Could be better at 滇品．米線

This review was bordering between a BAD and an OK but decided to give it an OK because it wasn't that bad.
I was captivated here because the picture of the rice showed delicious rice with lots of peas in it.

Rice with grilled pork:
When it came it was just plain rice.

Luckily there were peas buried underneath but the pork was not exciting.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chicken and Gastrodia elata soup:
I loved the strong chicken and herb taste but it was TOO SALTY!!!!!!

NICE stir fried beef ho fun at 尼斯餐廳

When I entered this restaurant, it reminded me of Czarina on Caine Road, and the interior was similar to Tai Ping Koon.

I was recommended this place by an Australian to try the stir fried beef flat noodles.
After reading the latest reviews, it appears that this place is famous for Chinese style Western dishes which looked quite delicious from the photos.

Anyway, I stuck with my decision and tried the noodles for tea, it came with Chinese milk tea which I won't comment because I don't like it anyway.

[b]stir fried beef flat noodles:[/b]

The noodles tasted good because the soy sauce was strong with a mushroom taste but it was slightly bitter.
Although it was not brilliant, it tastes better than most places which have a strange metallic oily taste which I refuse to eat.
I managed to finish it so I suppose it was quite good!

More choices at White Beard Fish n Chips

As I was going to Art Central, I stopped by for some snacks!

I was surprised to see new items on the menu and they even have paprika cocoa fish and chips and mushroom popcorn which means I have to go again to try it.


There were apple pies in the cabinet which looked like McDonalds one.

Sauces:

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Oysters:

Batter was light and the oysters were huge and juicy with a strong taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Sauce:

The oysters didn't really need sauce but I found some liquid filled pearls in the sauce which was interesting.
They would probably go well with the battered fish when the citrus liquid inside bursts to cut the grease of the battered fish.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Apple pie:

I tried it because I was curious if it was McDonald's apple pies and yes it tasted the same but the apple pie here is sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon.

Tea again at Owl Cafe

I have become fond of this place because the tea and desserts are great for $35.


This time they had brown rice jelly ( genmaicha ).

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Earl grey tea:

brown rice jelly:




The taste of brown rice was not strong but there was rice in it and you could also taste fragrant yuzu too.

2015 Turnip cake from Canton Room

At the Canton room, they have three types of puddings for CNY.

Scallop Chinese radish pudding:

Traditional CNY pudding:

Golden water chestnut pudding:

Anyway, I tried the scallop Chinese radish pudding.

This Chinese radish cake was loaded! There were so much huge dried shrimps and chunks of preserved sausages in it.

I loved this Chinese radish cake because the radish was chunky and crisp but not raw with sweetness.

Sweet treats at Bakery Cafe

Walked past and saw this new bakery so went in.
There were cupcakes and donuts.
I went for the strawberry jam donut.

The donut was dusted with powdered sugar but there was not much jam in the middle and it tasted like a pre-made donut.

Dreaming of Las Vegas at Little Vegas

I have always wanted to dine here because it is a themed restaurant.

There is a similar place I tried before called SF Veggies which is just like San Franciso.
Inside Las Vegas you are greated with Casino related displays, slot machines and roulettes.


I liked the wine glass with sweets but it would be good if it was filled it with local American sweets instead of Japanese sweets and International sweets.



The menu was designed just like a tabloid.

The variety of dishes on the menu was quite good and they had three types of ravioli but unfortunately the carrot and coriander is not served anymore because the locals are not brave enough to order it.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Dice chocolate:

A nice chocolately drink which tasted a bit like Tiramisu with a stong chocolate taste with a hint of coffee.
At the bottom it had square cubes of jelly which remind you of dice.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Vegas Morning:

Menu description:
Black truffle scrambled eggs, beef tenderloin, bacon, veal sausage, pork sausage, hash browns, roasted tomato, baked beans, mushroom, bagel

I loved the chewy bagel which was topped with fluffy scrambled eggs infused with truffle flavouring.
Both sausages tasted almost the same even though one was meant to be veal and the other was pork.
I ordered the Vegas morning because the menu says that it comes with tenderloin but when it came it was a huge beef patty and the texture was a bit dry and chewy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Fettuccine with beef in soya sauce:

Pasta choices were creative because they had tom yum pasta, green curry penne but I ended up choosing the fettuccine with beef in soya sauce.
The menu says Fried but I think they meant Stir fried pasta but anyway it was really good because it is an improved version of the Chinese stir fried flat noodles as it was not so oily but unfortunately the strands of fettuccine clumped together.

Green tea:

It was a bit too sweet.
