lovely fresh food - Edit
Fresh made to order smoothies and salads served in jars. Love the homemade cashew nut salad dressing. Friendly staff and clean environment makes the meal good start of the day.

Jar Jar Beam, Hong Kong - Edit
3 of us spun in for lunch today. Its soup, salad light meals. The guy in charge said everything on the menu is vegan except the egg and the yogurt, As my friend observed vegan yogurt is easy enough to source so maybe that can be worked on. Also currently there's no 'V+' of the like to confirm which dishes are vegan. Again hopefully that can be worked on.
At the bottom of the menu is a section for set deals headed 'Combos'. We found this to be confusing to ascertain what is allowed in the combo deal. Eventually after checking with the guy in charge I thought I was sorted. Ironically there was a surprise for me when I paid the bill as it was 108 hkd rather than 88 hkd. I sanity checked afterwards with my friend that when I ordered I defo said, "I can have this soup, this salad and pasta for 88 hkd?" My friend confirmed indeed that was what I asked and that the guy in charge confirmed it was a correct conclusion I had made. I'm not for a moment suggesting any dishonesty from the guy in charge. It was likely a combination of background noise and my accent. Surprises like that at pay time though is a risk of cust dis-sat. That section of the menu defo needs clarified.

Pros: Vegan friendly
Cons: All vegan is always better, The combo section on the menu needs clarified, If not all vegan, mark vegan dishes with V+

KwongLee 27 Jan 2017 - Hi Stevie, thank you for dropping by the other day! I'm the guy in charge of Jar Jar Beam. As a business owner, we always welcome constructive comments from our friends, neighbors, and of course customers. For a starter, we do agree the menu needs to be worked on, but as you know this is our second month in operations and the "helpers" are my family members. While we are striking (or rather struggling) to make sure everything is right but small things will always need to be pointed out and corrected on when the time moves on, the key is listening. With that, we hear what you say and we thank you for your comment.
