Nestle's Yo-Jelly [Yogurt+Jelly in peach or blackcurrant flavours]

The concept of natural yogurt and jelly sounded interesting, so got both flavours blackcurrant and peach.
It is produced by Nestle's Dairy Farm in Hong Kong.
It consists of yogurt at the bottom of the cup, and above the yogurt is a layer of jelly.
To me, peach tasted better and natrual with some sour notes however blackcurrant was fake and sweet for my liking.

Sensa Cools 清熱酷

Just for fun I got this drink, before I bought it, I checked the labels to see what was in it.
I was not drinking it for cooling purposes but just as a drink.
It tasted like TaoTi's honey green tea, but it contains green tea, honeysuckle, Chrysanthenum, momordica grosvenori, Houttuynia, licorice, jasmine, honey, vitamin C and other stabilisers.

Chocolate sponge ice-cream

Tried this chocolate ice-cream sandwiched between two slices of sponge, it was quite nice and reminded me of Kinder's milk slices which is also frozen ice-cream sandwiched between spongecake.

Häagen-Dazs Secret Sensations creme brulee

Häagen-Dazs, a famous U.S. brand of ice cream created Secret Sensations, a new dessert for people who like ice cream and comes in two variants: Crème Brûlée, sandwiched by bits of caramelized sugar and caramel and Chocolat Fondant, completely covered with pieces of biscuit enriched with cocoa and nuts and chocolate.
I tried both flavours, creme brulee was nice with pieces of caramelized sugar and in the centre was liquid!

Pennywort drinks

Got this drink because it looked interesting, it originates from Thailand but the Chinese people most probably drink it too because there is Chinese on the labelling.

Not sure what it is in Chinese, but the English for it is Pennywort.
When you shake the bottle, the contents are very thick.
It was very sweet to drink so it had to be diluted.
Anyway, it tastes exactly the same as WHEATGRASS.

[OR6-8/2/2006] Canadian style food at Triple O's by White Spot (金鐘)

Totally agree with Jenn.m that this is Canadian food.

Yesterday I went to Triple O's for a burger.

I ordered a mushroom burger meal with extra egg and chose the blueberry milkshake for the drink.

The mushroom burger tasted very nice, quite a decent size, and complimented well with the sauces, the chips were also lovely, and I was pleased that there was vinegar to use, and table ketchup, all the necessaries that should go with the chips. The chips were medium cut, not too thin or too thick.

Lastly the milkshake was great. Their milkshakes are freshly whipped to order.

For a fast food restaurant, their staff were helpful, as they assisted me in pouring the ketchup when it did not want to come out of the bottle.

Next time, I shall try the Veggie burger.........

[OR5-6/2/2006] Terrible Food at 牛車水餐廳 Kreta Ayer Restaurant

Before going in, Kreta Ayer seemed like a better than average restaurant compared with others around Lai Chi Kok.

When we sat down, we decided to order some set meals from their menu, firstly it was hard trying to get a waiter to come over, when he finally came over, he told us not to order the set meals from the menu as it would take a long time. So we ended up ordering the Daily Set Menu.

I ordered Black Peppered Beef with Rice, which came with soup and drinks. Actually personally I felt their menu was rather boring. I think for lunch in Lai Chi Kok, it was rather over priced. For an average lunch in LCK, is only about 30 inc drinks and soup.

The restaurant was rather noisy and hectic, you have to chase the waiters, to serve you, bring the food and bring the bill. The 10% service charge should be knocked off since there is no service, and the food is overpriced.
