A mixture of surprise and disappointment

Friends searched online for restaurants and this was our first time here. After entering the restaurant, there is no restaurant location, the corridor location, corridor dining food😂, the environment is simple and narrow, but the price is not cheap, completely not in line with such a dining environment, the corridor dining price seems more reasonable. We ordered a lot of signature dishes, but found that the restaurant’s signature dish was not mussels, but several other dishes that were better. The restaurant’s rule is that checkout is made before 9:00 pm and guests are asked to leave at 9:30 pm. This culture makes me feel Hong Kong's attitude towards guests. No wonder fewer and fewer people like to dine in Hong Kong. In such a service atmosphere, it is difficult for the catering industry's economy to develop sustainably. 🤦🏻♀️🙈 Next are my specific evaluations of the food: Onion soup, a little different from what I imagined, but overall the onion soup was very fresh, and plus the two breads were hot and fresh enough. The mussels were worse, this dish disappointed me, the mussels were not fresh, the head was small and not worth the price at all. The accompanying fries were a bit greasy when served and tasted bad. It's relatively soft once served. Garlic sliced ​​fresh shrimp Super appreciated, but this dish surprised me, the shrimp was hot, garlic fragrant, fresh shrimp very fresh. Dip the bread with fragrant garlic oil, really delicious and delicious, highly recommended! King Crayfish The crayfish was very fresh, the meat was delicious, the sauce was also very in place, rich in layers, this dish I also highly recommend. Mentaiko spaghetti Excellent, savory and slightly spicy, the pasta served with a unique taste, cooked just right. Be sure to mix the sauce before enjoying for better flavor. Apple pie The much appreciated apple pie, served hot, exudes mouth-watering aromas of sweet apple and osmanthus. This dining experience was both surprising and disappointing, and the restaurant’s service culture as well as price settings deserved improvement.
