I’m thankful that the area where I work, Quarry Bay (鰂魚涌), has many eating places to cater to many palates and budgets. Even 7-Eleven sells hot food like rice boxes and noodles. If I were to write a single entry on all the different places I usually or can go to for lunch, it’d take up probably close to 100 entries (maybe more)!
Anyhow, this short entry is about the delicious cookies by Teresa Festival.

I paid HKD65 for this packet of butter cookies which I wolfed down in two days. Yes, I’m a cookie monster. The cookies are of the crunchy sort and it came in an assortment. Some were plain, some had almond bits, others had swirls of chocolate dough, a morsel of jam, and one was topped with poppy seeds. The cookies are also sold in a big glass jar – these make really good gifts!
To celebrate one of my colleagues’ birthday recently, he requested an American cheesecake. Cheesecake lovers will like this dense cheesecake. They do cheesecakes in several other flavours too. I also tried their chestnut mousse cake (below). I wasn’t wow-ed by this cake, possibly because I didn’t think there was enough chestnut puree.


My favourite is still the cookies and when I want a good cookie fix – I make sure I only eat good ones so that I don’t waste my precious calories – this is where I’m going to get it.
