Home Economics was once the little restaurant called Home. The food at Home was ok. Not great but ok. But for some unknown reason, it restyled itself and now call itself Home Economics. Why they chose this name is even more bizarre as to me, home economics was a class I detested when I went to school. To this day, I still can't sew a button.

The restaurant now has long wooden tables and chairs and long benches to give it a more work station feel.

Weekday lunch menu was under $100 and included a soup or salad, main and coffee or tea. For iced versions, additonal money is added. This is not noted on the menu but was mentioned by mouth when asked.

Cream of Cauliflower Soup. This was the daily soup. It was pretty good. Creamy and smooth while still having a strong taste of cauliflower. Usually, I'm not a fan of cauliflower soup as most make it bland but this was actually pretty good.

Bread Basket. Bread was pretty tasty. If you are expecting chewy crusts and soft centers, this is not for you. The whole bread was soft and just melted away. I like soft bread so this was great for me. It was also sweet tasting.

Tomato Seafood Risotto ($78). It came in a cute old school Chinese bowl with a picture of a chicken on it. It had various seafood items such as clams, white fish chunks, a mussel and shrimp. It also didn't taste like risotto. It tasted like tomato rice. I have basically given up trying to find a decent risotto that doesn't cost me an arm and a leg here in Hong Kong. So, I kind of expected it to taste like tomato seafood rice. And that's what it tasted like. As a risotto, it kind of failed. But since I wasn't expecting it to  be a true risotto ... it was a pretty ok tasting tomato rice.

Coffee. Ordered the coffee with the lunch set. Coffee was strong enough. Nothing spectacular about it.

I'd probably return. I used to eat at Home every so often. I guess I'll do the same with their new upgrade as I live close enough.
