Juicy J's delicious eggs benedict and hot dogs

Olopon dog @ Juicy J's (First visit):
http://supersupergirl-dining.blogspot.com/2012/04/juicy-js-delicious-japanese-inspired.html

After the last hot dog I was already craving for another, so went for another one and had the eggs benedict as well.

This time I tried the Piri Miso dog which has grated radish, miso sauce and seaweed.
I asked for the spring onions instead of the seaweed.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

Piri Miso Hot dog - $28
The miso sauce was darker than the Ponzu sauce and the hot dog bun was crispier this time.
Again I really liked this hot dog and the hot dogs I have tried at Juicy J's because they are the best fusion hot dogs I have ever tried because of the sauce, bun, grated radish and spring onions.
MOS Burger and Freshness burger also have hot dogs but they do not taste as good as the ones here and it is just Japanese Mayo.

J's Eggs benedict $48
This was a set for $48 which was really reasonable in terms of price.
It was a muffin split into two each with a poached egg on top with Hollandaise sauce.
There was some fried potato wedges and some salad.
I was really surprised by it because the sauce was thick and the taste was how it should be, the quality is as good as The Flying Pan.
I felt the muffin was too crispy that day, but the eggs were poached just right with a runny centre.
I really loved the sauce and wish there was more Hollandaise sauce!
The potato wedges were really nice too and the oil was fresh so the wedges kept the potatoey taste and the flavoured coating on the wedges were extremely delicious.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Tea:
The set came with tea which was also impressive because there was a choice of English breakfast tea, Earl Grey, Jasmine, green tea with lemon.

 

So it was such a perfect finish to my eggs and benedict with some real proper tea!
The tea was served in a proper way too, the tea bag was immersed in boiling hot water and milk and sugar were given as well.

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Apart from that I felt their customer service was really attentative and they listen to EVERY customers needs.
I found something odd on my potato wedges and they were really apologetic and investigated into it, not like the Chinese customer service where it is not an issue.

Roast chicken and pasta @ Smart King

Tried the fried chicken last time, so decided to try the roast spring chicken because they have a rotating rotisserie over there.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Roast spring chicken:

The spring chicken was nice and tender and not dry.

There was lots of herbs and gravy on the surface of the chicken.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Pasta:

The pasta was too soft and the cauliflower and broccoli that came with it was too hard.

There was a choice of black pepper gravy or ordinary gravy for the pasta.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

To try: KFC XL Garlic butter chicken leg

I like all the elements in this set apart from the Portugese tart because I hate red beans, but I am sure it will be a popular items with the locals.
The potato party is now flavoured with teriyaki octopus sauce, I want to try that as well but I dont like the criss cut fries.

Smart enough to be Smart King?

Previously this place used to Roast owned by a star studded couple.

 

Anyway now it is Smart King which also serves Fried chicken and roast chicken.
They do not serve burritos. I really miss those Burritos at Roast.

The current machinery and recipe is probably the same as before so I tried the Fried chicken.

 

It costs $35 for 3 which is cheaper than KFC.

 

The chicken was not overly oily, but I prefer the chicken before served by Roast because there was caraway seeds on it.
The chicken coating was crispy and the chicken was juicy and flavoured, as with all Fried chicken there is a standard dose of MSG in it.

 

Italian Tomato in Wan Chai

Decided to dine at the Italian Tomato because it was new in Wan Chai.

 

Made the mistake of ordering the sets because the range was limited and not as good as the A la Carte items.
I should have ordered the free choice dinner set which has more choice!
The A la Carte range is cheaper and better but does not include drinks such as Coffee or Tea.

To order you have to order at the counter and then the food is brought over to you.

Ordered the spaghetti with ham and broccoli in cream sauce which comes with soup and a coffee and added $25 for an extra piece of cake.

The choice of soup was fixed and it was pumpkin that day.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Pumpkin soup
Tasted ok but the bun was just the local chinese sweet bread.

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
spaghetti with ham and broccoli in cream sauce
The cream sauce was foul, it was not cream but tasted like milk.
The sauce was so thin that it just sunk to the bottom and the pasta and sauce were seperate identities.

 

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
chocolate berries cake
The cake was ok and I liked the strawberry powder on top of the cream which gave it some sourness and the chocolate was not overly sweet.

Grilled squids @ Camden Town

After having fish and chips on an earlier visit, decided to get the squids this time and have it as a snack.

Took some pictures of the kitchen side which resembles a British fish and chip shop.

The squids were served in a cup for takeaway which was quite cute.

The taste of the squids were really nice and they were not too chewy or dry.

There was some sweetness from the sauce and their griller was clean so there was no foul rancid oil fumes.
