Authentic Hong Kong Cafe Food at Cafe De Hong Kong (新天地小厨茶餐厅)

I believe most of us have traveled to Hong Kong, enjoying the shopping and also the food. Other than dim sum, the most authentic place that describe best about the culture, are Hong Kong cafes! You might think that the chain of restaurants which are almost in every heartland malls are the closest you can get to curb your cravings, you will be so wrong!


With Boo's Recommendation, we decided to travel from the West to Balestier for some real Hong Kong Cafe food! Upon pushing open the glass door, I am overwhelmed by  the many canvas paintings decorating the whole place which looks like a simple place, sincerely serving good food.

Oh my.... here comes the first dish Boo and I cannot wait to indulge ourselves in!! The fish roe fried rice is so fragrant that I bet you will be addicted to the dish once tasted a mouthful. For a serving of 2 at $9 filled with fish roes and beat eggs make it yearning for more! Yummy!!~ Simple yet ... delicious!

Next came our toast which tasted so great that I thought I have packed it from Hong Kong itself! The peanut butter has immersed in between the warm toast with some honey and a cube of butter makes it so sinful yet... can't take my eyes  mouth of it!

Notice the mug? It contains the infamous 丝袜奶茶(Silk Stocking Milk Tea)! The taste is definitely different from the local HK cafes, I suspect there is addition of condensed milk to enhance the taste of the milk tea. (-.^)V

The last dish of the meal is the jade tofu with Broccoli tasted very healthy and I specially love the gravy and the tiny mushrooms plus shredded dry scallops. Yummy! The Tofu silky inside but slightly crispy outside. Solid indeed as the gravy did not turn the tofu soggy despite we finish the dish last.

All the food served are of equally high quality. Although it is not an easily accessible place, it is worth visiting this cafe and I bet you will never look back....
