磅太太 (Closed)

My friend said: "When we are getting old, way past the teenage age, you dont feel like a massive party on your party. The most important thing is who do you spend it with."Well... I only partially agree. It wont be memorable if we just have apple pie and Big Mac. haha!After the early dinner celebration at a steak house, we continue the fun at one of the bar that I wanna visit for so long.If you read the paper table mat, then you will know more about the story of Mrs. Pound. Basically about a bea

I walked by Mrs Pound yesterday, and though it was a pretty interesting shop. The outside is  made out to be like a  stamp shop, whilst the inside is a proper restaurant.  All I have to say is that it was  the worst decision I've made in a very long time. For the quality and quantity of food served, it was highly overpriced and it  did not taste good.  In other words, I completely DO NOT RECOMMEND this restaurant. The food selection is poor (only 4 a la carte options for lunch, and no set lunch)

與同事外出午餐，本身打算食太平山街的科記，怎知門外大排長龍，見到科記轉角位前的磅巷有食肆的午餐牌，突然改變主意。從外面看，那裡是食肆?推門進去，原來別有洞天，裡面是舊香港feel裝潢的酒吧。餐牌上的大都是東南亞菜式通常牛油果都是一片片或牛油果茸，炸的從未試過。口感外脆內軟，有新鮮感。Beetroot & Spinach 紅菜頭加菠菜，還有橙及核桃，顏色豐富，賣相很吸引，味道亦很不錯，食材新鮮。紅菜頭的汁本身已是很好的調味，所以加少許醋已經夠味。Indonesian Rendang其實是牛肉飯，汁帶點辣很惹味開胃。點了杯 cappuccino, 很平衡，比連鎖的出色。感覺上餐廳主要是做外國人生意，食物都是西式化的東南亞菜，整體不錯，早放工的話可來 happy hour 一下。

Great venue. Amazin. The most disappointing part of the night was the food. We ordered the avocado fries and they were really great so we were excited about things to come.  We ordered the Thai pesto pasta - nothing special. Something that cold have been made at home out of a jar. Next came the wagu fried rice. It was ok. Just ok. For over $200 for fried rice that came in a tiny bowl that tasted just ok, disappointment is an understatement. We decided to splurge on the Crab Mac and and Cheese wh

今日同媽子去攝太歲⋯行經附近又見到呢間疑似印章舖頭！從來無諗過原來係餐廳～點知媽媽過之前上網見過人介紹呢間舖頭～原來係一間餐廳！就係咁⋯帶住好奇心既我地就決定入去食返個lunch😂入到去見到個環境覺得好得意...好懷舊但又有種唔識形容既感覺😏我地2個人～點左2樣野食同2杯咖啡呢個雞肉既3文治～麵包烘過...香脆熱辣辣，而雞肉juicy再加埋個醬汁同配菜...好味！仲有個羊肉炒飯～勁香⋯而且飯係乾身粒粒分明～比預期好食⋯而且佢跟左個青bb既醬～用黎點羊肉or撈飯食都得...係有香料同辣辣地～正😍咖啡我就叫左cappuccino~個泡勁高🤣呢餐好滿足！野食方面唔錯～係杯咖啡爭小小～如果唔係就完美了～

One of the most disappointing dining experience in Hong Kong. The staff asked us to change seat to allow a bigger group to sit together. So we moved seat and asked for a take away box because we basically did not eat one of the dishes we ordered at all. So we moved seat and asked for the bill. And we found out that the staff threw away our food. I understand that the background music was loud and probably she was busy and did not hear. But it's her attitude that turned us off. No apologise at al

之前睇電視介紹過，今日唔打唔撞行到呢到，咁啱有對情侶行過，女嘅問間鋪咁得意嘅？男嘅話做印章㗎？聽到馬上望吓，即刻話比對情侶知係餐廳黎，講完就忍唔住入去試吓。入內見到裝修有點外國mix中國風，初初以為全部竹星員工，就用咗有限到嘅英文溝通，跟住店員都頂唔係順我d難英文，問我係咪香港人，之後就好開心咁同我講返中文。唔係太肚餓，問店員有冇好介紹，佢就推介我試炸牛油果，外脆內軟，口感非常好，配上貌似千島醬，但有點少少辣，帶出牛油果嘅香味。食到最後見到有少少油，同店員傾完之後先知原來係糖漿。再叫咗杯berry ginger (唔知有冇記錯名), mix咗士多啤尼，藍莓，薑啤，仲有一樣唔係咩。入口清新，又唔係成杯個汁樣，真係會忍唔住再叫杯。

Literally love this place. The friendly staff, the variety of food. I've been here a few times, and the food is just really good.Expect fusion between Asian and Western. The quality of products used are good, so no matter what kitchen, it'll be fine. My personal favourites are the redang poutine fries, lemongrass pork balls and the pork neck. Good cocktails, great place for a night out with friends. 

Beef Bourguignon Banh MiBeef Bourguignon - Beef Short Rib / Rib, bacon, bouquet garni, onions, olive oil, Burgundy wine,oyster sauceBanh Mi – Chicken Liver Pate, baguette, pickled carrots, cucumber, chilli,cilantroHK$120After my failed first attempt to join The Ultimate Sandwich competition, I made a second go at Mrs. Pound.

最近吹什麼風？說的並非秋風冬風，而是食物風潮。香港最常見的現象就是一窩蜂，一窩蜂去旅行，一窩蜂去吃喝，一窩蜂去購物。總而言之，近來時興的就要去趁熱鬧，雖然其他國家也會有如此情況。但是香港人反應就似乎是較為熱切及即時，也許要數香港媒體電訊的普及吧。　　在灣仔小巷之中，靜靜起革命，這晚以後，又要掀起一股新風潮。選址Bread & Beast，Crave Magazine、網上外賣平台及The Forks & Spoons主辦。讓我們投票選出Ultimate Sandwich的一個活動正如火如荼地進行中。八家精選餐廳呈現獨特新意，將由小吃到大的三文治改頭換面，到底又可以得出什麼花樣？（參賽餐廳將於九月十二至十月十日期間供應各款特色三文治）Beef Bourguignon Banh Mi　$120　　越式法包的創意，夾餡為法式燉牛肋肉，吃起來鹹中帶陣陣溫和香料香氣。入口細綿濕潤，有少許像肉燥，配有醃蘿蔔絲及青瓜絲等，挽回點清新。法包要抹有越式雞肝醬，添上油脂甜香，味道不會單調。

明記印鑑的舊式情懷作門面，磅巷名稱的港式調調作店名。人不可貌面，店也不可只看外在，磅太太Mrs. Pound可是跟想像的不同。沒有多加探究店家背後的故事，只知道這兒有我喜歡的東南亞菜式。而且閱過餐牌，並非古老俗套，處處有新意，何以不一嚐滋味？　　富有特色的內部裝潢，一邊展示舊時代特色的物品，一邊則是重現代感的酒吧餐廳。下午茶時段到來，其實在店方而言是Bloody Mary Bar時間（平日五至八時的是Hours of Happiness，星期六日則有十二至六的此時段）。主菜大盤現在沒供應，不過剛好我們也只是想吃一點小食而已。　　難得一見的Avocado Fries　$88，我想香港就只有Mrs. Pound供應。其實有吃過牛油果的人也會知道熟牛油果是怎樣的奶感細滑，同時軟腍得難以處理。要是未太熟，卻又韌實似橡膠，要脆炸也很難裹粉。因為困難，所以少見，亦成了磅太太的獨家小吃，我們也是為此而來。　　炸得香脆，略有泛油，不過都不管了，反正除了這家也沒有其他Alternatives。然後會發現牛油果是剛好熟的腍度，味香細潤。外面澆了少許蜜糖或糖漿，神來之筆，讓牛油果條變得香甜蜜美，教人愛不釋手

Hiding inconspicuously behind a Chinese stamp shop along Sheung Wan‘s Pound Lane, that is Mrs. Pound consists of tall chairs at the bar, neon signage, movie star mirrors hanging up high and make-up compacts, silver chopsticks on the fuchsia wall. It can be easily missed out. The menu takes a playful twist on Asian street food with influences coming from Thai, Italian and Korean etc., inspired by the backstory of Mrs. Pound the owner. During the late afternoon, the restaurant serves only small di

I will only be reviewing about the drinks. The host told us to just shove our way in to the bar and order from the bartenders. I would expect that from a dive bar, but not a 'speakeasy' restaurant/bar. The theme is awesome and fun, but the main door was probably the highlight of the experience.After getting a spot at the bar, looked the at drink menu and quickly ordered our drinks. The drink menu is pretty cool. They have a lot of specialty spirits and craft cocktails. I ordered the Hemingway an

Let me preface this by saying that in 9 years of living in Hong Kong and eating out 3-4 times a week, I never had a reason to join Open Rice and leave a review. Until I came here. I was curious to know how a restaurant as trendy as Mrs Pound could be half empty for dinner. Then I understood. The secret entrance is very cool and to be honest, sets the expectations for a very cool place indoors. The decor? Fun. The food? Completely overpriced and quality was poor compared to any dai pai dong on th

呢間舖頭其實唔算易揾，放完工行上行落終於到了佢最出名既門口～揾左30秒再睇埋open rice 先知個制係門口旁邊！好傻仔！根據故事，呢間野就係明哥收埋塝太太既地方！入面裝修好花心思，雖然坐位比較窄d～兩個人食叫左四様1·西瓜豬頸肉沙拉：好吃！酸酸甜甜，每種材料都配合得好！2·和牛石頭鍋飯：哇不得了！必叫！一d都唔乾，d牛一食落，就知好野。3·紅莓牛扒：相比之下，呢道菜算係遜色了！因為佢林身有少少咬唔開。但配上紅莓ᐯEᖇY ᖴᖇEᔕᕼ!4·喇沙青口：同行既朋友對此讚不絕口！喇沙好吃！還有粉絲，豆腐，菇！正！青口反而不太特別。5·最後本杯特飲！nice ending!P.s 全英文menu~ 價錢稍貴～
