Antipasto @Wanchai

The simple yet cozy decor and relaxed ambiance remind me of this restaurant in Belgium where I used to go. Lots of Western customers, mostly Italian, feels like I'm back in Belgium again.
Feeling a bit nostalgic...

Wonder if their pasta is as authentic and good?

We ordered Chicken Caesar Salad and Pasta Antipasto. Though the portion of the pasta was relatively small, taste wise it was ravishing! The fettuccine with salmon pieces and mushrooms has absorbed the rich creamy sauce, very tasteful~

Besides the yummy pasta, the Quesadilla Mexican and juicy BBQ Baby Spare Ribs are worth trying too.

Overall great food, good service. Be back soon!

Zambra @Wanchai


Zambra is a flamenco dance and in Arabic it means "party".

1,5 year ago Felix (from The Corridor) recommended us 2 coffee shops, Coco Espresso and Zambra. Well, for those who have been reading my blog for a while know I'm a big fans of Coco cos Johnson's cappuccino is undeniably the best!

I've been meaning to visit Zambra ever since but haven't gotten the chance to do so until last Sunday.

Me and my friend decided to give their cappuccino a try. When the waiter brought our coffee, the beautifully created coffee art caught my eyes instantly!

Very cute chick

I like the lady's face coffee art the most, very refined and elegant.

Full bodied espresso topped with a thick layer of milk foam. Texture wise not as thick and smooth as Coco's milk foam (I wonder what milk they're using cos it sure didn't taste like Pura). But all in all it's good cappuccino :)
The sharp & cheerful yellow blue cup and saucer are very eye-catching~

Auntie Sweet @Tin Hau

Tsat Hay Noodle and Congee House @Wanchai

Signature "Yi mein noodle soup with shrimps in satay sauce" was scrumptious! Meaty shrimps with springy yi mein noodle basted with robust satay sauce! I just loved it to every bite!!

Fresh fish skin is a real delicacy. It's not as common and popular as the deep-fried version but definitely worth trying....of course if you're not yucked by the look of it :P It might not look appetizing (some say it reminds them of snake skin) nevertheless it's very crunchy and tasty!

Wara Wara Japanese Casual Restaurant @Mongkok

Shirokiya Fruit Punch (a Collagen drink), Scallop sauteed in garlic butter
Spicy French fries, Deep-fried chicken cartilage, California roll and Salmon & fresh veggies in honey dressing.

I prefer Wara Wara to Watami because of its extensive menu of main/side dishes and drinks.
The scallops, French fries and chicken cartilage are very tasty! A must try :)
