Do you wish to stay healthy while enjoying nice meal? Now, you can with Calorie, which is a Hong Kong Style Restaurant that serves healthy and delicious food with a twist. Their all-time signature dish is the Pork Chop with Pumpkin rice. The Baked Pork Chop Rice with Red Sauce was my favourite though – a thick slab of juicy pork chop well marinated and doused with delicious red sauce.

My next Yue Sang was at Tai Zi Heen, which also refers to the royal chamber where the Prince meet his Generals to discuss his country’s affairs over a royal meal in the Chinese history.
