after having summerschool lessons i met up with my ma and went to this simplylife cafe for lunch. being attracted by the aroma and the i-think-it-looks-yummy-appearance of the newly baked bread (esp. danish), we persisted on waiting although there was a queue of about 6 persons(3 tables i guess). while waiting for our table i noticed that quite a number of people ordered the burger set. going on a diet, i had decided to give up the burger for something more healthy and less meaty. at last! after
at last! after waiting for ten mins, we got our table inside the cafe. the composition of the lunch set is:
1. daily soup or salad(as for today its either mushroom cream soup or beetroot salad)
2. a choice of main courses, ranging from brown rice to pasta to burger to breakfast fry-up
3. dessert
coffee or tea/soft drink/juice
if u order only main course ie.2 =%72
1+2 or 3=$82
1+2+3=$92
i ended up ordering an english big breakfast set while my mum ordered mushroom cream soup+brown rice with chicken
the eng breakfast was okay, size of serving is okay and the scramble egg is NOT overcooked. and the raisin toast is undoubtedly fine it goes very well with the butter, or the scrambled egg, or whatever and although it seems a bit strange to serve grilled 'GAI BEI MUSHROOM'(literal translation as chicken leg mushroom), the sliced mushroom were juicy and the grilled tomato as well as i am still on a slimming diet, i only ate 1/2 of sausage and bacon, but they looked very tempting and tasty
my mum liked the cream of mushroom soup but i thgt its too salty. she also said the bread which came with the soup was a bit too hard-the brown rice my mum ordered was okay, not too good not too bad.
as for the drinks-we both ordered apple wolong tea-they were fine.
to sum up-it was a fine lunch. but as i am quite a fan of frying pan, i cant help comparing this breakfast set with those served by FP. its quite unfair to compare this cafe with another brunch specialist-but i really like its scrambled egg. its even better than those served at FP, which can sometimes be overcooked and not runny enough.
ps. over 90% of the people around my table ordered the cheese burger. they looked extremely temptinggggg...perhaps i will give it a try next time.
pss. as for the environment of the cafe, it was pretty cozy but noisy during lunch hours.
