Relax For a While Restaurant 輕鬆一下 (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★☆☆☆

Like A-Plus Kitchen (讚記廚房) which I visited earlier this year, Relax Restaurant (輕鬆一下) was another go-to cha chaan teng of mine whenever I needed a quick bite in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui. Over the past decade or so, the cafe had become a stable for tourists thanks to its centralized location but had fallen in hard times without visiting tourists in the COVID-19 era. As a matter of fact, the business became so bad that they had to move into a much smaller premise next door. 



I was in the area to see my hair stylist so I decided to have breakfast here for old time's sake.


Breakfast set for $40, not cheap!


The pantyhose milk tea was a little weak. Not creamy, velvety and fragrant enough. Not a good start.


The instant noodles in rich tomato soup was also average at best. The broth in particularly was so disappointing. It wasn't rich in flavors at all (just look at the color). 



Butter toast, ham and scrambled egg were decent but nothing to write home about.



Perhaps, it's time to close the books on this once-popular cafe once and for all.
