The nice little restaurant is very cozy and chill. They welcome pets here too! The all-day-breakfasts are quite popular and we ordered the big o one to share as the portion is quite big There are eggs, bacons, sausages, smoked salmon, salad, tomato baked with cheese, grill mushroom, hash browns and a waffle-crossiant. Everything tasted great! We also ordered the iced matcha latte which was very yummy too! No wonder it's always packed on the weekend.

Nice little cafe serving Western food & coffee. It's right next to 7-11 store, there's no name plague but if you see Google map, you'll recognise the facade of the store. I had their signature coffee, Caramel Latte. It's ice coffee with crispy honey comb caramel. The caramel is bitter sweet and slightly salty. Delish! The place itself is quite cozy & crowded during lunch time. A great find in Yuen Long. The price though is a but high, HKD 60 for the Caramel Latte.

Just had a delightful breakfast at this café in Hong Kong and it was an exceptional experience. Impeccably smooth scrambled eggs, perfectly golden and crispy triangle-shaped hash browns, and a succulent, fresh piece of salmon were all i need. I will definitely come back again before heading back to Australia, happy days!

I tried the mushroom omelette breakfast which is $62, the portion is so generous! The mushroom omelette is really tasty, the melting cheese goes so well with mushrooms and egg! And the waffle is crispy and sweet, love it! Paired with salad, it is so fresh and light. The flat white is smooth, with nice aroma and a bit of nutty flavor. Overall I really enjoy it, thank you.
