We've been impressed by our first visits to Chun Hong Kong Café (凱哥茶餐廳). Chun has a more focused (smaller) menu than nearby Like Café, but seems to execute better than the latter.
Dishes we've had include:
- Baked Chicken Cutlet with Spaghetti in Portuguese Sauce 焗葡國雞扒. $12.95; $14.10 with tax. A very good rendition of a chicken cutlet baked with spaghetti, cheese, and an Alfredo sauce. The chicken seems to have been fried before baking, as there is some outer crispness while the meat is juicy and tender.
- Hong Kong Style Milk Tea 港式奶茶 (Cold): $5.50; $5.99 with tax. Leans on the sweet side, and could be silkier.
- "Singapore Style Stir Fried Vermicelli" 星洲米粉: $11.50; $12.52 with tax. Good -- 4 stars out of 5. Chun's version of Singapore Mei Fun is better than most. For some reason, Singapore Mei Fun in many other restaurants have gone downhill, as either the signature curry flavors of the dish are missing, or the ratio of other ingredients to noodles have dramatically thinned. Chun's version has the right flavors and doesn't skimp on ingredients.
- "Dai Pang Style Stir Fried Vermicelli" 大鵬炒米; Tai Pan Style Mei Fun: $12.95; $14.10 with tax. Also better than most, also 4 stars out of 5. The squid and scallops were perfectly cooked. The shrimp were slightly overcooked, and the pickled cabbage seemed to be steamed instead of stir-fried. This dish has a better balance and mix of ingredients than similar offerings from other restaurants.
- Baked Chicken Cutlet with Cheese and White Sauce 芝士白汁焗雞扒. $12.95; $14.10 with tax. A little heavier than the Portuguese sauce version.
- Baked Seafood with Cheese and Spaghetti 芝士焗海鮮: $18.95; $20.63 with tax. Good, but consider a baked chicken cutlet instead, as seafood doesn't fare as well in a bake, and because they do a great job with the baked chicken cutlets.
