Chili pomodoro sauce x Pineapple punch @ McDs

The new chili pomodoro sauce for the nuggets was launched so went there to try it.

This year the sauces are better, at least there are two that are not repeats: Chili pomodoro and BBQ chipotle.

Tried the pomodoro sauce and the new pineapple punch drink.
This is a negative review because of the chicken nuggets which I shall explain later.

Chili pomodoro sauce

I really loved this sauce and it was slightly spicy, there was herbs and onions in it as well although it is not listed on the ingredients list.
I can't wait until the chipotle one comes out!

Chicken nuggets

First I thought they were over done because they looked so dark, but after pressing them on tissue I realised it was old oil that made the nuggets dark.
You can see how old the oil is by the colour of the oil against the white tissue!
If it was fresh oil it should have been a lighter colour.

old orange oil

The taste of the chicken nuggetts were not that pleasant so I had to dip more sauce to balance out that rancid taste.

Pineapple punch

The pineapple taste was rather artificial.

Hot soy green tea

I have never tried the hot version of this drink so tried it.
I was really impressed because when you drink it, the foam and the soy tea gets mixed together and it makes the drink silky with fine bubbly foam.
Because it was hot the taste of soy milk was faint but the green tea was stronger.
However it was slightly too sweet!

The crouching Kitteness of TinHa Village

 

 

This restaurant is easy to locate if you know where the hospital is!

However if you approach the village from the hospital/roundabout end it is locked and it looks scary.

But anyway, walk along that road and you will see an MTR sign pointing to the footbridge and that is where it is located.
When I entered the village, there was a dog which was scary because the village ones are usually fierce.
I walked slowly and cautiously but luckily this one just laid there!

Oh dear! A dog!

 

hope it dosnt bite!

 

It even looked to the camera for a picture!

Close up!!

 

After passing the dog, and stepping in this restaurant, I was greeted by this woman with such a warm smile!
Initally I thought it was Kitty, but it was not her.
Although she had that sales smile it was not that irritating, but later her actions proved to be salesy.

I came here especially for the noodles in sesame sauce which is not alway available, so I asked her if it was available today and she said it was available, so I said I would like to order that, she imediately passed the order to the kitchen. She felt that I was going to leave if I couldnt find anything else on the menu that I wanted, but there were two other dishes I was going to order as well.
There was also steamed flower crab in HuaDiao which I wanted to try but could not find on the menu.
Finally found the other two items on the menu and ordered it.

Noodles in sesame sauce (crystal noodles)

 

This is not always available and I could not find it on the menu.
Although it looks really heavy, the taste and texture was so light.
This dish was bliss, I do not like sweet food but I liked it because of the sweetness.
The noodles were made from the meat of young coconut that is scraped out carefully so that it is in noodle form and mixed with delicious sesame sauce with the refreshing balance of tomato pieces.

Squid patty with vegetables

 

 

The Chinese name for this was interesting because you wouldnt know it is a patty unless you have read the reviews.
The patty texture was so soft and light and the coating was fried just right.
The sauce was a bit too strong but still nice.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Vegetables in soup with dried prawns

 

This dish was lovely and healthy with lots of vegetables and generous soup that had no MSG!!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Rice
I didnt know the cost per bowl but the rice was slightly yellow.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
After the food was finished, this was the first time I felt she was salesy as she told me the egg white dessert was really good and asked me to try, but when I asked if it was complimentary, she didnt answer which was quite funny, but overall the food and service was ok.

The air conditioning was annoying, it was too cold and cooled the food too fast.

Curry and dumplings @ Ginza Nichome Curry

Ordered the curry with dumplings, the rice and curry always taste the same because it is pre-made, however the dumplings were not crispy today and soggy.
The pork inside had bits of soft bones and fat.
