Little Cove Espresso (Quarry Bay) — Restaurant in Hong Kong

Stick to the coffee-based menu and you will be able to enjoy your drink.

Unfortunately, I had the worst tasting matcha latte ever in HK, and was very disappointed especially after paying a steep HK$48-50 for it. The milk foam on the matcha latte was cold. The matcha also did not have a bright green color normally found in freshly-made matcha lattes - it was a dull green moss color, normally found in old or low-quality matcha. It also tasted quite bitter. I noticed they used some matcha liquid concentrate instead of matcha powder. Even McDonald's Cafe matcha latte tasted better than the one at Little Cove.

The Chai Latte was a bit more redeeming but not too special.

Would try a different food order, perhaps a salad or one of their sweet dishes or counter desserts. These have been pretty good from what I've found at their...

I end up taking it to go and they simply give me their cold brew in a bottle and didn’t even both to give me a cup. I have to ask for a cup!!! I guess coffee shops are charging for service fees these days otherwise we will not even pour your coffee in a cup for you!

THE SERVICE SHOULD BE “0” AS I HAVE TO OPEN THE BOTTLE OF COLD BREW AND...
