Saint Honore's Crispy chocolate roll

I was intending to get the fruit roll but they didn't have it so I got this new Crispy chocolate roll which was big and cheap costing $34!!
It seems that the rolls are inconsistent because the amount of cream is different in every roll.
The one I got had too much cream in it.

The roll was really good because it was soft and chocolately but the jelly tasted weird because it was sour and didn't quite match the taste.

The taro cake was also too sweet but hope to see them come up with a taro roll or pandan roll.

Uji Matcha series at Arome Bakery

Arome Bakery has launched a new Uji Matcha series and the cake looks like a woven green basket!

Anyway I tried the bun which could have tasted better because it tasted like raw dough and it was rather sweet.
The bean paste in between the bun had a starchy texture and was quite nice.

My second visit to Seafood Thai

When it comes to seafood, Sai Kung springs into mind but there are actually lots of other places that have great seafood such as Tuen Mun and Lei Yue Mun.

This time we ventured into Tuen Mun's again for Seafood Thai 泰海鮮.

蒜蓉粉絲蒸元貝‏。Steamed scallops with garlic and glass vermicelli

As well as the lobster and cheese, the steamed scallops were really nice because they were fresh and springy with a sweet garlic taste from the finely chopped garlic.

I purposely ate the glass vermicelli last so that it would absorb the scallop and garlic flavours.

Yummy!

Back at Boomshack

Since my last visit, there are so many new items on the menu and the existing items have improved.

We came in a big group so we shared.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Chips and Salsa:

These were addictive and moreish with the tasty salsa, guacamole and sour cream dips.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Fajitas:

This is a new item with a colourful 7 layered dip made with refried beans, guacamole, cheese, salsa and olives.



The beef was juicy and delicious with the lime wedges that were given.


★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Beet Fries:

The beet fries are coated in cornstarch flour which gives them a lovely crispy coating while the beetroot is kept juicy and moist.
They were definitely addictive!!
But be warned cooked beets will change the colour of your urine and faeces, so don't be shocked!
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Tater Tots:

These were crispy mashed potato nuggets which had a nice crunchy and cheesy taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Chicken Waffle:

This is an improved version of the waffles I had before because the waffle is different and it had a nice sweet and savoury balance.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
King Kong:

I liked this burger because it had spam in it.

Surprisingly good at Congress Plus

I have always wanted to try this place because my friend LLWL who loves to eat and does not post publicly on social media said this place was good.

Prices are about $6xx per person with further discounts when more people dine with you.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
The buffet area was spacious and there was a wide range of cuisines ranging from Chinese, Okinawan, Seafood, Desserts.
Cold cuts:


It was impressive they had blood sausage as well.


Japanese crab congee


Grilled beef




Chinese delicacies of fish maw and tendons.


Chinese roast


Puff pastry seafood cup


Indian tikka roll


Mixed grill

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
I basically couldn't wait to eat so I started on my favourite salad which had seagrapes in a refreshing dressing.

The baby sardines in grated radish was a nice appetizer in a delicious vinegar sauce and the crab congee was light and delicious.


I tried the soybean salad which was sweet with kelp mixed into it.


★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Next we had seafood which was fresh and my favourite was the tuna.



★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
In the Chinese selection my favourite was the fish maw and tendons which were soft in rich gravy.



The retro skewer has been modernized into a healthy one which does not contain a slice of pork fat, I tried it and I loved the juicy melon and silky chicken liver.


★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
For soup I had the delicious seafood soup which is made to order and it had a lovely strong parsley taste.

foodpanda x JACOMAX Pizzeria

My third time using foodpanda, the trusted delivery service.


Ordered from Jacomax because I have tried it before.
The carbonara was creamy and the pasta was al-dente with generous pieces of bacon in it.

For the other dish, I had the risotto which was filling and tasty.

Basically a great option to order on a rainy/sunny day when you are too lazy to get out of the office!

Lettuce and fish soup at Snack Express

Just felt like eating some veggies so went to Snack Express.
It was late that evening so the ladies there were better tempered because there were no customers.

There was lots of lettuce but the fish broth was rather bland hence the lettuce was tasteless.
