Food Republic (Citygate Outlets) – Tung Chung, Hong Kong

Ok I know Food Republic is a little too mainstream and who doesn’t know Food Republic right? But the fact remains that Singaporeans do go for Singaporean food which they greatly miss when they are base overseas like me! 🙂 However, each Food Republic differs in the array of stalls and that is why this post. 🙂

The below food sampling are over a 3-day period with friends, hence this collage of so much food. Most of them were good and some really con job. Check it out:

Rating: 4/5. There are many other HK and Macau cuisines that we didn’t try. Maybe you can try them and let me know here! 🙂

Taste: In general not bad and much cheaper than those Cha Chan Ting and restaurants. This is where most HKers living around that area ssettle their meals.

Portion: Average.

Service: Average service. However I spotted the cleaning lady using her broom to sweep whatever’s on the table to the floor so she can sweep it up… Quite a shocker actually!

Ambience: Nice well decorated with super high ceiling. Love the powerful air-condition there!

Price: Affordable… Except for the con job Korean beef noodles!

RTE: Yes! At least I will still go for the soy bean curd and coffee!

Location: Level 2 of Citygate Outlets, Tung Chung, Hong Kong.
