 Our lunch-set-inclusive soup and bread were the first items to come and they came hot, which was nice.

 In the moment of silence while we absorbed the restaurant-front décor, we pushed through the door and found ourselves amazed by how vast and vibrant it was behind. We were received warmly and brought to a table with cute chairs. The restaurant had a colorful, themed interior with plenty of LED lights and forest decorations resembling its entrance sign. Tables were filled with crowds of family and loving couples. For a second-floored restaurant, this one sure is magical enough to capture a bunch of energetic food-lovers. The menu was simple enough to understand yet held a large variety of cuisine ranging from American baby back ribs to French escargots. We ordered a Baked Lobster with Cheese and Butter Rice ($108) and a Braised Ox-tail in Red Wine Sauce ($78) for our mains with hot Rose Bud Tea for both meals.

 As soon as we finished our soup and bread, our Braised Ox-Tail in Red Wine Sauce arrived right after its appetizing aroma. The Ox-Tail slices were extraordinarily tender and were drenched in a soup of glistening gravy. It was a hearty and nice combination and would be even greater if the red wine sauce was accentuated more.

 The long awaited Baked Lobster with Cheese and Butter Rice dish came half way through our braised ox-tail dish and it was pleasant to the eyes. They were very generous with the cheese sauce and more importantly the size of the lobster. The lobster meat was tender and adequately seasoned in a salt bath prior to being covered in a rich and flavorful cheese sauce. The side of vegetables was stewed nicely till tender as well and tasted extraordinarily with the fragrant butter rice.

If you are looking for that magical little something sweet to end your meal, Caramel Mango Cheese Cake ($36) and the Vanilla and Bitter Chocolate Cheese Cake ($36) are the ones you should go for.

 With an interesting combination as this, it sure doesn’t disappoint. The refreshing contrast of sweet caramel and sour mango on the cake surface makes a perfect transition as you spoon deeper into the soft and moist cheesecake within. The constant switch of tastes creates an ever mind-blowing journey for your taste buds. As you are relishing the tropical mango flavor, a wave of candied caramel goodness washes your senses for a refreshed experience. Yes, it is that good.

 Having experienced such extreme taste battles with the Caramel Mango Cheese Cake, it was perfect for a modest piece of vanilla cake to calm yourself down. The cheese cake had a dense and rich texture to it and it allowed one to slowly distinguish the twirls of dark chocolate within the vanilla cake. Those who have time as a luxury would find this cake the best companion as you dive into your novel in a long summer afternoon.

Coming to this hidden candy house, the Hanzel and Gretel that live inside our tummies were enslaved by the witch that is the delicious food here at Mage’s Kitchen. Overall, the restaurant had a friendly and comfortable seating environment, very filling and hearty main courses in large portions, and extremely memorable cheesecakes that we would recommend to anyone anytime. If you desire to explore a concrete forest, Kwun Tong is the place to be, and I hope you run into Mage’s Kitchen for a magical experience.
