Comments on wine list/beer: Good selection of far eastern and US beer

Summary:

I used to drink here every time I am in the vicinity. Ocean Terminal and Harbour City is a huge Mall near Star Ferry on the Kowloon. On this visit, I went and had lunch.

It was a big mistake as it was easily the worst meal I have had for a long time.

The menu is a list of steak, burger and sandwiches. All the portions were huge. For $100, you can feed 2 here. However, beer is around $60 for a pint.

On the day I went, I ordered club sandwich. There was no egg in the sandwich – they only do whole wheat (US) and no other form of brown bread. The toast was warm and slightly soggy as a result of a huge amount of sliced tomatoes crammed into the double decker. Next, the meats, they were all sliced off a roll (both chicken and ham) and it’s the sort of water injected meat that you get a mouthful of juice (?) every time you chew.

Well the Americans (linebacker size) in the place seemed to be enjoying their meal – they all had burgers. I couldn’t eat mine.
