Cali-Mex Bar & Grill (Closed)

Today was a special day that worth celebration. Special foods were needed for special days. Not much people get knowledge on Mexican food, so today we just go and try!The decoration of the restaurant was a combination of tradition and modern. Walls were made with bricks with home feelings. Beer machines were installed at each table, interesting!I ordered a burrito with angus steak. The taste was so nice, with magical combination of sour, sweet, salty and hot sauce. Vegetables, meat and rice were

又到星期五，放工要去慶祝有兩日假放。我想試呢間餐廳好耐，今日終於有機會。首先想講下呢度個happy hour好抵，$35杯 draft beer，飲到Stella~自選墨西哥卷 🌮️ 我哋揀咗雞肉黑豆，除咗雞肉、黑豆、還有飯～可以選擇辣度。我哋揀咗小辣，雞肉酸甜辣辣地，好入味。成個卷好飽肚。焗芝士忌廉菠菜粟米片加咗忌廉芝士一定好食，但我睇真啲菠菜有少少黃，感覺唔係幾新鮮。粟米片唔夠實淨，同出邊食嘅Nachos唔一樣，普通..薯條🍟飲啤酒想食返個薯條，普普通通加茄汁。我覺得薯條整得太油膩，同埋係幼薯條，冇咩口感。

今晚約咗個舊生去中環嘅PMQ整嘢食，但之前就約咗食餐飯先，喺網上面嘅app見到呢間餐廳有優惠，所以就黎食叫咗個手絲豬肉迷你漢堡，整得好精緻，但裏面嘅餡料份量好多，豬肉真係一絲絲好有咬口跟住叫咗個墨西哥餅，以為叫全份兩個人都可以食得晒，點知嚟到嘅時候估唔到有咁大件，可以分到八大塊，上面仲有配料同牛油果醬，而裏面嘅餡料多到爆出嚟咁。我哋兩個人食咗四塊就已經飽到食唔落，要外賣拎走最後仲要埋個肉醬千層麵，又係好大份，上面有融融地嘅芝士，有拉斯嘅效果，好食得來又好邪惡，同肉醬好配合最後埋單因為有優惠嘅關係，所以每人大約$100左右，仲又食又拎添

我地總共叫左三四樣餸啦咁其實最抵食推介呢就係就係佢嘅分享拼盤啦只係$280，但好多樣唔同嘅combo啦佢有呢個墨西哥薄餅啦墨西哥夾餅，焗芝士玉米卷咁你呢三樣嘢你哋分別都可以揀想要嘅肉，入面嘅咁有牛肉，雞肉，有着手撕豬肉，都好食嘅.但係最好食呢就係佢嗰個芝士漢堡burger佢牛肉真係好正而且佢係迷你型嘅變咗你咁多人一齊share都得，但一個人食晒三個都係可以啊我其實忍唔住呢想食晒三個呢，佢個牛肉好Juice好新鮮，佢啱啱整出來，咬落去啲汁係會跌出嚟.另外呢間餐廳入面環境氣氛都幾好可能我哋係大概兩三點入去，冇咩人，waitress 就係外國人嚟嘅講英文.餐廳播着啲比較relaxing嘅音樂嘅.咁我哋每人都叫咗啲嘢飲.飲品來講呢就唔算太抵飲，咗佢個杯都比較細，味道都冇話太特別正正常常啦.

間唔中唔知食咩嘅時候，都會開個apps睇下邊度有半價就去食啦。當然半價餐廳唔係時時有㗎啦，繁忙時間基本都係冇呢排發現咗Cali max , 週不時推出半價wor,繁忙時段都有, 可能墨西哥 菜喺香港唔係太受歡迎.所以想多啲人幫襯所以就減價喇飯卷本身諗住求其食啲嘢就算，點知嗌咗個捲飯兩個人一齊食都差唔多用咗九個字先食完，呢一個飯卷實在太多材料， 外層薄餅卷得厚厚實實， 飯同醬料，蔬菜黑豆牛油，果醬沙律，牛肉， 每一啖咬落去都要慢慢咀嚼，先至可以將食物吞落肚由於太大捲同好多醬汁，每一次都要大口咬落去又要好小心唔好俾啲汁流出嚟味道係非常豐富仲要非常非常之飽肚😍😍墨西哥脆片呢度嘅墨西哥脆片有別於其他做法，呢度嘅脆片係軟綿綿好似 ，薄餅咁樣一個架上面有三份， 每一份都係份量十足，冇偷工減料, 再配上佢哋獨有嘅墨西哥醬 so yummy呢度每一個座位上面都有個自助啤酒機，多想飲同店員講咁就可以飲㗎啦飲品方面就不過不失啦

平安夜🎅周圍都貴到呢，不過，好彩仲有呢間價錢同質素都成正比既墨西哥菜比我地兩個喺有外國風情既餐廳食撐枱腳！而且佢離上環地鐵出口只喺30秒距離😍我就order左一個蘋果source既三文魚扒，好味，好清新，未試過呢個搭配，而且三文魚扒伴有好多芒果粒，食完真喺覺得非常感動🤪😛我朋友就叫左14oz既rib eye扒，佢要mediu rare,我試左覺得非常十分juicy! 份量十足！ 我本身少食牛扒，但都覺好好食。!是日晚餐十分滿意，下次都會再encore

呢間餐廳個第一感覺係-嘈。唔知點解坐喺度飲杯啤酒食吓嘢，冇舞池但啲音樂聲浪同喺ＤＩＣＳＣＯ無異。坐咗一個鐘已頂唔順賣單走人。呢度第一杯啤酒係由吧台倒出嚟，之後你可以用枱上部機，飲幾多倒幾多，價錢ＰＥＲ　ＭＬ計，可以滿足想飲多少少但又唔想要哂成杯ＧＥ人～今晚叫咗個牛扒加蛋，食物質素中上，ＳＵＮＮＹ　ＥＧＧＳ煎得好靚，上面那片煙肉整得太乾太硬唔好食。塊牛扒係ＭＥＤＩＵＭ兼有牛味～個牛油果醬超香，比ＳＯＵＲ　ＣＲＥＡＭ正好多，忍唔住齋啪哂。

近日想食下墨西哥快餐。呢間比較多分店又食過，就搵間附近嫁啦！例牌一定要叫 Buritto. 通常會叫牛或者雞, 但又想試下魚 （比較少見）。最後都係要番例牌。佢會比埋個醬同青檸。如果想share可以叫佢切一半。我食之前通常會加青檸、 冇咁滯。我鐘意去呢間係因為佢之次次水準一樣, 今次都係, 冇失望！ 個 Buritto 唔會太乾身， 又唔太多水~再叫左個菠菜芝士dip. 喺美國最鐘意食呢個。可惜, 味道唔錯但水咗啲。食呢啲一定要配番標杯啤酒。呢度可以揀自助啤酒玩下。

今日約咗個朋友喺上環食飯 由於要就佢搭地鐵過嚟所以揀咗一間非常近地鐵站嘅餐廳 呢間餐廳去墨西哥主題嘅， 喺外國讀書嗰段時間我成日都食墨西哥菜今次都懷住期待嘅心情去食。Set lunch有6項選擇，不過我地對main menu嘅菜式比較有興趣，睇相覺得幾吸引。我哋叫咗一客 burrito 同 一客 quesadillas。Quesadillas 好好食，個皮小小脆脆地，幾香口，fillings 味道適中，好惹味。不過冇左Mexican嘅spicy，美中不足。Burrito我麻麻地中意，太似飯團，味道亦唔惹味。

裝修得好有格調嘅餐廳，播住音樂好有氣氛。啲嘢食唔錯，只係出菜都幾慢下，明明都只係2 3圍枱，但都要等好一段時間。嗌左個烤雞薄餅，出奇地正，脆脆地嘅外皮好好食，入面有芝士加晒分，啲雞肉唔怕柴，配埋上面嘅牛油果蕃茄醬更加正，口感又多啲層次。肉眼扒同龍蝦不過不失，而魚柳好值得一提，彈牙得嚟又好滑，正，之後個黑松露薯條都好正，值得一試。apple crumble係幾正，但carrot cake太甜，嗌之前要諗清楚。總體而言都尚好。

Post renovations, it looked more restaurant-esque, less fast food like. Having not eaten Mexican food for a while, I had to give Cali Mex a shot.So while it was similar, there were a lot of differences.Guacamole – good, but not a default part of the vegetarian bowl, and hence the add-up cost.Fixings – you could choose either beans or vegetables, not both, unlike Chipotle where fajitas were always an option to be added along with the beans. I’m not sure if I could add them all.Same about salsas,
