It's past midnight. We had breakfast, skipped lunch & is hungry now…Tired of eating at our neighborhood's 24H coffee shop…so we chose to drive here.First time trying this eatery although we stay very near to this district.Hmm…I noticed there's a difference in the name as it's now called "Enak Selera Hong Kong Tea House" (see stall front picture).I ordered Kebab Popiah with Cheese ($6.50) while hubby had Roti John King ($5.50). We both wanted hot drink so it's Coffee Tarik ($1.10) & Tea Tarik ($1

Tired of eating at our neighborhood's 24H coffee shop…so we chose to drive here.
First time trying this eatery although we stay very near to this district.
Hmm…I noticed there's a difference in the name as it's now called "Enak Selera Hong Kong Tea House" (see stall front picture).
I ordered Kebab Popiah with Cheese ($6.50) while hubby had Roti John King ($5.50). We both wanted hot drink so it's Coffee Tarik ($1.10) & Tea Tarik ($1.10) for us.
## First Impression ##
I liked…
- the neat rows of sitting…
- the staff's palm-size digital ordering device…
- the business hours 1130H to 0500H…
- the clean tables (attentive staff clear the tables as soon as customers proceed to the Cashier)…
- the big portion of food…
## After Thoughts ##
I don't like…
- our hot beverages are lukewarm…
- our Tarik beverages are not the "Tarik" type that we'd expected (later we found that bill states as Coffee & Tea HK only)…
- the cleaners were efficient but scraps of food were swiped to the floor…
- the gangways are very narrow, it's difficult not to be disturbed when staff or customer passed by…
## The Food ##
My Kebab Popiah has nothing much to shout about.
It's filled mainly with sauces (thousand island, mayo & chili), tasted like there's only a small piece of sliced chicken cutlet, a few tiny shreds of lettuce & tomatoes…all wrapped in a thick tortilla.
The Cheese Fries, on the other hand, is very crispy & goes well with the swirls of cheese sauce & sour cream sauce.
I hardly touched the chili sauce that came with my dish (too much sauces to stomach at one go)…
Hubby's Roti John King is filled with Black-Pepper Sauce drenched deep fried Chicken & Mutton pieces sprinkled with shreds of lettuce sandwiched between 2 slices of bread that is soaked generously with egg. It is then topped with swirls of cheese sauce, sour cream & chili sauce before serving.
He said it tasted more like a Western style food. The sauces are very jelat…so much so that he said he is not going to eat another Roti John like this anymore!
## Conclusion ##
We find the pricing is ok for this type of coffee-shop setting. But, we will not come back to try their so-called "Local" dishes & beverages any time soon…
