Pound and Roll (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★☆☆☆

After spending the entire afternoon walking around K11 Musea, it was time to sit down and indulge ourselves in something sweet. But rather surprisingly, all the restaurants and cafes were already stuffed with customers so we decided that we were better off having our afternoon tea elsewhere. Next thing we knew, we were already on our way back to our old friend, K11 Art Mall for a quick look. We ended up sitting down at Pound and Roll since both Jelloman and little nugget have never been there.

I recalled having dinner here not long ago and was reasonably happy with their fusion dishes. But their bread and butter, pound cakes and roll cakes (thus their name)? Well, let's find out.....

Out of the three flavors of pound cakes, we ended up choosing this Earl Grey one. It was served with vanilla ice-cream and apple slices. 

Meh, this was really nothing special at all. I am a bit surprised it was what the cafe was named after (thus making me believe that it's their signature pastry!). 

The truffle fries, on the other hand, were much better. All three of us just couldn't stop eating them.

And we have the perfect drink to wash down the cheesy truffled fries with - mixed berries milkshake.



One thing was certain after today's encounter - I would never come back for their cakes! But the savory dishes probably deserve another chance.
