Hong Kong Pizza Hut Afternoon Tea review

inside dining area

Pizza Hut has come a long day from it's pizza restaurant days in Hong Kong. What used to look like a cafeteria has been transformed into a much presentable restaurant. It would not be exaggerated to call it a cafe... A pizza Cafe.

As I walked into Pizza Hut, I was immediately surrounded by the familiar aroma of Pizza Hut's pizza

After sitting and waiting for food I realized that soft commemorate jazz was being played.

Where ever you are, you can hear the noise of workers hard at work in the kitchen... I didn't mind but when they started talking loudly outside their work area (inside the dining area), that was when I started to mind.

Afternoon Tea Set

After carefully choosing (you can find their menu on their website) I opted for their Supreme Pizza Set. There were a lot of choices... but this appealed to me the most. You can either choose a specialty drink or a soup... I chose soup. The cost of this was $65 HKD.

Supreme Pizza

Pizza was delicious. The pineapples complimented the taste very well

Olives gave it that extra push of savory

Pizza crust, very crispy on the outside, very soft and moist on the inside.

I found the crust at the bottom to be slightly oily though.

Score: 8.5/10

Cream of Chicken and Mushroom Soup

Cream of Chicken and Mushroom Soup

I love this soup. It is one of my favourite items here and I'm glad they have kept it till now! 

The soup is not thick and can be considered thin by "cream soup" standards (but this is what I like about it). Although the Chicken and Mushroom taste is not very strong, you can still taste them and there are a lot of chicken and mushroom bits inside. I really like the soup brooth/base, it leaves your mouth feeling savoury.

Score: 9.5/10

Service

The service was fair but not very efficient. I find myself making an effort to capture the staff and servers' attention. And it took them a long time to clear out finished dishes. And the noise that I mentioned at the beginning... not very happy with that.

Set lunch at Pizza Hut [Review]

partial of the set lunch (missing the pizza... see below)

Set Lunch @ Pizza Hut
$200 HKD + $20 tips = $220 HKD (approximately $30 USD)

My choices:

• Soup

1. Clam Chowder
2. Chicken Mushroom soup (cream)

• Appetizer

1. Mushroom Risotto 

• Entree

1. Tropical Pizza (it is Thousand Island Sauce based)

• Drinks

1. Berry Fantasy
2. Ice Coffee

This is not exactly a review, since I won't be reviewing every menu item... but I would say that I was impressed with the quality and quantity. I literally had a 6 month food baby when I walked out of the restaurant.

Tropical pizza

There was one thing I didn't like, and that was the Thousand Island sauce used... usually pizzas made with a Thousand Island Sauce (instead of the usual Pizza Sauce) is nicely flavoured... I found it quite sour tasting... the pinapple was already very tangy... and adding a Thousand Island Sauce made it super sour. Unless you like sour/tangy food... I would suggest you order the other item.
