Out of the blue, I wanted to shop for a TV. We drove to Katong Mall, paid Mega Discount Store a visit. We have always wanted to try out the “Hong Kong Tea House” restaurant next to the mall. The food is indeed ‘pretty’ authentic, as what we’ve been told. But my plate of cheese baked spaghetti with meat was so much tinier than I thought, like one-third of what I would have expected. 2 main dishes, 2 cups of herbal tea, 3 portions of dessert, total cost was close to S$40. Sort of expensive for “tea house” food eh?

WOAH! expensive! talking about that, don’t try this Osaka Town at basement of Raffles City.
same problem – size fell grossly under expectations.
And not cheap!
BTW, like your drawings!
It’s really refreshing and cute!
G – Eeewww … OK, I shall remember. No Osaka Town then.
Thanks for your kind words! I am still evaluating if I shall do a few doodles here and there to – like you say – freshen up my website. I can’t be doing the same things again and again eh?
Ya…they just call it a teahouse…but restaurant prices. The tea cafes in Hong Kong still more authentic in terms of prices, yes, no?
Tigerfish – Good point your have! You are right. It is by no means authentic in terms of pricing!
ah that’s a lousy place. I went there once before and nvr returned
Kiat – Ya man. But the food is pretty delicious though, to me that is.
