Soft scrambled egg curry @ Izumi Curry

When they had their first restaurant at Tsim Sha Tsui I never noticed it on OpenRice because the eggs at that branch did not look so good, but after seeing the photos of food from this place, their eggs looked really nice.
I just assumed the Japanese style eggs would be the omelette type which are tasteless.

Anyway I just came here for the egg so if the curry was good then it would be a bonus.

I also wanted to try the scotch egg which I will try next time, the only big regret was not ordering extra cheese because it looked like melted chedder cheese and not tasteless mozarella cheese.

Tried two curries: Beef curry and Soft scrambled egg curry.

As this place has just newly opened the Suntory brand oolong tea was complimentary.

 

The style is similar to the usual Japanese restaurant where the cutlery and tissues are contained in a small tray, however there was only one piece of tissue between two people (for the wet tissues there was two).

 

A glass of water was provided.

The ceiling was nice and high with nice decor.

Beef curry:

 

The portion was quite small, but the curry sauce was nicer than the one for the soft scrambled egg which had a darker colour and tasted spicier.

Soft scrambled egg curry

 

The curry sauce was disappointing because it did not taste as good as CoCo Ichibanya which is less expensive.
The staff did not offer the level of spicyness of the curry which seems to be an option from the menu.
The curry was definately different to the one used in the beef curry because the beef one was sweeter.
But since I came just for the egg, the egg was what I expected but slightly bland and there was no salt on the table to give it taste.
I really regretted not ordered the one with cheese because it might have been a nice combination.

Scrambled egg with BBQ roast pork @ 頌興餐廳小廚

Scrambled eggs with Chinese roast pork cannot go wrong.

When it arrived it looked visually delicious, but the egg was strangely dry.

Other than that the roast pork and soy sauce tasted nice together.
There were lots of spring onions and onions in the scrambled egg which made it not so boring.

 

Scrambled eggs and fried vietnamese sausage @ 越旺 pho' 26

I ordered the set which consists of instant noodles with beef, scrambled eggs and fried vietnamese sausage.

The noodles came first, and I started to eat the noodles before it got too soft, it was just right, and fully flavoured by its soup.
As a westerner, I found the metal chopsticks rather useless as the noodles kept slipping.

Anyway the soup base was very potently strong of herbs, basil leaves, onions etc, but you could also taste the beef broth too.

Then the side dish of scrambled eggs and vietnamese sausage came, the scrambled eggs tasted Ok, and this was my first time trying fried vietnamese sausage, which was ok taste wise.

I would really like to try their breakfast, the white mushrooms and instant noodles.

LKYCS's last christmas @ 樂香園咖啡室

Heard it was shutting down soon from Chan Jan, so decided to pay a visit to this Chinese style cafe, a place I don't usually set foot in. The calendar at Lok Heung Yuen signifies the cafes age, it is one of those manual old date boards.

Before going, I checked its reviews, and saw that it was famous for Oyster cakes and tomato cakes. I was a bit puzzled because not many Chinese cafés offer them; all was answered when I got there, because it is a Chiu Chow styled café.

Apart from the fried cakes, I was recommend the chicken pie by Chan Jan. Before ordering it, I really did not know what to expect of a Chinese pie, never tried a Chinese pie before, ie would it look like an English pie? What would be inside it?

Anyway, I ordered the chicken pie, scrambled eggs with prawn and rice, stir fried black bean sauce clams and the oyster cake too. The tomato cake the one I most wanted to try was not available that day.

The chicken pie turned out looking like a normal pie, with a sweet crunchy short crust pastry, and chicken inside.
Then I had the scrambled eggs, the best I have eaten so far, just like Australian Milk co, the egg has a yolk like layer on top of it, just like a half cooked egg, and tasty spring onions mixed in it.

As for the evening snacks, they were ok; the oyster cake was a bit greasy, would have been perfect if I could have tried the tomato cake too, but that’s just life!

 

 

 

Scrambled eggs with truffle @ Fairwood

Made an effort to get up for breakfast, luckily the truffle and egg has been a popular pick for the locals, so it has been on the Ala Carte for a while.

I really did not expect anything for the truffle to taste like the real thing, but just wanted to give it a try. The real truffle is very expensive, so I do not expect Fairwood to offer the expensive stuff, same as Pizzahut, so it seems there is a low grade version or truffle essence or oil is used for the cheaper end of the market.

Anyway, ordered the set with chicken steak and gravy, toast and freshly grounded coffee.
The coffee had lovely white froth covering it. I do not drink coffee, but that coffee was good, no sour taste to it, and the milk was just right. The chicken was also good, the skin was crispy.
Then the egg was just scrambled with finely chopped mushrooms on the top mimicking the truffle, with truffle oil on top.
For people who have not experienced truffle before, there is a slight hint of truffle to it, but for experienced trufflers, it is not that pungent.

Scrambled egg's for Islanders @ 華星冰室 Capital Café

So glad there is joint here serving scrambled eggs just like Australian Dairy company in Jordan.
I am sure there must be other places that do scrambled eggs just like that, however due to location and publicity, people may not know about them.

The joint here is mainly black and white in decoration, and maybe most of the furnishing and tiles are new, it felt so surreal, almost like a set from a film studio.
The uniform worn by the staff was white and new, the whole experence sitting there was everything was sharply contrasted.

Anyway back to the food, the menu is slightly clearer than ADC, they even have Halal beef too.
The staff were not pushy for us to order the food quickly, and gave us plenty of time to decide on what drinks to order.
One of the staff was extremely helpful, shifting the plates and collecting the plates to make space etc.

I was quite surprised the macaroni cooled down quite quickly, I assumed after I ate my scrambled eggs, it would still be hot.
The scrambled eggs had that consistent delicate texture, slightly gel form, it was not salty and complemented well with the ham.
The toast was thick cut and nicely buttered with salted butter.
As for the macaroni, it is just a filler like my friend said, when I was introduced to ADC.
