Cafe Kowloon!



aiyooo final year medical student syndrome we must all be having. poor blog has been abandoned for eons! anyways, trying to kick start it again.

so being in 6th year, without exams and all.. supposed to be a cruisy year right? WRONG! we've been busier than ever (imho anyway), less cooking (sobs), and more dining out (so expensive!!). so i guess i can feature some of the places i've been frequenting much.

one of them, is none other than Cafe Kowloon. if you asked me about this place 2.5 years ago, i'll go YUCK! bleh~ but now, the taste has kinda grow on me. and they have quite a few signature dishes that i find palatable now :D at a reasonable price but more importantly, opens till like 2 am! woo~ maklumlah, adelaide no mamak, no 24 hours whatsoever kan..


what's good here? their congeee is a sure win especially during winter :) nothing beats a hot bowl of porridge with yau char kuai! the fried rice was so-so. "chiu pai" (signature) dishes include crispy beef, butter chicken, shandong chicken, "kam ngan dan poh choy" and creamy egg white! but since it was just me & chris that night, we just had ala carte. oh yeah! not forgetting their beef hor fun.. mm mm..

winter's not doing my weight any good :(

cafe kowloon is located near chinatown, along gouger st, west end. price is reasonable, taste wise pretty good, service is fair (and if they're in a good mood, they'll give you a free bowl of 'tong sui' too!)
