During weekday lunch times at work, I really dislike sitting in packed chinese restaurants or cha chaan teng. I like a relaxed pub / bar environment scene like back home in New Zealand 🇳🇿 In Long Ping I found a place I like which is similar, serving British / Italian style food, but it faces a highway and the MTR viaduct, although convenient to Long Ping MTR station. They have a set lunch menu for $90 which includes a soup of the day, a main, dessert and a drink. My colleague and I ordered the
They have a set lunch menu for $90 which includes a soup of the day, a main, dessert and a drink. My colleague and I ordered the chicken burger and carbonara. The environment was so relaxed we forget the fact we were never served our soups 😂
To be honest, the mains are mediocre and I guess the soup would be as well so missing out on the soup might have been a blessing. The chicken burger buns were not fresh and reheated from frozen, which is why they are wrinkled, the chicken fillet has a crispy coating that has a light spice with thigh meat inside. I’m always told coating and spicing a meat, you are trying to hide 🙈 something! The slaw, lettuce and tomato are fresh and there is a generous portion of French fries. The carbonara portion is small, and again the taste is mediocre, however it fills the stomach from it’s creamy sauce. In my opinion, $90 might be slightly over priced for these two meals. For the drinks you are able to select the usual hot or cold teas and coffees and soft drinks. The meal ends with a scoop of ice cream in a cup which happened to be vanilla flavor on the day we dined.
Overall, ambience suits me, food is mediocre, but the manager and staff try their best and I’d go again. But don’t have high expectations.
