廚尊 (Project Dignity), Shanghai 618, Mongkok, Kowloon, HK

Came here to support this group for helping the underprivileged.  It serves with a no. of Singaporean food.    Ordered a laksa, chicken rice and kuay tiew.  The price is at around HK$78 at average.  It was a bit interesting to see how this kind of so-called "social" community would pay a considerably high salary to those underprivileged, as HK$78 is quite expensive for some street stall food.  Furthermore, the rent is supposed to be funded by the Government.    
I tried to finish the food to show my support but I couldn't.  All the food we ordered were lukewarm.  Yet, the rice was a bit smelly as if it was a left over.  Ended up I had a stomach bloating after taking this meal.  The laksa was a bit better but the kuay tiew was a bit mashy and greasy with heavy sauce.  We may not judge on the cooking or food quality but at least the management should guide their staff to serve hot food as hot and decent food.  The group should at least think how to attract customers to stay on to support instead of highlighting their goal "serve with dignity".  Sometimes "talking" is easier than "walking".  Hope this group can really think about what they serve, instead of in what manner they should have.
