$20 Indomie noodles with grass jelly drink

I ordered the indomie noodles here because it was fun seeing people have fun putting in the powder and condiments themselves.
The condiments are served separately saving time for the chef and letting the customers have the fun of adding the condiments in the noodles.

The noodles were hot when they were brought over, however because of the strong air conditioning I had to add the condiments swiftly before the noodles got cold.

 

Basically there are four sachets: chili sauce, thick sweet/bitter soy sauce, oil and some powder flavouring.

 

I should have added less powder because it was quite salty but overall the noodles tasted nice however these noodles are quite coarse and hard.

It was really good they supplied a pair of scissors to cut the sachets.

 

After finishing the noodles I had the grass jelly drink which was too sweet for my liking so I only ate the grass jelly cubes and the amount of grass jelly in the drink was quite generous.

 

Steamed dumplings with grass jelly drink @ 冰讚

 

 

 

Previously came here for dessert but now they have more options for lunch.
I was surprised to find out they have another joint near Brim 28.

Anyway they have extended their opening hours too.

The steamed dumplings looked good so I tried that, there are three types and I chose the seafood one.

 

The dumplings tasted really nice but they were steamed for too long because the dumpling skin broke everytime you picked it up and the fillings fell out.
The filling were really nice, it had scrambled egg and prawns and the filling was filled with so much juice due to the steaming.

There was a sachet of vinegar with ginger sauce for the dumplings too which made it more appetizing.

 

The dumplings came with a can of grass jelly drink which was good because it was not the boring Lemon Teas or HK beverages.
I found it too sweet but after diluting it the drink was really nice.

Tri-coloured grass jelly @ Chung Kee Dessert 松記糖水

Quite good to find another dessert place that is not so traditional with the sweet soups and red beans.

Ordered the tri-coloured grass jelly, a mix of clear, white and black, the clear ones are basically agar jelly, and the white ones have a slight almond banana taste, and the black or the original ones.
I left the black ones, because there was a slight sour taste in it.

Lemon water chestnut: never tried water chestnut with bits of egg, but this time gave it a try with lemon, all because of lemon, I was surprised it wasnt nastily sweet. The water chestnuts were there, giving it a crunchy note, however it could be improved because they can be peeled better instead of leaving the brown skin on it.
The lemon was not really strong, only the bitter rind taste, I think if real lemon juice was extracted and mixed it with it would taste more lemoney.

Glutinous rice and ice-cream, just the ususal taste, with the coldness and sweetness from the ice-cream.
