It was so hard to choose after looking at all the food options, especially the "comfort food" options. The sand which was very larger, I was able to take the other half home .

The eggs being over cooked, had a non runny yolk. I ordered sides of baked beans and corn grits which were both fine. Our plates came out with the sides switched up. Not a big deal. Not bad for a western breakfast in Hong Kong. Not great either. I've had better western breakfast in Shanghai, though you would think Hong Kong being the international hub it is, would have even higher standards for western foods. Eggs Benedict: 85HK. Unlimited coffee: 35HK. Using a restaurants own WiFi to post a 2 star review about them: Priceless.

I went with an Eggs Guacamole and a mango juice and I thought it was all pretty awesome overall. The food isn't overly expensive, you get fairly generous portions, and they definitely don't skimp on your free sides. The potatoes were a tad dry and I probably wouldn't go with them the next time around, but their grits aren't half bad. Hollandaise sauce is thick, yet runny, and the eggs were poached perfectly. The guacamole was offered in generous portions, and the only thing that I could possibly say they weren't generous with, in terms of portion size was my juice. That's fine though. I'll definitely be back to try a few other menu items.

Le Marron is nestled in the heart of Causeway Bay. It is located in a commercial building on the…read more12th floor. The entrance to the building is hidden, you might walk by. In addition the lift lobby doesn't look very inviting. Once you enter the restaurant the atmosphere changes totally. The setting is cosy, decor may be a little kitschy. All tables are separated by curtains, giving every party a little more privacy. This place for sure has a romantic touch. The wine list is short but that's not a problem. As most of the guests bring their own wines and the good news is that they won't charge you for whatever you bring. Service is attending and efficient. They're knowledgeable and will recommend the specialties of the house. Food emphasizes on French cuisine. Starters include French Gilardeaux oysters, torteaux and steamed mussels. The soup of the mussels is especially delicious. Seafood is very fresh. Don't miss out on the soups which include classic onion soup and lobster bisque. The mains include confit de canard, lamb Wellington, Holstein rib eye and kurobuta pork chop. All of those dishes are great, cooked to perfection. If you're into pasta try the fettuccine with boneless of tail. If you have room there's a good selection of classic French desserts. This place is highly recommended and it's really good value for money.

Went to the Flying Pan in Wan Chai for brunch with a few friends. It's built like a traditional…read moreAmerican diner with a large variety of meals suited for all hours of the day (it's open 24 hours!), which is perfect for a quick pick-me-up in the morning or a carb craving after a Wednesday night out (go big green). Its portions are massive, at least relative to others in Hong Kong, and it has some pretty good deals if you want a cheap but filling meal. I ordered a $50 HKD set with four pieces of toast, two eggs cooked the way psychos like em (yolkless and fried), a bowl of tomato soup (my side-dish option), a bowl of fresh fruits (my second side-dish option), a cup of orange juice (my beverage option), and I also added on two link sausages for $22 HKD. I wasn't a fan of either the fruits (they didn't seem all that fresh) or the sausages (sorta tasted like plastic), but you definitely get a value meal.

I'd come again if I'm trying to be healthy and want something a little bit different, but not if I'm at all hungry or I'd need to supplement it with something else before/after.

Similar to cuisines in Australia, a diverse from British-based, with great ingredients selections, and they love lamb, um, I think. With curiosity, my friend and I decide to go and give a try. Located in Graham Street, just below Hollywood Road, Motu Kiwi is easy to spot. It's a tiny cosy cafe, decor is simple, with an open kitchen, which is good to chill with friends. We start with caesar salad, right amount of ingredients and flavours, lettuce is fresh and bacon is crispy. The main of my friend is fish and chip - classic and delicious, fish is cooked beautifully and chips are homemade; but the best dish of evening is fish kokoda! The dish is more like ceviche, marinated raw fish (mine is snapper) imported directly from New Zealand, seasoned nice with lemon juice, paired with fresh salad, all work together! I have to say the dishes are in big portion, have to leave dessert in our next visit. One more credit to give to the staff, Nicole is super friendly and she knows everything in the menu! It is difficult not to celebrate good food with good wines, unfortunately Motu Kiwi is still waiting for liquor license, however, there are enough reasons to come back again.

Excellent Excellent Excellent !…read more This tiny little hard to find 4 table burger joint is just what I needed after a week in mainland China. I don't eat Chinese food or even any derivative of Chinese food. I ordered a plain hamburger with some French fries... And Circus Beer. It's difficult to get a "perfect" rating on a plain hamburger. I considered that it might have been because I hadn't eaten a real meal in a week, so I went back. The "perfection" rating held up after two visits. The beer was excellent, I like American race car beer, and Circus was served in an almost frozen glass and paired perfectly with the burger and fries. I'm 8000 miles away and I'm still thinking about it. It's not easy to find this place, so stay focused.

The burger was okay, thankfully, they had a bottle of Tabasco nearby to liven things up a little, even the bacon was a little on the chewy side. The atomic fries, which were supposed to be cajun style left little more than my fingers a little red. I might circle back to it eventually to try out the food but not for a while.
