The Hong
Kong food
scene is quite overwhelming with all the choices this not so small country
could offer. This is the very reason why I didn’t really list down the
restaurants I want to visit because I’m bound to find a good restaurant
or two in every street. But one restaurant included in A’s recommended
restaurants was Café de Coral, a
popular quick
service restaurant chain in Hong
Kong and since we were hungry and were in front of the place, we gave it a
try.
Hello, Café de Coral.
The place is very much a notch higher fast
food chain. You order in front and head inside to line up again for your
food.
R got the Soya
National Farm Chicken and BBQ Pork with Rice (HK$42) while mine was Soya National Farm Chicken and Roasted Duck
with Rice (HK$42). We also upgraded and got their newest hot beverages.
Unfortunately, I forgot what these were called but mine was with ginger.
R’s chicken
and pork
barbeque
dish was great! The tender chicken
and pork
were glazed with the lovely sweet
sauce and it went well with the blanched veggies. The pork
though was slightly dry.
My dish, which just had duck
instead of pork,
was pretty good too. The duck
meat was tender and well flavored too and the chicken,
just as delightful as the one on R’s plate. The only thing I didn’t like about
mine was that the duck
was quite bony making it a bit troublesome to eat.
The drinks
we ordered were perfect as it was getting chilly that late afternoon
and it was freezing cold in the restaurant. We had to dilute it a bit though as
the drinks
were a bit too sweet to be thirst-quenching.
Overall, it was a pleasant
early dinner (though I thought it would be cheaper than the usual restaurants).
