Wash it down with a proper, intensely silky HK milk tea, and youโ€™ll completely forget youโ€™re in Victoria. Elite tier comfort food only. ๐Ÿงˆ๐Ÿž๐Ÿง‹

The food was a solid, comforting meal, though it didn't completely blow me away. Here is the honest breakdown:
๐Ÿ› Curry Chicken Karaage: The highlight! Incredibly tender and full of flavor.
