The King's breakfast @ Burger King

It is not often that I get a chance to have breakfast so I was greedy and ordered the set with an extra croissant and french toast.
There was so much choice!!

King's platter
The platter consists of round hash brown nuggets, tomato, cheese and ham omelette and a scone.
The hash brown nuggets were crispy with a slight soft centre. The tomato was grilled lightly so it just tasted like a raw tomato! As for the cheese and ham omelette, it had melted processed cheddar cheese in the middle with pieces of ham. The cheese was quite salty.
As for the scone it was quite dry.

Croissant with fish fillet and cheese
The croissant was not soft enough and it tasted like the cheap croissants with leathery skin.
The fish fillet was ok but the processed cheese in this croissant was also very salty.

French toast
The French toast did not have extra syrup to spread, but it was coated on the French toast making it sticky to handle.
The egg was coated very slightly on the bread hence the egg taste was not so strong.

Poshed up Tsui Wah Restaurant

Previously this used to be Uno-Mas and Piel de Toro downstairs but now TW has taken over !!!
Sad to see them go!

Anyway it really stands out on this side of Lockhart road especially being a Chinese cuisine amongst the pubs and international restaurants!!

Luckily their usual Chinese corporate appearance has been toned down with dark windows and dark theme to match the glamourity of Lockhart Road.

My only reason for dining here was just curiosity to see how they converted Uno-Mas into TW!!
Anyway, inside its much the same, the menu is the same which was dissappointing, I was hoping for some high end stuff like how Arome bakery has taken it to the next level with Arome bakery room in North point.
As the interior is slightly different to their other branches, they should have some exclusive dishes that are only served at this branch.

Since I have not visited TW in ages they now have this barcoded ordering system, not sure if it is new, but the amusing thing is that they still use a pen to write down your table number.
Now to the food, ordered the prawns with noodles.
The noodles came with a separate side of chili sauce, overall it tasted ok, the prawns were big and springy and the noodles tasted OK.
The soup accompanying the noodles was their renowned soup cooked with sharks bones.

McD's prosperity beef burger with twister fries 2012

Initially hesitated to try the prosperity burger because I thought it was just the same as the usual black pepper burger except the shape is different.

But anyway got the set because of the twister fries.
As I got the set mainly for the fries I didnt have any expectations for the burger, I just expected it to taste like the black pepper beef burger.
The twister fries were as good as before but not hot enough. However I was surprised the burger tasted nice.
The black pepper was not so strong this time and the sauce was sweeter than the black pepper version.
So overall this burger was nicer than expected because the black pepper taste did not overpower the rest of the burger.
However if you are a beef lover you will be disappointed because the beef taste is faint and the patty is very soft.

McD's Chinese New Year prosperity chicken burger

Previously tried the beef version which was quite nice, so tried the chicken.
The black pepper sauce in the chicken version was hotter than the beef and not so sweet.
It also saids that on the packaging. It was grilled chicken thigh so it was juicy and tender. I prefer crispy chicken patty instead of grilled chicken because it goes better with the lettuce.
The grilled chicken, black pepper sauce and lettuce together made the burger a bit soggy.
