福滿源食店外賣中心 Fook Moon Yuen Takeaway

This used to be my favorite breakfast delivery place until our boss shut down the "breakfast club" at my last job. Oh the memories...

This place used to be on the end of Wellington street near the dumpling places. I guess they got booted out when that area became cool with the arrival of places like Mana and Cali Mex (how on earth have they managed to open up in so many new locations by the way!), and then they decided to move to the dark alley by the Centre (right next to the vegetarian place) - Tit Hong Lane. It took me a long time to track their new location down since I kept typing in the wrong Chinese characters on Google. I knew they weren't gone gone though since I still saw their delivery people walking around Central (yes, I ordered from them so much I recognize their people... plus their logo is a big orange and yellow thing so it's hard to miss).

I really like their breakfasts because

• they are relatively cheap, with a whole breakfast meal for just $25 (used to be even cheaper but... inflation)
• their portions are big
• they are tasty
• they separate the soup and noodles
• they've got a good menu to choose from - from sandwiches to congee to soupy noodles to rice rolls
• they've got soy milk as an option for the drink in meals

This morning I decided to revisit this place. Couldn't ask for delivery since I was the only person ordering (breakfast minimum charge for delivery is $50). I dropped off my bag in the office, called them to order my food, and then timed myself to see how long it would take to pick it up. Around 10-15 minutes assuming the elevators and traffic lights are in my favor (which it was this morning, hallelujah).

I was so happy I wanted to cry when I unveiled my food. Memories of the good old breakfast club days came all back to me. The portions still big, food still tasty, the same creamy soup base for my macaroni separated in a different bowl to avoid sogginess, and my warm soy milk. The only difference was that meal B now doesn't serve the egg/ham/bacon/wiener in a separate box, which is slightly annoying as it makes access to the macaroni a little more difficult.... but then again... let's reduce waste and safe earth right?

Sorry folks, menu is in Chinese only. Time to befriend a Chinese reader/speaker in your office!
