Given the option of a pasta dish or thai red curry, I opted for the curry, knowing it would’ve catered for caucasian tastes. The curry was quite salty, even when eaten with the rice. Also included in the lunch was cheese and crackers, a boost bar, and later, cookies and cream icecream.
Cafe Kowloon Chinese Restaurant, Gouger Street, Adelaide
A colleage and I walked around Adelaide looking for potential places to eat. After heading to Rundle Mall, we eventually did the walk towards Chinatown, on Gouger Street, where there was more life about. After perusing the options, we eventually opted for this place. We opted to order our own and a couple of dishes to share.
Somehow, lemon lime and bitters was construed as beer, and so I was given a Tsingtao. Oh well, since work was paying, I drank it.
Pepper spare ribs. Deep fried tender rib goodness, with a thick gloopy pepper sauce. It was quite good, not overly salty like salt and pepper ribs, but there wasn’t a lot of peppery heat either.
Seafood claypot. It included prawns, scallop, fish, squid, tofu and vegies. It was OK, plain flavoured probably to make the seafood shine.
Beef horfun. The egg sauce was different to what I’m used to, and the noodles didn’t have a lot of wok hei. The beef and gravy was tasty though. With more wok hei, it wouldn’t been quite good.
The chilli oil served here had a lot of garlic in it too, I didn’t mind it, but much prefer the dried chilli flake oil that I’ve had in Perth and HK.
