My friend and I went here for a quick lunch, and we both ordered a set lunch of a Smoked Salmon and Egg Salad Wrap and Iced Milk Tea.

My friend and I went here for a quick lunch, and we both ordered a set lunch of a Smoked Salmon and Egg Salad Wrap and Iced Milk Tea. The entire meal costed $44, which was quite an affordable price. 

Because we were afraid of running late for an event, we both decided to order the meal as take-out, though we did end up eating the meal in the shop. 

The staff was quite polite and helpful. My friend asked for no tomatoes in her wrap and they didn't forget like some restaurants tend to. 

The atmosphere was average. It was lunch time so the shop was quite busy. It was quite hard to find a seat but the staff found us one. For hygiene/cleanliness, we did see a fly flying around, but it bothered my friend more than it did me. 

Anyway, the wrap arrived warm and was well wrapped. The first thing I noticed, however, was that the amount of egg salad in the wrap was measly, while the amount of veggies was a whole lot more. That was a bit of a disappointment as I expected more "egg salad" than "green salad". The amount of smoked salmon wasn't a lot either, but because it has a strong flavor, it didn't quite bother me as much. Overall, it was a decent wrap, because at least the vegetables were fresh and everything was well done.

The Iced Milk Tea was rather small(8 oz), but it didn't really affect me. It was nice and sweet but my friend and I both agreed that there was way to much ice in there. As the ice melted, it made the tea rather bitter.

I think the wrap alone was quite light, but it filled me up nicely. Of course, if you are a big eater, it might not fill you up. Therefore, you should probably consider ordering dessert or the fruit salad/yogurt/etc as well. It was a good healthy meal, and I definitely think that it is worth a try.
