Prime location, it's right in the middle of Harbour City mall! The entrance is very small and…read moreunassuming so it can be easy to missHowever, this is a pretty small buffet so quite limited in their offerings. When I came to visit at the end of May, they were offering a Thai themed buffet. Some notable items were: Tom Yum Goong - Very good soup! Sour, lime, savoury, crazyyyy spicy! It's addicting to eat! Oyster bar - Oysters are shucked fresh and you can taste how fresh they are. They're small but very good. Thai desserts - Mango sticky rice!!!! YummYYY!!! They also have a good selection of cheese and hams. Prosciutto is available here for you pamma ham lovers (but it is also cleared out hella fast). Half the items here were not prepared that well - they were dry, barely warm, or not that fresh. Likely due to low turnover because this place was barely half full. The Indian food was good but not fresh because it was barely touched by the other customers. They have an entire dessert section horrayyy!! Unlimited good quality ice cream. Some selection of cakes. Candy bar (but the candy didn't look too good :( ). There's also a chocolate fountain! Service is great here - Attentive and constantly clearing out dirty plates!

Popcorn is the playful name of a big mall complex in the Hong Kong "suburb" of Tseung Kwan O…read morelocated in the New Territories. We ventured out here to get a feel of a more residential area Hong Kong area and one easily accessible by the MTR. As seems typical of Hong Kong's newer malls, it is clean and bright, well maintained, busy, accessible by the MTR, has lots of mid-priced (as opposed to high end luxury) shops and eateries, and also has a connected hotel, in this case both a Crowne Plaza and a Holiday Inn. We enjoyed our visit here and getting a lot of mall fitness steps in while at it. It does appear true that the further out from Hong Kong proper one goes, it does become slightly more laid back, slightly less crowded, and slightly less intense on the hustle and bustle.

There are a few quality restaurants serving Chinese, Japanese, Western (California Pizza Kitchen), and the expected coffee shops (including Starbucks) & dessert bakeries.

Silvercord is one of my favorite shopping malls in Kowloon. When I was a high school student and…read moreworking in the nearby Hard Rock Cafe (now an H&M), I used to frequent this place a lot. I still do today but not as much. Silvercord has 6 storeys of establishments but don't be fooled - 2 of those storeys are located underground; the basement and the lower ground floor. Silvercord also serves as a shortcut to Harbour City as it has an interconnecting interior bridge similar to Landmark. The majority of the basement floor consists of food republic, a decent food court that serves mostly Asian fare from Vietnamese to Japanese cuisine. In the middle of food republic, there are tea and smoothie kiosks. All the floors are equipped with restrooms as well as restrooms for the disabled. Contemporary fashion boutiques line the lower ground floor while the ground floor houses optical and jewelry shops. The first and second floor is a mix of different shops but my favorites are Pacific Coffee and Crumpler. The third floor has awesome dining options ranging from casual American Ruby Tuesday's to Taiwanese modern staple Din Tai Fung. A lot of expatriates I know have not been to Silvercord even though it's in such a prime location (Canton Road!). Compared to Harbour City, it can be seen as an afterthought but for me, Silvercord has its place. Whenever I'm in Tsim Sha Tsui, I make sure to drop by here because it is less crowded than Harbour City.

I have always been a fan of Sichuan cuisine and a sucker for beautiful restaurant decor. Today I…read morehad the chance to enjoy both at Red Almond. Part of the Aqua Group (who brought you the luxurious Hutong and whimsical Shu Hu Ju) Red Almond is a pared-down version of the elaborate Chinese cuisine the group is famous for. Resembling an ancient Chinese tea house (one of those restaurants in wushu movies where fights happen) the restaurant offers breath-taking city views of Causeway Bay. The food is excellent, although the famed Sichuan dan dan noodles were a disappointment (good peanut sauce; over-cooked noodles). It currently also offers a few Malaysian dishes seasonally, and those were done pretty well. It was really empty for a Sunday afternoon- I do hope my review will change that- it's a good option for Sunday brunch if Sundays in Causeway Bay is your thing. Bottomline: their weekday executive lunch is an excellent deal- 4 course for under $100; order dishes rather than bao and noodles.

So in looking for a healthy, non-carb afternoon snack, we stumbled upon this juice bar. A kiosk,…read morequick que type establishment, the line was quick and easy. I went with the Beauty Skin concoction of qua a, pineapple and tomato (being a skin care whore of sorts, not sure this a beauty skin enhancement, but a better option than other quick snack choices). It was good! If healthy, clean, simple is your format for eating, you would like this too. Served with no ice, so room temperature to the tongue, but clearly delicious....with juicing you really do taste the flavors of fruits and vegetables better. Now my review is talking about the juice bar, but know there is a huge "Whole Foods" like grocery store there too. I plan on being a regular to both.

There is enough staff to clear the tables quick enough. The selection of different foods is decent, everything is freshly prepared and quality is very good. I especially like the Korean food, the Japanese Ramen and the sushi. The sushi is very fresh and you can ask the chef to prepare some especially for you. Prices in general are inexpensive, you will can spend below HK$ 100 per person.

They sat us in the back of the restaurant (last minute booking, I can understand) however they sat us and forgot us. We came to spend money, left unhappy, unimpressed and angry. Manager Frankie apologized for being short staffed and also said he had noticed we always had empty glasses, yet nothing changed. Nothing got better, and they definitely didn't do anything to make it right. Don't hand me chocolate after we spent hundreds of dollars and upset for absolutely no service. No thank you. Next.
