Wasn’t planning on visiting this place, but the other 2 popular cafes on the same street were extremely packed so we decided to try this place out to skip the queues. Though it’s now apparent why this cafe has seats 😅Pic 1️⃣: All Day Breakfast - $98 hkd 🍳 — A super colourful and nicely presented plate but the portion size and taste was slightly disappointing 😔 Just look at how tiny the sourdough slices are!!

Pic 1️⃣: All Day Breakfast - $98 hkd 🍳
— A super colourful and nicely presented plate but the portion size and taste was slightly disappointing 😔 Just look at how tiny the sourdough slices are!! They were literally the size of crackers and barely toasted. The scrambled eggs were overcooked and not very smooth, not to mention there was no seasoning in the eggs at all. The mushrooms were slightly more flavourful, but unfortunately a bit undercooked, meaning they were quite hard. Best thing on here was probably the sausage which had a strong garlic flavour to it. It was also the most savoury element of the dish. Overall quite a disappointing all day breakfast for the price.
Pic 2️⃣: Onsen-tamago Carbonara - $108 hkd 🍝
— This took forever to come...🥱 waited almost 30 minutes for this very average pasta dish to arrive. Also was slightly disappointed that they had run out of spaghetti and had to substitute it with penne instead. Taste wise this was alright, first couple of bites you get a really strong cheese flavour but it’s a bit overwhelming and makes the dish quite dense. The sauce was so watery and I’ve never had carbonara with sauce that literally drips 😅. There was also barely any bacon in this, making the dish lack aroma and flavour in general. Among the few tiny pieces of bacon in this, they were also not pan fried at all and just simply mixed in. The presentation and taste of the onsen egg could be improved, as I could taste the vinegar in the egg white which wasn’t great. I really expected more from this dish which took so long to arrive.
📍Ambiance: good for work, bright interior, certain staff members need to work on their manners, and there also seems to be some miscommunication between staff - one person tells you to do this whilst the other tells you otherwise 🤔
⭐️Will not be visiting again unfortunately
