Sinchon Korean BBQ & Fried Chicken, Tsim Sha Tsui

This type of Korean BBQ places is so hawttttt right now. Thanks to recent craze of kpop & kdramas ;) 

We're happy to have stumbled into this new place near the fried chicken place with crazy queue (Lee's family) - I don't do queues! The cute place serves BBQ, some cooked dishes & fried chicken. 

We ordered a serving of beef. Generous serving, tender & tasty.

Our server helped us cooking it to charred but juicy perfection.

Hello, beautiful combo of flavors! Come to mama.
You guys might notice that I didn't add any raw garlic in here. I super dislike raw garlic... Hehehe. 

The BBQ pan was changed after every single serving is cooked. No burnt pan ;)

We ordered spicy marinated pork too.

Not bad, but I love the beef more.
The meaty meal's served with various small side dishes (banchan). Mostly are refreshing pickled vegetables to balance out the meat. 

Thanks to the recent kdrama "My Love From Another Star", SC had to have fried chicken & beer. So we ordered a mix of sweet spicy & plain.
I love that the sweet spicy one has light dressing, not as sticky sweet as the one from the famous Lee's family. The batter & the chicken could do with more seasoning, my dead taste buds find them underseasoned :)

And of course, we had to have the chicken with beer - thanks to the drama. I still prefer my chicken with iced coke though...

The drama crazed SC.

The BBQ place's walls are full of kdrama pics. Too cute.

We had a ridiculous amount of food for just the two of us, we had to take away the chicken. The food's reasonably priced. Too bad they don't take reservations. So, go early :)

Signs That Your Man Is Crazy About K Dramas

He suddenly wanted chicken & beer instead of chicken & coke...

He suddenly wanted jajangmyeon instead of Indomie Goreng as midnight snack..

He went for HK$68 kimchi ramyun breakfast instead of HK$29 Satay Beef Nissin Noodle set.

I am speechless for the next ones...

He's definitely gone kdrama kpop cray cray.
All thanks to the recently crazy popular drama My Love From Another Star :D

Cath Kidston Inspired Afternoon Tea at Feast, Hong Kong

If you're mad about Cath Kidston, this afternoon tea set might be for you. Everything's served in cute Cath Kidston florals :)

But we can't eat porcelain now, can we? How about the food?

Classic fruit scone with Devon Clotted Cream & Strawberry Jam? Not bad :)

Sweets:
Rose cream filled macaron: I like the fragrance.
Orange blossom chocolate bon bon: too sweet for me.
Earl grey cupcake: moist with nice frosting, but I could use more earl grey flavors :)

Savouries:
English honey glazed ham & mustard sandwich, tea smoked salmon, horseradish & cucumber sandwich, duck egg mayo & watercress sandwich, asparagus wrapped in gorgonzola & cured English ham, sun-blushed tomato palmiers, & quiche lorraine.
They're not too bad, but could be much better. My socks weren't exactly blown off.

So, if seeing cute Cath Kidston inspired things floats your boat, go for it.
Plus, you get Cath Kidston rose hand cream & discount voucher to buy Cath Kidston's latest goodies.
The set is available for HK&228 for two on weekdays, or HK$195 per person (buffet) on weekends from 3:00 - 5:30 pm until 18 May 2014.

Thanks to East & Petrie PR for the invite.
