Have been procrastinating in giving my review of this restaurant and finally gathered thoughts at this visit in T8 day.

My first visit to its sister restaurant, ABC, was more than 6 months ago. I didn't know what to expect as I literally found nothing about this cozy cafe back then. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food, the friendliness of its owner, the neighbourhood vibes and good price. Unfortunately, ABC, didn't open at night, so I only managed to go at weekends.

I was thoroughly thrilled when I learnt that abc is launching its sister restaurant, DE, that opens from dusk and dawn, right across the street. N I was not disappointed.

DE maintains the high quality food and good neighbour vibes of ABC, only better I'd say. The source of food is very fresh, and of exceedingly good quality you can ask for this price range. They never use MSG or any nasty chemical but they manage to still season their food well. My personal favourite is their home made fish soup and tomato soup. As far as I can tell, they use salmon and chicken to make the fish soup, and they use this fish soup as base notes for their tomato soup.

The selection of food is quite wide, from home made soup with rice, spaghetti, steak, roasted chicken, burger, pizza to waffles. I have tried most of them, and has never been disappointed.

They make decent drinks too. It's not hard to tell from the name of ABC, Asian beats coffee. I am not really a big coffee lover, so I refrain from commenting. They make good green tea latte too. They use Kyoto green tea powder and they use this goodie generously.

One thing they may work on is the combination of food. Personally I would like to see more combinations on the food they already had (e.g. From (i) mushroom spaghetti and (ii) chicken spaghetti to (iii) mushroom and chicken spaghetti)

DE is slowly becoming my second home, and I would like to recommend this place to fellow neighbours of Ho Man Tin and visitors alike!
