break — Restaurant in Hong Kong

Located right in the middle of Kowloon Bay and Ngau Tau Kok, Break is a total hidden gem. We walked around 15 minutes from Telford Plaza, taking the photogenic bridge to cross the road before arriving at The Quayside

As we visited on a Saturday morning, the restaurant was quite empty with only a few tables occupied. It was nice and quiet, perfect for taking a break from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The waitress asked us if we were interested to try the weekly specials (which wasn’t on the menu). We chose the tuna over the nanban chicken, as we saw that the chicken seemed to have been already prepared (we were sitting near the kitchen).

The food arrived at our table quite fast. Both mains came with a hearty miso soup that had dried shrimp, tofu, seaweed and radish as well as an appetizer (pickled cucumber).

We were absolutely blown away by the tuna don. The seared tuna was fatty while the sesame crust provided a crispy texture and hint of nutty flavor. I also really enjoyed the creamy guacamole, although the raw onion diced made it a little too spicy for me.

The sweet and thick Japanese curry sauce paired well with the crispy fried pork cutlet and rice sprinkled with furikake. It was nice that they also added some veggies, including potato, carrot and broccoli to give more variety to the dish.

The drinks were half-priced, as we had ordered mains. The hojicha latte was very creamy, but the lemonade was a little too sour with no fizz and too much ice. Perhaps we should have tried their coffee instead...

Smoked salmon guacamole croissant is crunchy and delicious, with a large slice of smoked salmon sandwiched in it, served with avocado, which neutralizes the saltiness of the smoked salmon. Make the entrance more delicious.
