[勝面] Sheng Mian from TW branches to HK

It seems that Sheng Mian is from Taiwan according to the media but photos of the food look very different.
The menu offers noodles and the usual Taiwanese fare.





I was curious of the Spicy noodles because photos showed that it looked like Laksa and Pork broth with Spicy oil over it so I ordered this item.
For noodles you get a choice of knife cut noodles, white noodles etc.
When it came, it looked like the other photos that people had here.





The beef slices were similar to the ones you get in Pho noodles, ie semi raw. You could see that some of the beef was visually dry without trying.
Although the beef could have been better the noodles were fantastic, it was more like Japanese ramen!

Also had plain rice with spicy tofu.
The rice was hard and clumped together that you could use chopsticks to pick up the rice in the bowl.





The star of the show was surprisingly the Taiwanese roti which fellow foodies said were too sweet.
Inside it was taro mash, thin layer of fried egg and sticky mochi.
As the taro mash was quite sweet, I scraped some away and the whole thing was so damn good because the roti tasted like mille feuille pastry filled with sticky mochi.





Unfortunately, the tea would have been good but it was sweetened. Most cold brews are not sweetened but for some bizarre reason they were sweetened here which I didn't expect or perhaps its MK!



Finished with the Grass Jelly dessert which was instaworthy but unfortunately it was canned grass jelly and you can even see the edge of the can.



Overall the Taiwanese roti was the best.
