Honolulu Cafe — Restaurant in Zhongshan District

Had early dinner here today (20th July 2019)

Prawn Fritters is normal and a bit oily.

Carrot Cake is absolutely disappointing. Did not even fried till crispy. Not even hot from the pan.

Char Siew Bao is so so only. Nothing fantastic.

From 2019: Either too sweet or too salty for my taste.

Had a small table, my food came rapidly; therefore, had to let them take away some even after just 1 bite so as to make room for the others.

When I asked them to slow down, they just said they can’t.

Well, this will be the last time I’m going...

Chain from Hong Kong, high expectation, can a bit disappointed. The milk tea was not as flavorful, lighter. The daikon cake also didn't have enough flavors and way too thick in texture. The shrimp roll had good crispy skin with fresh tasting stuffing. The rice in clay pot was cooked properly, but the sausages we're sliced way too thin and not fresh. The stir fried rice noodles with beef was probably the only dish that was close in authenticity, a bit too sweet. Overall, not very impressive,...
