This place specializes in coffee but I actually came here for food.
Tried it during a weekday because weekends are impossible and they close early in the evenings so if you have to work then it is not possible to try it.
Here was what I had and the bill only came to $98, but then the most expensive ingredient that I had was probably the bacon and mushrooms.

Candy bacon:
This was bacon strips coated in maple syrup and sprinkled with black pepper.
It would have been great if it was British bacon because the one they used was a bit hard and different to the usual bacon.

Toast with caramelized apple:
This was quite nice but I would prefer cooking apples because these apples were not tart enough and it could have done without the butter when they cooked the apples.

Toast with garlic mushrooms
The mushroom toast was simple and good but there was too much garlic in it.

Sausage and chips at chip in
Havent been to Sai Kung for a while because it has some bloody serious annoying transport problems.
Once you get there, you can't leave.
Anyway, managed to travel into SK that day without any trouble so I had to have my favourite chips.
I was lucky that day because Chip In had a food stall at the Hebe market so they had some of my favourite pork sausages.
As usual the chips tasted great with a fluffy centre with a sweet aftertaste and the sausages were great with vinegar!!!
Apparently you can vote for them on some online poll which I havent figured how yet because Eggspectation is also on there too!! So get voting.

Finally tried the famous omelette
Went here because of the omelette, I managed to try this place because I was in the area to buy something.
The omelette is cooked with a stinky herb according to the Chinese menu, and in English it is called Cha-Om according to this travelling-foodies blog.
When it came, I couldn't smell anything abnormal so the herb probably gives off the smell when it is raw.
The only abnormal smell was the chili sauce because the fish sauce has gone smelly.
Anyway, the omelette was fluffy and delicious with lots of Cha-om but it was a bit too salty for my liking.

Chicken Tikka Pizza
Tulsi is one of the best places for curry, but this time I went for the pizza because their lunch sets are quite funky.
They had interesting things like butter chicken fusilli.

The pizza base was a naan bread which had a soft and chewy texture, on top it was topped with delicious melted cheese, green peppers and chicken tikka.

Hong Kong style Roast duck burrito
Saw on Cali-Mex's facebook that they were going to serve this Hong Kong style Roast duck burrito with whole USA Duck roasted to perfection sliced onto their homemade 12” tortilla served with Mexican rice, sliced cucumber, fine leek, fresh cabbage and a special fusion chipotle mayo hoisin sauce.
When I ordered I was asked them if they did a bowl version and they must have thought I wanted a bowl version which is why it was not a burrito.
The duck burrito bowl was good but the hoisin sauce in the mixture was not prominent enough and there was not enough sauce to give it that kick.
I felt that if there was more hoi sin sauce then it would have made it tastier because hoi sin sauce contains yellow beans which has that beanie kick to it that is similar to refried beans.
Maxim's Tiramisu cake slice
The Tiramisu cake slice from Maxim's was actually quite nice.
It was dusted with coffee powder and the cake in the middle was moist with delicious whipped cream layers.

Peking noodle joint in Sai Kung
Tried this new noodle joint in Sai Kung because I was craving for some spicy food again.
They specialize in two types of noodles: flat and round
The menu has Chinese and English.
Ordered the lamb in Sichuan peppercorn broth and chose the round noodles.
Anyway, next time I will choose the white pepper broth with the flat noodles.

Ordered the lamb in Sichuan peppercorn broth and chose the round noodles.
The presentation was a bit boring but the broth was extremely strong and had a strong numbing sensation.
I made the wrong choice choosing the round noodles because they were too chewy and firm and the broth was too salty to the point that it tasted bitter.Anyway, next time I will choose the white pepper broth with the flat noodles.
