New blueberry and yogurt smoothie @ Hui Lau Shan

There were two yoghurt smoothes: blueberry or mango and raspberry.
I wish it were blueberry and raspberry rather than mango and raspberry.

 

At this branch, they also have lunch sets such as noodles and curry with rice.

Blueberry yoghurt smoothie

 

Anyway I ordered the smoothie without sugar because I had a feeling the yoghurt would be sweet.
When it was ready it looked exactly like the product shot topped with three blueberries on top.
Luckily I asked for it unsweetened because it was still sweet because of the yogurt.
Overall it was a really nice drink and the blueberry taste was not artificial.

Came back for the set lunch because not all the branches do set lunches.
All the set lunches come with a choice of three drinks: mango and coconut milk, coconut milk or watermelon juice, so if you are a fan of HLS drinks then this deal is not bad for $31 as you get the drink which normally costs around $2X so you are just paying $1X for the food and you get a delicious dessert as well.

For the food you can choose noodles or rice to go with satay beef or marinated chicken leg in soy sauce or mixed curry.
For the dessert you get to choose iced mango cake or cookie iced cake which is just an icecream cake topped with bread crumbs.
Anyway I chose the chicken leg with rice, coconut milk and the cookie iced cake.
When it came the hot food was wrapped in clingfilm as well because the lid to the chicken was too big.

chicken leg with rice

 

Although the chicken was not fresh the chicken meat was tender.
As expected it was pre-cooked chicken and reheated just like their other items such as the fishballs and squid.
The soy sauce was generous but it just tasted sweet.

 

The rice was too soft and mushy.

coconut milk

 

I did not like the set drinks but chose this for the sake of choosing it.
The drink was a bit sickly but the sweetness was just right.

cookie iced cake

 

The cake was delicious, it was thick frozen chocolate cream with pieces of soft cookie bits in it.
To be honest it was icecream with cookie crumbs on top.

Blueberry smoothie and spanish twirls @ Juice bar

Originally wanted to order the strawberry smoothie, but since it was sold out, I tried the blueberry one given by the staff. I found it very syrupy so I ordered one without any sugar at all. But for $20 it can be an option as a thirst quencher.

The smoothie is rather thin in consistency compared with the normal ones. Not as thick as it should be. Without the sugar, the yoghurt can be tasted. The colour of the smoothie was quite purple as real blueberries were put in, however they are frozen ones.

I was also given a box of spanish twirls (churros sprinkled with icing sugar. I didnt like it very much, but then i didnt like it when i was given some to try along while ago.
Firstly it was too sweet, and secondly, u can taste that the oil hasnt been changed and they were so rancid..

Raspberry chocolate smoothie and Earl grey and taro cake @ VERO

Since my last visit in February, this place has even more amazing variety.

The cake selection is very appealing which reminds me of Cha Ke Li, chocolate infused with various chinese teas.

The cake that caught my attention was the earl grey with taro, earl grey is a tea that I drink, and taro a gorgeous delicate flavour, and the two combined, absolutely delicious.

The cake was light and smooth, and full of earl grey flavour, the taro cream was hidden in between the chocolate cream.
The taro was like cream, very light and the taste of taro oozes out.

As for the chocolate raspberry smoothie, I really liked the sourness of the raspberry.
The smoothie was a watery cocoa based texture, which matched well with the raspberry, because of its natural berry sourness. There were bits of raspberry pips in it too, and the cream was topped with dried raspberry.
