呢一間瑞典餐廳見到好多人都畀好評,仲幾難訂吓😓今次第一時間搶訂,畀我訂到喇☺️dining city嘅午餐性價比十分之高👍288蚊包咗五道菜連好好食嘅麵包. 開胃菜係一個瑞典式蒸蛋上面放咗啲蟹肉同埋三文魚子,都有啲驚喜☺️之後就上咗一個麵包個麵包上面有啲白瓜子配咗一個牛油,擺盤好靚專登放咗支花喺麵包嘅旁邊😍之後係蔬菜嘅係一個鮑魚菇,配咗南瓜蓉😉之後主菜有鱈魚同埋牛腩畀我哋揀. 我哋兩個人每人揀咗一款. 牛腩有兩舊好淋👍鱈魚係包住一個羽衣甘藍,都煮得好滑🥰甜品係一個煙燻雪糕再加咗一啲citrus,幾特別嘅😚加咗六十幾蚊要咗一杯瑞典嘅咖啡配咗杏仁蛋糕仔,蛋糕仔幾好食咖啡普普通通啦😁用餐期間點咗兩杯白酒,一杯係紐西蘭嘅Sauvignon,另外一杯 Burgundy puligny-Montrachet 1er. 酒by class有D貴😅

見dining city 有做promotion $288 lunch set,哩個價真係唔駛諗即刻book. (後尾發現原來之前restaurant week個陣仲平)但食完我覺得lunch定價再進取D都仲得。訂咗13:30 結果早咗15分鐘到,雖然有吉位但係唔俾入住。我又覺得無問題,早到唔一定要招呼你住,始終坐低咗就會影響到佢哋做嘢。Overall食物質素食材配搭都好好,亦有北歐特式,不過未見好突出。老實講如果正價我又未必會encore。始終哩個價嘅fine dining唔會睇食物only, 環境服務整體體驗都好緊要,哩個價我有其他選擇,但係都值得一試嘅。關於服務呢,咁整體都好有禮貌嘅(雖然哩類餐廳哩D就基本嘢啦)咁今次我體驗都幾特別既。我main dish 揀咗魚,佢set咗把扒刀俾我我心諗咁特別既(之後知點解 ),then等咗好一陣個server 主動同我講唔好意思個魚咁耐都未出到,所以送咗杯紅酒俾我(其實我唔覺等咗咁耐)。無耐另一個server(佢似係sommelier )俾咗碟牛我,咁我咪話我叫咗魚喎,佢竟然問are you sure?哩個其實唔理你問得幾有禮貌都唔應該咁講

見dining city 有做promotion $288 lunch set,哩個價真係唔駛諗即刻book. (後尾發現原來之前restaurant week個陣仲平)但食完我覺得lunch定價再進取D都仲得。訂咗13:30 結果早咗15分鐘到,雖然有吉位但係唔俾入住。我又覺得無問題,早到唔一定要招呼你住,始終坐低咗就會影響到佢哋做嘢。

Overall食物質素食材配搭都好好,亦有北歐特式,不過未見好突出。老實講如果正價我又未必會encore。始終哩個價嘅fine dining唔會睇食物only, 環境服務整體體驗都好緊要,哩個價我有其他選擇,但係都值得一試嘅。

關於服務呢,咁整體都好有禮貌嘅(雖然哩類餐廳哩D就基本嘢啦)咁今次我體驗都幾特別既。我main dish 揀咗魚,佢set咗把扒刀俾我我心諗咁特別既(之後知點解 ),then等咗好一陣個server 主動同我講唔好意思個魚咁耐都未出到,所以送咗杯紅酒俾我(其實我唔覺等咗咁耐)。無耐另一個server(佢似係sommelier )俾咗碟牛我,咁我咪話我叫咗魚喎,佢竟然問are you sure?哩個其實唔理你問得幾有禮貌都唔應該咁講啦。咁我sure完佢就拎返入廚房,之後原本個server拎返碟牛嚟耍冧,問我介唔介意試埋個牛,個魚即刻再做返。就係咁,我就一個人試晒兩款main喇。 兩款都各有千秋。魚就有特式D,但我又幾欣賞佢處理個牛嘅手法,所以兩個人嚟叫晒兩個就最好啦。 最後上甜品餐具時,個sommelier 又擺錯位,不過今次擺完佢自己都覺得唔對路就調返啱。咖啡就french press整嘅,會送埋4粒餅去襯。我就無叫喇,隔離都幾間coffee shop,出去試其他好過。

ps: 食完先check返先知原來係Frantzen kitchen 個executive chef 原址開返。唔怪得坐低就feel到似曾相識,個chef熟口熟面啦。

Embla 是香港較少有的 Scandinavian Fine Dining。之前試過它(及其前身Frantzen's Kitchen) 的dinner tasting menu覺得很不錯。今次見到 Restaurant Week Winners Edition 用HK$248 就可以食到 lunch tasting menu, 真係好抵要試試。❧ Nordic Snack : Crab meat egg custard 用了蟹肉來熬湯去蒸蛋好鮮味。蛋嫩滑,上面蟹肉超多。❧ Sour milk bread Rye spelt 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻招牌 Sour milk bread 外形似 muffin。個皮超脆,內裡好鬆軟,加上好 creamy 的自家製牛油是絕配。❧ King Oyster Mushroom 👍🏻👍🏻杏鮑菇大件有啲口感,加上特濃toasted yeast 高湯,感覺有點似在吃牛扒。 ❧ Pan-fried Scallops 👍🏻帶子半生熟火喉剛剛好,thyme veloute creamy。不過略嫌 turnip 有少許苦。❧ Strawberry Sorbet 👍🏻👍🏻👍

Embla 是香港較少有的 Scandinavian Fine Dining。之前試過它(及其前身Frantzen's Kitchen) 的dinner tasting menu覺得很不錯。今次見到 Restaurant Week Winners Edition 用HK$248 就可以食到 lunch tasting menu, 真係好抵要試試。


❧ Nordic Snack : Crab meat egg custard
用了蟹肉來熬湯去蒸蛋好鮮味。蛋嫩滑,上面蟹肉超多。


❧ Sour milk bread Rye spelt 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
招牌 Sour milk bread 外形似 muffin。個皮超脆,內裡好鬆軟,加上好 creamy 的自家製牛油是絕配。


❧ King Oyster Mushroom 👍🏻👍🏻
杏鮑菇大件有啲口感,加上特濃toasted yeast 高湯,感覺有點似在吃牛扒。


❧ Pan-fried Scallops 👍🏻
帶子半生熟火喉剛剛好,thyme veloute creamy。不過略嫌 turnip 有少許苦。


❧ Strawberry Sorbet 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Pickled pinecone 酸酸甜甜,很配sorbert。但個人最欣賞是加了微甜少辣的粉紅花椒 meringue ,提升了整個甜品的複雜度及味道。


❧ Fika Coffee and Financier (Supplement $65)
Financier 外脆內軟是不錯的petit four,但咖啡就普普通通。

一間水準極高的瑞典Fine Dining餐廳。首先說說地點,這間餐廳位置在上環半山,當然沒有車位,揸車朋友可以停在路邊,只要不阻礙交通,我覺得抄牌的機會不是太高。食物質素和特色,這間是瑞典餐廳,其實跟一般西餐沒有大分別。但是他們每一道菜都用了進口瑞典天然素材,加上別具心思的鋪排和介紹,令到整個用餐經驗,提升到極點。大家不妨一試。

在上環一個不起眼嘅轉角,竟然有一家瑞典主廚開嘅fine dining 餐廳😍😍主廚兼主理人好型🤭😍感覺有啲似上次日本食嗰間Omakase,只要你想傾偈,老闆同其他員工輪住同你偈🤣乜都傾得除咗套餐外,我們仲另外點咗瑞典特色傳統sharing dish、Gubbrora第一道菜就被驚呆喇😱整整50克嘅Ossetra魚子醬啊😍,咁豪㗎咩❗真係一啲都唔孤寒😍平時喺外面買都要$1200一盒。而且老闆Jim仲為我們上咗關於魚子醬嘅課:魚子醬嘅歷史、產地、等級之分(頂級魚子醬-從幼魚到能夠成熟產卵最少要16年),更顯得這道菜嘅珍貴🧡。本來以為會有啲腥,但係卻非常清香!再配上北歐脆麵包和芬蘭伏特加,將我帶到當年坐喺斯德哥爾摩碼頭海濱嘅回憶🤤🤤第二道菜,睇嚟以為只係一個加咗魚子醬嘅撻,點知佢嘅層次非常豐富🤤🤤🤤,第一啖先係散發木之芽香氣濃郁且帶有辛辣嘅味道,冇諗到日本料理嘅香料可以用喺北歐菜式😋繼而係薄脆嘅撻皮加上用生蠔做嘅cream同嚟自挪威嘅北極蝦,最後口腔充滿Acipenser Baerii魚子醬濃郁嘅鮮味😋😋總之就係一個字,絕😍❗第三道菜「æbleskiver」係丹麥小吃,多以蘋果或蘋果醬作餡料

在上環一個不起眼嘅轉角,竟然有一家瑞典主廚開嘅fine dining 餐廳😍😍

主廚兼主理人好型🤭😍

感覺有啲似上次日本食嗰間Omakase,只要你想傾偈,老闆同其他員工輪住同你偈🤣乜都傾得

除咗套餐外,我們仲另外點咗瑞典特色傳統sharing dish、Gubbrora

第一道菜就被驚呆喇😱

整整50克嘅Ossetra魚子醬啊😍,咁豪㗎咩❗真係一啲都唔孤寒😍平時喺外面買都要$1200一盒。而且老闆Jim仲為我們上咗關於魚子醬嘅課:魚子醬嘅歷史、產地、等級之分(頂級魚子醬-從幼魚到能夠成熟產卵最少要16年),更顯得這道菜嘅珍貴🧡。

本來以為會有啲腥,但係卻非常清香!再配上北歐脆麵包和芬蘭伏特加,將我帶到當年坐喺斯德哥爾摩碼頭海濱嘅回憶🤤🤤

第二道菜,睇嚟以為只係一個加咗魚子醬嘅撻,點知佢嘅層次非常豐富🤤🤤🤤,第一啖先係散發木之芽香氣濃郁且帶有辛辣嘅味道,冇諗到日本料理嘅香料可以用喺北歐菜式😋繼而係薄脆嘅撻皮加上用生蠔做嘅cream同嚟自挪威嘅北極蝦,最後口腔充滿Acipenser Baerii魚子醬濃郁嘅鮮味😋😋總之就係一個字,絕😍❗

第三道菜「æbleskiver」係丹麥小吃,多以蘋果或蘋果醬作餡料嘅松餅球,大小如乒乓球。球裡面係蘋果木煙燻鱒魚配上琉璃苣,俾我嘅感覺有點啲似章魚燒,鱒魚非常鮮甜。

值得一提嘅係自家製嘅牛油受乳酪麵包。瑞典獨有嘅發酵奶麵包上加咗香烤嘅南瓜籽,再搭配自家製發酵48小時牛油,感覺到餐廳嘅用心。

主菜鴨胸,先將成隻鴨上嚟俾你睇🤤🤤秀色可餐🤭竟然有種好清新嘅感覺。

最後嘅甜品係自製菜籽油雪芭🤤加咗香草慕斯同蛋白脆餅口感非常豐富🧡 但係我最愛仲係配住咖啡嘅小餅乾,太香喇🤤🤤睇相回味起果種味道口水都要流

生日,週年一定要嚟😗女朋友/老婆一定好鐘意🤭🧡🧡🧡

最近想找一些人少安静的约会餐厅
Embla是香港少见的北欧菜fine dine
小小的门脸但是里面特别精致浪漫
是前米三餐厅的主厨在原址开的新店

北欧菜系的风格一贯是追求自然原味
但又有一些“离经叛道”的搭配设计
这家也不例外,用时令食材打造丰富感官体验

整个set每个步骤都有两个option
两个人刚好可以试所有不同的菜

1⃣️以清淡调味的前菜开启🔛

𫚕鱼片和青萝卜组成的未绽开的小花
顶部是原产地瑞典北部的鱼子酱
采自很小的三文鱼 所以颗粒非常小
味道和外观都特别refreshing,一口春天

青芦笋及羊肚菌的前菜是热盘
有浓浓坚果气息的豌豆泥和瓜子仁作点缀
扑面而来清新、泥土的气息

2⃣️Side dish是两道时令的海鲜

🦐造型独特的海鳌虾 来自挪威
发酵的芦笋汁带来青草香气
和虾的鲜味搭配的恰到好处
还有颗粒饱满均匀的泪珠豌豆

鲽鱼这一道也是配了白芦笋
用丹麦橙酒和菜籽油提味,很特别!

3⃣️主菜多300可以升级A5和牛西冷,算是比较值的!

🦆鸭胸肉是熟成的做法
会在开始zui后一步烤制之前端上桌来给你看一眼
做好之后的鸭胸油香四溢
鸭肉软绵 鸭皮油润,一点都不会腻

🥩牛排是品质极高的A5
西冷是我很喜欢的部位
Juicy且有肉筋,口感丰富
又不会像ribeye那么多油脂
咖啡和肉桂酱的搭配也是新奇又美味
能让油脂丰富的和牛多一丝香料的独特风味

🥂餐厅的wine pairing也很有水准
每一杯都很适合当下的菜品
入口顺滑有回味
不能喝酒还有sparkling tea可以选

小食和甜品都是北欧风格的
将北欧人民在节日会吃的点心做些许创新改良

顺便想要夸夸有一位女性店员
中粤英三语都特别流畅
能把每一道菜都讲解得非常清楚
令整个用餐体验特别好

丹麦煎饼球由甜转咸,酿入蛋黄酱、白酱油以及鳟鱼片,是主厨的巧思与灵感所在,点缀苹果木枝熏制过的鳟鱼,是北欧版的章鱼小丸子。

sour milk bread/pumpkin seed/almond butter
不打头阵,而是放在席中,这种安稳又妥帖的安排自是对自家面包的自信,尖可触及的温热酥脆的外衣,搭配南瓜子恰到好处的香气,内部组织香软绵密,再抹上带着杏仁香气的黄油,在酥脆与绵软之间模糊了边界,妙哉。

还有一道北欧的腌渍过的鰤鱼,那股鲜美更为浓缩,带着轻微的酵感。鱼肉被细细沾上了一圈细细的青萝卜碎与接骨木花丝,因应于此便成了喉舌尾韵里浅淡的蔬果香与花香,鱼身上沾着的是北欧的鱼子酱,香气与咸鲜,让这道北欧渍鱼更层叠了多重风味。

my experience is suboptimal as I was seated too close to a table of four. I really wish I could enjoy the food in a better ambiance. The restaurant has plenty of seats so why crowd guests together. I am completely overpowered by noise and commotion. a restaurant at this caliber should really be more sensitive - I can't say I enjoyed my dining experience.

北歐料理 (Nordic cuisine) 是講究食材的原地與新鮮,其精髓就在於減少過度的烹調,讓食材的原味得以保存。處了食材,正式的北歐fine dine餐廳出名的是對細節的追求,讓顧客的味蕾和視覺一場靈魂的偶遇。

Embla位於上環,地方不大,藏藍色的裝潢令人感覺到品味與經典的匯合。聚餐前我上網仔細看過wine list,選擇很多,有很多小眾葡萄酒品牌和產地,相信餐廳老闆/主廚是愛酒的人,但價位不低,帶酒的開瓶費也昂貴。Wine pairing的酒沒有顯示在menu上,於是我根據預算挑了兩款酒去搭配食物。到達餐廳後,sommelier熱情介紹後,我和我的朋友決定品嘗pairing options, 原因是因為一款的fortified wine有可愛的鴨子酒標(女人有時候就是這麼隨興)和那是我還沒有嘗試過的酒款。
這篇專欄我主要分享當天品嘗的酒,餐廳一流的服務與食物的精緻就留待以後再分享。

一開始我們喝的是Charles Heidsieck Brut Reserve NV,香檳做aperitif基本是定律。香檳杯子很好,形狀可以仔細看到泡沫慢慢地升起來,酒液的顏色上比一般入門版的NV的淡黃色深一點點,相信是陳年酒使用的比例比較高。 品酒有三大步驟:第一是色 (觀察外觀 ),然後就是香(欣賞香氣) 和味(品嚐味道 )。看完顏色後,就是鼻子和味蕾的品嘗。氣味是比較濃鬱的蜜糖、牛油麵包、果仁的味道,酒味醇厚、優雅, 泡沫棉細,是非常有活力、美好的享受。

第二款喝的是 Tenuta delle Terre Nere, Etna Bianco 2020,是義大利Sicily的Etna的白酒。葡萄品種是local grapes,酒液是淡黃色,聞起來很清新,有淡淡優雅的白花和礦物香氣,味道除了比較平衡的酸度外(檸檬、橘子),還有杏仁和礦物和微微的熟青蘋果和蜜糖的甜味。Etna是一個備受矚目的新興葡萄酒產區,也是一個十分特別的產區,它是歐洲最高的活火山。火山噴發給Etna帶來獨特的黑色火山岩土壤,能為葡萄酒帶來標誌性的礦物質感,讓Etna的葡萄酒脫穎而出。同時,正是由於獨特的火山土壤,根瘤蚜 (Phylloxera) 沒能在這裡肆虐,所以Etna種植的是未經嫁接的葡萄藤,大部分都是非常老的葡萄藤。

第三款喝的是Bodega Menade “Adorado”,是西班牙的fortified wine。它的鴨子酒標很吸眼球,酒瓶胖胖的也很可愛,跟瓶裡的酒液的風格很不一樣。Fortified wine (加強酒) 是在釀造葡萄酒的過程中,加入高度烈酒終止發酵,所以酒精含量比普通葡萄酒要高,ABV一般在15%-22%左右。這款酒的釀酒方式跟Sherry很像,都是用solera system,但產區和葡萄品種不同。我朋友第一次喝加強酒,她不習慣那種深沉的陳年酵母氣息、氧化陳年的柑橘類水果和堅果味道,她覺得太“嗆”。我個人很喜歡這種漂亮琥珀色的酒液,帶有陳年酵母、口感圓潤深邃的nutty味道,留在口腔裡還可以慢慢回味。

P.S. 忍不住要分享第一次吃鹿肉,Embla的盘子很美

【 First and foremost, my modest knowledge on the Nordic fine-dining scene 】

Serving. Don’t know since when Nordic cuisine came to the forefront of gastronomy.  To the best of my knowledge, it’s perhaps after Noma. But more recently it might be Chef Rasmus Kofoed and his Geranium in Copenhagen that caught your attention.  Otherwise perfect meals, one small thing I don’t really like about many of those Nordic restaurants is they serve a lot of smaller bites you need to pick up by hand throughout the course.  I prefer fork and knife when dining at as refined a place as Geranium.  But today most were fork and knife moments.  

Ingredients.  Nordic countries are well known for severe winters and chefs may at times be desperate for suitable local ingredients.  So the chances are, we can taste something we less frequently come across, some rarities hidden in the forest that long ago were survival food.  

Exoticism.  Eating exotic things seems to be a worldwide phenomenon. Offal has already been commonplace.  Now we talk about brains or insects or even something as outrageous as soup made from mud.  Extending from conventionally using broader types of ingredients, serving unusual food becomes less unusual in Nordic culture.  Personally I have no problem eating exotic things but there should be a reason for those ingredients to be used, and also a limit to any idiosyncrasy chefs would like to demonstrate.  For example, it is perfectly acceptable that some ants that tasted like citrus are used in South American cooking, as they are functional as seasoning in lieu of the fruit.  But putting a bowl of live crawling woodlice in front of you then pouring hot tom yum to kill them is another thing (Alchemist in Copenhagen).  I sincerely hope someone can enlighten me what’s the point of killing woodlice in hot soup other than a blatant drama 🤔. Gladly Embla presented their food in a way I can say elegant.  

 【 My experience at Embla 】

Embla is a cosy space with large windows expanded on to the floor. Although located at the back of a row, on a sunny day like today, a right amount of sunlight can come through, land on the dark panels, wood chairs and empyrean blue seats and light up the whole place.  You’ll feel delighted and relaxed dining here.  

If you’re a first-timer, I suggest you choose counter seats where you can see the actions and talk to the chefs.  You should be ‘warned’ that you will taste something delicious but different from what you experience at French and Italian eateries.  This Nordic restaurant presents you with a taste profile quite distinct and the nuance, of course, comes from the tradition of the north that is simple and severe.  You may take a bit of time to appreciate the dainties Embla has to offer if you’re used to Caprice or Gaddi’s.

【 Sav Sparkling Birch Sap Wine 】

To enjoy full Nordic experience, my friend decided the meal be fully Nordic, including wines, despite my hesitation — Embla has an extensive and impressive wine inventory for a small restaurant.  You don’t have to restrict yourself to certain wines.

Sav is a small production - as you can read from the label.  Birch sap wine told another story of winemaking. The much less sugar content of the sap created a wine that’s woody, dry and faintly leathery, almost devoid of fruit.  Of course, there was no fruit yet it let you taste as if  sucrose-like among the minerality of the wine. It meant a rather one of a kind experience especially it was effervescent.  And that’s quite suitable for some heavier, more oily, and slightly sweet dishes. 


【 Cured yellow tail, spring radish, vendace roe from Kalix, rosenkvitten & lemon verbena 】

The chef brought us straight to appetiser.  As far as I could remember the original Frantzén in Stockholm, the serving - tableware, counter setting and the way food was presented - spoke of some influence from Japan while the food was essentially Nordic. Here in Hong Kong Embla stood on their own and talked the unquestionably European language.

The first course had the radiating sweetness from the cured yellowtail accompanied by a blooming spring from the thinly sliced radish.  Added to the fish was the savoury and umami vendace roe.  The whole thing was then immersed in a clear broth infused with lemon verbena, the aroma of which came to me crystal clear and that brought the refreshing appetiser to a new height.  
 

【 Roe deer tartare, ättika emulsion, semi dried carrots, deep fried lichens, browned butter & parsley  】

In spite that it was in a Swedish white vinaigrette (ättika) emulsion, the roe deer tartare did not have excessive level of tart and acidity. Instead it tasted light and the seasoning was surprisingly mild and appropriate with beurre noisette and parsley adding an extra layer of flavours. The semi cooked carrots placed in circle stole the show with the special half-soft half-chewy texture and subtle sweetness, on top of which lay the deep-fried lichens scattered.  Finally a few pedals of marigold painted a picture of fall on a sunny spring day.

As an aside, lichens are highly nutritious.  This plant is winter survival food in the forest as it does not wither beneath the snow.  In the wintry wild you can shovel away the snow and find some lichens for food.  Now they can be served as some delicious crisps complementary to the cured fish dish.  


【 Sour milk bread “Rye, spelt, barley, oats” & home made butter  】  

The multi-grain bread showed quite a character of its own.  Tasty it was, I found it a bit powdery and over-baked.  The sour milk butter gave its comforting tenderness on your palate and generously expressed noticeable saltiness.

The small Jerusalem artichoke sat obediently on the puree made from some smaller offshoots of the tuber and the chef assured us that no food was wasted — another Nordic tradition I guessed. The small artichoke gave off strong flavourful sweetness that I thought came from the carefully applied miso, while staying in a deeply savoury mushroom bouillon complemented by the crunchiness of the sunflower seeds.   The falling marigold, on the other hand, turned the dish-scape into a golden pond reminiscent of late autumn.

For the mains, we chose a Solaris wine.  You can always Google what varietal Solaris is and so I will stick to describing the taste of the wine here. Refreshingly fruity and flagrant on the nose, the wine effused dryness that you would expect of a fine young white on the palate with clear and crispy tang of the skin.

Not complex but impressive with the bitterness from the skin and fresh fruit, Vexebo was a felicitous wine and went well with the mains forthcoming.

Well seasoned, a rather salty skrei almost reached the point like cured fish.  The snow white skrei was incredibly firm and tender.  In the Sandefjordsmor (butter cream sauce) bathed the leeks and razor clams with the company of generous quantity of pike roe, all of them being strongly flavoursome.   Slightly too salty for my taste, this first main stratified diverse flavours in harmony though.


【 Second Main — Roasted yellow chicken, smoked velouté, Nordic cabbage pudding & rapeseed oil 】

The white meat was cooked to perfection and seasoned to the proper extent that I could still taste the nuanced sweetness of the chicken.  Subtle smokiness from the velouté — more a gravy — escalated the level of this main.  The Nordic cabbage pudding came with a deep green flavour, adding some substance to the lean chicken meat. Inside the cabbage could some meatiness be noted because of some liver (?) added.  


【 Sea buckthorn sorbet, orange cake, meringue, preserved orange & tuile 】

Sea buckthorn sorbet tasted straightforwardly yet faintly orangey — not the real orange but as orangey as in orange ice-cream, albeit in lack of glittering glamour in most other fine ice-creams. The sorbet tried not to complicate and did not intend to spoil you neither but it tasted plainly delicious.  Deep beneath the sea buckthorn sorbet had such a unpretentious, subtle and calm orangey taste that no wonder it went well with anything orange - orange cake and preserved orange, and then a crispy baked wafer known as tuile huddled up to the sorbet 😌.  This was not a flashy, gaudy sweet that right away gave you sensual happiness.  But the taste hinted the care and perseverance of peoples from the far north.  The more you tasted it, the more you got out of it, and that deserved your slow enjoyment with care.    


【 Inspiration of “Fika” —— “Christmas Tree” Financier and Coffee 】

Fika represented more than just coffee time with sweets at Embla.  Here we had financier embraced with spruce - the Christmas tree.  The spruce tips gave the delectable financier a subtle flagrance, not to mention those spiky tips were full of vitamin C.  The texture of these almond teacakes was spot on, striking a right balance between too powdery (too dry) and too soggy (too moist).  The taste was undoubtedly French with a Nordic twist.

Coffee was French-pressed and served free flow.  Taste and body of the coffee were on the light side but it was the right coffee after a hearty meal to go with the Christmas tree financier.

【 A Lazy Walk on A Sunny Day 】Today’s leisure lunch lasted for 2 and a half hours. I didn’t realise it was that long till I watched my watch as I was totally absorbed in it.  There’re so many things to taste and see, and so much to talk about with the chefs and staff.  Everything made you comfortable and justifiably insouciant.  It was like a jazzy lazy walk on a warm sunny day deep in my heart.  Can’t say enough of this one fine moment in life.

Highly recommended by a friend! We tried the full embla experience. The difference between the full and the short experience is that you don’t need to choose either the turbot or A5 Wagyu for the main. You can have both! The first time I tried contemporary Nordic fine dining. The environment is comfortable.

The first time I tried contemporary Nordic fine dining. The environment is comfortable. I am not a seafood lover and actually I am a bit scared of seafood because of their smell, texture and looks😂 but their fish and lobster dishes didn’t scare me away and really impressed me. The presentation is good and every dish is like a work of art. We have the lingonberry sorbet for the dessert. I love it! It tastes sour and perfect with the brown cheese.

We can’t wait for their winter menu!!

4/5Was a little disappointed this time coming back to try their dinner. My favourite bread is burnt, sparkling water with bitter unfresh lime, langoustine too salty. Of course I mean they taste nice, but over all just not much surprise as the first time I’m here. Don’t see the chef there that night maybe that’s the reason? I will still come back for next time to see will I get back what I experienced/ tasted on the first time.
