Lobster Creme Brulee ? Dinner or Dessert?

We began our dinner set, Lobster Creme Brulee with thermidor (30 mins prep time) ($248) is such a delightful French dining experience. We were all impressed by this creative kind of savory creme brulee full of lobster goodness. With a layer of crispy caramel on top. It was rich and creamy finish that got the appetite primed for the lobsters to come.

With fresh and sweet chunks of lobsters and plenty of mushrooms in lobster sauce are too sacred to pour over toast points. This combination tastes surprisingly good but the portion sizes and price was not reasonable enough to usurp other lunching options along school streets and King Street. Perhaps because we saw the huge price difference among all items in its menu.

For dessert, we loaded up from Black Sesame Souffle ($98) with homemade Black sesame ice-cream which was a highlight with a rich and creamy texture, and a pleasantly strong freshly grand sesame flavor. We forgoed the sinking soufflé which was a bit thicker; flavour dominated by the ice-cream.

Our night ended merrily with a vibrant blend of herbal tea. Tea pouch was filled with subtle slices of citrus fruit and soothing chamomile. 

The first port of call that brings village vibe to Sai Kung

Five Coffee Company is the first port of call to start our day with a caffeine hit in Sai Kung. We dose ourselves with a perfect Macchiato Latte ($38) which exudes a stronger and more aromatic taste than usual latte.

We also loved Black eye ($42) using Kenya kirinyaga Gachami AA that gives a balance of sweet and sour sensations, with a lively, lemonade brightness. Mouthfeel is silky and smooth. I think it's a perfect day-to-day drinking coffee!

*What's the difference between latte and Macchiato latte? The owner of the store explained espresso is added to milk for Macchiato Latte,while milk is added to espresso for Latte. It's more about the order difference of milk and espresso.

Looking for something free of caffeine? Highly recommend Ice Red Latte ($42) with a blend of pure rooibos tea and milk; served with honey and cinnamon. It's not quite common to have Rooibos tea options in most Hong Kong cafe.Glad to have the alternatives to coffee at this tiny laneway coffee shop that the deft barrister took pride in. Staff are a joy to chat with too!

We loved the outdoor sitting much more than inside,  especially when we can make most of the sunny sun these days. It's such an inviting space overlapping with the public laneway. You can simply take a sip of coffee and chill our lungs out with friends while being part of the local community.

Who wants some rainbow icecream and mini cakes?

The rainbow icecream selection has driven us crazy at A Fun Store at The One Shopping Mall in Tsim Sha Tsui. As a macha lover, I have also ordered few scoops of ice-cream among that rainbow selection without any doubt- Macha at different intensity- 15%, 25%, 40%, and now it's 50%! Strong in the astringent macha flavor, so dense and silky smooth; flavor stayed at palette without  If you are not the ultimate macha fans, I would recommend ordering 25% or even less.

We also ordered the Chamomile Sweet olive Oolong Tea flavor which gives a mild flavor and flowery-green aroma. Be patient as you will only start experiencing the mild Oolong tea after staying in your mouth for few seconds. A great option to cleanse and refresh our palate with a mild Oolong tea aftertaste:)


"My Cake" ($65) in rose flavor topped with strawberry, orange peels, dragon fruit, and dried raspberry. It's a mini sponge cake at one person's size, beautifully decorated by staff, no matter what toppings you selected. (at max 4 options). The rose flavor of this fluffy sponge cake is pleasantly lovely, reminding me of dried rose pedal.

Beer soft cream in Jordan

Pink Fairy ($44) was a clear favourite with a pronounced BEER 🍺flavour, thanks to its 6:4 Hoegaarden Rosée to milk portion. 🍻
Embellished with crispy raspberry and chocolate pop rocks which accented the texture of soft cream. An additional salty pretzel, as a perfect beer snack, has perfectly added complexity to it. Greentea one was good too!
