfurters are replaced by crab meat.
