Naan Tuna Mayo @ MOS Burger

I found it quite interesting that MOS Burger was offering naans topped with cheese just like a pizza so I went there and tried it.

There were three flavours: seafood, pizza and cheese and tuna.
Only cheese and tuna was available that day and after trying it, I think that would have been the best flavour anyway.
The appearance of the naan reminded me of bicycle saddle seat.
Usually I do not like Pizzas with thick bases but because it was naan bread it was much nicer because it was nice and soft.
Also the cheese was just right and the tomato sauce and tuna tasted strong but each taste was distinct.
In addition there was caraway seeds in it which really enhanced the overall taste.

Smart enough to be Smart King?

Previously this place used to Roast owned by a star studded couple.
Anyway now it is Smart King which also serves Fried chicken and roast chicken.
They do not serve burritos. I really miss those Burritos at Roast.

The current machinery and recipe is probably the same as before so I tried the Fried chicken.
It costs $35 for 3 which is cheaper than KFC.
The chicken was not overly oily, but I prefer the chicken before served by Roast because there was caraway seeds on it.
The chicken coating was crispy and the chicken was juicy and flavoured, as with all Fried chicken there is a standard dose of MSG in it.

Cuttlefish burger @ Toppings

The cuttlefish patty is also hand made by them too. Inside the cuttlefish patty, it contained bits of sweetcorn, and to my amazement I found some caraway seeds that gave it some texture and spice to it.

Everything is the same as before, you can choose the toppings and sauce yourself.

Still the same good old staff.

Better and better roast @ Roast Sai Kung Takeaway

On my last visit, I felt that this shop was in its teething stages, since then it has improved.
The rude waitress is not there anymore and you are served by Star studded crew which I shall explain later.

There is more items on the menu that were not previously there such as the fried chicken, burritos, quesadilla, kebabs and burgers.
I ordered a lamb kebab, fried chicken, and roast chicken.
The fried chicken was good because there were two versions spicy and non spicy.

It was also interesting that they had a beverage called Halo Halo which is Flipino!
It would be good if they also offered fries with chicken salt that is served in Australia, because one of the owners is also from Oz.

I really liked the aluminium boxes that they used to serve the food, the exact same ones used in the English takeaways.
On my previous visit it was the white CFC boxes.

Roast chicken:
This was very spicy, it was like chicken roasted and then dipped in chili oil and grilled.
The texture of the chicken was so juicy, and it has definately improved since my last visit.
On my last visit, the skin was ripped and falling off, this time it was intact and grease free!
Interestingly on the chicken it had grill marks on it resembling the alphabet, the one on the drummette resembles an "N" and the one of the thigh resembles an "O".
So when it was served together it looked like the word "NO"!
NO ? ! ?
NO ? ! ?
 
Fried chicken:
I was expecting just ordinary fried chicken, but it was amazing, it is a delicious version of the fried chicken served at the Green Waffle in Central.
The difference is that the one here has taste!!
It was loaded with spices such as caraway seeds which you could visually see, the chicken was meaty and juicy.
It is close to the divine ones I had at PFC in London.

Spicy fried chicken:
The spicy version was also good too, same as the fried chicken, also big and juicy, both the coating was light.
However this one was spicy but not as spicy as the grilled chicken, it had cumin powder on it, which really made it taste nice.

Lamb Kebab:
It is not the English kebab I was expecting served in pita bread, but tasted better than the Hongkie ones, there was less sauce dripping from the kebab but it was still flavourful.
The lamb was thinly sliced and accompanied by sweet purple onions with spices too.

Price: slightly more expensive than your average fast food joint but the drinks are fairly priced at $6 per can unlike other places where they charge you $15-$20 per can, and there is a convenience store in close range.
English menu: yes, and they speak English too!
Service: very friendly
Yummy factor: very
MSG levels: did feel thristy afterwards

Anyway just for fun, the staff studded couple (owners) are from the filming industry, lets hope to see more of their productions.
