Tim Ho Choi Hong Kong Style Tea Restaurant
I heard that this tea restaurant is very famous when I passed by it while shopping, so I brought my friends together to give it a try this week~
Number of people dining: two people (not Two pseudo-girls who can eat a lot)
Per capita: 58 yuan
Address: Lemon Center, No. 1, Northwest Lake Road
Recommendation index: ★★★★☆
Let’s talk about the environment first. When you walk in, you feel like you are in a Hong Kong drama. When you enter, there is a corner staircase, and the second floor is the real restaurant area. The store is not big, and the distance between each table is relatively close. Whether it is the decoration, table settings, tableware, etc., it has a strong Hong Kong-style market atmosphere, giving people a very relaxed and comfortable feeling. On the walls along the stairs, there are various photos and pictures hanging. Here are some pictures for you to see!
A huge "brother"
Let's get to the point, let's talk about how it tastes.
Black Gold Quicksand Buns
To be honest, this is the first time I have seen black quicksand buns. They look very much like a scarab~
At first, I was worried that they would taste bad. After taking a bite, I was completely impressed by them! The dough is soft, and you can eat the quicksand with one bite. The key point is that the texture and taste of the quicksand are particularly good. If you go to some restaurants to eat quicksand buns or custard buns, the fillings will always have some flavor, but this filling has no flavor at all. It tastes rustic and has an authentic and mellow taste. But everyone should be careful when eating to prevent quicksand from dripping onto your hands and body when you bite into it.
Dry Fried Beef River
The portion of Dry Fried Beef River is super generous, more than enough for two girls. The beef is very chewy and fragrant when served. When eating dry-fried beef river, you are afraid that you will find a thick layer of oil on the bottom of the plate after eating it. Their beef river is not too oily, which makes people feel greasy after just a few bites, but it does not taste dry and tasteless, it is just right.
Crispy rice rolls Rice rolls
If you don’t like leeks, you can skip this dish. The chive flavor inside is very strong. The soft and glutinous rice roll wrapper is wrapped in a second layer of crispy wrapper, and the filling is inside. The dual taste experience is great, like eating spring rolls and dumplings.
Steamed chicken feet with lily sauce
The chicken feet are steamed extremely thoroughly and melt in your mouth. The ones I have eaten before are steamed chicken feet with black bean sauce . This is the first time I have tried it with lily sauce, and I still prefer black bean sauce.
Frozen Lemon Tea & Silk Stocking Milk Tea
These two drinks are probably the most common in tea restaurants and can be found wherever you go. Although they appear to be ordinary people, they are actually very different. Take frozen lemon tea as an example. Some taste very astringent and have a bitter aftertaste. In order to improve the taste, some stores may add some essence syrup or the like, which masks the fragrance of tea and lemon. It is actually not easy to achieve a balance between the two and make lemon tea delicious. The lemon tea here is good!
But there is one thing I don’t quite understand. Why does the hot one cost 12 and the ice one sells for 14? Does it cost 2 yuan to add an ice cube? ? ?
Well, this is the introduction to this store for now~
Friends who love taking photos strongly recommend this store, as you can take pictures of different retro Hong Kong style!
