Avery Cafe - Richmond

Yea you don't go there for the food cause it is terrible. You go there for the some nice backgrounds for your photos. The bowl of rice I got pretty sure it was left over from yesterday kept in a rice cooker. Yes the food was that bad. Real bad.

I have an African-style fried chicken for lunch. The chicken is fried meticulously so that it will not be too dry and that the meat juice can be kept. The seasoning on the chicken is well mixed, giving a delightful taste of herbs. The soup is creamy andtastes well. The iced milk tea is silky and not too sweet. The decoration is excellent. What I appreciate most is that theirfloor is super clean and not greasy. This marks a big difference from conventional HK style cafe. The attendants are polite andpatient.

The surprise chicken sashimi was delightful! ???????????? Edit: Since the restaurant wishes to press the matter rather than admitting fault, I will elaborate by saying that the chicken was ABSOLUTELY RAW in the middle. Nothing to do with it being aparticular type of meat. This was not the normal redness you get near a bone. The raw part in the picture was accordingly cold.In fact after I sent the dish back and the waitstaff returned with it (presumably microwaved), pieces of the meat were stillpink enough that I could not bring myself to finish the rest of it. I would steer clear unless you’re really feelingadventurous.

Don’t mistake this cafe as just a regular tea /coffee place. It is a full fledged dinning restaurant. But they do have a huge list of teas to select from. Food menu also has great selection of food items. I didn’t try a-lot of food so can’t commenta-lot except , the interior is beautiful like a fairy tale.

Dreamy decor from the days when they had afternoon tea here. Great selection of food. Enjoyed the pork hock which came with pasta and salad; you will leave feeling full and satisfied. Service was lacking.
