The options are limited in Tung Chung, so when we want to eat nearer home, it can be a troubling experience. We settled on Buddies, as it looked decent from the outside. Never again will we eat there based on the quality of the food.So we ordered a bbq set, singapore fried noodles and two milk teas. The tea was fine (one should hope so too), but rest was a shambles.The bbq was pitiful. The meat was not very good quality. The sausage was a cheap hotdog style thing, cold with a bit of smokine
So we ordered a bbq set, singapore fried noodles and two milk teas. The tea was fine (one should hope so too), but rest was a shambles.
The bbq was pitiful. The meat was not very good quality. The sausage was a cheap hotdog style thing, cold with a bit of smokiness, but not much. The roast pork was ok, but dry and cold (a little warmth doesn't go amiss). The other pork was super cinnamony - to the extent that it was hard to eat. The chicken wing was one of the least pleasant things I have put in my mouth for a while. Cold and slimey with jelly-like texture. The half slated duck egg was salty to the point of hurting your tongue and was as hard as a rubber ball. A TOTAL CATASTROPHE. The only thing that was ok, was the rice.
The singapore fried noodles were nowhere near as good as at any other cha chan teng. The main problem was that in addition to the normal shrimp and pork, they had added those little tiny dried shrimp. Now, many people like them, but we detest them and they are not normally served on this dish. They really gave the dish a fishy/shrimpy taste that is not associated with Singapore noodles - one of my favourite cheap lunches. So after picking out the little beasts, the dish still had a remnant of their flavour. Off putting.
Basically, Buddies is cheap because the quality of the food is poor. Badly executed with cheap ingredients. We will not walk through their doors again and I recommend that do not do so either.
