Fashionable Chinese roast

Good BBQ opened their first takeaway joint in Central in 2015 but sadly I never got to try the slow roasted pork because it was always sold out.

I don't work in Central so it is hard to find a place nearby to sit down and enjoy it.
Managed to try one of the side dishes that was not sold out some evening which was really good because I love OKRA!!

Anyway, recently found out from FB that they have a joint at Lab Concept with a dining area so went there asap.
Coming from Pacific Place, there are these stylish piggies on the floor that lead you to the joint.


Each piggy is different and stylish that I like almost every one of them.





To my surprise, they have fine French teas and lamb charsiu on the menu.





With traditional Chinese roast shops, you are normally put off visually because you see weird wood logs as chopping boards, grubby staff with greasy hands, meat dripping and other meats touching the glass window.
Here you don't see that but you see a TV of what is going on in the kitchen.
Ordered the lamb charsiu and slow roasted pork which comes in a stylish box that is more fashionable than the previous fashionable blue box they had!!
According to Good BBQ, they will change the design of the box every now and again.

As well as the box, the suckling pig is also made glamorous with a golden chain and sparkling gem eyes!

Even the little details like the sauces are labelled nicely.

I loved the lamb shoulder charsiu because it has the charsiu sweet flavouring yet it has a prominent lamb taste without the gaminess.
As well as pork, lamb gives you another option and people who don't eat pork won't miss out on Charsiu.


The slow cooked roast pork was tender and delicious.

New on the menu are buns, a popular snack in the UK.
I had this evilicious charsiu bun topped with a 63 degree egg.


As well as charsiu, they also have crispy pork belly, duck and other combos.

Finished off with a lovely fine French tea which was the perfect finish.

[Pizza Hut, Hong Kong] Get lovebites with STARBITES

At Pizza Hut there are some new dishes, as well as pizza there is baked lobster with Parmesan Cheese called the CHEESY LOBSTER SUPREME and SLOW COOKED PORK KNUCKLE.


The star of the show is the STAR BITES pizza which comes in two flavours is in a shape of a star and the slices look like HEARTS.



At the moment, they are doing a promotion where you get a miniature version of the Star Bites pizza if you order the set and spend over $350.
See in store or online promotion for more detailed information.


The lobster was really good complimented by the fries and salad, it definitely felt different as I would never have imagined eating baked lobster at Pizza Hut.

The pork knuckle was soft and came off the bone easily covered in thick sweet black pepper and honey sauce, while the vegetables and gravy were laced in aromatic cumin seeds.

Prawn and scallops STAR BITES pizza and the mini pizza pictured together.
Each slice looks like a heart.


Chicken and peach STAR BITES pizza:
Tried both pizzas and the chicken and peach is for people who like it sweet because it is fruity with peach and pineapple pieces.
I liked the Prawn and scallops because it had olives, pepperoni and green peppers.
The pizza base was equally as good because it was soft with a chew and you can tell it is made from fresh dough.
The pizza edges were my favourite because I love cheese and it was stuffed with cheese and sausage.
Definitely coming back again for more cheesy pizzas!!
The fizzy drinks are always memorable because they are the fizziest compared to other drinks.
