Came to Sift since after eating dinner on Hollywood road with a few friends. Honestly, I've always just done takeout at their store in Wanchai and never actually sat down at their Central restaurant. Environment - It was pouring tonight so everyone had to sit inside (looks like they might have outside seating out back). If you are not sitting at the bar the place is actually pretty cramped. When the 4 of us first got there there were no seats available so we waited 3-5 minutes inside (rain outsi
Environment - It was pouring tonight so everyone had to sit inside (looks like they might have outside seating out back). If you are not sitting at the bar the place is actually pretty cramped. When the 4 of us first got there there were no seats available so we waited 3-5 minutes inside (rain outside) but we were constantly getting in the way of the waitstaff since there was no room. Place is pretty clean looking but it's a shame the place is so cramped.
Service - It's not bad. The waitstaff wasn't unfriendly but I felt there were a little on the quiet/reserved side. Food did come out quickly and that's always nice.
Honestly, by the time dinner was done I was stuffed. I'm not even sure why I decided to order a chocolate cake...haha.
Sift Chocolate Cake - If you like chocolate this cake is for you. Really rich and full of flavor. I especially like how the chocolate crisps on top that provide an extra dimension to the texture. Really quite awesome and creamy inside. After about 5-6 bites I was stuffed and my friends were happy to devour the rest
My personal opinion is unless the Sift restaurant is relatively empty I still prefer to takeout since I'm not really a big fan of cramped places. I know dai pai dongs (大牌档) are just as cramped but the turnover there (customer wise) is so much quicker while costumers at Sift (or coffee/dessert shops in general) want to sit a while and enjoy themselves. Chocolate cake as always was good.
