florsfloreats: Greyhound Cafe - Hong Kong
http://florsfloreats.blogspot.com/2014/07/greyhound-cafe-hong-kong.html
Saturday, 26 July 2014. Greyhound Cafe - Hong Kong. Date of visit: Wednesday, 25 June 2014. My neighbourhood mall underwent a massive renovation this year. There was a change of layout and an injection of new blood. It was hard bidding farewell to shops I grew up with, but when I knew "Greyhound Cafe" was opening in a quiet corner of the mall, I was excited! After all that drama, it would be interesting to see if Greyhound lived up to its own idea of being an elBulli reincarnation or the new NOMA. Though...

florsfloreats: This Fortnight in Eating (30 Jun - 13 Jul)
http://florsfloreats.blogspot.com/2014/08/this-fortnight-in-eating-30-jun-13-jul.html
Saturday, 2 August 2014. This Fortnight in Eating (30 Jun - 13 Jul). When I first started this blog, I envisioned a place where I document my eating adventures with pictures and as few words as possible, aka "let pictures do the talking". This explains the tagline "an eating log". But rambling on and on is my second nature. I find it hard to not talk when there's so much to talk about! Say hello to This Fortnight in Eating. Hokkaido Kaisendon 北海道魚生飯 ($98). Linguine Vongole ($145 set lunch). And Peking Ch...

florsfloreats: MANA! Fast Slow Food / Elephant Grounds - Hong Kong
http://florsfloreats.blogspot.com/2014/07/mana-fast-slow-food-elephant-grounds.html
Thursday, 24 July 2014. Fast Slow Food / Elephant Grounds - Hong Kong. Date of visit: Tuesday, 24 June 2014. Is the temple of the local clean eating community. It really does resemble a temple with all the exotic-looking sculptures. There are two types of people you see here, namely: yoga-pants-wearing, health-food-jargon-speaking type, and pseudo-healthy-eating type that believes a healthy resting heart rate comes from munching "health food" once in a blue moon. I belong to the latter. All flatbread is ...

florsfloreats: 85 South / Coco Espresso - Hong Kong
http://florsfloreats.blogspot.com/2014/08/85-south-coco-espresso-hong-kong.html
Tuesday, 5 August 2014. 85 South / Coco Espresso - Hong Kong. But times have changed. 85 South opened in Kau U Fong November last year. But can their stuff satisfy my carnivorous cravings? Lemonade came in a Solo cup. It would be great to wash down my greasy meaty plate with a tall cool cup of acidic sweet lemonade, but this cup at 85 South was too watery and bland for my liking. BBQ Tray Combo ($100). Back), I did steal a piece of chicken from Lae. It was moist and tender and full of barbecue flavour.

Monday, 30 June 2014. Fairyland - Hong Kong. Date of visit: Thursday, 12 June 2014. Never was I sucked into the Kraze, a term for the Korean craze coined by yours truly. But who can resist succulent crispy fried chicken washed down with ice cold beer? Apparently Fairyland serves the best Korean fried chicken in town. So for our celebration meal* we ventured to Austin Avenue, the new Korean Street, to have some KFC and drink beer before sunset. I wouldn't eat it even if it's free. Honestly even the Vegeta...

florsfloreats: Unar Coffee Company / Zai Fe - Hong Kong
http://florsfloreats.blogspot.com/2014/07/unar-coffee-company-zai-fe-hong-kong.html
Sunday, 20 July 2014. Unar Coffee Company / Zai Fe - Hong Kong. Is the secret code for my instant friendship. One of the best storefronts I have seen. Iced Regular Coffee ($35). Forgot how this tasted, but I clearly remember I enjoyed it, along with the spectacular skyline of HK Island. If you're adventurous, Unar serves interesting options such as Iced Cucumber Caffe Latte and Hot Ginger Caffe Latte. So next time you're in Star Ferry Pier in TST. don't run for ferry, enjoy Unar coffee! The baked goods a...

florsfloreats: OVOCAFE - Hong Kong
http://florsfloreats.blogspot.com/2014/08/ovocafe-hong-kong.html
Thursday, 7 August 2014. OVOCAFE - Hong Kong. Date of visit: Sunday, 6 July 2014. If you're active on the foodie side of Instagram, you should have seen pictures of people slurping spaghetti, posing with their all day breakfasts in a garden / greenhouse setting. Yes, I'm talking about OVOCAFE. A new(-ish) vegetarian cafe located in OVO store, part of the redevelopment project of the Grade III Historic Building Wan Chai Market. They, along with the high ceiling, made the place pleasant and very colourful.

Monday, 29 December 2014. R&B - Hong Kong. Date of visit: Saturday, 12 July 2014. This meal was from summer, but the food was too photogenic for these photos only to sit around on my hard drive and not shared. Though, photogenic. Might be the only positive adjective I could use to describe my experience at R&B. Let's begin with the stingy-portioned Fisherman's Chips. 1st picture). I'm a fan of thin-cut fries, but these were weirdly thin and soggy. Elote. Packed too much salt. The French Dip. While I real...
