"Gourmet Monday" is an event that is much looked forward to but it seems that our plans are always foiled by the lunch hour crowd. Once again, our original choice was way too packed and Plan B was adopted. We walked into the half-empty (or should I say half-full) cafe on a busy Monday lunch hour in Wanchai, certainly very peaceful. The decor is simple, utilitarian but by no means uncomfortable.

We walked into the half-empty (or should I say half-full) cafe on a busy Monday lunch hour in Wanchai, certainly very peaceful. The decor is simple, utilitarian but by no means uncomfortable. In fact, I would imagine it to be a nice place to drop by for a coffee and a quiet read when a respite from the hustle and bustle of everyday life is needed.
Why I forgot World Peace Cafe was a vegetarian restaurant I had no idea... too hungry perhaps... The gang (especially the carnivorous gang leader) was a little unsettled by the vegetarian menu but all were game for a change in diet, hey, worst comes to the worst, we could order afternoon tea - yay! More food!
Ok, back to the menu which was a little complicated but nothing the friendly and patient waitress could not enlighten. Here's what we had:
Appetiser / Soup
Main dish
Tea / Coffee
We all looked forward to the tea/ coffee that was included in the set lunch. There was a wide variety and some sounded really interesting. Locust 3 and I had some energising tea which came in teabags, oh well... The Indian Chai was ok. The prettiest and most delish of all was the soy milk with rose petals. Smooth and delicately flavoured with a nice foam on top.
