Their papaya one had just the right amount of sweetness, and the herbal jelly mixture of red bean, taro balls and other toppings was a popular one amongst our group of four. Overall, if we had ordered an extra one, I would argue this was easily a 5 out of 5! Service was fairly quick in and out - seated in 5 minutes despite being a full house, and served within 5 minutes despite being a full house. Of course, being in Hong Kong space was limited, so it did feel a little too cozy especially in the summer, but the air conditioning made the dining experience more enjoyable.

I ordered the mixed fruit mango pomelo sago, and my fiance ordered the mango pomelo sago with glutinous rice balls. The mango pomelo sago in both are good - not overly sweet and just the right temperature. I'd probably pass on the mixed fruit - the variety wasn't particularly exciting or sweet. The glutinous rice balls in my fiance's were a nice textural addition though. English menus are available upon request.

Bingsu is Korean milky shaved ice and although none here are comparable to the best Bingsu which is Homilpat in Seoul, this place comes pretty close! The Bingsu here is similar in texture to Hanbing in Harbour Plaza, but the sizes are bigger and and you get much more for the same price! The texture of the ice is what determines a good Bingsu and the shaved ice here is pretty soft, although not the snow like fluffy texture in Korea. You have to mix the ice as well as the ice is not made from milk and they just use condensed milk on top so if you don't mix it only the top will have flavor and the bottom will just taste like flavorless ice aka frozen water. My favorite bingsu flavors here are the mango and green tea. The green tea comes with a scoop of matcha ice cream and some red bean. The mango comes with a scoop of mango sorbet and mango sauce which kinda overpowers the natural mango flavor with an artificial one. The melon one is okay too and comes in a carved out honeydew and topped with a melon bar Popsicle. The food here looks pretty good as well and I will have to try it sometime!

We had to wait for 30 minutes to get in and I was starving but I guess the wait is worth it. There are quite a few things on the street below the restaurant so if you're impatient, you could walk around for a bit. The place is quite popular for young people. There were many friend groups and couples eating there. Everyone was sat quite closely together because the place wasn't big but I didn't mind that - it just added to the hub bub of the place! We ordered the Alien Tteokbokki, one of their most unique dishes, for the main dish. For drinks, I ordered the Chocolate Oreo slush and my friend got the Blue Lime Lemon Rita, a beer infused slush. Alien Tteokbokki (288 HKD): Deep fried squid on a ramen and tteokbokki base. very unique plating; taste was good but not special. They had 4 things on the side that were: scrambled egg, mashed potato, beef balls, and this interesting cheese donut thing. They tasted not bad, but were definitely very processed. Chocolate Oreo slush (53 HKD): oh my god this was so good. Quite pricey, but it was a really nice chocolatey sweetness and the whipped cream was nice and light. Though the whipped cream may have been whipped a bit too long as the texture was a bit grainy. Blue Lime Lemon Rita (88 HKD): really quite good - a sweet, tropical flavoured slush with a Corona beer stuck in the slush by a clamp. Presentation was very cool. You couldn't really taste the Corona until the end, but even then, it was only 3% alcohol content. Pricey but definitely recommend the Rita. Every table seemed to have a version of it. Their sweets/desserts and drinks are definitely their unique dishes. There was this Melona Shaved Ice that looked absolutely scrumptious, as well as a variety of other shaved ices. Overall, if you come here, I'd recommend trying their more unique things like the Ritas rather than the more "normal" dishes that you could find elsewhere. They may be yummy, but for such a long wait, definitely try one of the many cool things here!

I ordered green apple, Chinese bitter melon, celery, green pepper, and cucumber juice. Surprisingly, it was not bitter. Instead, the melon added a bit of complexity to the juice's flavor to balance the sweetness of the apple. It was very refreshing, healthy, and unique. Service (*** out of *****); Quick & efficient typical Hong Kong counter service. Juice girls were very clean. All the fruits and veggies looked very clean. Atmosphere (*** out of *****); Self seat with sturdy, yet spartan chairs and tables. Conclusion (**** out of *****); Great refreshing juice. Highly recommended. My approximately 8 ounce portion of juice was 32 HKD.

If you're a sucker for cute and homely cafe-esque restaurants, C'est la B is right up your alley…read more Located in Pacific Place, C'est la B is so beautifully decorated it's like a little art museum with the silhouette of tea cups hanging from the ceiling and the colorful displays of cakes. There's only a small couch area inside the restaurant itself; tables and chairs spill out onto the corridor to accommodate more diners. The tables and chairs are all brightly colored and loud, but not in a distasteful way. In the middle is a really nice tiered display with candles and flowers, almost like a colorful Christmas tree. We were here for dinner and there were quite a few sets to choose from, all between the prices of $125 and $145, with coffee or tea included at the end. My mother got the 'spice box' - the Malaysian chicken curry, and I got the 'Capri box' - spaghetti with tomato sauce and mullet. Both were accompanied with a salad and a small side dish - my mother's was gyoza and mine was deep fried breaded shrimp. Our food came in colorful bento boxes, and though the portion seemed small, I was actually pretty full by the end of it. The food was served really hot and I couldn't eat anything for the first minute or so because it was so hot! The spaghetti was great - the tomato sauce was very rich and thick, and I normally dislike fish but the mullet was very well done. My mother really liked her curry as well, though she did say the curry sauce was a little watery. We both ordered coffee after and this was the largest cup of coffee I'd ever seen! It was almost like a soup bowl. The coffee was very strong and bitter - not my cup of tea (ha!). I didn't finish the coffee, which is not something I often do at all! Overall, this is a nice place to have a relatively affordable meal. The seats are very comfortable and the environment is really relaxing - service is good too. I would love to come back and try their cakes sometime!

Only a stone's throw away from the Olympia Station, this place is so small that it's easy to miss. For folks looking for a quiet place to chat or some caffeine with a side of WiFi, this place fits the bill. Bear in mind, The Brew Job is no Starbucks. There is no indie music or up and coming artists playing in the background, or a fancy gift card for future purposes. The layout is narrow with super small tables and an even smaller tiny counter. Conversations are bound to be overheard, the smell of the coffee will permeate the room, and patrons are typically in and out constantly. Thankfully the staff is both efficient and friendly. It's a cash only operation, but it's nice knowing they also take Octopus cards. While the cappuccino and ice coffee are my go-tos (under $40), the real motivation for being here is their reasonably fast WiFI and solid, intimate meeting space. There is a parking garage across the street and some bicycle parking areas for commuters. Don't come here in a group of course, but for solo sipping and/or some intimate conversation, this is a quality neighborhood spot.

It is quite a small place and recommended to groups larger than 3 people. The espresso is quite mild and slightly sour with a tense of fruit aroma.

This is definitely a good place to slow down in a busy city and the place to go for people who appreciate third generation coffee.
