Joy Noodle Cafe 樂心餐廳

Great portions, food is decent, price is good and lot of tables. The service could be better, I have to chase after my drinks few times. What I like: The taste is decent and the portions are great for the cost. You get soup and drink for set meals. What I don't like: we order 6 meals but they keep missing count 1 soup and drink.

Found pretty good French Toast hereThe Hainan chicken rice is also very good. Just the ginger onion sauce being a bit plain, but the oil rice got good aroma.

I went out for a stroll, only to be caught in an unexpected heavy snowfall. Halfway through my walk, I found myself stuck in a dilemma—too far to turn back, yet hesitant to press on. So, I gave myself a goal to keep going: why not check out the nearby Bing Sutt? When I got there, it was closed—clearly taking a well-funded break for Lunar New Year celebrations. With no other choice, I turned to the restaurant next door and decided to give it a try. I ordered a sizzling steak, preserved egg and pork congee with youtiao, and baked rice with beef. Honestly, two dishes would’ve been plenty for three people, but I went for all three. Needless to say, I overate. Meanwhile, a curious little baby at the next table kept staring at me and muttering as if trying to strike up a conversation. The situation left both me and the baby’s Cantonese-speaking Canadian dad feeling slightly awkward. As for the steak, it was decent—though it clearly wasn’t comparable to a proper steakhouse. The set meal came with fries, soup, spaghetti, and a yin-yang milk tea. When the steak arrived, the sauce was poured with such flair that the sizzling sound turned every head in the restaurant. It was so loud, I didn’t even catch what the owner said when she served it. After having breakfast earlier, this meal was definitely overkill. What started as a healthy walk turned into yet another indulgent feast of congee and rice.

I rate this 4.5 out of 5 stars based on the following. The place is simple but bright and the decor is nothing special. We ordered from the lunch menu chicken, rice, fries, steak. The amount of food is good and we had left over but we we're smaller size also. The food also came with hot or cold deink and we ordered HK milk tea and coffee and both were good. The servers were also relatively nice. We also have some leftover for a obe person meal.
