Went to the (relatively) new Hong Kong-style cafe restaurant by Good Catch Boil House, aptly named Good Catch Bar & Cafe, with Ying and her family for dinner.
Spam and egg sandwich
Deep-fried calamari and fish balls
Prawn and beef scrambled eggs on rice
Stir-fried udon with Swiss beef
Baked rice with chicken and creamy truffle sauce
Our (pretty random) menu for the evening: a Spam and egg sandwich (simple but SO FREAKING GOOD — I still don't know how they get the eggs to be so fluffy — and did you really go to a HK cafe if you didn't get a Spam and egg sandwich?), deep-fried calamari and fish balls (carried over from Good Catch Boil House — decent, but the fish balls were dry and chewy, and not in a good way — wouldn't order again), prawn and beef scrambled eggs on rice (excellent, again with the fluffy eggs, plus plump shrimp, and sauce-drenched beef with two carefully placed broccoli florets — you can't go wrong), stir-fried udon with Swiss udon (this is usually made with flat rice noodles, but I love the chew of the udon), and baked rice with chicken and creamy truffle sauce (an indulgence but SO WORTH IT — baked dishes at HK cafes are definitely one of the few instances where I prefer rice over noodles).
Nostalgia aside, there are just way too many things on the menu that I need to try. Baked Portuguese chicken rice? Curry beef brisket with instant ramen? Crab cake Benedict? God, I need to come back ASAP.
