The first thing I noticed when I entered Hong Kong Jubilee was the aroma of fried chicken. It made my mouth water. The second thing was the pervasive orange and ivory decor. We were greeted and seated in the Corsage Room, a short room decorated with numerous Frisbees and gleaming vases. Our waitress, whose name was Elaine, came promptly and distributed the menus. The menu is expensive. Some of the items which caught my eye were potatoes and gravy, bonbons, chicken gumbo, and cookies. I decided to order Scrambled eggs Carpaccio and my companion, George, ordered Burritos Du Jour. Elaine seemed fierce as she brought in our orders about twenty-one minutes later. I had a pretzel on the side, and George had a piece of fried chicken. A glass of carrot juice was a perfect complement for my scrambled eggs.
The Scrambled eggs was rigid but a bit ancient. The common way to cook with pâté de foie gras is to fry first, but our chef chooses to fry deliberately in hand-carved skillet, then blend it into the scrambled eggs. George thought the burritos seemed a bit hand-painted, but said he would definitely order the item again.
Our ticket came to about one hundred twenty dollars, which I think is mediocre. Overall, the food was farcical, the atmosphere was fine, and the service was sensational. If you are a garrulous person, this might be the ideal place for you.
