It is located at the top floor, keep an eye out for the advertisement above the escalator- we almost missed it. This shop is not enclosed and has a small bar with only six seats available. They sell many flavors or ecalirs as well as still water, sparking water and juice. They also offer a gift shop with small chocolates and other treats available to purchase. We tried the Chocolate ecalir, maple pecan and raspberry. They raspberry was the total show stopper and tasted amazing. They are slightly cool when served and the the filling comes out chilled. This is the perfect treat and is pretty as well as delicious. Yum!

I stumbled upon this little éclair booth in Central at the prince building. At first Glance I…read moredidn't think much of it but upon closer inspection, not only are these little sweets pleasing to the eye but probably the best éclairs I've had to date. Texture, moisture, sweetness = it's all balanced. You'd probably get only 2-3 big bites from one éclair - if you don't stuff your face. But it's ohhh Sooo yummy. I'd say this is a much better alternative to cupcakes if you're having a sweet tooth kinda day. At an average of $38HKD per piece, it's still worth it.

I'm a local Bay Area native from San Jose, so suffice to say, I was really curious about Lady M when my HK cousin was raving all about it. Taste wise? The first half of the cake slice was very satisfying. However, it is a bit too rich for my taste and I find myself getting a little overwhelmed by the time I get to other half of the slice. This is the first time I've ever tried a crepe Mille cake, and I'm very interested in the concept. Lady M is definitely upper scale at about 9-10 USD per slice. My cousin and I ordered the earl gray while my mom ordered the original. I did love the ambiance and the simple, classy decor of the place as well as the bags/boxes. Hopefully, they'll bring a Lady M to the Bay Area!

This place has super thick n fluffy pancakes for a delicious brunch!!! The pancakes come in stacks…read moreof 3 and on weekdays only, you can mix n match the pancake flavors! They have many unique flavors like earl grey tea, matcha, and peanut butter! They also have the original buttermilk and chocolate. You also have a choice of your fruit toppings and sauce. My friend and I had the earl grey pancakes topped with fruit and classic maple syrup. The pancakes are thick like Japanese style hotcakes and they are pretty fluffy as well. The earl grey didn't really taste a lot different from regular pancakes to me although it did have a faint tea flavor and was less sweet than regular buttermilk pancakes. We also had the toast and egg combo was which pretty average but not bad. The smoothies and coffee here are also pretty good, but again nothing special. Personally, I would probably only come here for the pancakes. Prices range about 100hkd a person and a little more if you order drinks.

We came across this cute little cafe using some alley space in a rather isolated corner of SOHO…read more The place was packed on a Saturday afternoon and was told to wait around for 20 mins before we were seated. You order and pay at the counter and you receive a transponder when your food is ready for pick up. The menu is in the form of a photo album and some are hand written with pictures. Two of us ordered the potato salad and early grey pancakes with Nutella, bananas and strawberries to share along with a soda and a refresher smooth (green apple, cucumber, mint). The Earl grey pancakes came out more like thick pan cakes stacked on top of each other with Nutella in between them. These aren't really the fluffy pancakes which I was expecting as its dense and more like a cake. The two of us couldn't finish the huge stack but one girl next to us finished the whole stack by herself! The soda and smoothie tasted very blend and was sure no sugar was added. The service was good and the menu is thoughtfully put together but I would hope to taste some fluffier pancakes in the future.

Lovely spot for brunch with friends!…read more The decor is modern, clean and inviting with a hipster vibe. If that's your thing, you'll love it here! It's just a 4 minute walk from Exit D, Jordan MTR station- convenient for anyone who's around TST. MUST-TRY: signature toast with nine homemade jams ($48)! This is a great way to sample their homemade jams, which they sell in jars for $48-68 HKD each. The toast is very crisp and the jams are bomb. My favorite is the lychee one! My foodie friend got the full English breakfast and said it was great. I didn't try it so I can't give my opinion but he gives his seal of approval and recommends. PASS: Pastas and risottos probably aren't the best thing to order here. Risotto is a hit or miss dish for me- I got a pumpkin risotto and the flavor was fine but it was overcooked and too mushy for my liking. Just keep in mind that they specialize in breakfast/brunch items and stick to those dishes. All in all, worth trying out. I recommend Let's Jam if you're a brunch lover!

I was just looking to grab a coffee and stumbled upon this little jewel. A small place and it was…read morejust opening as I got there. The price was so reasonable. My breakfast cost less than yesterday's latte. I ordered breakfast #5 which was toast with fruit and yogurt and included coffee. I didn't realize the fruit and yogurt would be on the toast, but it was good and as a bit of a coffee fuss budget, the coffee was fantastic. It was a delightful start to the day and I am pretty sure I will repeat the visit tomorrow morning.

However, the ones here are made pretty delicately and doesn't have an overpowering generous pouring of pesto sauce. But it may also have been because I was sharing the few crepes we ordered. So my suggestion is to share a few crepes, so you can try more than just one because they're all so yummy! They also serve French cider in a bowl--which was soo cute. Kind of weird at first because it feels like you're going to be sipping on chowder but instead you get a nice, crisp beverage. Staff are all really nice and patient here. I highly recommend this place for a chill, relaxing environment away from the HK crowds.

If this review were just about the food then I'd give them more stars…read more Came here on a busy Friday lunch and the wait was about 5-10 minutes which isn't long at all, however the process was slightly confusing and chaotic. When I went in to ask a staff whether my table was ready, he looked at me and walked away. Amazing. His attitude is one to leave you gobsmacked! This is an Asian guy. The French host/possibly owner is much better. Ordered a salmon galette and vanilla ice cream crepe. Both of which were pretty good.although I was disappointed the galette was hard and not light and crispy, the taste was decent. There was a white sauce that looked like mayonnaise but upon consuming, it was a grain, floury texture without much flavor. Call me an amateur! I do not know my crepes but that was weird. The vanilla ice cream with caramel sauce- SO GOOD

All throughout the hidden cafe is Harry Potter decor, with every wand available out there, the cart they pushed through the 9 3/4 platform wall, portraits, books, and on and on. The tables, table setting, everything to the tiniest detail immersed you into the magical wizarding world. It's not somewhere I think tourists would classically come to, but my girlfriend is a huge fan, and I stumbled across it while looking for unique things to do and see in Hong Kong. The food also isn't half bad. We had a roasted duck noodle dish that was really delicious, some butterbeer, and this grape soda drink that they serve to look like it came straight from Snape's potions class. I'd highly recommend coming here if you have the time and are a fan :)

Not sure if it gets busier on weekends. There's a wall with a couple brooms hanging, a bookshelf packed with Harry Potter paraphernalia, old-timey art, floating dementors, chairs with patronuses printed on them, a collection of wands, a trolley half buried in a wall, and mirrors with wand movement for spells printed on them. That sounds a lot cooler than it was. Food itself was not bad, but again would not make a return trip nor would I recommend visiting.

The photos appear to be out of date since the glass cases in the photos are no longer there and are replaced with plastic cases where you grab the treats yourself (with tongs). While they had "traditional" Hong Kong bakery items like sausage (hot dog) buns, it was more of a French-inspired bakery with cheesy breads, croissants and other breads. I ended up getting the three-cheese bread which was tasty though spendy at ~$16 HKD. In addition to the takeaway counter, there is also a sit-down cafe next door.
