Lunch at PS Cafe (Palais Renaissance)

 




I met up with Pei yesterday at the PS Cafe (Project Shop Cafe) inside Palais Renaissance for a long late lunch, and boy, we were cradling the rocks in our bellies outta there by the time we were done with our meal. The thing with Pei is, we have been journal friends for several years now, we graduated from the same secondary school (different years), she used to live in NY for a bit and at one point we had the same hairstylist (Wyman @ Cutting Edge). But we've never met each other until yesterday. She is one cool gal and I'm looking forward to visiting her in Hong Kong sometime. ^^





The decor of PS Cafe is nice, it puts you inside a collonial-style greenhouse-like setting. High ceilings w/ wooden beams, old-style ceiling fans, marble tables and rattan chairs. There are displays of flowers and ferns here and there, potted inside aged mint julep cups and oversized glass vases. A very idyllic atmosphere and great food to boot. Huge portions though, but heck~ we are "Americans" so can't quite say we're intimidated by that. ;P

Okay, on to the food pr0n...



Fries w/ Grated Parmesan and Truffle Oil. Decadent!



PS Caesar Salad w/ Poached Egg and Herb-infused Croutons. (I thought this was super duper yummy!).



Croque Monsieur, it was huuuuuuge!

Oh, I didn't get to take a photo of our drinks. We both had the Peach and Lychee Fizz, which tasted reeeeeaaaaallly good! Just the right amount of carbonation and sweetness. I loved it a lot.


As if we hadn't had enough good, Pei was egging me on to order dessert and we decided on the Giant Coffee Eclair. Frankly, the word "Giant" was a major turn-off at this point, but..... ah okay, we're on vacation, what the heck, let's go for it.

See how bloody frickin' humongous the Eclair is!?!?!

So in Yelp fashion, I am giving this place a 4 out of 5 stars. I like the atmosphere, the decor, the menu offerings, but I find the prices just a tad on the high end and it'll be a full-blown indulgence to be eating here regularly.
