We were out visiting the Sunday farmer's market in Quarry Bay (not worth it) and decided to stop here for lunch.

My wife got a burger, medium. I had a few bites and it tasted pretty good. The egg on it was very runny and it soaked the bun and ran out the back of the burger.

Other Info. :
The meal was about $450 for both of us, with two beers.
