Pleasantly surprised to discover this quaint little shop that offers high quality/restaurant-worthy Western takeaways (like seafood and homemade pasta) and snacks (I ended up ordering tapas-style) at very reasonable prices (all set dinners are under HKD100, ranging from HKD48 to HKD90 and comes with a free drink and soup if you add HKD8, and snacks range from HKD38 to HKD54) in between Shau Kei Wan and Sai Wan Ho, two districts where residents usually stick to traditional Cha Chan Tengs, BBQ Mea
So tonight, we tried:
(1) Homemade Spaghetti with Prawns and Beef in Port Wine Gravy

Excellent homemade pasta (with beef mixed into it) and two prawns served at the side. Most restaurants/takeaway shops would stick to either beef or prawn and it is really good value to be able to enjoy both along with homemade pasta at this price (HKD85)!
(2) French-Style Sauteed Clams in Butter, Garlic and White Wine Sauce

This is on the snacks menu (HKD48). A classic combination and hardly ever disappoints!

This is also on the snacks menu (HKD54). Generously-sliced ox tongue pan-fried in garlic - simple and delicious. A family favourite on the menu.
(4) Sauteed Mixed Greens in XO Sauce

This is on the snacks menu (HKD44). Not a particularly interesting option, but it offers a healthy portion and variety of greens!
There were seats in the shop where you can sit while you wait. My takeaway was ready after around 15 minutes. Shop attendants were friendly and attentive.
P.S. This shop also offers cheaper options that spells "boring", but I guess that is needed to capture different market sectors in these districts.
