某晴朗的下午，路過金鐘，邊踏著小碎步，邊想著找個地方來點什麽吃的，心情舒暢極了，找著找著，來到太古廣場，沒合適的~不要緊!再繼續走~不遠，看到這Double Star Cafe，不虞有詐，櫥窗佈置等看似蠻正常的，就大步進去找個空位坐。坐在近門位置，燈光有點黑，但位置頗寬，不錯的，一貫港式西餐廳的感覺!打算前來吃個甜品，於是選上了最愛的心太軟.......等待途中，發現四周空無一人。(下午人去樓空的話家常便飯，何況這是哪區嘛!)只有遠處近廚房有一台人在進食，初以為是食客，再仔細留意，發現原來全是職員!當下有種：不會是故意讓職員坐下扮食客吧?! 有需要嗎? 的感覺，反正就是不太好的.....過了會，心太軟來到，就是圖中的模樣，看上去正常不過了。切開，看見朱古力顏色略淡，已知道定不是什麽純品朱古力，味道應該不會太好，怎知道一吃才是極品!我的天啊，從來沒有吃過這麼難以入口的心太軟!壓根就是配料什麽的用錯了吧?那感覺像是吃了黃連的感覺，還有一種又澀又甘的味道，如果硬要形容，我想是把麵粉當成是自發粉做成的麵包，然後吃入口的感覺吧....更具體一點，就是把洗衣粉吃入口的感覺!!!對，絕對不是在誇張，那已經不是難吃，是不能入口!!!好，我還可以很淡定的叫上職員，職員說更換一下，並emphasize說：“味道沒差，就是這樣的，但我幫你換一件chesscake吧”哈~我居然很爽快地說好。cheesecake送來，味道是比美心聖安娜或者街上任何一件街坊麵包鋪還要差的水平，但比那不能吃的心太軟，絕對算不上是什麽了！當下就埋單頭也不回地走了，這餐廳真的需要改善吧?吃過這麼難吃的東西后居然還好意思理直氣壯收錢，一句道歉也沒有很晦氣的一個tea，美好的下午，悠揚慵懶的氣息全給這心太軟一掃而空......我終於明白爲什麽這餐廳常年累月的水靜鵝飛了，這食評是不吐不快，絕不是我黑它的!!…查看更多
Next came the Linguine with parma ham & black truffle cream sauce, my pick for the main dish. It wasn't too bad. The black truffle did not come to a good use at this dish as the amount given was too little to lift up the taste of whole. The cream sauce was quite well blend with the pasta and mixed peppers. Though the parma ham was quite weird as a combination to this dish..given that parma ham was better served as an appetizer, along with melon to lighten the saltiness of the ham...weird 
My Mum's pick - Provencal fish fillet with lemon butter sauce. Quite an average dish..the dried-out french fries, tasteless cabbage and the so-so fish fillet..altogether made the dish quite off-track. There weren't too much to eat fillet out of the provencal fish to be honest..and the dish wasn't appealing either :(The drinks caught us in surprises. Both the Iced hazelnut latte (left) and the Apple mint cooler (right) were quite refreshing and new for us. Best to drink them along with the sauce-heavy pasta and the breadcrumbs-heavy fish fillet! Very nice :)Last but not least, the desserts! I must say the desserts were the best out of all! 
The Bread pudding (left) and the Creme brulee (right) were pipping hot when served, indicated the freshness, most probably been stored inside the oven for quite a while. Both puddings were finely made with eggs. A slight spoon of the pudding gave me the finest taste of the wholehearted efforts given for the preparation of both :) Absolutely loving the tenderness and hotness of both desserts!! The name 'Double Stars', the sister's company of 'Strawberry forever', has long been established as chain stores around in HK. However, due to the decreasing popularity as well as the fierce dinning competition in Hong Kong, Double Stars has slowly died out and remained barely a few. It was not surprising to see that now, they have expanded their market into Mainland China, which turned out to be quite a success. I guess afterall, people in Hong Kong loved restaurants that owned an unique selling point, in which having backed up by a fame that was already created overseas. In this case, Double Stars might have lost out for more than a mile in the first place...Keep up the work Double Stars!
