【Causeway Bay】The Old Book Store: A Thai Fusion Restaurant Brimming with Life Philosophy in Every Detail

Located in Causeway Bay, "The Old Book Store by The So Longly Club" is a Thai fusion restaurant🇹🇭 with a bookstore theme📚, offering a simple yet cozy ambiance. Surprisingly, the menu, utensils, and food are full of delightful details and whimsy. The names of the dishes on the menu are unique and amusing, bringing a smile to diners' faces😝. For instance, the common 'Soup of the Day' is bluntly translated as 'Today's Soup'🥣, and the salad is called 'Very Green Avocado Salad'🥑, with each page turn bringing a pleasant surprise. The utensils🍽️ and napkins are printed with humorous and thought-provoking phrases that can make one laugh and cry upon first glance, but upon reflection, they seem to be filled with life's philosophy😌. We ordered the signature Crab Meat Matcha White Curry Rice Noodles, All day breakfast, and Mentaiko Crab Meat Wild Mushroom Pasta🍝. Additionally, I tried their special Pandan Coffee☕️, while my friend chose the homemade Hawthorn Apple Tea🫖. The most distinctive dish has to be the Crab Meat Matcha White Curry Rice Noodles, a unique and innovative combination where the sweetness of the crab meat🦀 perfectly melds with the aromatic richness of the matcha white curry. The crispiness of the rice noodles complements the curry's creamy flavor. The taste and texture of the other dishes were also exceptional. The drink selection is diverse and surprising. I ordered the special Pandan Coffee, where the bitterness of the coffee blends with the fragrance of pandan, creating a unique flavor. My friend had the homemade Hawthorn Apple Tea, a refreshing and delightful beverage served in exquisite tea ware, adding enjoyment to the whole dining experience🤩. 📍Location: Shop No. 1, G/F, Tower 535, 535 Jaffe Road, Causeway Bay 🚝Transportation: About a 3-minute walk from Exit D4 of the Causeway Bay MTR station
