Weekdays semi-lunch buffet @ BLT Steak

BLT Steak (尖沙咀)
Previously came here for lunch during the weekend which was good so came back on a weekday because it is cheaper.


After I ordered the duck confit salad croissant, the popovers were brought over.

Popovers:

The popovers were not as good as the first visit because they had not risen properly.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Duck confit salad croissant:

The duck was nice but the sauce was too creamy and made it sickly and the croissant was quite hard.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Salad:
For the salad section, there was more choice and they had butter lettuce.
The orange and chicory salad was really refreshing.

My last review on this place was negative because there were flies, and on this visit these flies were still there ( a month later ) and one stopped by my table for a photo.



Apart from the fly, the restaurant is quite nice.

Pop over to BLT Steak for a scrummy popover

Located right at the basement of LCX, this restaurant faces the Harbour, if it happens to be a clear day you can see right accross to the Hong Kong side, but highly unlikely in this heavily polluted air city.
Sometimes there is also a big cruiser blocking the view.

I mainly wanted to try this place because of the buffet style starters and the popovers.
Popovers are basically an American version of Yorkshire puddings.
The food here is brilliant but there are insects flying in the salad area and tables.

Steak and eggs:
Burnt and too tough
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Popovers:
Delicious!
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Spinach popover:
This was delicious but the creamed spinach could have been put aside because it made the popover soft.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Salad:
Various delicious salads and cheeses.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Desserts:
The panna cotta was really nice and creamy and I loved the generous vanilla seeds at the bottom.
