ANTIPODEAN Cafe 上環

ANTIPODEAN Cafe 評價 相片

When this place opened last year, I had high expectations and there were so many items I wanted to try.But everytime I got there, it was always closed.It was finally open on this visit and there were only two items I tried because the rest weren't launched yet.The items I wanted to try were:Chicken Mushroom & Tarragon PieCheese Strata with Prosciutto, Basil & SpinachBreakfast Ravioli drizzled with Creamy Sage & White Wine SauceShakshuka with handmade pita breadThis was the menu they were serving.The menu may have changed by now because I tried this in October 2013~While I was waiting for the food, I took photos of their cute salt and pepper shakers and ketchup bottle.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Rolled up omelette:This was a rolledup spinach omelette with goats cheese & dried tomatoes on a slice of toasted sourdough!The omelette texture was really interesting just like a swiss roll.It was soft, moist and fluffy with strong spinach taste which went nicely with the goats cheese.I don't know how the spinach omelette was made, but it took alot of effort and time!★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Louise Slice $20:The Louise cake is an old fashioned New Zealand favorite consisting of a thin layer of cake or biscuit topped with raspberry or plum jam, coconut meringue and then baked in the oven.I got it because it was really similar to this British jam and coconut slice.It tasted quite similar to the one I had at school but it was too sweet.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★◎ⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓖⓘⓡⓛ◎Price: $1xxService: OKYummy factor: okSweetness levels: quite sweetNapkins provided: yesNoise levels: NoisyGlass of water provided: NoneEnglish Menu: YesAir Conditioning: Yes◎ⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓢⓤⓟⓔⓡⓖⓘⓡⓛ◎

不得不承認最近好像對中上環區的咖啡店或是小餐廳著了迷般，愛上了它們遠離鬧市的位置，讓人放慢腳步的環境；愛上了它們每間都有著自己的特色；愛上了它們每次帶給我的驚喜，這些統統都是我在那一大串連鎖店裡無法尋到的。

繼Herbivores，Veygo Coffee，Mano後，這天又相約了友人在今年6月才新開業的ANTIPODEAN cafe來個brunch，享受午茶時光。

cafe位於上環差館上街，跟最近很火紅的Upper Modern Bistro很相近；四周人煙不多，適合想要好好享受寧靜時刻的人。

店裡面積不大，裝修以簡約的摩登型格為主體，牆身掛滿了圖案特別的掛畫，也寫上了字句如“Work Hard and Stay Humble"，甚具玩味呢哈哈！客人就是坐在中間這一張長長的桌子兩旁，在桌子一邊就是收銀處跟半開放式廚房，也是沖調咖啡的地方，咖啡香濔滿著整間店子，十分誘人！桌上的裝調味料的器皿也極為有趣！最右邊的蕃茄是載著蕃茄醬的；而右二兔子形的就是載著黑胡椒跟鹽！餐牌方面都是以Brunch的菜色為主，全日供應，如egg benedict，pancake， french toast等，約$95$130，最貴的是full english breakfast，為$185。

雖然不收加一，但價格都比坊間的高；加上每款菜色都不包飲品，要另外加$40單點，價錢不算親民。

兩人想了很久，最後就點了兩分主菜！班尼迪蛋配大蘑菇，蘆筍和煎藜麥餅 Egg Benedict with Portobello Mushroom, Apparatus and Quinoa Cake $115這個egg benedict跟一般的很不一樣！店家用上了健康的煎藜麥餅去取代英式鬆餅；大蘑菇代替炒蘑菇或是煙三文魚作為配料，很為特別！藜麥近年在歐洲被視為超級食物，營養價值甚高，含有豐富的蛋白質和纖維，店家這個配搭更能顧及現代人對健康的追求呢！一切開金黃的蛋液慢慢溢出，好不誘人！大蘑菇厚肉多汁，也能吸進滿滿的蛋汁；三塊藜麥餅煎得香口不油膩，麥香味濃郁也有粒粒的咬口，三者一起吃味道驚喜新奇，意外地匹配，而且吃下感覺也較健怡呢！唯上面的荷蘭汁偏酸及稀身，如果牛油香在濃郁一點就更好。

法式牛油吐司配雜莓和馬斯卡布尼芝士 Brioche French Toast with Mixed Berries and Mascarpone $115推薦的一道！一上桌就眼球被它的賣相所吸引，金黃的吐司配著色彩繽紛的雜莓，還撒上了雪白的糖粉，整個畫面很為豐富，也讓人胃口大開！廚師先把牛油吐司浸泡了蛋跟牛奶再煎，外皮帶酥脆，還有微微焦香；吐司內裡質感軟嫩且濕潤，像布丁一樣，很為討喜！吐司本身帶香濃的牛油香，也有著淡淡的蛋味和甜味，淋上楓糖漿後味道更為甜蜜迷人，每一口都是享受，完全停不了口呢哈哈！旁邊的雜莓除了有常見的草莓，藍莓，紅桑子之外，竟然還有黑莓，且都非常新鮮多汁，微酸的味道更去掉了吐司的膩感！而馬斯卡布尼芝士則為吐司增添順滑的口感和一點點鹹味，味道變化更多，個人非常喜歡，推薦！總的來說，這裡的食物質素不錯，也有自己的特色，個人很喜歡它的法式吐司，唯定價頗高，但如果想要享受一個人寧靜的時光或是跟好友慢慢聊天，也是值得一訪的呢！ANTIPODEAN Cafe地址：上環差館上街3號

What can I say, unsure what was worst the hospitality from the moustache girl with the body odour , or the expensive but tasteless food...first the food:banana chocolate pancake .... Cheap chocolate and nothing spectacular , big fat zero.... nutella does wonders, they shld consider this.spinach omelette .... Tasteless and expensive why is it on the menu please!note juice on the menu, unsure if that was put there to fill up the space.... No juices was available! The best part is when we opted for the ice chocolate drink, she nonchalantly said it would take 15minutes of her precious time to create, please why don't you just shoot yourself with that attitude....just serve water if you really don't want to make coffee or chocolate.service or the lack of it, for example we had to wait 5mins for the table to be cleared, then 10 minutes for water, eventually we had to go to the counter to get it!Don't go there if your taste buds are in good working order and you expect some service with a smile minus the attitude....and moustache !

前陣子發現新開的Antipodean Cafe，環境不錯，決定試試。

與友人點了4物首先是egg benedict， 一見時真的很有期望，特別是底的那塊是有別於平常食的那種，用了薯仔，非常吸引。

但係一食之下真的很失望蛋和薯仔真的很淡很淡，食之無味，成了雞肋...再來的是mixed berries french toast，這個對牌啦 味道好但冇特別驚喜~另外叫了杯iced coffee，以1杯$60咖啡來說真的是太貴了，一點都不值...最後叫了個核桃批，這個比較少見及值得推薦，核桃香很濃及喜歡這粒粒的口感而且配上雪糕很好食物質素而言價錢真的很貴，而且服務給我的感覺總是愛理不理的，有很大的改善空間。

Found this small cafe on the Openrice a while ago and it's on my 'to go list'. The cafe was already opened on June this year, finally got a chance to try it out last week.This new small cafe is located on Upper Station Street at Sheung Wan. If you are finding somewhere quiet, ANTIPODEAN Cafe is right choice!The word “antipodean” is refers to the inhabitants of Australia & New Zealand. Hence, there are some New Zealand Maori tatu kind of drawing on the wall outside the cafe. But why chose New Zealand?! Possible answer may be the owner is from New Zealand?!Once I went into the cafe, I could smell the coffee, pastries & bread! So refreshing! There were some freshly baked tarts, chocolate brownies, muffins..etc at the cashier.A open kitchen with 2 chefs were busy preparing for baking. There is another lady in the cafe, who was the one taking my order, I believe is the owner.While I was waiting for my food, some interesting quotes were found on the wall around the cafe as decoration! Inspiriting!Ordered a pecan tart & a cup of cafe mocha. Water is helpyourself at the cashier area.The plate and cup were all in beautiful colors.The pecan tart was served up hot with a small plate of whipped cream.The tart smells really nice & looks appetite! They was really generous in putting 8 pieces of pecan on top the tart. Some pecans were crusted & baked inside the tart with some sticky goodness! The crust of the tart was buttery & solid, not soggy at all!!The tart was so good that actually the whipped cream wasn’t really necessary.The cafe mocha was just alright to me. It got bitter and bitter when I drank to the bottom. May be cafe latte or espresso will be better?!ANTIPODEAN also offer brunch.Need to go there again to try it out!
