[Snack] Quest Bar - The Protein Bar

How do you like energy bars in Hong Kong? I love/ hate them. most of the bars in Hong Kong are more like cereal bars or fruit bars which all have high sugar and carbs content. They does not really help if you are looking for a lean snack.

Recently, OOSupplies sent me two energy bars from Quest Bar for tasting. Quest Bar is different from many other energy bars in Hong Kong as they are high in protein and low in active carbs, what's more it is gluten free!

Trattoria Doppio Zero - Great Pasta Always

Price: $$

Cravingness: ★★★★☆

If you ask me where can you find good pasta, Trattoria Doppio Zero is definitely on the list. Trattoria in Italian means an dining environment less formal than restaurant, more causal service, no printed menus, wine is usually sold by decanter rather bottle etc. I would not consider Trattoria Doppio Zero trattoria but an Italian restaurant with a modern setup with romantic and sociable ambience.

Trattoria Doppio Zero makes their own pasta with doppio zero flour, the finest Italian flour. What I appreciate most is that they always make their pasta al dente. I brought Henry over tonight so he could try the lovely pasta out (secretly because I want pasta myself! :) )

An izakaya that can represent Japan signifies Gonpachi's stand in the industry..

Sun King Yuen Curry Restaurant - Wanna drink some cooking oil?

Price: $

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆

Lunch at Sun King Yuen Curry, Wanchai today after my doctor appointment. Sun King Yuen is famous for their signature Curry Pork Chop Rice and Stir Fried Beef Flat Noodles.

Lunch hours are mad crazy here at Sun King Yuen Curry. Since there is no system for dine in waiting or for take away orders, everyone just stands and blocks the front door in case the reception lady forgets them. To be totally honest, I truly admire the lady's strong memory although I hate how the system works in here. In the end, she did remember me and I got sit pretty soon.
