Toast with honey and whipped cream @ Hero

After my first visit to the Sheung Wan branch of Hero I have been craving for another visit.

I have been to Central about four times attempting to dine here but I could not find it because it is actually located on Wellington street and not Lynhurst terrace.

 

 

 

I liked this branch because it had a fun and hip atmosphere compared to the Shenug Wan Branch, the SW branch has a more serious atmosphere for entrepreneurs and people wearing suits, whereas this branch is run by ABCs and caucasians.

I ordered the toast with whipped cream and honey with an iced coffee.

Toast with honey and whipped cream:
They served the honey separate because I requested it separate so that I could control the sweetness myself.

 

The toast was thicker than I imagined and it was cut into four pretty square cubes each with cream on top.

 

It looked slightly different to the product shot which was not cut into four pieces but the way they served it looked nice.

 

 

I did not use the honey because the cream was sweet and the crispy toast tasted really nice with the airy light whipped cream.

Iced coffee:

 

The coffee tasted nice but it was too milky for my liking.

Sticky toffee pudding @ Ocio

Before this place opened, there was a branch at Mong Kok which purely did waffles, however there was no dine in area so I never went there.

Although this place is for famous for Waffles, I came here for the sticky toffee pudding dessert which was my favourite at school served with hot custard.

Sticky toffee pudding:
Sticky toffee pudding is a British steamed dessert consisting of a very moist sponge cake, made with finely chopped dates or prunes, covered in a toffee sauce and often served with a vanilla custard or vanilla ice-cream. A modern British ‘classic’, alongside Jam Roly-Poly and Spotted Dick puddings.
==============================
I requested for the sticky toffee pudding to be served with cream instead of ice-cream because the pudding is quite sweet itself and I did not want to have ice-cream making it even sweeter.

 

Some Toffee puddings are plain moist sponge cakes covered in toffee sauce and some toffee puddings are made with finely chopped dates or prunes.
I prefer the ones without dates or prunes available in the canned version from Heinz.
Anyway when it came, the dessert was nice and hot and the smell of the cream on top as a result of the hot sponge was delicious.

 

The version of the sticky toffee pudding here had dates in it, but they tasted ok and there was toffee sauce on the side of the pudding.
The sticky toffee pudding was really sweet but that was expected.

All was well and they even provided a glass of water which was essential especially when you are having sweet stuff, however I had to request another spoon because there was some stains on it.
