Fooding samples

Bayview
Located at the bottom of the Sassoon Road student halls.

1. Student Rice
$12
Big blob of rice, two sausages, vegetables*, egg and a choice of onion sauce or black pepper sauce.
*usually available in the early afternoon otherwise the lady will mumble some stuff apologising... or not at all.
Other permutations of sausage, egg, luncheon meat and "ham" available at the same price.

2. Set Breakfast A with hot drink
$14
Features two hash browns, buttered bread and scrambled egg.
HK milk tea shown in picture.
Other permutations available at an extra $2-$4. Beef, chicken, pork, fish (all deep-fried) are possibilities. 

3. Set Breakfast Borsch Soup with Abalone pieces
$17~
While the soup doesn't look that great, it goes down easily once it cools. There's bits of beef and vegetable floating about and a low-intensity sweet taste in the background from the tomato.
Hot lemon tea shown. This meal is rather high in liquids. It is not advised to ask for no drink as the conversation will result in confusion as it goes against the Asian principle of getting full value. That is, they will just ask you what drink you want until you give in.

4. Sizzling Plate Spring Chicken
$28
From visual inspection, there appears to be a whole chicken on the plate. This observation would be correct. The chicken is a little hard to work with and takes a bit more effort to eat. Also supplied is a bowl of Borsch soup, choice of black pepper or onion sauce and rice. A drink is included.

5. Sizzling Plate Beef Steak
$28
Similar to above. There are chewy bits in the beef but generally takes less effort to eat.
I like the idea of sizzling plates.

Student Union restaurant (Asia Pacific catering/aka Cafe de Coral)

6. Afternoon tea set
$20~
Pasta and ham to the right. Chicken burger, sausage and buttered toast and onion sauce. Cold drink included. Afternoon tea is the worst value time to be eating.

7. Shredded beef noodles sizzling plate
$24.5
No drink included. It's rather oily and difficult to eat immediately - it forces you to adopt its pace. A nice combination otherwise.

8. New Zealand Beef Steak sizzling plate
$38
There's a tiny serving of fried rice - and a rather simple one that was. There's a large serving of sauce (choice given). Unlike the Bayview equivalent, there were no chewy bits in this steak. A drink is included.

9. Breakfast set
$12~
All the details are in the picture.

10.  Breakfast set
$14~
They have a coffee machine at this restaurant so it actually tastes decent, unlike Bayview's pre-made batches.
This features fried fish, sausage and turnip cake. The turnip cake turned out below expectation.

Other notable meals not pictured

11. 100 marks selection - Minced beef, tomato sauce...
$24.5
Rather like spaghetti bolognaise on rice, this featured white rice with minced beef and tomato sauce. Two pieces of broccoli and one egg with yolk unbroken decorate the top. It seems healthy enough and a novel take on western food.

12. Combination Fried Rice
$19.5
A very safe choice. The skew towards meat over vegetables is quite evident in this meal even though the pieces are tiny, but numerous.

Outside notable mentions
Yoshinoya meals
Really really fast rice bowls. Can be rather dear, ranging from high 20s to mid 40s. Fast food not involving burgers!

Filler:-
Ruby Tuesday
Ridiculously expensive only redeemed by their 50% off for members. Of course membership isn't cheap. Meals were listed at $100 to mid 300s. It was a communal thing with hallmates.
