Pretty good Taiwanese food, definitely better than anything in the states (I'm looking at you, 626!). My theory is anything closer to the country will have better food from that country, and TeaWood definitely proves my point. I got the beef noodle soup and Taiwanese sausage. Both were really good, and the flavors and textures were on point! The noodles were thick and chewy, and the soup-noodle-beef ratio was solid. I would've liked a few more carrots and daikon radishes to cut the dish. I also got some berry dessert that was a special, but the staff was a bit inattentive and I had to ask for it again. They legit thought I was just sitting there after my meal not paying . The dessert had some pieces of strawberries, two French macarons, two blueberries, two overwhelming strawberry frosted donuts, and a scoop of ice cream with a little glazed cake thing on the bottom. The macarons were not good, the donuts looked frozen and then thawed out and were way too sweet, the ice cream was redeemable, and the glazed cake thing tasted like a jello cake. If I wasn't so interested in the way the dessert was decorated, I would have just gotten the pineapple cake dessert. Maybe that was the way to go ‍

While the ice cream tastes quite artificial and the toasts cool down too quickly, I have lost my interest after taking a few pictures and tried a few bites. Anyway, I like the lunch set here. This is my twice time here and I've order the same beef brisket, minced meat rice and veggie as the last time. The beef brisket is quite impressive and tasty, perfect to go with the rice. Also, the latte is good, authentic Taiwanese style.

Everything was absolutely stunning! From the atmosphere to the food to the quality of the food. We loved it. We got the dinner for 4 when there was 5 of us but my son is only 9 so he doesn't really eat much. Plus it was more than enough food for the 5 of us. Especially in Hong Kong, if you're still hungry, you can always save some room for some Chinese traditional dessert too. So this meal for 4 was perfect for the 5 of us. We got to choose 3 appetizers so we got the truffle fries with parmesan cheese, mango shrimp salad and salted egg calamari. Entree we get to choose 2 so we picked the Salmon Wellington and Sirloin steak with purple potatoes. Pasta we can also picked 2 which was the seafood risotto and spaghetti with giant prawns. We also got half a dozen of raw oysters for appetizers and the meal came with some desserts. Everything was phenomenal. It was a bit pricey bc we paid around $1800 and the service could be better. You want to serve as an upscale Italian restaurant then you also have to provide a little more better service. I understand that it is not easy but with such a beautiful atmosphere and such phenomenal food, wouldn't you WANT to differentiate yourself by giving a little more better service? That's the reason why I took a star away. I didn't mind paying $1800 at all but I would have happily given a full 5 star is the staff had given a better experience. Other than that, the food, the atmosphere was absolutely stunning!

With the crop of thoughtfully designed cafes popping up within the Kwun Tong factory scene, I'm…read moresuper 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. PS: they're currently running a promotion that gives you discounts if you have the number 6 on your HKID card (6 being similar in pronunciation as the word deer in Cantonese), as well as if you interact with their Facebook page.

At first I was a little confused about the name, Greyhound Cafe? Not really sure why that name and…read moreI thought it is something "bus" related and maybe an American diner?! Greyhound Cafe is a franchise originated from Thailand and now in Hong Kong. Food is Thai Fusion. So you will find quite an interesting menu but the flavour profile is mainly Thai. This has become one of my family favourite place for gathering and of course I ended up coming here when I am in town. Reservation highly recommended as the restaurant is small and you will have 90 minute window to enjoy your meal. We tried quite a few items with some hit and miss. Just be warned they uses fresh thai chili pepper to season quite a bit and if you cannot eat spicy, there are non spicy dish that you might enjoy more. Spaghetti Cha Cha Cha ($128) seems to be the crowd favourite. Chicken Satay was meh... and the raw vegetables skewers that came with it was fail. You must not miss dessert! Mango Sticky Rice and Pandan layer cake both really good! They also offers Afternoon Tea Set which is much better value than dinner a la carte.

I tend to get pizza here - the house deluxe is my particular favorite. If you're feeling hungry and/or want some to take home, make sure to get a medium as the small pizza size is actually smaller than a traditional dinner plate. I also adore their iced cappuccino - there's just something yummy about it that is the best way to start the day (ironically as this place is next to a coffee shop). The wait staff are attentive and generally pretty friendly. They speak limited English but I always am able to communicate what I would like and they always get it right so we make it work. They have both indoor and outdoor seating so its great to have those options too. I really like this place, and would recommend it for family, friends, or any sort of group looking for some good, casual food.

Food: 3.75 stars Service/environment: 3.5 stars Overall: 3.75 stars Recommendations: hainan chicken rice, nasi goreng The hainan chicken rice here is really good. It's worth coming here just for this dish. The chicken is nice and moist and the rice is fragrant and not too oily. It also comes with a bowl of chicken soup. The nasi goreng is also really quite nice. It comes with two pieces of chicken sate and a fried drumstick and is topped with a fried egg. The drinks were not as nice as the food. The the Tarik here really tastes more like a Hong Kong milk tea than a yeh Tarik. The lime soda also has a bit o a Hong Kong flavor to it and more resembled a salty lemon seven up than a lemon soda.

We had two young children with us and the waitresses made us feel comfortable (children are noise machines :D ) Once I start to talk about the food, everything goes downhill! They have extremely small portions for the price, something I'm okay with if it were decent. The sweet and sour pork was amazing- the most battered I've eaten drenched in sauce. We also ordered some fried rice, vege stir fry and a fish all of which was sub par even compared to your local corner Thai restaurant. It seems their ingredients are the best but also the chef isn't experience enough so home cooked food could easily pass the grade of food here.

I rarely venture my way to the south of Hong Kong Island - maybe later once the MTR finally reaches…read morethat part of Hong Kong - yet, there was one time I went there and I came to a place called Chef Studio by Eddy. I do not know much about culinary and let's face it, I can hardly scramble an egg. So when I heard about a restaurant that was named after a chef called Eddy, I was determined to figure this place out. My friend made a reservation a week ago (and I guess it is indeed a rather popular place?). Since it was located in one of those Industrial Buildings which I clearly had no idea about, I was having such mixed feeling at first not knowing if I have expected too much. And I have to say - nope. This is one hell of a private kitchen - in an excellent way. What I loved that evening the most was how approachable Eddy was, he is the guy on the cover and I was stunned how friendly and witty he is. I saw walls of photos, certificates and medals and I have to say, okay, this is got to be AMAZING - and YES it is. Remember I told you guys earlier I do not even know how to scramble an egg properly? Guess what, our first dish was a scrambled egg with smoked salmon. (In my face!?) I really do not know how he did it but the egg was the creamiest and smoothest I have ever tried in my entire life. We tried much more dishes afterwards but I have to say all set the bar very high and we were not disappointed at all!
