With an asian-influenced menu, they have locals and expats coming for lunch. Even though I'm not a vegan, I'm still a big fan of their hazelnut soy latte. And I do love coming here to support my vegan / vegetarian friends.

Decent lunch spot that actually gives very large portions for the price…read more Gluten-free, vegetarian/vegan friendly spot because they have several different dishes, or what they call "toppings" here. I chose the "3 toppings" order which comes out to be $95hkd or ~$12usd for a lot of food that I couldn't even finish it all. The "toppings" I could choose from were things like tofu red curry, fresh rice rolls, and stir fried veggies. Nice for a work lunch or a healthy alternative with fresh veggies. There's ample dining space inside, just have to walk up a narrow staircase.

Little Cove in Kennedy Town is a nice small European style Cafe. However, I am very disappointed…read morewith the quality of the food. We ordered Pulled beef Benedict and Ragu Papperdalle. The Pulled beef Benedict is extremely lack of flavor. The poached egg has no taste as well. Overall if it is one of the signature dish, then I don't know what else to say. The Ragu Papperdalle is a bit better in taste, at least not seasoning and flavor. Honestly, not recommended for a brunch spot as price is not really cheap. Spent over $300 for two without drink.

After a nearby staycation, we enjoyed brunch at this delightful dining place. Everything we tried…read morewas of exceptional quality, and the presentation was exquisite! The café offers both indoor and alfresco seating, creating a laid-back vibe with its crisp white décor. My fav of the day goes to The pork shred is tender and flavorful, infused with a smoky sweetness that pairs wonderfully with the creamy hollandaise. Another main dish was rich and flavorful, with tender chunks of beef slow-cooked to perfection. Esp. the sauce!! Love it so much. Doused in umami yoghurt sauce, was also fork-tender, while its accompanying sauce adds a creamy texture and a hint of nuttiness. We rounded off our meal with a special . It looks aesthetic with its baby pink colour. The sweetness of the chocolate perfectly balances the natural earthiness of the beetroot!

Great spot for some healthy lunchtime choices…read more Lunch deal was a bit pricier than normal, but featured some nice choices. Light salads through to small pasta and egg dishes, a broad selection. Service was friendly and attentive. Food came out fast, and in sequence. There was no hurry up at the end of the meal - the staff topped up my tea, encouraging me to linger. I had the soup of the day - mushroom - which was properly seasoned and tasted delicious. My main was the Prawn and Poached Egg Pasta on chilli oil linguine. A hit with me, and sized so that you don't feel bloated at the end of the meal. The lunch set included a choice of teas - just a teabag serving, topped up graciously by the staff. Happy to go back or recommend to others.

The service was quick and friendly. I ordered the eggs benedict with salmon and they came with toasted brioche instead of English muffins which although still tasted delicious was not quite the same. The scrambled eggs were stacked high so make sure you are hungry! I tried their vanilla hazelnut milkshake which was really good (not overly nutty) and they have a good mix of coffees and fresh juices on their menu.

I visited Artisan Garden Cafe yesterday with a few of my friends. As a brunch and coffee…read moreenthusiast, I was excited to sample the menu and had heard of the Melbourne style brunch this cafe aimed to imitate. I ordered the iced Americano as my drink due to the hostesses suggestion but found that I was deeply disappointed due to its watery consistency even though the ice added was frozen coffee. After looking at the other drinks fellow diners ordered, I was very impressed by the intricate latte art that was created and will definetly be sticking to my classic extra hot latte next time! For my meal, I ordered the classic poached eggs with avocado on top. I was pleasantly surprised by the choice of feta cheese and sun-dried tomato that accompanied the avocado. I found the bread options to be quite limited as only white and sourdough were an option, and due to the modern nature of the cafe itself I would have expected a gluten free option too. Overall I though that my experience at Artisan Garden Cafe was great as the experience of not being in a typical Hong Kong cafe was enjoyable. It was definitely a relaxed escape from the usual hustle and bustle that you experience in this city. Although a trek from the city, I would definitely recommend this cafe.

Thank you for offering delicious gluten free options in Hong Kong!…read more It was so great to know that everything on the menu was gluten free! We loved the bacon burger and relished the sugar free cake. The brioche for my sandwich was soft and fluffy and the cake so creamy. This cafe is super cute, in a friendly walking lane amid staircases. Lots of hip street art abound.

Finally get around to writing a review on one of my favorite cafes in SYP…read more - Great coffee with a selection of milks (soy milk, and they even almond milk which seems to be a latest hipster trend). - Free wifi. Speeds quite good (after all this is HK). Wifi also works outside in the courtyard. - Power at some of the tables, including USB outlets too. - Very spacious (which seems like a luxury in HK) - Outdoor Courtyard. Which is nice in the cooler months. And a lot of people overlook it so it's a nice quiet work space. - Pet friendly. There's even a puppachino for the pets. - Good food also. I like the pasta here. - Cheap co-working space upstairs (which may or may not be related). But they use the same bathrooms anyway.

THEY HAVE REALLY COLD AIR-CONDITIONING HERE! This is a luxury during the hot months in Hong Kong…read more(which is about 9/12 months of the year). Also they have really good coffee and the prices are cheaper than a lot of the coffeeshops in Hong Kong (especially the ones by sheung wan that I like). I always get their iced coffee with almond milk along with their smoked salmon sandwich! Their coffee is a lot more aromatic and stronger than a lot of other coffee shops in hk. Also, their coffee is less acidic too. I mean there's not a lot of good coffee in hk. One more thing I like about this place is that they have a lot of milk options. They let you pick between almond milk, soy milk, low-fat milk, and whole milk! Tip: they have wifi, a lot of space, and their bathroom is huge (upstairs)

During our vacation in the city, we would alternate between places like this and the more classically Hong Kong breakfast spots (mainly serving baked items and simple dishes of egg and meat). My "big brekky" (complete, with toast, eggs, bacon, sausages, a hash brown, and a small salad) filled me up nicely until lunchtime. Service was very friendly, and I believe there's a student discount 10% or 15% discount for students (so said a chalkboard). Only qualm might have been that my latte was served a little cooler than I usually like it.
