so 3 of us had our first breakfast at the oxymoron not so good 极之好粥面茶餐厅.
we were back nicely on time. our friend was rejuvenated, recharged, ready for some makan (eats).
we decided to have a bite at the beef brisket stall Lin Kee 联记面家 across the small road from our metropark hotel.
it’s a tiny place, but there is always a good traffic.
we ordered 2 x beef brisket cum tendons noodles 牛腩牛根面 HK$28.
and 2 x beef brisket noodles 牛腩面 HK$28.
both had beef brisket & beef tendons. but the si tau po – proprietress said 牛腩牛根面 has more tendons while 牛腩面 has lesser just to complement.
it was a tasty bowl of noodles. we were quite happy with it.
not sure if this was 清汤牛腩 clear broth version, but we had this on Day 4 at 牛棚 & the broth & the whole noodles were more tasty & flavourful.
the brisket meat here also not the ones i most preferred which has layered fat & connective tissues 胶 that becomes more flavourful when it converts to gelatine.
the poached chye sim 油菜心 was good.
overall this was a nice light & tasty breakfast, for the 3 of us, a second breakfast making up for the disappointing one at not so good 极之好粥面茶餐厅.
