To celebrate the Olympics, which opened last week, a cafe in  Mongkok has created a series of flower teas based on the five colours of the logo for the Games - blue (Europe), yellow (Asia), black (Africa), green (Australia) and red (America).

The cafe, which opened in  Mongkok's Dundas Street cafe hub about two months ago, offers a  variety of flower teas including the 12 zodiac signs series and smoothies imported from the United States.

The  cafe plans to update its menu constantly  and is going to serve southern French cuisine in the near future.

While customers can order the dishes shown on the menu, they can also  request the special dishes and pasta of the day.

5th Floor Cafes

Flat B, 5/F, Ko's House,

577 Nathan Road, Mongkok

Tel: 2770 4688

Opening hours: noon to 3am

1. Low fat, non-sugar mixed berry cake ($50) Rating: 4.5/5 YP: It is only available  at weekends. The cake  is very tasty with a nice egg  flavour. The strawberry topping is very fresh. The amount of cream is  just right.

2. Cream cheese and bacon pasta ($38) Rating: 4/5 YP: The cream cheese and bacon  are not too rich, which makes a good balance for dry pasta.

3. Olympics  flower tea (Africa) ($40) Rating: 3/5 YP: It contains rosehips and tastes a bit sour.

4. Raspberry smoothie ($40) Rating: 4/5 YP: It's very smooth. The ice cream and fruit are well blended.

Overall Rating: 4/5 YP: Though the prices  are a bit high  for this area, the quality of the food and drinks  is good. The environment is comfortable and relaxing, with nice sofas. There is also a non-smoking area in  the cafe.
