The Burgerbun - HKD68, a typical looking Cha Siu Bao but was filled with minced beef, lettuce and tomato instead. A cute little bottle of thousand island sauce was served alongside the bun for adding flavour. The bun literally tasted like a burger, I particularly enjoy the juiciness of minced beef.Next comes Foie Gras Xiao Long Bao - HKD130/3pcs, and bewarned, it's jus bursting!

Next comes Foie Gras Xiao Long Bao - HKD130/3pcs, and bewarned, it's jus bursting! The jus was actually foie gras oil excreted from the foie gras during steaming, so it wasn't as pleasant to drink as typical Xiao Long Bao where the jus is soup. I suggest taking the whole piece in one go. The skin was at acceptable thickness, and the filling was bold in flavour. The xiao long bao was delightful to enjoy.
The Truffle Brie - HKD85/3pcs is one of my favourite at Man Mo Cafe. Every bite of this was filled with wonderful truffle and Brie flavours. Both of the flavour was rather mild though, so salt and pepper were definitely needed for this dumpling! The dumpling skin was kept thin and it was pan fried to give a crisp and smokey bottom.
The Kung Fu Creme Brulee - HKD26 was my favourite dessert here at Man Mo Cafe. The extremely crunchy caramelised top was lovely. The King Fu custard was smooth and carried a strong tea flavour which was absolutely addicting. I couldn't stopped myself eating spoons after spoons!
