Being a small place on the ground corner of the OC2 mall, this place has fewer seats than my car. And when I visited there were empty seats available too.

The Food
Spaghetti Carbonara. A standing item on my must try meals. The bacon bits were plentiful, so too the mushrooms and these were blended in a creamy sauce that mixed well with the spaghetti. It lacked the parmesan taste that spells quality ingredients, but what can you do? The price was very reasonable at $45 and it was of a good quality.
Risotto al funghi. If I cooked this myself, I'd put tonnes of assorted mushrooms in it with self grated reggiano parmigiano, and of course half a bottle of white wine. But this is a fast food place and prices are cheap, so ingredients have to match the budget. And they did it well. There was an assortment of mushrooms, nothing extravagant, just the local mushrooms that one can come by in Hong Kong, and the rice was cooked on the other side of al dente. I like my risottos even softer. Again the creamy sauce lacked the cheese I'd expected, but it was palatable.
Total spent: a mere $90. Good for the money.
