Maya (已結業)

吃過晚飯後，我們到灣仔酒吧街一帶飲番杯。選酒吧都是以氣氛為主，然後就是坐位的佈局和環境，食物和飲品的味道都比較次要。我喜歡清吧或是有註場樂隊但不太吵耳的酒吧，劈場還是留給年青人吧。去了幾家都是比較像餐廳，大大的枱，矮矮的凳，還要坐在桌子的兩旁，在強勁的音樂下應該也比較難說話。最後我們選了一間可以對角坐，又是梳化高椅，很酒吧格局的Maya.我們二人也看中Cookies and cream. 由Bailey's, vanilla syrup, cream and oreo cookies 組成。還有大大的忌廉在酒面，好咖啡感覺。我末見過這種雞尾酒，Baileys 調的只見過shooters, 友人見多識廣又有調酒師牌，說其實這也是常見的雞尾酒種類，只是不多酒吧有。這酒甜甜的，酒精度不高，樣子漂亮，很適合女孩子。也沒理由叫2杯一樣的，由於我說過未試過白酒的 Sangria, 所以友人點了一杯 Maya's Sangria, white wine，給我試一點。和我自家製的 Sangria 一樣，基本的有士多啤梨和檸檬, 但其他的材料就多了青檸和白蘭地。因為我家沒有白蘭地，所以自家製時沒有加。M

試左個SET LUNCH, 有3個COURSE, 先黎一個泰式沙律配蒜蓉包. 蒜蓉包不錯, 但沙律一般. 主菜叩左個蜆肉意粉, 賣相比較簡單, 如不加配菜, 可換上有特色的容器會好一點. 意粉味道一般, 但意粉的乾濕度及口感不錯. 甜品CREAM BULEE 甜了少許.

This is the cheapest Christmas lunch I have had so far, but not that British, firstly the starter was quite oriental, containing sugarly sweet papaya.Then the mains came with baby sweetcorn too.I get annoyed when I order TEA and they ask if I want it with Lemon or Milk, because then the whole place dosnt feel that British, and tea is with milk traditionally.Anyway, just another option for people I guess.Overall, it was turkey roll with dates, gravy, broccoli, cauliflower, half baked/boiled potat

日期：2008年11月19日相約同事午餐，佢帶我去一間bar度食，地方有ｄ黑，始終都係飲酒食煙既地方，野食都唔係太ok．叫左3 course HK$68, 4 course HK$78，有salad, soup, first course and dessert我就唔要salad，蒜容包－好硬．要左cream soup－都好creamy下．印度咖哩雞飯：食既時候唔太辣，慢慢係喉嚨度辣上黎，好唔舒服．baked egg pudding：唔太甜，唔錯．熱奶茶：味道麻麻地．同事食既tuna salad，ok la.

在openrice看到灣仔有很多餐廳cafe都令人躍躍欲試,因為天雨關係,不想在大雨下尋尋覓覓,所以去了駱克道的MAYA,感覺很酒吧,但午市也有lunch set 提供,選了3 course($68),首先上蒜蓉包,餐湯,沙律,沙律很開胃,餐湯也不過不失,主菜我選了薯蓉焗肉醬,男友選了三文魚。兩者味道皆不俗,不是求其之作。可惜我與男友都是食量偏多的人,因此這個3 course吃完也不覺飽,這裡的lunch set如果女士吃應該很足夠,但男士郤很可能不夠充飢。不過裝潢漂亮,不收加一,挽回一點點分數。我想下次不是天雨的關係,應該不會故意再來了。

From the streets of wanchai, it stands out amongst the standard pubs; being decorated in black white, almost leopard like pattern.However the name Maya and the font used, made it look Aztec style, like indiana jones in the lost temple.After entering, it was a rather modern furnished place, further to the back, there were plush sofa's where people can sit in a circle.Anyway lets talk about the foodrdered fish in creamy white sauce as the main dish, and cottage pie.Both were four courses, so we we

soup-the color was between pink and orange, quite creamy, and thick. the taste was fresh.toast- french bread baked with buttersalad-should be a greek salad. with red chili, onion, cheese, veggie, the sauce was quite light!main course (either fish and chips or lasagna) tried both. the fried fish was not that good. the fish was not fresh, and the crispy part was too thick and a little bitter in taste. couldn't taste of the potato when eating the fries.the lasagna was better! the sause is not thick

20Jun2007 1253原本諗住去Al Dente，點知full booking，唯有諗定後路，想食爛鬼西餐又唔想行咁遠，係駱克道及謝斐道打滾一陣，終於在這裡落地生根，但求安靜地有餐飯落下肚。這裡係典型的一間bar，午飯時間會比較靜，夜晚應該回覆正常。午巿有4道菜，而只有主菜係有得選擇，由於我不太好湯(Clam Crowder 週打蜆湯)，只選擇了3道。頭盤為Tuna Niscons Salad，除左吞拿魚外，還有烚蛋、蕃茄、檻欖粒、薯仔粒及菜，再配白醋，侍應問需要黑椒與否，我當然唔會放過，味道中規中矩，醋及黑椒粒份量剛好沾染其他食材，令到開胃已經完成它的歷史任務；沒有湯，但仍有兩塊牛油香草蒜蓉麵包，新鮮熱辣仆仆脆，非常好味。主菜可以選擇印度咖喱雞飯或燉牛肉配牛油麵(Beef Bourguignon With Buttered Noodles)，我緊係選擇後者啦。這道菜還有一舊西蘭花、椰菜花、紅蘿蔔及一條粟米仔為伴菜，Beef Bourguignon是法國傳統一道菜式，將各種蔬菜、香草、煙肉及紅酒配合牛肉一齊燉。喜出望外的好入味，還食到酒味，肉質地好嫩滑，雖不是驚天動地鬼泣神號，但

話說星期二晚，再訪灣仔駱克道，事緣星期日意猶未盡。首站是maya，時為7 時15 分左右，已過了眾多酒吧的crazy hour，只有happy hour。此店燈光偏暗，但裝修型格十足。點了edelweisse 和murrphy，不消30 秒，侍應即端來，看著murphy 的泡抹緩緩地上升，心暗不妙，這間酒吧的拉酒技術認真求其是但，泡沫入口粗糙，入口一點也不順滑，差勁；edelweisse 帶微微的果香，有點似hoegaarden，但男友說似冇糖忌廉，酒味欠奉，所以只飲了一round 便走人，因為實在不掂！

呢度lunch 分3 courses or 4 courses.3 courses 已包soup, salad, main and t/c. $684 courses 包埋dessert of the day. $78soup 係potato & leek soup幾creamy 好味，我一向都唔試呢個soup, 但係呢度soup 同salad comes in a set dish, 即係一個大碟上有兩個小兜兜，一兜係湯一兜係沙律。所以無得揀。salad 係thai beef salad，個thai dressing 辣辣地，幾開胃，唔錯。菜方面有rocket, romainene, 好爽脆。main我選了salmon fillet with cream sauce。salmon 好薄片，略煎，好香軟，配上cream sauce, mashed potato, 好好味。呢度唔要tea or coffee, 可以要softdrinks instead.呢度整體裝修以黑紅為主，幾stylish.
