晚上約 09:30,到處找地方晚飯,路過此店,看見有 set dinner,便入內一試。要了 白汁蜆肉三文魚扁意粉 + 酥皮忌廉磨菇湯 + 凍檸水 ($49) (凍飲不用加錢)取了"牌仔" 坐下便有人送到,先來檸水及意粉。意粉是扁意粉,但稍為硬身,不太合我胃口,白汁味道不錯,但蜆肉及三文魚的份量略為少了點。酥皮湯是我差不多吃完意粉才到,酥皮很油,少嚐一口便放棄。湯的味道很濃很香,有很多磨菇。這裡地方不錯,我都是首次坐在梳化椅上吃晚飯。

Although I have reviewed this outlet before, 1 day on a relaxing weekend I walked in for a bit of afternoon tea. I happened to sit close to the Serving Counter's area. Guess what I saw? - One customer ordered a particular sandwich for toasting, then went back to his seat. One of the serving staff with a bad 扮晒嘢 attitude, a slightly chubby faced guy with long hair, proceeded to use his bare hands to flip through the mount of pre-made sandwiches sitting in the display fridge....

Although I have reviewed this outlet before, 1 day on a relaxing weekend I walked in for a bit of afternoon tea. I happened to sit close to the Serving Counter's area.
Guess what I saw?


- One customer ordered a particular sandwich for toasting, then went back to his seat. One of the serving staff with a bad 扮晒嘢 attitude, a slightly chubby faced guy with long hair, proceeded to use his bare hands to flip through the mount of pre-made sandwiches sitting in the display fridge.... He even managed to do this as if it makes him look 'cool' somehow.


From the front, this is not apparent as its filled with sandwiches but I watched this with disgust from behind. He then proceeded to serve the next customer and handled the money! - I believe he might actually be a senior staff and he should have known better.
Next up and without a bit of exaggeration, this idiot began flipping his obviously super hair-sprayed hardened hair with the same hands again, before serving the next customer.

- All this was going on whilst the rest of the young staff, girls and boys at the back were swearing in Chinese profanities endlessly.


WHAT AN UNPROFESSIONAL AND DISGUSTING SHOP!!


PS: Compared to the beginning opening stage, the Regular Coffee included in the Set Meal is also no longer carefully made from the Espresso Machine, they're now pre-brewed and poured whenever is required. Now, I finally understand why one needs to add $5.0 for a Latte or Cappucino coffee.

24-5-09(日)近近地來下午茶,吃了公司三文治配咖啡,原價$39,用了$5coupon。公司三文治有烘底,材料既豐富又好味,加上用了麥包,感覺健康。咖啡亦很香滑,有水準。只是店鋪略細,客人多,不容易找到舒適的座位。服務有禮。

單是這幢服務式住宅大廈裡, 已有 5 家賣食物的地方 (Starbucks、美心、Subway、Burger King、Super Sandwiches), 再加埋對面的麥記, 仲唔係六國大封相? 爛 gag 講完, 講下嘢食。第一次來食早餐, 吃了 B11 的 D'Lite Breakfast ($32), 有鮮果沙律和多士, 本來還有低脂乳酪的, 不過我買的時候已沽清, 服務員說可轉別的東西, 呃, 其實我對其他東西都沒什麼興趣, 無奈下只好要了 scone 一大個。不過個 scone 來的時候是烘的又暖又香脆的, 雖然我吃完了普普通通的麥包多士, 和除了少許預計中的出水之外, 還算多料好吃的沙律之外 (不過細心地用了片生菜墊底), 實在吃不下整個 scone, 但熱辣辣的 scone 難食極有限, 快手搽上牛油吃, 還是不俗。但其實, 還是咖啡比較好喝, 可能是一店 illy 咖啡杯 set 先入為主的影響吧?! 又有次在 Oliver's 的官網上找好康, 用 coupon 來吃了這個 牛油果、意大利芝士、松子仁意大利香草軟包 (原價 $48, coupon 價 $40) --

又有次在 Oliver's 的官網上找好康, 用 coupon 來吃了這個 牛油果、意大利芝士、松子仁意大利香草軟包 (原價 $48, coupon 價 $40) --> 現在已轉了拖鞋包 ciabatta 的優惠了, 不過也寫一下吧。這個三文治是用強烈香草味 (rosemary?) 的 focaccia 為主, 配以意大利芝士、松子仁、牛油果和意大利乾蕃茄為餡料。很久未吃過牛油果了, 用來做三文治, 其油潤軟滑的程度, 是牛油都唔駛搽的! Focaccia 本身的香草味其實很搶, 加上落得勁重手的橄欖油, 把三文治內其他相對清淡的配料的味道都蓋過了。當然, 它是一個健康的選擇, 不過也實在大件, 我想女生們吃半份都夠飽了。

Oliver's 的食物一向不算頂班貨色, 不過這家分店仍有可取的地方, 就是夠好坐。店內有些梳化位, 三五知己吹吹水又得, 見客食飯其實也不失禮。要自閉也有自閉位, 兼有報章供各位免費享用, Starbucks 坐滿了可考慮這裡。
舒服好坐

I couldn't believe that this was an Oliver's that I was walking into. I normally steer away from these chain outlets, as they seem to lack character, but being captured by the interior style, I took a chance with this sandwich shop. The design of the interiors felt like you were walking into a nice small cafe not in Hong Kong, but rather London or New York. It looks very rich and expensive and comfortable, but the food was surprisingly reasonable. Lunch is less than $50/pp.The ham and cheese

The ham and cheese croissant is reminiscent of what I used to have in New York, which i miss a lot. And accompanied by the popular Ice coffee from illys it's really quite a treat. And the staff are so attentive that you feel like you are in a proper restaurant rather a self-service place.

I just moved into the Shama serviced apartment upstairs, and am glad to have found a place that is worth going to around here other than the usual fastfood places like BK, Mickey D's and Subway. Oliver's food seems much more fresh and healthy and I've actually started to eat at Oliver's rather than bring my food home because it feels so nice to be in there.

This shop has really made me re-evaluate my prejudice towards this and other chains. And props to the interior designer for changing my mind. I'm sure I'll be eating here at least 4 days a week!

Did not expect Oliver's Super Sandwich to be so beautifully renovated, especially knowing how run-down this shop location was prior to Oliver's taking over. Had afternoon tea (or coffee) with snacks, the meals around the $24-27 mark. Very good value for money on paper, considering you get an Italian illy coffee with it. Funny thing though - you need to add around $5-6 for a cappucino or caffe latte, but for regular coffee (aka flat white) is included. This 'policy' is actually ridiculous

Funny thing though - you need to add around $5-6 for a cappucino or caffe latte, but for regular coffee (aka flat white) is included. This 'policy' is actually ridiculous from a cafe owner's point of view. Regular coffee uses more milk, also requires more time and effort to stretch/heat the milk for a regular coffee than a Cappucino or even Latte. Someone in Oliver's obviously doesn't understand this theory, or else is plainly trying to CAPITALISE on the unaware consumers to extract more money. Eitherway its a laughable pricing policy.


FOOD -
Honeyed Ham and Cheese Croissant -
This was really nice indeed. Cheese was definitely quite a good cheese, and it was thick and melty - tasted like melted 'gruyere' or 'un-aged comte' but did not seek out the answer this time around. Croissant was good without exceptional, but none of the Hong Kong-nised sweet pastry BS. Ham was thick and tasty too. Will be coming back for this time and time again, just for the cheese alone.
Tuna Jaffle -
Did not eat this, but apparently ok too..

ILLY COFFEES -
Regular Coffee -
This was really bland tasting to be honest. Its not completely illy's fault nor the coffee maker's fault. illy is just one of the most difficult coffees to master on an espresso machine.

Espresso -
想起幾年以前,我跟本唔鍾意飲 Espresso (或食 Dark Chocolate) 的. Coffee 都係. 雖說香, 但苦的, 又澀, 好戁放進入口. 當時成日稔, 啲人一定係扮大個, 勁扮嘢, 先話好味的. And the Top coffee baristas often talk about how 'difficult' it is to extract a good shot, or Top Shots or God Shots. I was still highly skeptical about this, even during the short period I was a cafe partial owner and was trained officially in coffee making and also learnt latte art myself... I was not open-minded enough......

In hindsight today? I was completely, utterly, 'should commit suicide ashamed' wrong for holding this biased view, just as many still are on this planet. The reason I/We are wrong? 無良商人. Not exclusive to Sxxxxx and PxxxxxXxxxx or just about almost all coffee shops in Hong Kong or in other countries. In reality - A REAL ESPRESSO, is so unbelievably gorgeous, its NOT bitter, NOR usually acidic and when done correctly, would take you onto new plateaus not experienced before. I did not even realise this was theorectically possible, until I had the revelation of experiencing some top coffee shots from top shops overseas.
In reality - Espresso's do not work in a linear, 0-10 scale like most food. It only has 1 sweetspot and perhaps some minor sweetspots next to the peak spot, when all controlling variables with its 'multiplying effect' must be calibrated to nearly 100% simultaneously. I can think of around 9 variables which all influence the outcome and which none of them must be below 95% before they destroy the outcome. Espressos therefore work on an exponential scale, or like a Sine/Cosine graph with their peakforms.
Now that I finally have cracked the code, I can say, instead of 0 - 10, Espresso can only be rated on a scale such as 0, 7-8, 9 and 30. Anything below 7, is completely wrong and therefore undrinkable. A score of 'around' 30 is when everything is correct, a God Shot, which I initially believed people were purely bluffing and never existed, until I experienced a couple and confirmed that it does exist.
It is just so 'god damn good', it reverberates in the mouth with a never ending sweetish, almost oily lingering taste that once you've experienced it, you'll finally realise what we've been missing out on.
As a comparison, perhaps in say even Italy - the ratio of good Espressos to bad ones might still only be around 1 : 8. In say Australia (where multiple world champions are born), its around 1 : 30 or more. In Hong Kong? The ratio is around 1 : 500 or more, without exaggeration. Coffee in HK, really is that bad, because, people haven't experienced it before and don't understand how difficult it really is to get to that difficult to achieve SWEET SPOT.
In the past 6 months or so in HK - I still remember perfectly, I have only had 3 GOD Shots in more than half a year, and 3 Pretty Good Shots. Six shots - that was it, and sometimes the experience isn't replicable even in the same shop with the same barista. We're quickly falling behind the world in this respect, that's why I keep on bringing up this topic on Openrice deliberately - I don't really mind what people think of me.
I'm not trying to be harsh or 扮嘢 or anything, but unfortunately, that's how coffee especially Espressos work. At least in milk drinks, the milk or water can mask the downfalls. Its not up to me at all to control, but its the truth. If one thinks about it, even a 為食 and very perfectionist and always curious 'foodie' such as myself, could not grasp the Theory during the days I was a part-owner in a cafe with a commercial coffee machine, until more than 1 year later.... until I finally opened my mind and learned from others who boasted that they know better - and finally discovered they really weren't kidding...天外有天, 係真的 I mean.... if we as 'consumers' don't ask and wish for more in Hong Kong, what are the chances of receiving it anytime soon in the future?

Here with my shot that day, unfortunately it was below a '7', which means its a 0. It doesn't matter if its illy, the so-called best coffee brand name in the world from North-East Italy. Its the person in the end, who can fully change the fate of the coffee, when they understand the 'sweet spot' calibration theory - which changes daily as well as with every batch of beans, temp, humidity, etc.

But who cares anyway? Lol.
Great fillings!
