When our relatives suggested meeting here at Hot In A Pot, I assumed we'd be having hot pot for…read morelunch. However, it turns out they serve dim sum in the afternoon instead. Our group of seven appreciated that they accept reservations. Ordering was straightforward--you use a self-serve paper menu to tick off the items you want, and the dishes are prepared fresh. We enjoyed the usual dim sum favorites like BBQ pork buns, shrimp har gow, pork siu mai, sticky rice in lotus leaf, and steamed rice noodles. They also offered some unique items, like sesame matcha fried pancakes and shrimp mini sliders, which stood out. However, the steamed tripe and beef pan-fried noodles were unexpectedly spicy that day, and most of us couldn't handle the heat. Our relatives, who are regulars, made sure to inform the staff so the feedback could reach the chef. Overall, the dim sum here is solid, and I'd imagine their hot pot in the evening is just as good.

In all honestly, I did believe the owner of leaf dessert was going to be a bit rude in behavior…read moreprior to my visit so the fact she was 100% exactly the way people claimed her to be wasn't going to change my liking to the quality of food. Unfortunately, both desserts I've ordered came out completely sloppy. Sloppy as in, it wasn't made with love and that the taste wasn't ideal. The coconut sago was watered down and it tasted "dirty". It's very hard to describe what this dirtiness tasted like but it was as if it was made with old ice blended down, or that it had a flavor of something that was left in the back of the freezer for a year and then defrosted. The mochi wasn't to my liking either even though I so much wanted to enjoy it. I suppose nothing was wrong with the texture but it was the topping which made my tastebuds very sensitive. It had a kick to it as if it had ginger or something. I sure do hope it was ginger or I wouldn't know what made me feel that way. Overall, do not order the coconut sago and that every comment below mine is correct when saying the owner will in fact yell at you and that she will be a bit rude.

We were excited to try this place and walked pretty far for it. We even walked through the…read morecockroach infested alleyway to get there. When we got here we asked what the popular items were. The lady responded loudly, "Don't ask such stupid questions!" She kept ranting and repeating that we were silly and asked stupid questions. The reason we asked was because the menus on the walls were in Chinese and we couldn't read it, but have been getting away with asking for recommendations in Cantonese. This time it didn't work out too well for us... The lady was so rude, so we took our business elsewhere. She probably scares all the customers away purposely so she can eat all the leftovers herself.

First time at this Korean Chicken Galbi Speciality Restaurant, one of the first authentic Chicken…read moreGalbi Restaurant from Korea. The Chain started in Korea in 1981 and has over 140 shops all over Korea now. Being one of the two in Hong Kong, we choose to go the one in Tsuen Wan Plaza. With available underground parking, this is a great location for shopping and dinning. Since it is a new experience for us, we asked for some advice from the person at the front who took our order and also took us to our table. In a nut shell, you get AYCE Korean Chicken Galbi & BBQ items! In the centre of the grill you will have a cooking area for your chicken, the perimeter of the grill is left for your grilled meats etc. They also give you a choice of rice or noodles to mix into the chicken in the centre, and if you want you can also use the centre cooking area to make a hot pot with the soup provided!! As a newbie, this is serious cooking!! Busy with the centre while you have to watch out for all the meats around the side! I have to say all the meats are of high quality and of course their chicken is well spiced and very flavourful!! With all the hot & cold drinks included, your also get a small dessert selection with soft serve as well!! Great experience and you also have fun cooking along the way!! Unlike the regular Korean BBQ we are all so familiar with, this has many other ways you can enjoy the great flavours of a Korean meal!

SUMMARY After a disastrous first few hours in HK, this was…read moreour first meal in HK and it was better than expected. It definitely cured the hangry in all of us! Would recommend, but don't expect great service here...or in HK for that matter. ATMOSPHERE (5/5) While I could look this up, I believe this is a licensed theme restaurant as evidenced from the cute, cartoon like atmosphere TeaWood restaurant. The place is adorned with cartoon characters in a woody setting. It's very well done and hat's off to the people who put this together. FOOD (5/5) Wife says this is a Taiwanese character that serves Taiwanese meals and maybe because of this, we were very happy with our meal---mostly because we had a really crappy time getting to our AirBnB and the general attitude of people who we encountered along the way (unhelpful and rude). I ordered a tripe based soup with noodles in a beef broth and it was a 5/5 for me. The broth was very clean, not oily. Noodles were perfectly good. Tripe was not over or undercooked. Vegetables still had a bit of snap to it. Really happy with my meal. My wife ordered a red bean dessert that I took a few bites as well. One of the things I liked about that was how perfectly cooked the mochi balls were. All around delicious. SERVICE (2/5) Perhaps this is a cultural thing, so HK people don't beat up on me too harshly for saying this: but even in a more pricier corporate type of restaurant like this, the service is not friendly was not friendly here and especially at smaller mom and pop shops ***anywhere*** we went in HK. Any time we asked a question, there was this sort of disbelief or umbrage that we would ask a question about what was in a dish, what a certain type of ingredient was, etc. RETURN VISIT? If we do return, we'd probably go back or at least I would. Sans the service, the restaurant is good and tourist friendly to a certain point.

Milk tea was nicely flavored, though we forgot to request an iced one! Chocolate strawberry brick toast was not the best I've had but it was still good. Rocky road ice cream, slightly chewy and not so fried bread, whipped cream and strawberries! Yum! A cute place, food came out quickly and servers were polite (you may need to flag them down). Great for a date or catching up with a girl friend!

This Is Our Place (shopping centre) this afternoon, and came across this Japanese-styled cafe on the 3rd floor again lol. I'd say the quality and the selection of the food is even better now (it was already pretty good the first time around!) The service is still very friendly; the space is still very relaxing and spacious - highly recommend this spot for catching up with friends! The main things that changed after covid-19 were that there are dividers between tables, and you order via QR code at your table, and pay at the register counter in the front after your meal. We ordered the Eel on rice with soup (where you pour the soup in), and Yuzu clam udon - both were very tasty. The matcha latte with ice cream and mochi was creamy and delicious and the hot hoji tea was also a nice choice if you want something light but strong.
