The meals are generally on the salty side, the char siu scallion oil lo mein needs to be eaten with water, the pork chop in the "Evil Eyes Pork Chop Rice" is good but the scallion oil is salty, and the Macau-style pork chop with instant noodles is also quite salty. The croissant egg tart is average, and the overall experience is not very satisfactory.
The restaurant is located in the 101 Food Court. The environment is clean, but there is a queue.
Braces User Review: There are plenty of sinks at 101, and I even saw a lot of people brushing their teeth. 😂 This is a newly opened Hong Kong-style tea restaurant at the 101 Food Court. We lined up before 11 a.m. to try it out, ordering three set meals and three croissant egg tarts. Here are the dishes we had:
The total amount was NT$999.
First, we tasted the stall-style Char Siu Scallion Oil Mixed Noodles, which were on the salty side. The char siu was mediocre and had to be eaten with water; you even needed to tilt the plate to drain the excess sauce. Next was the Malicious Double-Eye Pork Chop Rice, which had decent ribs served with two soft-boiled eggs, but the scallion oil was still slightly salty. The Macau Pork Chop with Instant Noodles was also salty, so it's no surprise the accompanying soup was bland. The side dish of black fungus was average, and the pineapple bun was decent. Lastly, the croissant egg tart was nothing particularly impressive.
Overall, this experience was less than ideal, and I probably won't revisit.
The location is at 101 Gourmet Street, B1. I hadn't been there before, so I wanted to try Hong Kong-style cuisine. Even on weekends, you still have to find a seat before ordering. By 5:30 PM, it was quite crowded. There are dedicated cleaning staff to tidy up the seats, and the environment is fairly clean.
Regarding the dishes:
The partner's char siu scallion oil noodles set costs NT$278. The scallion oil is a bit salty and should be eaten with noodles or meat; I can't eat it alone. It pairs nicely with the noodles, which are a bit firmer. Without sauce, it's on the bland side, so it should be accompanied by char siu or scallions. Overall, it tastes quite good. The side dish of black fungus has a bit of spiciness in the broth at the bottom, which is a bit bland for me. The soup unexpectedly tastes good, quite fresh and sweet.
Located on 101 Food Street, the dim sum restaurant requires a wait during meal times.
I ordered the classic scrambled egg with shrimp rice set for $278 (it's $218 if ordered a la carte). The set includes a main dish + a small side + soup + a mini pineapple + 1 drink.
The scrambled egg with shrimp rice is quite tasty. The shrimp is very large, and the scrambled eggs are very tender and smooth, with a good flavor that pairs well with the rice. Overall, it's quite delicious.
The small side dish is black fungus, which I found particularly good, especially with the sauce that seemed to be scallion oil—very flavorful and tasty.
As for the mini pineapple, since I ate it after finishing the rice, it wasn’t hot anymore, but it was still quite delicious; I bet it would be best enjoyed warm.
The soup consists of a bowl with a meatball, which is decent.
For the drink, there were several options, and I chose salty lime soda. I really enjoy carbonated drinks, so I was quite satisfied with this one; it's a nice mix of salty and sweet, very refreshing! 👍
