社企法國餐廳

首先要多謝 Open Rice  送贈的 「2013 香港美酒佳餚巡禮」嘉賓證及  VIP Pass，讓我可以參與這次盛事，況且今年還是初次移師至全新場地，中環新海濱舉行，不用過江便能品嚐到美食，實在令人興奮。由於這次是筆者首度參與，所以都有點劉姥姥入大觀園的感覺，攤位實在多得令人眼花繚亂。和食友甜姐兒逛了一會兒，兩個饞嘴鬼已吃得大半飽，見到 La Parole 的攤位，醒起這家就是位於上環柏廷坊，以法國菜作主打的餐廳。由於早前才看過龍五兄的介紹，所以對這餐廳也有點印象。據說 La Parole 是家社會企業概念餐廳，店裡收入扣除成本開支後，均全數撥作營運「庭恩兒童中心」，幫助低收入家庭有語言障礙的小朋友，實在非常之有意義，值得支持。細看有甚麼選擇：黑松露野菌濃湯、西班牙風乾火腿配蜜瓜、香燉安格斯牛肉配薯蓉、香煎鵝肝配焦糖青蘋果，款款都好吸引。和食友商議後，決定以兩張 VIP Pass 點燉牛肉及煎鵝肝各半份。香燉安格斯牛肉配薯蓉，牛肉以慢火燉到幾乎入口即化，吃起來幼嫩滑溜，用來伴入口即溶的薯蓉，再配埋香濃的醬汁，味道果真不錯。至於香煎鵝肝配焦糖青蘋果，即叫即煎的鵝肝，味道濃郁，質感細

 至於香煎鵝肝配焦糖青蘋果，即叫即煎的鵝肝，味道濃郁，質感細膩滑潤，入口更彌漫著淡淡的鵝肝香，伴上甜甜酸酸的焦糖青蘋果同吃，夠醒胃。

    It was my first time going to a Wine and Dine event Thanks to Openrice’s Wine and Dine guest passes.

    Before you go in, you are given a starter bag which contains a wine glass and a booklet of coupons for free wine and food tasting.

    There are two types of food coupons depending on your pass, the ones I got were VIP coupons which entitles you to full portions of food according to the information and the normal ones are worth $10 per coupon.

    It was confusing at first because I have not attended this before and some booths were mind boggled by these coupons, some treated these VIP coupons for half portions, and some treated them as being worth $10 so I did not the coupons on these booths.

    It was good seeing La Parole at Wine and Dine because I have yet to try their restaurant.

     Not keen on beef but just felt like trying it.
    The mash with the beef was really nice, it was dense and silky with a strong potato taste and the beef sauce was rich.

     The foie gras was nicely done, it was gently cooked leaving it soft and silky on the inside with a firm texture while the tart caramelized apples complimented it nicely balancing the heavyiness of the foie gras.

    在我而言，生日飯，不在於價值，背後意義大於一切。無論是我的生日或朋友的生日，能一起開開心心吃飯，才是最重要的。不過，當這一頓生日飯，還可幫到有需要的人，就更有意義了。好友是個善心女子，閒時就會去做義工，幫忙他人。和她吃生日飯，我只想了一會兒，就決定地點是La Parole或尚善。因為這兩間餐廳和同系列的Leonaidas，在扣除營運成本後，收益都會撥捐庭恩兒童中心，我相信，這應該是一份最好的生日禮物了吧？坐下點了菜，聊著天，餐前小吃很快就到了。以哈密瓜片包著西班牙香腸，吃法和西班牙火腿相像，但味道和感覺卻很不同，香腸的咸香較強，但口感我則喜歡西班牙火腿，而且西班牙火腿那獨等的果香是香腸所沒有的，不過這餐前小吃由於是免費的，所以絕對收貨。La Parole的麵包是自家製的，無論牛油麵包或合桃龍眼包都好吃。邊吃麵包邊說著說著，咀巴沒有一刻停過，很快，頭盤已經來到了。Scrambled eggs with lobster aroma, smoked salmon and premium virgin dill olive oil，在軟滑的炒蛋之上，是香濃的龍蝦汁和肥美的煙三文魚，把蛋和龍蝦汁

     Scrambled eggs with lobster aroma, smoked salmon and premium virgin dill olive oil，在軟滑的炒蛋之上，是香濃的龍蝦汁和肥美的煙三文魚，把蛋和龍蝦汁一併放入口，蛋香都被濃郁的龍蝦汁所升華了。咦？我好像忘了煙三文的存在，當蛋和龍蝦汁如此出色，煙三文魚都變成配角了。

     當這Spanish ham, melon, eggplant and black olive flower pot style送到我們面前時，老實說，我也有點動容了，因為這道菜的presentation原來是朵花！把spanish ham卷成玫瑰花瓣的模樣，再以較硬的哈蜜瓜片卷著和固定，底部以茄子蓉承托，實在美呆了！

    其實之前也在這裡吃過一次spanish ham，因為好吃，所以今天才再叫，但實在沒想過今天賣相會那麼精美漂亮。女孩子生日收花，想必一定高興，總廚的這一個改進，實在太窩心了！

    萬般不願地把玫瑰花解體，一片哈密瓜包著一片火腿來吃，火腿的油脂和甘香，還有那獨特的果香，在口腔中完全表露無遺，或許，幸福就是這麼簡單吧？

     La Parole的湯我一向很喜歡，今天特地叫了一個4 course set，為的就是這個Cold cucumber soup with mint and lobster。青綠色的凍湯，全因主要材料是薄荷和青瓜，帶著兩者的清香，以凍湯形式更是把那芳香發揮得淋漓盡致。龍蝦肉則提供了肉香，使這個湯味道不會太寡，絕對是驚喜之作。

     喝過好湯，接下來當然是主菜了。Iberico pork chop and tomato stewed with vegetables from provence，豬扒用的不是普通的貨色，而是以黑毛豬種來做成豬扒，肉香真的與別不同，在雪藏豬扒橫行的年代，這件「豬有豬味」的豬扒，更來得難能可貴。

     友人因為沒吃過sweetbread，所以特要點了Rolls of veal and sweetbread with grenaille potatos and truffle gravy sauce來一試sweetbread的味道。La Parole的sweetbread沒有預期的重口味，咬下去的感覺告訴我這是內臟，但舌頭卻沒有傳來預期中的濃郁內臟羶味，如果你想試試甚麼是sweetbread，這裡絕對是入門的好選擇。

    小牛肉則無甚特別，相比之下，豬扒絕對勝上一籌。

     最後當然是甜品時間，Mille feuilles of red wine strawberry的千層酥做得頗鬆脆，吉士也夠滑，帶點酒香的士多啤梨也很討好，是水準是作。

     可能由於訂檯時有提過這是一頓生日飯吧，Cuteness of "mignardises"來到的時候已經插上蠟燭，寫上Happy Birthday字句，看到壽星女驚喜的一刻，頓時覺得今天一切安排也是值得的。

    Cuteness of "mignardises"就好像迷你的甜品併盤一樣，共五款不同甜點，滿足視覺，也滿足貪心的你。五款迷你甜點，相信總有一款合你心水吧？

     有些人會希望朋友請客生日飯，當然愈貴愈好，有些人則相反，會因為不好意思而不想吃太貴，友人正是後者。不過，當能享用美食之餘，還能做善事，不安感覺頓時一掃而空，吃，也吃得心安理得。

    在此再向友人說聲生日快樂，永遠幸福快樂。

       The amuse bouche was a very petite canapé of tuna and tomato tart with mint leave. Quite a refreshing start.

      Bread Basket
      La Parole's bread basket was aromatic! I immediately started digging in by taking a raisin bread. The raisin bread was soft with crunchy rim and had a chocolaty taste with it.

       Lobster Salad with Peach
      The salad is a mix of chopped lobster and peach with slices of peach at the top. My lobster's portion was good and there was a balanced taste between the fresh juicy lobster and the sweet peaches. The salad was however not as refreshing as I thought it would be. I regretted not getting the Foie Gras with Cherry.

       Truffle Mushroom Consomme
      The dish came in devilishly aromatic with only one slice of winter truffle shaving! There was also some truffle paste at the bottom, but the aroma was mainly from the truffle shaving. The consommé looked oily but wasn't feelingly heavy on the palate. The truffle tasted consommé was an intense flavourable bowl. Delicious!

       Grilled Truffle Beef with Tomato and Heart of Carrot
      The presentation was colourful and cute with some hearts of carrot. The presentation feels very homey, as I have made this carved carrots at home before lol. The ribeye was in great texture, very succulent and bouncy. Great dish! If it was not my friend's main, I would down it right away.

       Milk Lamb with Saffron Sauce and Crushed Potatoes
      My milk lamb was marvellous too! The lamb was perfectly grilled to give a crispy charred outer and a juicy, fat melting and tender pink inner. The saffron sauce was a good pair with the lamb but I would want some mint sauce for my lamb as well. The crushed potatoes was quite finely done, so it's more like potato mash, but it was not buttery enough.

       Surprise Chocolate Ball
      The beautifully plated chocolate ball was presented with a whisky flame pour on top. The chocolate shell was made with milk chocolate, covered within was some smooth cream with blueberry jams and a crispy pastry layer at the bottom. Each spoonful was pretty sweet but was balanced by the strong whisky. This was a good dessert to end the night.

       Macarons was served at last as a little gift from La Parole. The macarons are new products from La Parole which are available for sale in the restaurant. The macaron was quite chewy but the shell was empty and detach from the filling. La Parole's macaron definitely has rooms for improvements.

          I am always a fan of La Parole, not only off their amazing food and the story behind is very meaningful as they are Social Enterprise.  This time they hosted a wine dinner, French food with wines, it’s heaven!
           
          Party starts right away when I arrived, waitress serving around with some welcome snacks and different wines to go with them.  The one with scallop is amazing, scallop was slightly cooked.  Only the welcome snacks wow me already.
           
          Then the dinner begins, starter is “Mache” Salad with Smoked Salmon and Goat Cheese Cream, pairing with Scamandre White.  Cheese always goes well with White Wine.  I loved this beautiful dish, the salad balance out the rich taste of the goat cheese and smoked salmon.
           
          Main course is Premium Spanish Ham Tube with Baby Salad and Savoy Croustille and the Challans Duck Breast in Red Wine Sauce with Vegetables and truffle mashed potatoes, both pairing with the Scamandre Red.  The famous French dish Challans Duck Breast is perfectly cooked, crispy and juicy.  The red wine sauce is being well seasoning.
           
          I am already very tipsy, this fresh dessert Raspberry Vanilla Tart with Strawberry Sorbet wakes me up a little lol.
           
          I will join again their wine dinner for defo!

            It was raining heavily and we decided to try this one while we walked by the building.

            My mood drops expotentially when I see the environment. It is quite poorly decorated indeed for a French restaurant.

            Food:
            Girl friend's FROG LEG
            Average but the soup on it is too spicy and it look the favors from the main

            My FOIE GRA
            Overcooked. The side dishes are quite nice though, good combination of sea salt and salad, foie gra paste is light and not oily. They really have a problem of distracting the main food

            Gf's LAMB RACK
            Nothing special at all

            My RAVIOLI
            Overall dish is good except that the scallop is again overcooked. Even the paired Pinot Grigio doesn't help much.

            Desserts were alright luckily I didn't order the rack, it looks weird

            雖然香港餐廳林立，但當中會將收益回饋社會的，可說少之又少，而La Parole正是當中行善最樂的餐廳，他們的創辦人更是非常有心，除了經營餐廳外，他們還有售賣比利時朱古力老品牌的Leonidas，並且同樣將收益撥捐有語言障礙的兒童的庭恩兒童中心，而這中心百分之七十的兒童獲學費減免或全免，其餘亦只會收取低廉的學費，所以當大家品嚐這兩大品牌的食物時，也是在行善中。最近，非常有幸受到邀請，出席了Leonidas一百周年的派對，同時慶祝Leonidas及品嚐La Parole Crossover Leonidas 兩大品牌的佳餚，實在令人興奮。首先由Leonidas的行政總監及香港區品牌負責人細說歷史及將來，從而更了解多了關於Leonidas、La Parole及庭恩兒童中心 的背景及關係，兼且經過一輪問答遊戲後便進入了品嚐佳餚時間。首先，來了一籃麵包，是自家製的，入口熱烘烘又鬆軟，其中有一款「桂圓合桃麵包」，甜甜又有咬口，越吃越滋味。接著的餐前小吃很特別，當大家聽見忌廉芝士配青口及田螺時，定必感到膩滯，但味道卻來得清新，原來想像及品嚐的差別可以差別很大，而且更可將忌廉芝士塗在麵包上吃，不錯的小

             不久，正式進入晚宴的第一道頭盤，「鵝肝伴黑朱古力橙皮條二重奏」，賣相已令人欣喜，煎得外脆可口的鵝肝配上朱古力醬汁時，又不會過於膩滯，旁邊的橙片又可令味道清新一點，美味。

             接著的「奶油磨菇湯配白朱古力栗子泡沫」一來到，嗅覺已被濃濃的松露味所籠罩著，濃杰度適中，口感滑溜，而白朱古力栗子泡沫味道雖輕微，但卻帶出了點點的栗子甜，混和在一起實在好喝。

             主菜有兩款，喜愛牛肉的我當然選擇了這款「牛肉方塊伴松露薯蓉」，擺盤實在可愛得很，大家會否覺得那牛扒有點像心形呢？牛扒的生熟程度約六成，肉味濃郁肉汁又豐富，內裡更呈嫩紅色，實在非常之吸引。旁邊的方塊薯蓉更是非常可口，以兩片硬芝士夾著軟滑的薯蓉，一口咬下，芝士與薯蓉混合，還透出濃厚的松露味，令人一試難忘，整體而言，雖然簡單，但非常美味。

             本來是有甜品的，但因我有事需要提早離去，便喝了一杯這兒的名物「熱朱古力」。香味濃郁，質感順滑，甜度適中，比很多地方的水準不知高出多少倍，令人十分滿足。

             是晚真的很盡興，能參加了一個既有意義又有歷史價值的派對，平常我也不時去Leonidas買朱古力吃，現在更可到此享受美味的午餐或晚餐，想起也興奮。

              好味社企法國菜
              2013-03-14 285 views
              今天特別約埋同事到上環幫襯這間由社企開嘅法國餐廳, 之前都已經睇過食評話呢道D菜色好食, 同埋知道餐廳背後嘅故事, 就更加想去幫襯. 由於知道呢間餐廳經常爆滿, 我地已經好醒目晨早訂定位. 去到餐廳坐低不夠10秒已經有人來招呼, 細看MENU 最後我點咗以下3款菜色 :松露炒滑蛋第一眼看見這個三角形狀的烤麵包，就令我想返當年旅行去過法國嘅巴黎鐵塔；而松露與滑蛋的混合，松露味突出之餘，也保留了滑蛋的鮮味，各有各自的特性。法式鹹香豬肉配煎三文魚三文魚肉質幼嫩, 而魚的分量也足以令人飽肚, 估不到配上鹹香豬肉一起吃, 味道特別感覺十分清新. Dessert Symphony甜品三重奏分別有紅桑子枝豆慕絲、忌廉薄脆和草莓忌廉。從未試過紅桑子配蛋糕枝豆慕絲 慕絲部份很軟滑, 亦同時可以一次試到三層不同慕絲的味道; 而忌廉薄脆, 味道不錯，忌廉很輕盈; 最後草莓忌廉, 草莓好大粒亦很新鮮, 草莓忌廉兩者味道混合一起, 好像吃著士多啤梨雪糕嘅感覺。總括而然，食物方面水準真的不錯，環境舒適，服務也殷勤，整個用餐氣氛都很好，而且又極具義意，實在要推薦一下俾給大家。

              #香港餐厅周# 第二回:大失所望
              2013-03-11 400 views
              这家餐厅是一家慈善性质的餐厅,所有盈余全部捐献给一个儿童慈善基金. 环境其实香港不错的, 虽然是楼上餐厅,但是相当宽敞,而且其实地理位置也还行,从中环地铁站走15分钟,上环走5分钟即达. 不过参加餐厅周只有固定的一个套餐选择而且价钱也只是便宜20元而已.生意倒是异常火爆,全满. 餐前面包是新鲜出炉热气腾腾的核桃包, 异常好吃( 最后证明是整顿饭最出色的一部分) 前菜是帕尔玛火腿蔬菜色拉: 火腿不错, 虽然不是特别高级的货色,不过还蛮新鲜的,倒是蔬菜色拉略显粗糙,而且完全没有调味主菜是煎鸡: 等了大概20分钟才上,吃了一口我和朋友便异口同声地抱怨,这鸡实在煎的过头了,干得已经没有味道了, 勉强吃了几口实在觉得无法忍受, 我们便向领班提出意见, 一名男服务员还是态度很好,先是连声道歉继而提出帮我们重新作一份. 我们也就接受又等了20分钟终于拿到了重新出炉的鸡,这次煎的嫩了很多,也能吃出肉质, 不过朋友的那份似乎过于生了些. 但是鸡本身是冰鲜鸡,所以味道真的很一般. 甜品是三重奏: 提拉米苏很失败, 白巧克力莫斯不错很滑而且很香浓的巧克力味,还有一个饼干一般.茶还不错. 服务参半.我们到的时

              茶还不错.
              服务参半.我们到的时候登了好久才有人招呼,而且可能生意太好服务不太到位.另外我们亲眼见到有个服务员上菜时不小心把盆栽碰到了甜品 （我们就坐在她上菜的放花盆的桌子的旁边），,结果他发现后还是直接把食物端给其他顾客,大大扣了印象分.

              综上所述,我做回头客的可能就很低了.

              一月二日 (星期三)

              不知不覺來到二月中，寫此文時，剛好在這裡訂了枱，來一個開心星期五!
              回想起上次來這裡聚餐，原來已是年頭的事
              之前去了兩次同集團的尚善，就在同一大廈的樓上
              這一回法式開年聚，是應陳兄之邀，來嚐嚐大廚的手藝
              不厭其煩，也要說說這集團的背景:

              La Parole與尚善同屬於一社會企業營運之餐廳，除了這兩間，還有大家較耳熟的Leonidas朱古力店
              集團的利潤會全數撥捐一非牟利機構 - 庭恩兒童中心
              http://www.benjiscentre.org.hk
              這慈善機構成立於2004年，是香港第一家(到目前為止也是唯一的)提供單一語言治療服務的機構
              目前，在此中心接受定期一對一服務的語障兒童超過二百多名，其中接近百分之七十的兒童獲學費減免，甚至是全免，餘下的，也只是收取低於巿面一半的學費
              這八年間，中心已幫助過超過千多名語障兒童，現在仍有約一百五十名兒童正輪候語言治療服務
              所以大家來這裡花的每一分毫，也是在做善事! 真的十分有意義

              說起La Parole，其實我們數年前也曾光顧過其舊店，老實說，當時水準只是一般
              如今，遷址中上環，也換了一位有心有力的大廚，新人事，總會令人有點期望
              聽說大廚喜歡親力親為，由買料,製作手造意粉,麵包等，也是自己做，頂多也只靠助手幫上一兩把

               食物如何呢? 現在就談談
              午市提供的套餐，前菜,主菜各一是基本，還配以甜品和飲品各一，訂價不用二百，若質素好的話，不算貴了
              現實環境裝潢美觀，挺光猛的，給人煥然一新的感覺

               先來的麵包籃，麵包也有數款，上文曾提及，這裡的麵包也是自家製的
              入口還是熱烘烘的，質感軟綿，塗上牛油，加添一份香口味道

               前菜選了青豆湯
              湯頭十分濃稠，還吃到實實在在的青豆蓉(而不是渣)，口感細緻
              味道香甜，而且份量不少，實在令人滿足

               主菜也有好幾款選擇，心儀的有這兩款
              Grilled Chicken with Homemade French Fries in Bearnaise Sauce
              White Cod with Caviar "Pot Au Feu"
              明明喜愛吃雞的，但不知什麼心血來潮，點了魚
              份量認真十足，三大塊的白鱈魚柳，伴以Caviar "Pot Au Feu"(即雜菜牛肉湯配魚籽)
              魚味不算重的鱈魚肉，浸過湯後，帶着一點牛肉香氣，加上其本身嫩滑的質感，整體配搭也算不錯
              三大塊，從未試過西餐吃魚也可以這麼飽肚

               甜點，是朱古力慕絲伴香橙冧酒
              朱古力慕絲帶着濃厚的可可香，配以鮮橙肉，味道來得清新，正好來個對比
              再吃下去，更帶着冧酒的刺激
              整體味道層次豐富，也見到大廚的心思

               通常來到西餐的飲品環節，大都是咖啡或茶
              來到這裡，若你喜歡的話，必定要一試這裡的朱古力(+HK$15)
              朱古力來自同系品牌Leonidas，質感十分順滑
              入口味道香濃，又不致黑朱古的苦澀
              在那寒冷日子，來一杯這樣的熱朱古力，直令我們回想起在英國的日子!

              再次多謝陳兄的美意，是次的水準，實在比青衣的時代好多了!
              今日，我倆再來午膳，有什麼驚喜? 稍後再為大家介紹一下

                Recently there has been an increased awareness in ethical consumption, which advocates spending on products or services in support of certain values or principles. These values and principles usually include fair trade, environmental protection, supporting minorities, etc. and avoiding products which are believed to be associated with unethical behavoiur. Orgainisaios promoting ethical consumption has been mushrooming in Hong Kong and access to 'ethical' products has become easier thanks to the establishment of various social enterprises.

                La Parole is one such example. It is the first restaurant in Hong Kong merging the concept of high class French cuisine and Social Enterprise. La Parole is opened by Confiserie Benji Limited which is a Social Enterprise recognized by the Hong Kong SAR Government. The revenue generated from restaurant after deducting the necessary expenses, are contributed to Benji’s Centre, which provides professional speech therapy to children and teenagers with communication problems, especially those from low-income families. (Information credit: La Parole's official website www.laparole.com.hk)

                I have been longing to visit La Parole after becoming a loyal customer of its sister company, Leonidas the chocolatier. The opportunity came when the restaurant offered a Christmas menu for the holiday season. And so I invited a bunch of friends to try out the special lunch menu on Christmas Day.

                 La Parole is on the 3rd floor in the 'restaurant building' The Pemberton, those who in the know would easily find it. It is simply yet elegantly decorated and seating is quite comfortable.

                 We booked well in advance and got arranged a long table. The place was soon filled after we arrived and half the restaurant was reserved for a private party.

                 There was this welcome snack of tuna (?) on mini toasts. It was served as soon as we sat down and we asked for it to be served when everyone arrived, but it seemed that they forgot about it until we reminded the waiter again.

                 Loster Soup, according to the friend who ordered it, was quite rich and nice.
                My Pan fried Foie Gras with Apple was of course a lovely indulgence; the surface was browned crisply to precision and the melt-in-your-mouth foie gras was simply impossible to resist. Don't forget to eat it with the sweet stewed apples and a dab of flavored salt (the black specks).

                 The lamb, medium rare, tasted a bit bland in the meat but the red wine poached apple (or pear?) on the side was good.

                 Lobster and Salmon in "Aumonière" Style with "Chignin-Bergeron" Sauce was beautifully presented, the phyllo pastry wrapped the salmon like a present. I tried a bit of my friend's salmon; indeed it was a bit tough but with baked salmon this wa all too common an occurrence.

                 Every girl would look forward to dessert time. The restaurant was now pretty busy and even Executive Chef Mr. Eric Taluy was on the floor to help out. And finally Christmas Symphony came and it brought a smile to everyone's face. On the left wad a cake resembling the opera cake, it was moist and chocolaty. The very cute snowman was actually (Chantilly) cream sitting on pastry and it had a raspberry as its hat. The little glass contained chocolate mousse which was again a pleasure.

                 Consistent with the restaurant group's prominent 'chocolate' theme, we each got a bar of Chocolate from Leonidas as a Christmas present. How sweet.

                Holiday menus are sometimes hard to please ironically, for one prices are usually grossly marked up and the food quality may not be up to the restaurant's usual state. Although the food want superb in every dish here, the pricing was very reasonable and you know you're doing good as you eat.

                 ::餐前飲品::

                餐前的飲品是一杯橙紅色的飲料, 雖然不確實飲品的成分, 但不太喝出有酒精成分, 滿是果汁的味道, 貌相亦是吸引的, 杯邊以粉紅色的小碎粒圍邊, 插了一顆紅莓, 但稍嫌有一絲絲似是藥水的味道, 的確, 這類飲品假如調配的時候分量控制不精確的話, 容易適得其反。而且剛喝的時候, 飲品是不冰的, 只屬室溫, 有點扣分, 但約5分鐘後便漸漸冰了,相信是因人數太多的關係, 飲品亦是預先調配的, 在酒吧的一邊看見店員在一個膠瓶中倒出飲品, 雖然不太討好, 但還是可體諒的。

                 ::餐前小吃::

                底層的麵包切得相當薄身, 謹比薯片厚身一點, 烤得完全脆身, 上面放上水果沙律作伴, 分量是一口的, 正好避免吃得尷尬的場面, 味道有點酸酸的, 不失為一款簡單好吃的開胃前菜。

                 *由於菜單上的菜式名字都是英文與法文，以下菜式的名字將會用英文表達。

                :::前菜:::

                Symphony of the Sea: 很美亦很恰當的菜色名字，材料都是從海洋而來的，海鮮包括帶子，龍蝦湯，再配上原隻生蠔。帶子經煎香，近邊的位置刻意煎得焦香，算是很新鮮爽口的， 龍蝦湯的味道相當濃香，味道不造假，聞起來也是香氣四溢的。誠然，生蠔的賣相是很肥美的，但入口有蠔殼， 而且新鮮的程度對比Ambrosia的出品確是有一段差距。

                 Symphony of the Earth: 材料包括了蘑菇湯，鵝肝，煙肉卷，是一道材料都是在地上找到的前菜。蘑菇湯的味道不錯，湯中有一點點蘑菇的碎粒，但湯中好像有蠻多空氣的，少了一點期待中的香滑感。據聞鵝肝是這裏的名物，是我所期待的，鵝肝很厚身，煎得甘香，光是賣相已令人食指大動，的確入口很豐腴，大滿足，小口小口的慢慢完成這件美妙的鵝肝。

                 法式麵包: 麵包共有兩款, 包括法式麵包和法式合桃麥包, 是做得熱烘烘的, 麵包外圍是硬脆的, 內面是鬆軟的麵包, 而且濕潤度十足, 能做到外脆內軟的效果, 是處理得出色的, 法式合桃麥包是稍有一點甜味而滿有麥香的, 合桃的口感也很充實, 不配湯已經很好吃了, 很值得一試。

                 ::主菜:::

                主菜是牛扒，羊架，龍蝦配三文魚三選一。本來選的是龍蝦配三文魚，但後來因聞這裏的牛扒不錯，於是便改成牛扒，友人選的是羊架。

                The Premium American Beef: 牛扒是橢圓形的, 算是厚身大塊的, 外表看似是火候十足的, 但回想起來, 店員在寫單的時候沒有寫到要幾成熟呢…心想應該會是大路的,五六成熟吧, 怎料切開只有約三成熟, 肉還是血紅色的, 外表的那一層是較鞋口的, 應是烹調的時候開了太大的火的關係吧, 結果外表過熟, 但內面不熟, 但有吃到肉質是出色的, 但還是有請店方再煮熟一點。搭的的是米飯, 米飯煮成是軟飯狀的,入口是濕潤而軟腍的。

                 Glazed Lamb Rack: 光是那羊架上的五條骨頭, 已是氣勢十分, 外表亦煎得甘香, 切下去的時候, 偶有肉汁滲出, 但跟吃牛扒遇上同一難題—羊扒過生了, 亦有三成熟, 還是同一處理方法, 請店員再煮一下好了, 煮段羊肉約五成熟, 羊肉沒有太大的羶味, 肉質是很嫩口的。

                 ::甜品::

                Winter Delight: 賣相也算是用心, 但這一道甜是稍為失色的, 做法像是千層酥餅, 一層的朱古力慕絲, 一屠的酥餅,重覆了兩層。酥餅是有薄而有多層酥化的, 朱古力慕絲的甜度較高, 可不是每人也可以駕馭吧,表面的應是香橙類水果, 相當鮮甜。

                 總括而言, 這一次的晚餐是稍有失望的, 相信以餐廳和食物本應可做得更好的, 但可能因餐廳對於處理包場經驗不足, 以至於處理食物還未如一貫應有的水準, 特別是於處理主菜方面, 但前菜, 特別是鵝肝, 也是很值得一試的。

                  女朋友的慶生飯
                  2012-12-09 136 views
                  和女朋友慶祝生日，唔想食啲太普通既日菜韓菜，想特別少少食下有氣氛情調既外國茶，搵左一輸餐廳，發現在上環柏廷坊內有間法國餐廳叫La Parole而且係一間社企，感覺可以同女朋友慶生之餘也可以做到善事，呢頓飯即時變得有意義~準時上到餐廳，內裏顯得有點暗，但呢種才叫情調吧。因為已經踏入12月，所以內裏也有不少聖誕布置，增添氣氛。在餐廳內可以見到有外國藉（法國？）的職員做Servers，感覺專業~點了一個六道菜既Discovery Menu，Server話係是日廚師推介，絕對啱食，而且有兩杯香檳送，最啱慶生。開頭會有麵包及凍湯開開你個胃，麵包當然非一般啦，當中有龍眼乾包，有點硬，但也很美味。六道菜之首：兩隻生蠔，生蠔很好味，很鮮甜，連平時很少食生蠔的我，也覺得不錯，兩隻蠔冇記錯係品種不同的，個人覺得右邊的更好味些。六道菜之二：雜菌松露忌廉湯，呢個湯超好飲，我強烈推介。上菜時Server首先會放低隻碟，內裏有未有放湯的材料，跟手就會拿起一個茶壺為你注滿濃濃的湯，湯混合了材了，很香，而且帶點點Creamy，很好飲。六道菜之三：香煎鵝肝，之前睇OPENRICE食評都知呢道菜超讚，一食果然係不得了，很

                   六道菜之三：香煎鵝肝，之前睇OPENRICE食評都知呢道菜超讚，一食果然係不得了，很香口。但除鵝肝很好食之外，我和女朋友也很欣賞佢個賣相，像花開富貴般，而那綠色的醬配上鵝肝食也很好味，一問之下原來是牛油果，很特別。

                   吃了三道菜之後可能會有少許油膩，此時Server會遞上雪芭給清一清喉嚨，真貼心。

                   六道菜之四：鴨胸，平時食鴨胸可能都只係一片片，佢地呢道係厚切的上，所以要自己切開，味道ＯＫ既。比較特色係佢有啲好似冬蟲夏草型的配菜，食落味道其實係似薯仔，聽講係法國一啲出名既配菜。

                   六道菜之五：龍蝦魚雜燴（唔好意思唔記得左個正名），呢道菜有龍蝦，三文魚等。另外仲有南瓜蓉，配合個特別醬汁係幾惹味。

                   六道菜之六：甜品，賣相幾精美，最特別係馬卡龍裏面的是一夾住雪芭，食落口裏，感覺冰凍新鮮。

                   最後仲有Coffee or Tear 飲埋先走，女朋友大滿足。兩個六道菜Set加埋一大約$13XX元。每人六百零蚊可以食到美食之餘也可以做到善事，我會推介我的朋友黎試試。
                  Other Info. : 餐廳環境相對比較黑，要影到靚相的話就要用閃光燈，但一閃會唔會影響到別人就自己行量。 另外若果是慶生的話，可以係訂枱時講明，除了可以係甜品上寫上Happy Birthday外，Server更會點起煙花蠟燭，雖然大約只有5秒煙火，但有非常特別，生日者一定喜歡。
