With the crop of thoughtfully designed cafes popping up within the Kwun Tong factory scene, I'm super excited to try this cafe, which is nestled within a factory building on a busy street. It's not too hard to find, as there are plenty of signage leading from the front of the industrial looking building. After a short flight of stairs, you turn into the well decorated, comfortable interior of the cafe that's a nice escape from the hustle and bustle outside.
On the weekday afternoon I was there, the place was packed with people on their lunch break from their offices. Nevertheless, I was able to get a table. The place was well lit, with a clean design that feels quite comfortable even when it's packed.
I ordered the lunch set, which comes with soup (cream of mushroom), garlic bread, an entree of your choice and a drink (ranges from ~HKD 60 - 120ish, which isn't bad at all!) I also really appreciated that they had a designated healthy entree option (with the number of calories listed), since I'm trying to eat healthy.
The mushroom soup was decent and tastes homemade, although could be a little thicker in my opinion. I got the healthy entree option, which is brown rice with grilled chicken and an okra salad. The okra gave the salad such a nice refreshing touch in terms of novelty, and was well dressed. Chicken could be a tad bit more juicy but had the delicious grilled flavor, and I enjoyed the sesame-based sauce on it - plus I actually felt super healthy eating it!
Overall, a nice, affordable spot for a meal in a comfortable space! Excited to see how the restaurant scene blossoms in the future in this area.
