We
had
ourselves
a
great
evening
at
Mongkok
Tea
House
and
would
definitely
recommend
to
others
-
it’s
particularly
well
suited
for
a
date
night
or
drinks
alongs
friends
or
even
for
those
just
in
search
of
a
tasty
feed.
Great
vibes
and
atmosphere
here.
An
impressive
liquor
display
is
accompanied
by
bright
green
neon
signage
and
a
wall
adorned
with
pictures
of
Hong
Kong
film
stars
which
along
with
astutely
selected
decor
and
smartly
dressed
waitstaff
(suspenders
included),
really
helps
to
inspire
a
sense
of
old
school
Hong
Kong.
Little
touches
like
the
red
corded
wall
telephone
☎️
were
very
cool
to
see.
The
food
menu
is
made
up
of
mostly
snacks
and
bites
as
well
as
a
few
larger
sharing
plates
to
choose
from.
The
pineapple
bun
with
vegemite
char-siu
butter
and
pork
floss
was
pretty
amazing.
I
particularly
loved
the
butter
although
I
would
have
appreciated
a
slightly
larger
portion
.
The
bun
itself
was
nice,
less
sweet
than
the
usual
bakery
versions
and
paired
well
with
the
butter.
Serving
size
was
suitable
to
share
between
2.
The
Fried
chicken
and
waffle
was
a
single
serving
portion.
It
was
nice
without
blowing
me
away
but
I
did
love
the
fact
that
they
used
an
egg
waffle
rather
than
the
conventional
Belgian-style
waffle.
Scallop
corn
chowder
was
very
tasty
and
has
a
base
of
steamed
egg
on
the
bottom
which
was
both
a
great
nod
to
Hong
Kong
cuisine
as
well
as
providing
a
great
texture
to
the
chowder,
which
is
often
a
dish
that
in
other
circumstances
sometimes
runs
the
issue
of
being
too
runny
for
my
liking.
Now
the
Chinese
donut
with
stracciatella
was
the
standout
dish
for
us.
These
donuts
can
be
difficult
to
nail,
but
ours
tasted
fresh
and
perfectly
fried
on
the
outside
which
was
able
to
make
up
for
an
ever
so
slightly
doughy
interior.
I
would
never
have
thought
stracciatella
would
pair
with
this,
but
oh
it
absolutely
does.
Dip
it,
smother
it,
spoon
it
straight
into
your
mouth
-
it’s
glorious.
The
black
vinegar
glaze
with
hints
of
chilli
oil
really
accompanied
excellently
with
the
stracciatella.
Comes
in
a
good
size
for
sharing
between
a
few
also,
but
to
be
honest
it’s
a
dish
I
might
have
trouble
sharing
in
the
future.
We
also
had
the
dry
aged
duck,
for
which
they
managed
to
deliver
a
wonderfully
crispy
skin
and
tasty
flavors.
It’s
a
large
dish
and
a
great
option
particularly
for
a
group.
It
was
probably
the
most
conventional
dish
we
tried.
Drinks-wise,
the
cocktails
we
had
were
very
good.
The
bar
staff
knew
their
stuff,
made
great
recommendations
and
were
excellent
conversationalists.
We
also
had
a
Hong
Kong
style
milk
tea
which
excellent
and
in
my
opinion
a
vastly
superior
options
to
the
milk
teas
delivered
in
bubble
tea
stores.
This
fusion
menu
was
exceptionally
well
executed
and
was
able
to
combine
styles
in
a
manner
that
actually
elevated
the
overall
dish
-
we
see
a
lot
of
fusion
in
Melbourne
but
I
feel
this
is
a
rare
feat.
Can’t
wait
to
go
back.
