Heard of Golden captain for so long, but because it is situated at an area I would not usually visit so havent had chance to try!
Today i decided to give the good old captain a visit. For me, it is quite a way to it, gt the MTR to Olympian station, from there, i exited at Exit B, n walked all the way on the footbridge to the 2nd turning. Walked a road, then we got to the road where the restaurant is situated. Wasn't as hard or as complicated as i have thought it would be
as it was afternoon 3pm, there was no queue, and only a few tables of costumers in the restaurant. I wasn't really expecting a WOW interior decoration, but the first impression of the interior was satisfying. Not bad. quite simple, not stylish but comfy. We was greeted immediately and was seated on the middle table. There are round bout 10 tables I think in restaurant, the kitchen located at the back. Lights were dim, and quite peaceful. Menu was cleqrly written with chinese and english. Not a huge variation of food to choose from, but as i had ideas already in what to order from reading openrice, i did not study the menu as much.
They had tea set from round 28 hk dollars, with a free drinks. There was many choice, but they did not seem very appealing. Ordered the famous Cheese burger and the Black truffle pizza. Menu stated if you add 30 hk dollars you could change it into meal, which includes a free drink and a soup of the day. We got a choice of Chowder or Vegetable soup. we chose the vegetable soup and a chocolate Milkshake. ewe also ordered a set from the Tea set menu as it was such a bargain. we ordered M which was a fusseli with duck in Tomato sauce. the free drink i chose red bean ice.
first came the soup, with a piece of baguette. the soup was very nice, but portion was quite small, especially we shared it. then came the chocolate Milkshake, It was abit disappointing as it wasn't as creamy and thick as i hoped, it was bit watery. the Pizza came quite quickly and so did the Pasta.
Pasta was definately not al-dente, even by looking at it. Looked a bit over cooked, and mushy. Not really that hot. But to my surprise it did not taste as bad as it looks but did not have the WOW factor. the pizza was not the ordinary pizza you get in pizza hut, but more like sandwich. i love that, something different, and very crispy. It was very very cheesy, which is a good thing, with lots and lots of parmesan cheese powder on it, with the Black truffle inside. it was the best. tasted so good.
The burger came and looks just exactly how it looks in the pictures from other peoples post. It was cut into 4 pieces, so considerate of them. the meat was very juicy and was just right.
The pizza and the burger we would definately come back for it next time. For further 30 hk dollars, we could have a dessert too. i had the choc pudding, as it took some time to come, i am sure it was made from fresh. the pudding was warm, and the ice cream was ICE cold, with the centre so cold and hard to even spoon out. the two was the best eaten together. the whole meal came to 236 hk dollars which was a bargain as we had ordered 3 things, with one as a set comes with a drink, a soup and a dessert.
I would definately recommend this place, and cannot wait to visit again.
thank you for the good costumer service.
