Golden Nutty Delights 2013 @ McCafe

I was excited when I saw the new Golden Nutty delights at McCafe because I love hazelnuts and the souffle coffee seemed the best because of the souffle top even though I do not drink coffee.

There are three drinks in that series which are all hot: Golden Nutty Tea (red tea, chocolate and hazelnut), Golden Nutty mocha (coffee, chocolate and hazelnut), and Golden Nutty souffle coffee (hazelnut coffee with a souffle top).

 

I chose the Golden Nutty Tea and the Golden Nutty souffle coffee because I wanted to try the souffle.

 

 

When it was done it came in a paper cup and I never said that I was not dining there, especially for a delicate drink with foam, why would I want it served in a paper cup!

Golden Nutty Tea:

 

The top of this drink was frothier than the souffle.
The froth was nice and sweet with a strong hazelnut taste.
The tea beneath it was not that sweet but was balanced with the sweetness of the froth.
However the drink was not hot enough.
Overall the taste was nice with hints of hazelnut, chocolate and tea!

Golden Nutty souffle coffee:

 

 

 

 

Compared to the tea, this drink was much hotter and it had steam coming off it.
The souffle top was really nice and the bubbles were fine and dense which was a pity that it was served in a paper cup with the lid on because half the souffle was gone.

The song of Yuen Long @ 爽爽麵店

Ever since I saw their interesting shop name I have always wanted to dine here.
The characters of the Chinese name looks like a curly L and a £ (pound sign)!

 

 

This joint is famous for pork chops and chicken in wine.

For the pork chops you can choose lean pork chops or the normal ones.
As for drinks they have Chrysanthemum and Lemon but since I do not like chrysanthemum I did not order any drinks as the rest were Chinese style drinks.

The restaurant was full, so I was led to another room nearby.
(It reminded me of dining at God's Kitchen in Tai Kok Tsui before they moved to the new shop.

 

In that room, all the food was served in plastic tubs and containers probably because it is private property so if any legal problem arises then they can say that it was a gathering and people brought the food there themselves.
After you have finished eating, you have to go back to the shop and pay because you cannot pay there.

Anyway, I ordered the chicken in wine with noodles.
I asked for the tossed noodles because I did not want the soup.

Chicken in wine with noodles:

 

 

When it came I transferred all the chicken to the plastic container and then put the noodles in the remaining wine so the noodles would soak up the wine.

 

The noodles were really nice and the wine flavour was at its max.
However the chicken and noodles were rather salty and on my next visit I will request for plain noodles because the oyster sauce that was on the noodles made it extra salty.
