Many chefs have tried to be inventive with American food. Sadly, many have failed miserably because the best American dishes should be served plain and simple. I know because I am from San Francisco. There is no need to use Kobe Beef for a hamburger when it is best to use the right mixture of chuck and sirloin. And what a waste to drench truffle oil on french fries because it's best with sea salt and ketchup. Although I do think that best fries are twice deep fried with duck fat.With that said, I was introduced to Lazy Hog by my dearest friend and this place is simply amazing. They have successfully re-invented American casual favorites by using premium and fresh ingredients, and layer after layer of sophisticated flavor that have been carefully executed per excellence. Unlike some restaurants, Lazy Hog is unpretentious with friendly and well trained staff. It is a fun place to hang out with friends.Lazy Hog is a must try.

Dined at Lazy Hog because of the black egg!Lazy Hog is located on Bridges Street.Here was what I had:★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Pineapple lime:It was a pineapple steak at the bottom with pineapple carpaccio slices on top drizzled with lime juice and fine lime peel shavings.This was very refreshing to start off with especially with the tangy lime juice and juicy pineapple.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Squid ink egg salad:It had a great presentation and definitely worth ordering.The egg was BLACK and looked like a black burrata.However I was slightly disappointed that it was solid all the way through because there was meant to be liquid oozing out from the middle as shown on the previous review.It would be great if it had liquid vibrant orange yolk in the middle or something runny to mix with the salad leaves.Although it did not have a runny centre, it tasted so amazing with a strong squid ink taste.When I eat squid, the taste is similar to egg white so when delicate egg white was infused with squid ink, the taste and texture was divine.The pieces of toasted bread were nice but a little too crispy.As an alternative I would not mind having soft pieces of squid ink bread instead.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Digital bill:They also give you a printed receipt as well and I kept the change because one of the fifty cent coins was a really old one.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★◎ⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓖⓘⓡⓛ◎The bill: $194Service: OKService charge: yesYummy factor: okToilets: yesGlass of water provided: yesEnglish Menu: YesAir Conditioning: YesMusic Levels: Yes◎ⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓖⓘⓡⓛ◎

一直都有留意在必列者士街Oolaa旁空置了一会的铺位。一直都很想知道会开一间什么餐厅。原来开的是一间名叫Lazy Hog的餐厅，Hog是猪的意思，所以这里是"懒猪"。懒猪占了2个分开的铺位，喜欢坐那边就去那边吧。Lazy Hog是由办馆 LOF10的人开的，说是供应新美式菜。I have been paying attention to the unoccupied space near Oolaa on the Bridges Street, wondering what kind of restaurant or cafe would take over there. Well it turned out a new restaurant called Lazy Hog has indeed rented both space. I did a bit of online searching and found out Lazy Hog is opened by the same guys who set up Lof 10, the coffee place. According to its facebook page, Lazy Hog serves New American dishes.我和KK星期六的下午去到，有brunch的menu。不过选择不算多。(后来我拿了晚市的menu来看选择也是很少但每款菜式都很吸引) 我和KK看了一会没有细想及细问就点了菜，是有点儿懒猪，亦因此我们选错了。。。KK and I arrived at Lazy Hog at noon on a Saturday and it was serving brunch food. There weren't much to choose from though. (I also looked at the dinner menu, not many choices again but each dish seems very interesting) We ordered quite quickly without really thinking about what we were ordering, kind of being lazy and we suffered the consequences... (to be elaborated below)Cappuccino - 有办馆 LOF10的背景，这里当然有咖啡，这天的好像是用了什么bluebottlela 咖啡豆。很惭愧，我不是咖啡专家，不懂这些。我只是很肤浅的"觉得"一杯咖啡"好不好喝"，例如会不会太苦，太甜，奶是多或少？又或拉花拉得如何？店员说它们的咖啡会定期从美国入口，所以会定期转。而这杯Cappuccino，我觉得"好喝"，不过热一点会更好。另外，咖啡杯挺大的，还有餐厅的logo懒猪，杯内亦有猪蹄！Cappuccino - Of course one can find coffee here, given the background of Lof 10. I was told that they were using bluebottlela, a kind of coffee beans. But I must apologize that I am not a coffee expert, well, I don't really know much about coffee indeed. I usually (and extremely superficially) would only care about simple issues like if the coffee is too bitter, too sweet, too much/less milk or if the latte art looks pretty. The Cappuccino here "tasted good" to me but would have been even better if it had been hotter. And one thing I must highlight is the mug! It has the logo of Lazy Hog and inside there is a trotter print!Squid Ink Egg Salad (约$120) - 这可是店员大力推介的，上桌时我和KK有2种感觉。第一感觉是哗这蛋真的是黑色的而且看上去很像黑蒜！还有同是墨汁的toast作为croutons。第二感觉是哗只有蛋及菜好小的一碟非常清寡。Squid Ink Egg Salad (about $120) - This was highly recommended by the staff. When it got on our table, KK and I were thinking (1) wow this egg is really black and looks like those Korean black garlic! And there were squid ink croutons! (2) wow there are really only egg and "leaves" and it looks really small!先把蛋切开，中间的墨汁涌了出来，场面颇为壮观。究竟是如何煮成的？？？把墨汁混到菜上便可以吃了。蛋吃不出蛋黄而吃到了蛋白的质地。墨汁有咸味，与菜同吃刚好。墨汁croutons烘的很脆，沙律菜不算太新鲜但都还可以。如果可以用上其他的沙律菜或用数款不同的沙律菜可能会更好。120元值不值？就著那只像黑蒜又会涌出墨汁的蛋，我认为值。Then we cut the egg open and were truly amazed to see the squid ink burst out from the egg. How was it cooked??? We let the ink mix with the greens and started to have a taste. I couldn't taste any egg yolk and the squid ink was a bit on the salty side. But it's about right mixing it with the veggies. The croutons were crunchy and the vegetable leaves were ok, albeit would have been great if they had been fresher or if different types of vegetables had been used. Is this salad worth $120? Umm, in view of the garlic-like squid ink egg, I think so.Cheese Green Omelette (约$90-100) - 是不是有点像大家的妈妈或茶餐厅会见到的煎蛋呢。不过懒猪收了我接近百元。。。见到真的有被骗的感觉。店员说本来应该有rocket salad伴碟，但那天没有rocket。但即使多了一些salad，这也不会值100元。而且没salad，怎么不给一两片面包，或把价钱调低呢。坦白说，我是没有太吃到芝士的味道，而且那个"Green"，好像是葱之类的，真的有够无语。故事的教训是不要lazy，要问清楚你点的是什么，要勤力地去了解餐牌，就可避免Cheese Green Omelette这个情况。Cheese Green Omelette (about $90-100) - Does it just look so much like the fried egg your mum does at home or you get from a Cha Chaan Teng? This lazy dish costs about 100 dollars... We were told the omelette was supposed to come with rocket salad on the side but they didn't have rocket that day. But I don't think the omelette would worth $100 even with the salad. Besides, if you don't have salad, how about getting a toast or two, or just lower the price? Taste-wise, I couldn't really find the taste of the cheese and the "green" on the menu was just something like scallion. We were rendered speechless at that point. The moral of the story is don't be lazy. Be diligent in understanding what you are ordering to avoid the omelette situation.其实店员还真的是很踊跃很热情。他亦表示其实现阶段还在fine tune餐牌。Um，最好是吧，把那小家子气的omelette fine tune一下。虽然Omelette是个伏，但我对Lazy Hog的印象还不差。我也看到其他台的食物好像比较吸引。所以说呢，找吃的不能懒，勤劳的去研究餐牌才是皇道。I must say the staff were really enthusiastic and said they are still fine-tuning the menu. Well please fine-tune the omelette... Despite the omelette situation, my impression towards Lazy Hog is quite good and the dishes on other customers' table did look very delicious. Therefore, next time I am here, I will definitely not be lazy in studying the menu.
