第一次吃這間餐廳,朋友說很難BOOK位. 去到餐廳大概只有20個位到,用餐時間大概要3個鐘,如果想試可以BOOK夜D,會較易有位.餐廳呈U字形,較不適合大班朋友,因為很難談天. 同情侶來也不見得很浪漫,因為和鄰座相隔非常近,是一個挨著一個.食物方面,本人覺得一般.不會令人覺得難忘,反而很容易就忘記了剛剛難道菜是什麼味道的.有些菜式會讓人覺得怪怪的.

The setup of Liberty Private Works is simple and direct with an open kitchen and bar seating. Chefs are experienced and each is assigned to a specific work role so there is no crazy running around and food flying across the table. Everything is made and present from scratch right in front of you eyes, with chef explaining the dish upon serving. Ambience is chill and fun at the same time. I really LOVE this place.

I booked Liberty Private Works at least a month in advance for a weekday dinner. The place could only hold up to may be 20 guests all at once? The restaurant is always fully booked, so make sure you make your plans sooner than later. The menu changed every 2 months but they keep some signature dishes unchanged.

I had my dinner in March, so I might have forgotten some details about the dishes, so please bare with me.


Complimentary Bread Biscuits
My sister was crazy about this bread biscuits which was literally just thin crusted biscuits. What makes this biscuits nice is actually the guacamole that comes with it. The gua was slightly seasoned and should taste better if there are more taste to it.

Tuna, Sea Urchin, Espelette, RIce
This signature dish from Liberty Private Works was suggested to start with a frozen grape on the left to freshen up the palate. Fresh, creamy and sweet sea urchin sitting on a bed of caviar and rice crisps, surrounded by thinly sliced refreshing cucumber and relish at sides for garnishment and delicate sauce made with Espelette pepper along with many other ingredients - This dish is a killer. Last, take the frozen sweet lychee on the right to finish off this richly flavoured dish.

Lobster, chorizo, pumpkin, coconut
Another great dish of the night. The lobster was fresh and sweet, and paired well with the smeared pumpkin sauce at the back. I was quite surprised the black sticks were made of coconut! The charred coconut was moreish - extremely crispy in texture and sweet in taste. The side peas, chorizo and some chewy jello thingy brought extra texture and fun to the dish.

Hamachi, fennel, Meyer lemon, shisho
The dish was quite refreshing having shredded Meyer lemon pairing with the poached Hamachi. The Hamchi was fresh and tender, the taste was brought up by the Meyer Lemon which taste more like orange I think. The white broth was a fennel broth, the taste was very light and was overpowered by other ingredients on the plate. The green dots was Shisho Jus and there was also Shisho leaves on the plate as well. Shisho was a Japanese herbs with very distinctive and pungent taste which I love very much.

Egg, truffle, Parmesan, caviar
This was one anticipated dish of the night. Delicate Caviar on top of a perfectly poached egg on a Spinach Parmesan Ravioli with parmesan truffle broth. The creamy runny yolk was nice with the creamy savoury Parmesan. The whole dish was quite cheesy in taste and the truffle broth was quite weak in flavour. The dish was perfected with a crispy warm french baguette to lick off all the sauce available on the plate.

Guinea hen, winter black truffle, oberico ham, pear
The Guinea Hen was very smooth and tender in texture, feel like a texture from sous viding (not sure). The truffle foam on top of the hen was flavourable. A lot of winter black truffle was given generously, it was earthly but quite weak in taste. The veggies on the plate were nicely cook and had a crisp texture.

Lamb, garlic, Treviso, black berries
Another remarkable dish of the night. On the right is a sliced augerbine marinated in savoury Miso sauce, served with sweet berry sauce and a bed of bitter red cabbage. On the left is a succulent lamb with charred aroma. Delish!

The dessert was prepared meticulously and was performed from scratch like a show. I admire the work and learned quite a lot of presentation techniques while watching them. Dessert was good and refreshing.

Fried milk, saffron, Manuka honey, bee pollen
I really love this dessert. On the right was fried milk which had a lightly crispy skin and a hot inner. Paired on the left was a lightly flavoured but creamy honey ice-cream. The tiny dots at the bottom were dried saffron bits and bee pollen. The bee pollen does not really have much taste with them, but quite interesting since I have never had them before.

The petite four was a plate of soft orange Madeleine. The golden yellow Madeleine was freshly baked, served hot with a slightly crispy texture on the outside and very soft inner. I had three of them lol! Yummy!

I had my longest dinner experience ever at Liberty Private Works. By the time I finished my Madeleine, it has already passed Midnight. The dinner was very enjoyable with nice food, good ambience and excellent service and absolutely worth every penny I spent tonight!

<續上> 6. Pigeon, Smoked Eel, Peas, Morels另一道賣相精美的菜色。紅色的鴿肉應該是用了慢煮的技巧,非常腍而不失口感,鴿味特出。下面是 Smoked Eel,有點腥,味道不過不失。上面是綠和白色的露荀,配上 Morels (羊肚菌)的濃香菌味,令味道有更深層次和豐富。左下方的是吉列鵝肝,上面插上一條骨,則有點無菱兩可。 7. Lamb, Garlic, Radicchio, Black Berry這道菜分開左右兩邊,是用了長時間做 presentation 的菜式之一。左邊的羊肉大約七成熟,吃不到羶味,肉質軟腍。雖只有一小片,但也吃到師傅的功架。Black Berry 帶點清甜,加上奶油蒜蓉醬整體十分夾。右邊的底部是紫椰菜蓉,味道很苦;中間是茄子,上面放上很薄的茄子片,盡顯刀工。兩邊的味道其實不很配合,還是喜歡肉多一點。 8. Banana, Blueberry, Mascarpone, Peanut Butter這應該是全晚的高潮。師傅首先用 liquid nitrogen 把 strawberry paste 急速冷凍再打碎,光是看整作過程便值回票

左邊的羊肉大約七成熟,吃不到羶味,肉質軟腍。雖只有一小片,但也吃到師傅的功架。
Black Berry 帶點清甜,加上奶油蒜蓉醬整體十分夾。

8. Banana, Blueberry, Mascarpone, Peanut Butter
這應該是全晚的高潮。
師傅首先用 liquid nitrogen 把 strawberry paste 急速冷凍再打碎,光是看整作過程便值回票價,只是如果用新鮮的 strawberry 會更好。
因為是兩人一同 share 一份,所以盛載甜品的黑盤很長,像是一幅畫。
中間的格仔是 Mascarpone,上面有打碎了的 strawberry,另外有 peanut butter powder 同 blueberry。
左右兩旁的是莓味的雪糕,長型的 caremelized banana 同 mochi。
打碎了的 strawberry和 peanut butter 粉末,很有趣,令這個甜品充滿份子料理的味道。
可是,味道其實是爭妍鬥麗,並不和諧。 Strawberry 很凍和有點酸,雪糕則更酸;Banana 則很甜;mascarpone 和 mochi 味道較淡,吃不出味道。

9. Chocolate, Caramel, Chili, Salt
另一道有趣的甜品,特別之處是在味道上的衝擊。
朱古力粉末上放了雲呢嗱雪糕,口感糼滑,甜度很足。
右下方是 Crumbs 和朱古力味爆炸糖,吃起來在口中彈跳的感覺,既有趣也令人回味。
加上醎味和辣味,令味道很複雜,很有創意。雖然味道並不太夾,但能在同一甜品裡吃出多種味道和口感,也算不錯。

10. Petits Fours
最後的小麵包是新鮮焗製,一點也不馬夫。
雖然到了這裡,已飽得有點吃不下去,但麵包還是好吃得令我吃了數個。
新鮮焗製的麵包,味道真令人難以抗拒。

環境

餐廳位處26/F,落地大玻璃外是大廈景,很有氣派。
坐位是一個圈圍著中間的開放式小廚房,仿佛是在看演唱會一樣,令人更舒適地欣賞師傅表演和合作。
雖然是高枱,坐得有點不舒服,也沒有地方放私人物品,但環境尚算一流。
只是旁邊的客人有點吵,如果可以坐得疏一些,便會更好。

服務

服務真是好得不能再好了。
首先,訂枱時,他們會問每一位客人有甚麼不吃,在製作過程中便不會用到不喜歡吃的食材。
另外,每一道菜上碟前,師傅都會對食材作詳細的描術,值得一讚。
吃每一道菜前,侍應都會替我們換上全新的餐具,避免影響菜式的味道。

一直都想試這一間餐廳,因為食物的賣相太美,美得像藝術品一樣。大約一個月前,終於 Book 到了 7:30pm 的位。但後來可能因為怕做不來的關係,餐廳方面再電問過我們後,改了做 8:30pm。雖然有點晚,但因為實在很想去和難預約的關係,所以也應承。最後晚飯吃了足足 3 小時至 11:30pm。所以要預約的話,最好可以選擇早一點的時間。在中環附近沒有甚麼地方逛,於是 8:00pm 便上去等。侍應也讓我們一邊坐一邊等,半小時後師傅才給我開始上菜。食物訂枱時,他們會問每一位客人有甚麼不吃,在製作過程中便不會用到不喜歡吃的食材。雖然看不到師傅煮食物的過程,但可以看到每一道菜上碟和做 presentation的技巧,賞心悅目。因為用了很多時間去做 presentation,所以碟子全都是熱得灼手,目的是為了保存食物的溫度,很體貼。另外,每一道菜上碟前,師傅都會對食材作詳細的描術,值得一讚。 Appetizer 是一些薄脆,再配上牛油果醬。薄脆做得香脆,醬汁有淡淡的牛油果味加上少許辣味,很醒胃,用來作 Appetizer 不錯。 很有趣的 Napkin。試管裝著的是 Lemongrass & Gi

很有趣的 Napkin。試管裝著的是 Lemongrass & Ginger 的液體,倒上去左邊白色的東西 (起初真的不知道是餐巾),它吸收後會慢慢伸長,變成了 Napkin.

生蠔上放了一些 Crumbs,上面是 Ginger 的泡沬。
生蠔以石春和石板盛著,賣相很討好。
吃一啖,蠔味很濃,連我不喜歡吃生蠔也覺得好吃,沒有了平時的腥味。
Crumbs 的少許脆身和蠔的軟腍成了對比, Ginger 的泡沬出奇地濃,不錯。

2. Tuna, Sea Urchin, Espelette, Rice
精美的賣相,高級的用料,可以看出師傅的心思。
聽師傅說,這道菜是由左至右吃。
首先是浸過蜜糖的提子,酸酸甜甜的,清清味蕾。
跟著是主菜,海膽放上帶點辣的吞拿魚粒刺身;旁邊是魚子醬,再以青瓜圍著;外面是脆米,綠色的是 reduced 的蔬菜汁。
海膽雖然不及日本高級海膽美味,但仍很新鮮甜美;吞拿魚加了一些 espelette,有點辣,搶走了其他食材的味道。
但脆米脆得來而不油膩,和刺身軟腍口感成對比,不錯。
最後,右邊是甜甜的龍眼,中和辣味,為這道菜劃上完滿的句號。

3. Langoustine, Frog, Chantrelles, Wheat Berry
整個 course 棄用傳統的肉類,選用較 exotic 的肉,青蛙肉便是其中之一。
青蛙肉是法國菜常用的肉,師傅把它炸香,吃下去肉味濃馥,甜美非常。
裡面的是 langoustine (小龍蝦粒)和 wheat berries,加上 reduced 菠菜汁。
整道菜未道十分平衡,材料互相呼應,不錯。

4. Hamachi, Fennel, Meyer Lemon, Shiso
這是全晚賣相最美,但亦是最失望的菜式。
先說賣相,簡直就是一幅畫,令人想多看一會才吃。
中間的 Hamachi (油甘魚) 不算新鮮,配上 Meyer Lemon,味道像橙肉般清甜,能帶出魚的一點鮮味。
其他食材雖然不知道是甚麼花菜,但就肯定是好看不好吃,花瓣和下面像洋蔥的菜很苦,但用來固定花瓣的透明啫喱則很酸,味道不平衡,華而不實。

5. Egg, Truffle, Parmesan, Caviar
這道也是令人期待的菜,蛋和松露其實是絕配。可是,師傅竟然用上松露油。
要知道大部份松露油都是人做的,我們給了這麼高的價錢,竟然不用上真正的松露,真的很失望。
雖然如此,味道上各樣食材很調和,展示了師傅精湛的烹調技巧。
把中間的蛋切開,蛋黃便流出來,熟的程度拿捏得剛剛好。
整個菜式像一個 Ravioli,裡面除了蛋黃,還有菠菜蓉。
另外的法包沾上混有蛋黃,松露,奶油的醬汁,味道配合得來十分美味,味道上其實是無可挑剔。

待續..

feb 20, 13..........2人來dinner (@hk$800)...........叫咗 :1) bread bucket (免費)-佢嘅麵包唔喺平時餐廳serve嘅麵包,而喺似薄脆/pizza crust之間嘅混合體-脆身,但唔喺好熱氣嘅脆-唔暖熱,附上avocado base嘅醬-雖然唔熱,但當還未上amuse bouche時,都不失為1個不錯嘅小食2) amuse bouche (免費)-全個廚房呈長方形,喺中間open,被客人圍住,所以我哋可以望住每度菜嘅製作過程-當然有部份已之前整好-呢個amuse bouche嘅嗰片octopus trunk就喺煮好咗d8爪魚,用好利嘅刀薄切-之後嘅garnishing就喺我哋面前慢慢堆砌出嚟-呢道amouse bouche不濃味,比較清怡(唔喺無味,咁多配料同2款sauce drip,點會無味)3) tuna, sea urchin, espelette, rice-喺花形嘅賣相-面有海膽兼名貴金箔,下小小就有魚子醬-海膽無"劫"味,但都唔甜-反而吞拿魚部份就味道唔錯,很嫩,微微有少許辣意-圍邊嘅青瓜片同radish片很薄

5) salmon, oyster, nectarine, fennel yogurt
-呢個底層嘅decoration都用咗佢好多時間...........全人手,又要揀,d菜仔要meet啱造型先要得,而且又精細,每吓都要用鉗仔擺位
-反而2個主角 (slow cook3文魚同poached過嘅蠔)1放就喺
-個透明淺橙色啫喱,就好似食烏冬時會用嘅鰹魚上湯,鮮味
-而細細粒嘅圓球就喺蜜瓜同桃駁李,喺結實爽口(即小生),並唔喺腍熟嗰種,水果味道清新
-除此之外仲有d鮮艷嘅食用花瓣,不過我張相嘅角度攞得唔好
-講番2個主角,個3文魚slow cook,所以超嫩,難得喺中間喺好似溏心咁,完全無質感可言,喺第1次食到呢個效果嘅3文魚
-而個蠔喺1/2隻嚟,poach過,入口唔喺蠔嘅質感,好似食緊腍身又帶少爽嘅大菜糕咁,好得意
-2個主角帶比我奇幻嘅質感之旅

-開始甜品時間了.............dessert chef每碟都有唔同圖案,個個唔同
-製作時間都長,因為要做個士多啤梨磒石碎出嚟,好chemical的,+上liquid nitrogen,就變出1大"舊"粉紅磒石出嚟,之後再用硬物鎬碎佢
-最後先放磒石碎,即時冒出迷幻嘅白煙,很詩意,玩味10足
-有frozen嘅士多啤梨,去皮tomato,裡面仲釀咗d jam,rosemary雪糕,煉奶味filling mochi,朱古力粒碎,麥片碎等
-2人1碟,初時我諗多咗,以為1人1碟添
-成個甜品喺你面前整,好似1個表演咁..........亦令我覺得有krug on the moon嘅影子

一坐下先送上今晚的餐牌,八道菜加餐前小吃和petit four,飲品和咖啡/茶另計。佢地也提供wine pairing。菜式沒有名字,只有每道菜的主要食材。據他們說,每兩個星期會換一道菜式,但係兩個signature dishes係永遠不變。

Amuse Bouche,意指令人味蕾興奮嘅開胃菜。今晚嘅開胃菜係一片釀有八爪魚吸盤的薄切啫喱。

第一道菜係signature dish1,吞拿魚。吞拿魚放響正中央用蘿蔔薄片圍著,像花芯一樣。上面放了海膽和金箔,花朵周圍是脆卜卜的米通粒,食落口感十足。最特別之處,係碟左右放了兩粒frozen fruit,左面是提子,右面是龍眼。供吃前吃後清味蕾之用。

第二道菜係龍蝦,蟹肉配以tapioca 和黑色tempura (我實在吃不出是甚麼)。雖然佢地每樣菜色也會講解一次,但係講英文又講得鬼咁快,加上排住影相,有好多配料食材食左都唔清楚係乜黎。

接著係我覺得全晚最好睇唔好食的三文魚配以新鮮花瓣。切切實實是幅畫又似一個春天花園。可惜三文魚普通了點,反而值得一提是那個像蟲蟲的中式artichoke。

下一道係Signature Dish 2。餃子,流心蛋,truffle,似湯非湯。餃子包著流心蛋,食嘅時候把皮擋開,讓蛋汁四溢,混著旁邊的芝士一起吃,每啖都帶著濃濃黑松露香味。佢地仲奉上一個新鮮焗起嘅麵包,俾你點著汁一起吃。味道確是一流,唯美中不足是餃子皮有一點點硬,汁醬也有D D「漏」,容易給人飽肚的感覺。

跟住係今晚嘅兩道主菜,分別係雞同鹿肉,老實說相對地比其他菜式略嫌失色了,尤其味道無甚特別。以前在瑞士吃過小鹿Bambi肉,比這塊紅噹噹像是Sashimi的鹿肉塊好吃多了。幸好沒有血,就成塊當魚生放入口了。

好,甜品時候到了。估唔到這裏的甜品還是蠻有水準。甜品是兩個人share一個長長的碟,以士多埤梨為主題,卻新鮮地加了一個蕃茄和mochi,加添幾分創意。主廚然後為每個客人添加冒煙的急凍士多冰塊,裏面還夾雜著士多埤梨肉。驟眼看有些像文華Krug on the Moon的mini版。不過味道可說不相伯仲,俾三個讚!

第二道甜品是炒鮮奶+雪糕。平凡了點,但味道不錯。

最後的petit four是現場即焗的法式小蛋糕。我從來未見過餐廳咁有心有要求去對待食物,連小如last one的petit four也要即場焗製,務求讓食客吃到最新鮮最美味的。這種一絲不苟的態度確實讓人感動,猶其在香港這個利字當頭,樣樣講求効率和成本効益的地方。我好像在這裏看到日本人一樣的認真,法國人對美食嘅執著,還有享受人生的追求!

綜合而言,兩個signature dishes和甜品是整晚menu的亮點,絶對是水準之作。一千元樓下,能買這樣的享受,去欣賞真真正正對美食嘅熱誠,確實是超值!

For starters I LOVE this place. I LOVE IT. It's set in an open kitchen with glass windows peering out to the Hong Kong skyline. (okay it may not be the usual harbour view, but it was still charming in its own way)
I have so much praise for this place, I dont even know where to begin!

Initially, I did see LPW as one of those du jour establishments that eventually fade out or take a slip on quality or service but I'm pleased to say I was wrong.

We were sat at the edge of the bar table which was extremely close to the stoves, and it was very hot, I'm talking serious heat waves here. So I kindly asked one of the waiters who served us for the night if he could possibly grant us a change of seats. Unfortunately, the tables were all packed, so there wasn't anywhere we could really move to- which was understandable. What impressed me the most was halfway through the night the very same waiter came back to me promising that he hadn't forgotten my earlier request and that there was a group of people leaving soon and that he'd move us to their side of the bar table asap. This scored envious glares from diners sitting next to us who were undoubtedly plagued by the heat wave as well.

Another tiny thing I was a bit more appreciative of was that most of the staff here really had heart, they (the staff that stood within the open kitchen) took the time to really explain what every dish was and I actually understood! Its very common in Hong Kong even with the extortionate priced restaurants you get waiters who just mumble out a bunch of obviously pre-learned menus (a) I never hear them properly (b) they never look at me politely, it's like they all wanna get it over and done with (c) I barely understand them...
So it's always a bonus to have staff that speak good english or at least properly make an effort to introduce every dish.

On to the food:

I'm not gonna lie, I can't recall every single detail of the dish and at LPW none of their dishes are simple!
On the right of the dish was an alcohol drenched long-an or something along those lines (sloppy I know! maybe I'll take notes next time lol.)
Tuna, Sea Urchin, Espelette and crispy rice

I loved the fish! I'm not usually a fan of fried food but I relished every bite. The fish was well seasoned with its juices and tenderness retained perfectly. I remember I had something similar at BCN and I was not as impressed...

As one of the signature dishes of LPW, one will be graced by the awesomeness of this giant ravioli! It was in a pool of rich parmesan sauce and as soon as I broke into the ravioli, the egg yolk came oozing out with the tantalising aroma of truffle.

The veal was rather bland, merit to its quality, but the sauce balanced it out rather well. On the left was deep fried sweetbreads if memory serves me well ( the mentioning of 'sweetbreads' brought me straight to Hannibal Lector in the opening scene of the Red Dragon, if you haven't seen it check it out!) I must admit it didn't really taste of anything to me? Didn't know what Hannibal Lecter was raving on about.

Desserts! My favourite part of the meal! I was a happy bunny as we got served two desserts! Something all restaurants should do more often.it was a joy watching the chef prepare our desserts. On the far left those crumbles were pina colada tasting crumbs, the chef skillfully made use of liquid nitrogen and from whatever he yielded from his little potion trick, broke them into crumbs. Viola!
The thin round disc was actually a deep fried slice of pineapple.
My deepest apologies, I cannot recall what the rest was, but I can say, everything on the dish collectively seemed to produce a huge pina colada

I must say dining at LPW was an extremely enjoyable culinary experience. I appreciated the detailed service, the lovely food and most importantly, the heart and sincerity the chef and his team put into serving all diners. We were among the last diners of the night and I managed to catch a glimpse of the chef and his team high fiving and cheering and hugging each other at the end of the night. My thoughts flashed back to earlier on when they were preparing our food, they did work extremely well as a team, audible 'Yes Chefs' were heard and even in the face of goldfish eyed diners like myself gaping at the chef as he prepared everything, not for a split second did he get distracted. I was impressed. (compared to restaurants where I caught a peek of the chef's team who lacked energy and spirit.. bumming around the kitchen floor- tsk tsk). It should be noted that to prepare food for a party of around 30 people all night with them watching your every move, is not easy task to accomplish.
So I have the highest regards for LPW.

On top of all of that, the price was ever so reasonable, it was around $9xx per person, for that amount of food and quality, I was more than happy to pay the bill. I think a lot of times I dine at restaurant with average food and outrageous price tags attached which weighs on the dining experience. There's nothing that pleases me more to find a place, serving good food, at a good price. I highly recommend this place. And as you've noticed, I don't generously dish compliments out to everybody. It honestly deserves much more credit than it has received!

呢間餐廳出名菜靚味道好,所以想同老公去食飯慶祝我地20週年 ,但係佢只接受30日內o既online booking. 我上個月尾上網Book, 以為weekday (29/11)容易d book到,但是已經係on waiting list. 之後我book定花盃諗住食日本菜,但係當日三點幾餐廳打比我,話有人cancel booking, 問我有無興趣,我地即刻話OK。因為我同事講成餐飯要食3個鐘,所以我地book左7:30 (另一round 時間係8:30)。 結果係食左3個半鐘。 不過可能我鐘意煮野食,一路食一路睇住d廚師擺盤,又唔覺食左咁耐嚕。 但係可能老公無乜興趣,加上o個度d凳好淺,老公話坐到腰骨有d痛。 真係辛苦佢。總結呢餐,視覺享受比味覺優勝,因為佢個個菜式都靚得有如藝術品,雖然當中只有兔肉同魚味道麻麻,其他都唔錯,但係又唔係話真係好好味(只有甜品最精彩)。 我諗去一次就夠了。

魚 (上面魚鱗係黑松露同誓芹頭),– 全餐最唔Like,只得個靚字,魚無鮮味, 唔知係咪比d超濃味醬汁蓋晒定係太細,太薄所以食唔到味 (得唔夠兩吋長,超超超薄)。

Having heard many positive things about Liberty Private Works from friends, I finally went online to see if I could reserve a seating in the oncoming weeks (this was in October). There are two seating times, 7.30pm and 8.30pm and you can only reserve a table 30 days in advance. For those that do not want to wait that long, I would suggest you reserve a seating during the weekdays rather than weekends as it seems there is more availability then. They serve a 10-course degustation set by the chef

For those that do not want to wait that long, I would suggest you reserve a seating during the weekdays rather than weekends as it seems there is more availability then. They serve a 10-course degustation set by the chef with an optional wine pairing. If you have any food allergies, you are able to specify on the online booking form and they are more than willing to substitute ingredients.

Even though I picked a Wednesday (three weeks in advance), I was still put on waiting list for a seating for two, but they confirmed the reservation two days before so I guess lucky C and me~

LPW is located on Stanley st and sits on the 26th floor of the Stanley 11 building. In order to reach the 26th floor, you will need to go up via the disabled elevator around the corner from the concierge as not all the elevators go up to that level. We were greeted at the door by the waitress and then led us to our assigned seats. The dining area is not large, but coupled with a high ceiling and floor to ceiling length windows that account for two adjacent sides of the room, it gave the illusion of spaciousness. Quite nice actually. The open kitchen is based in the center of the room and guests are seated on red cushy bar stools aligned against the rectangular layout of this area.

While waiting for the degustation to start (guests are served the same dish at the same time according to their time of seating), we were able to watch the chefs at work, carefully plating our dishes as well as enjoying the pita crisps with guacamole as pre-meal nibbles.

The amuse bouche looked so artsy, chicken liver parfait thinly spread using a stencil into nine miniature squares. Accompanying the parfait, clockwise from top left, fried brioche with fresh fig, hibiscus flower, almond jelly napoleon and a square of chicken skin. This was quite fun to eat, we were able to try out different combinations with the parfait to find our favourite pairing. The sweetness from the hibiscus flower and almond jelly worked really well with the rich flavour of the chicken liver, while the crunchy texture of the brioche and crispy chicken skin gave a nice texture contrast to the smoothness of the parfait.

The next dish was one of their signature dishes. Very striking in appearance, with the vivid lime green brushstroke clashing with the bright orange sea urchin. Essentially this was a tuna tartare, topped with fresh tongues of sea urchin and caviar with a scatter of puffed rice surrounding it. To the side of the plate, on the left was a frozen grape and on the right was a frozen longan. We were instructed to first eat the grape as a refresher before starting on the tartare and the longan was for afterwards. The tartare was really good, both the tuna and sea urchin were very fresh and the puffed rice added a crunchiness to the mushy texture of the tartare. The longan helped cleanse the palate from the slight fishiness of the tuna which was actually quite thoughtful.

Scallops were next. One solitary scallop sliced in half accompanied with Jerusalem artichoke puree, black garlic and a crispy pork rind. The scallop was seared perfectly with the inside still slightly raw and the artichoke puree was very creamy. I only had a small bite of the pork rind as it tasted too much of bacon which I am not too fond of, but this was just my problem as other guests left their plate clean. C is allergic to shellfish, so she had fish to replace hers. She seemed to enjoy it.

The market fish served that evening was turbot with autumn black truffle and white celery root cut into perfect spheres and laid as an intricate pattern of scales. The fish was fresh, with a slight perfume from the truffles, but compared to the other dishes this was nothing out of the ordinary.

When the next dish was being prepared, I honestly was not looking forward to it as excuse my shallowness, the wrinkled up package in the center of the plate looked very unattractive. As the server described to us that this was their second signature dish, I was a little shocked, but definitely more intrigued. And oh how wrong I was to judge! This was very very good~ The wrinkled package was actually a creamy spinach and ricotta ravioli which when you cut into it, revealed a gorgeously runny egg yolk. The yolk was supposed to mix together with the truffle and parmesean espuma foam bathing the ravioli and a freshly baked baguette was served to mop up the liquid. Both C and I enjoyed this a lot

The first meat dish served was rabbit prepared in two ways. A rabbit ragout with pasta, topped with rabbit roulade wrapped in crispy pancetta accompanied with a single chestnut, brussel sprouts and a smear of carrot puree. The braised ragout was flavourful and despite the roulade being wrapped in bacon, I still enjoyed the tender rabbit meat inside. The carrot puree was sweet and I was pretty sure that the brussel sprouts was there to cleanse the palate from the richness of the bacon.

A trio of beef signaled our final savoury course of the evening. A side of sirloin cooked to a beautiful rosy pink with ox tongue presented in two ways. One as a slow-braised finger seductively caramelised and also as a cold cut. This was accompanied by fresh porcini mushrooms, fois gras and braised onions. The sirloin although it looked very tender, was slightly chewy, but had a beautiful natural flavour while the braised ox tongue just melted deliciously in the mouth. C had a portion of pork sirloin replacing the beef, and from the bite I had it was perfectly cooked. The meat was soft and despite there being no accompanying sauce (since it was made with beef) it was perfectly juicy and flavouful with just a touch of saltiness.

While we were still finishing our main course, we could see the chef preparing dessert, drawing lines and dots with a squeezy tube on a black surface. Upon looking closely, the black surface was actually individual plates set together, so that once the chef finished his 'artwork' each guest received something a little different. Quite summery looking, this dessert displayed the main element of pineapple. They used pina colada cream in two ways frozen solid with nitrogen and blobbed as a fizzy cream. Honestly I am not partial to the flavour of pina colada, but it was interesting to taste the very cold, solid cream created from the nitrogen while I felt the fizzy cream tasted a bit like off milk? I preferred the other components of the dessert more, the olive oil sorbet was smooth and delicate in flavour while the condensed milk mochi was really good, cutely plump with a pleasant chewy texture.

The final dessert was much more to my liking~ A deconstructed PB&J sandwich which consisted of a dome of rich chocolate and peanut butter ganache accompanied by a quenelle of vanilla and jelly ice-cream with a piece of airy sponge cake. Scattered underneath were candid peanuts and crisp chocolate balls for a little textural contrast. We were instructed to combine all the elements in one spoonful for the full experience, and I must say I really enjoyed this. The dome of ganache tasted like a more elegant version of a Reese peanut butter cup and the ice-cream was perfect in relieving the palate from the overall richness. So so good~

The meal was very enjoyable and service was attentive, but a little haphazard at times . Each dish was supposed to be announced by either the chef or the server, however a couple of times we had to remind them to give us the descriptions, but this was very minor. When our coffees were served, C's cup had a very unpleasant sour smell and when we relayed this to the server, he immediately replaced it with a very positive attitude. Appreciated. This is definitely somewhere I plan on returning to~

Intimate yet glamorous and sleek, Liberty Private Works is a private kitchen which first opened in June 2009 on Wellington Street and then relocated to its current location on Stanley Street in September 2011.

High ceilings and bar tables make for a contemporary setting, and the use of red in its colour scheme reminded me of the interior of L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon. Watching award-winning chef, Vicky Cheng, and his team bustling about and preparing our dishes right in front of us in the open kitchen kept all of us captivated the entire meal.

Vicky Cheng is the Executive Chef of Liberty Private Works and Liberty Exchange Kitchen & Bar in Exchange Square, and has in the past worked in the Michelin three-starred Daniel in New York, alongside Daniel Boulud. A 10-course degustation menu is available each night for $800 per person, and one item on the menu is changed every week, except for the two signature dishes (courses (2) and (5) below) that always stay on the menu. Vicky was friendly and professional, and graciously introduced each course to us, and the rest of his team was equally convivial and assured.

Booking is allowed one month in advance. Since this private kitchen only seats around 20 persons, you should book exactly one month before the day you want to come to avoid disappointments!

(1) We started off with this artistic amuse-bouche, comprising of fresh tomato, mozzarella cheese powder, jelly made from tomato consommé, olive oil caviar and yellow tomato coolie. The presentation was breathtaking, and the dish provided a variety of textures and complex flavours. I absolutely adored how an insalata caprese (i.e. tomato, mozzarella and olive oil) has been turned into a platter so stunning and exciting. What I loved the most was the olive oil caviar which had a lingering olive taste, and really lit up the whole platter.

(2) ♥♥♥ The amuse-bouche was followed by this Tuna, Sea Urchin, Espelette, Rice, which was one of Liberty Private Works’ two signature dishes. There are two pieces of frozen fruits on the side of the plate. We were told to start with eating the frozen grape on left, in order to lower the temperature of our palette for eating the sea urchin. Freezing fruits in this way was such an ingenious idea! It felt like eating sorbet, except the grape was even sweeter and more delicious. The sea urchin was exquisite, and its touch of spiciness added some excitement to this luxurious dish. Moreover, the combination of creamy sea urchin and crispy rice was sublime! Lastly, we ate the frozen longan on the left as a palate cleanser before our next course.

(3) Our third course was the Scallop, Iberico Ham, Dashi, Egg White. On the left was a piece of Iberico Ham Jelly which beautifully melted in my mouth. The Pan-Fried Seared Scallops were perfectly fried and juicy, and tasted incredible with the accompanying herbs on the plate. The Scallop Tartare with Lemon Purée had a remarkably refreshing lemon taste, and was velvety and tender. Lastly, the oriental-inspired Daikon with Steamed Egg White and Dried Scallops had a soothingly mild taste, and the dried scallops were gorgeously crunchy. My only complaint, however, was that the Iberico Ham Jelly verged on salty, while the Daikon had a rather feeble taste.

(4) Next on the menu was the Market Fish, Chanterelle, Peas, Vanilla. The fish had a nicely firm texture, and the indulgent, buttery pea purée was also commendable.

(5) ♥♥♥ This Egg, Truffle, Parmesan, Caviar is their other signature dish. A strong and alluring aroma of truffle filled the restaurant as this course was prepared. This Raviolo was served with Parmasan foam at the bottom, had a spinach and ricotta cheese filling, and also had an egg yolk wrapped in it. It was topped with some caviar and was served with a small piece of baguette. Vicky recommended that we break the egg yolk when eating it. I cannot praise this dish enough - it was incredibly thoughtful and indulgent, with marvellously rich flavours coming from the Parmesan cheese, ricotta and egg yolk, which were balanced by the lightness of the thin raviolo wrapper. The caviar added a contrasting texture to the soft raviolo, and it was such a delight for all of us to dip the baguette in the remaining Parmasan foam.

(6) I loved how the plate was still very hot when this Duck, Pancetta, Morel, Edamame was brought to us.The Seared Duck Breast had a remarkable texture, but taste-wise it was not outstanding. The soft, delicate Seared White Asparagus, the creamy edamame purée and the Crispy Spring Roll with Foie Gras and Duck Confit were all enjoyable. The jus made from duck bone reduction and fig, which was a touch sweet, and the white asparagus foam made for some delicious seasoning for this dish.

(7) This beautiful Pork, Cauliflower, Rhubarb, Macadamia Nut was a dual pork dish, comprised of a piece of delectable Seared Pork Loin with a subtle peppery taste, and a piece of Roast Pork which had a excellently crispy skin. However, the one thing missing about this dish was that the Roast Pork’s texture was not tender enough. It had actually been slow cooked for 36 hours, so I would have expected a softer and more velvety texture. That aside, the sweet sauce made with macadamia nut and pork jus was fantastic.

(8) I had been looking forward to the desserts the entire meal, and this Pineapple, Coconut, Olive Oil, Black Pepper did not disappoint. The awesome presentation, which resembled a cheese platter, immediately whetted my appetite. There was a scoop of olive oil ice cream, which had an amazing “oily” yet refreshing taste (and by “oily” I mean “tastes like oil”, not greasy!) There were a few absolutely delicate and scrumptious Condensed Milk Mochis, and some Pina Colada Foam which was supposed to be eaten with the edible flowers. There was also some Coconut Mousse wrapped with thinly sliced Roasted Pineapple, which was sweet, creamy and fabulous.

(9) One dessert was definitely not enough, so fortunately there was also a Hazelnut, Chili, Earl Grey, White Chocolate on the menu. The Earl Grey Ice Cream with dark chocolate powder had a stunningly creamy texture, and the sophisticated taste of Earl Grey really awakened me at night. The Japanese rice pearls were crunchy little balls which were not sweet and therefore balanced out the sweetness of Hazelnut Mousse. The use of the Japanese rice pearls bore a resemblance to the Crispy Rice used to accompany the Sea Urchin in the second course of the meal. Lastly, I should mention that there were actually a few Chilli Seeds on the side of the plate for spicing up our palate for this dessert, but I was not feeling adventurous enough to try them.

(10) ♥♥♥ Lastly, Vicky freshly baked some homemade Madeleines right before us; he said that the madeleines were like a soufflé in the sense that they had to be eaten between the 1st and 4th minute after they were out from the oven. Needless to say, I was absolutely stuffed with food and wine after the previous 9 courses, but when these lovely, heavenly Madeleines appeared before my eyes, I just couldn’t stop eating! They were so unbelievably light and fluffy that I instantly fell in love with them. Did Vicky deliberately save the best thing till the end?

While every course on the degustation menu was accomplished, what I have absolutely fallen in love with were the (2) Sea Urchin and Tuna Tartare, (5) Egg Yolk Raviolo and (10) Homemade Madeleines. The passion, dedication and innovation of Vicky and his team shone through the cuisine, and this is definitely a private kitchen that I can see myself coming back to.

I am not a big fan of the private kitchens in Hong Kong and do not frequent them often. For me, they tend to be relatively overpriced disappointments. However, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Liberty Private Works is an exception.

I would like to begin by saying that I had not done any research about LPW prior to going and knew nothing about the chef/owner and their past exploits. Although the evening began slowly, it turned out to be a very enjoyable one, thanks to the solid culinary skills and casual dining atmosphere.

The evening started slowly because LPW is in Central, yet not in a major building or hotel. This can make it tricky to find for those who do not work in the district. Then, when you find the building, you might be shown into the cargo elevator, as I was, for a relatively long ride to the 26th floor. Once I got there, I found a very well put together, modern, bar dining room with decent views of the Mid-levels.

We were served a Tasting Menu (I think that is the only choice one gets) which included an amuse bouche, six cooked dishes and two desserts.

Amuse Bouche: Looked fantastic, did not taste good. Amongst the few blemishes of the evening was the amuse bouche, which looked great and was well worth the photo, but did not taste very good. If LPW has the aspirations to reach the higher echelons of the fine-dining world, my recommendation would be to elevate this dish, especially given where all the other ones are. I recall I had the good fortunate of having dinner at Le Bernardin in New York, one of my all-time favourite fine-dining spots, where we began the Chef's Tasting with a lovely salmon amuse bouche. The only plus for starting with a weak amuse bouche as LPW did when I was there, is it set my expectations for the food lower for the rest of the evening. That said, please read on and do not let this affect what I have to say about some of the cooked dishes below.

Sea urchin and tuna tartare, topped with caviar and cucumber thins on top of rice crispies: This dish was good, not great, but good. Although this dish tasted good, it was not impressive, given it is not hugely difficult to combine uni, caviar and tuna to make a delicious dish. This combination is not new for those who have been fine-dining for the past ten years. In fact, we even joked about this amongst my dinner party. However, the addition of the crunchy rice crispies underneath was a good touch.

Shellfish composition served on thin jelly: OK, this was the first moment in the evening where the food raised one of my eyebrows. It was a combination of shrimp, cuttlefish and clams on top of a thin slice of jelly. The flavours came together nicely. Not enough to be warrant a "wow", but this was very well done, given all the ingredients were cooked "just right", which is very well done because it is very easy to overcook these items.

Crispy amadai (fish) with peas and mushrooms: Definitely a dish one could expect to eat at any top fine-dining restaurant when eating fish. Great texture and complimentary flavours. If every dish on the Tasting Menu were executed to this level, LPW would be a two or three Michelin star restaurant.

Egg ravioli with caviar: The egg ravioli followed the fish, which was a great idea in this case as the excellent amadai was followed by a rich ravioli which was delicious. For me, this was when my dinner experience at LPW peaked in the evening. As such, although I had two more dishes after this, I probably drank a few more glasses of wine at this point, as such, would like to provide my review of the last two cooked dishes after my next visit!

The two desserts were good, with the first one being more spectacular in preparation, presentation and flavour. It was some combination of coconut and pineapple flavoured creams and bits of different textures.

For those familiar with the fine-dining ratings in New York or for the New Yorkers, if LPW was in New York, I think it would probably achieve one Michelin star and a solid 24-25 on Zagat's for food. I have decided to include these estimates as LPW deserves to be compared to restaurants in New York.

Overall, this is an experience I would recommend to anyone who enjoys modern fine-dining. From a culinary experience standpoint, LPW for me probably ranks just below the bar at Robuchon at this point. Nonetheless, more than worthwhile if you have three hours for dinner one evening, would like to impress a date and can afford to dish a thousand dollars per head.

Thank you Liberty Private Works, I had a great time!

餐廳只供應一款八道菜的套餐,食客毋須費神點菜,相反大可專心培養好心情去慢慢欣賞廚師一款款精心安排的驚喜菜式。

Amuse Bouche (Grade: 4/5)
一般餐廳的餐前小食都只會是一些簡單的小點,但這裡的amuse bouche 卻是一幅賞心悅目的圖畫,而當晚圖畫的題材正是「西瓜與哈蜜瓜」。

圖畫中包括幾顆紅色的西瓜粒和黃色的哈蜜瓜粒,別緻得來入口非常甜美。廚師特別加入藍蟹肉和水牛芝士等珍貴的食材,再配搭兩種不同口味的醬汁 - 泰國羅勒香草醬和乳酪醬。兩款醬料口感清新之餘,亦同時帶種醒胃的效果,特地為我們的味蕾作好準備。

吞拿魚、海膽、辣椒、米 (Grade: 5/5)
接著是晚餐的第一道前菜正式出場。既然身為餐廳的拿手菜式之一,菜式的設計當然要花足心思。

廚師建議菜式要由碟的左面開始而往右完成,我們首先從放在碟左面的冰鎮巨蜂提子開始。冰凍的提子入口清涼無比,更重要的是清甜而略帶微酸的汁液能令味蕾重新啟動,我們的味蕾在急降的溫度下亦會更適應低温的吞拿魚他他。

這款招牌菜果然名不虛傳,底層的吞拿魚他他,加入適量的辣椒豉油後,入口特別幼滑。吞拿魚他他的面層放上新鮮的海膽和魚子醬,鮮味鮮得完全非筆墨所能形容。旁邊再放入米通碎來增加嚼勁,也成功地令口感更為精彩。

品嚐這道菜的最後一個步驟是當完成之前,吃了放在碟右邊的龍眼肉。龍眼肉有助清新味蕾,功效跟吃雪芭可謂異曲同工,但就勝在材料和成份天然。

帶子、西班牙火腿、蛋白 (Grade: 3.5/5)
上一道菜的餘韻還未盡,侍應已急不及待地送上第二道前菜,而今回輪到海鮮的菜式。

總廚Vicky 很喜愛用同一種食材但兩款截然不同的烹調方法來演繹,讓食客可以感受到兩者在製法、賣相和味道方面的對比,這次的主角是帶子。

第一款食法是用少許蜜糖來將帶子香煎。帶子被煎至兩面金黄色,賣相不俗,但火候稍嫌太猛而令帶子差不多全熟,略為影響了入口的質感。

另一款食法是相對比較清新的帶子他他。帶子經處理後用蔬菜包裹成壽司一般,口感新鮮,與之前蜜糖香煎的那款對比鮮明,但效果卻以帶子他他來得較吸引。配菜伴以西班牙火腿啫喱和瑤柱蛋白籮蔔,西班牙火腿啫喱無論造型和味道都有點似上海菜的蜜汁火方,跟瑤柱蛋白籮蔔同樣帶有中菜的影子,只可惜味道與兩款帶子不太吻合。

時魚、牛肝菌、青豆、雲呢拿 (Grade: 4.5/5)
魚類向來都不是我的強項,尤其是歐陸菜帶見的John Dory、turbot、monkfish 等就更為少吃,因此亦未有追問當晚時魚的由來。

印象當中魚肉的質感有點像澳洲的盲鰽,魚皮煎得香脆得不得了,入口甚為香口。更喜歡的是底層幼滑的青豆蓉和面頭的青豆泡沫,兩者令菜式的味道份外豐富,實在令我開始對魚類菜式重新改觀。

蛋黄、黑松露、巴馬臣芝士、魚子醬 (Grade: 5/5)
最後一道前菜隨即壓軸出場。同樣是餐廳出名的招牌菜,廚師特別將矜貴的黑松露和菠菜蓉釀入意式雲吞之內,黑松露獨特濃郁的幽香,頓時令雲吞變成極品,加上温泉蛋黃的鹹香和魚子醬的鮮味,混和一起吃實在最好不過。特別值得一讚的是那個稀杰和濃度適中的巴馬臣芝士醬汁,配合蛋黃汁後令意式雲吞的口感變得格外煙靱,味道無懈可擊。

鴨、意大利煙肉、羊肚菌、毛豆 (Grade: 3.5/5)
眨眼之間一半的菜式經已落入胃納,接著下來的是主菜的環節,無獨有偶兩道主菜都不約而同地選用了兩種烹調技巧來處理同一款食材,從而帶出不同的口味。

這道「一鴨兩食」的菜式包括有傳統製作的燒鴨胸肉和用油封鴨肉做餡的春巻,當中個人較欣賞燒鴨胸肉的酥脆,入口有種即溶化的感覺。配料的陣容同樣豐富,白露筍、毛豆蓉、意大利風亁煙肉粒、羊肚菌和無花果等等令菜式的顏色更為繽紛亮麗,再配襯少許的白露筍泡沫後完成。

材料固之然豐富,但同樣也令菜式整體的味道變得相對複雜,喜歡吃濃味的朋友必定受落。

豬、椰菜花、紅洋芹菜、夏威夷果仁 (Grade: 4/5)
以豬為題的主菜同樣有兩款食法,烤豬腩肉口感一點也不遜色於我們中式的豬腩仔,皮脆肉香,實在非常滋味。燒豬柳也絕不欺場,肉質幼嫩,加上少許夏威夷果仁,效果頗為特別。

之前炮製鴨肉時,廚師選擇採用露筍做個泡沫醬汁來提升鴨肉的鮮味,今次調校豬肉的醬料亦同樣挑選一種蔬菜。原來醬汁特別利用了有少許酸溜溜的紅洋芹菜,令豬肉入口更滋味無窮。配搭椰菜花蓉、風乾蕃茄和菠菜球等的蔬菜,也正好中和一下菜式的油膩。

菠蘿、椰子、橄欖油、黑胡椒 (Grade: 5/5)
對頭盤和主菜還有點意猶未盡,但甜品項目始終要正式開始,率先奉上以菠蘿和椰子為題材的第一款甜品

甜品的賣相有如銀河系八大行星圖,效果非常悅目。經侍應細心介紹下,原來一糰糰白色的泡沫其實是pina colada梳打,配以新鮮的菠蘿方塊、橄欖油味雪糕、日式糯米糰、鮮椰子肉等等一同足料炮製而成,入口清新甜美。個人最愛那片用新鮮菠蘿薄片包住的椰子慕絲,入口的海綿質感尤勝於棉花糖,層次亦極為豐富。
二十份甜品一併製作,創作力絕對不比繪畫小。

榛子、辣椒、伯爵茶、白朱古力 (Grade: 3.5/5)
可能是整晚最平凡的一道菜,這款甜品以伯爵茶味的蛋糕為主角,配以較清淡的白朱古力雪糕。廚師特別在蛋糕內放了些少榛子碎來增強咬口,加上少許的辣椒片來刺激一下味蕾。總算是一點新噱頭,但效果就不算得太過理想。

總結
三小時的感官旅程中,總廚Vicky和他的美食團隊帶領着我們走過一個又一個的奇妙歷程,感覺目不暇給。每道菜式都稱得上是精心打造,絕無冷場,而且創意無限。除菜式的造型別出心裁之外,味道同樣令人回味無窮,相比很多星級酒店餐廳的出品相信還要精彩。

The degustation menu consisted on 8 courses along with the amuse bouche. The amuse bouche was made with tomatoes, cheese and some jello. We had to spray a little salt on the food to bring up the taste and eat according to the sequence in the picture, from the near end to the far end. It was pretty interesting thought the presenter was a bit not vocal enough and I did not catch everything which he had said.

Looking at the chef preparing for food was a good enjoyment. You got to see how ingredients were being beautifully prepared and how the chef's magic worked on it to become a very pretty dish.

Our first course was Tuna, Espelette, Rice. We also had to follow a sequence for this disk as well. We started with the frozen grape on the left first. It tasted like a icy sorbet! Moving to the middle, the top was my favourite! Yummy and fresh sea urchin, and tuna tartar below mixed well with it. I also loved the surrounding crispy rice that the sea urchin and tuna served as a good 'jam' / 'paste' for it. To finish up for the dish, we ate the chestnut thingy, and getting more excited for the next course.

Here came the second course - Scallop, Crab, Apple, Ginger. This was more a blend with shelled seafood and fruits. We did not have to follow any sequence for this but I started with the jello. It was like a soup being put in the fridge until it became the form of a jello. I especially like the far end - crab bisque mousse, it offered a new sense of how crab bisque could be served in different texture. Well, actually I found there were too many things on one plate which I could not remember everything in one go as the presenter was not loud enough.

We then moved towards more hot dishes - Market Fish, Curried Mussel, Fennel, Citrus. Fish meat was tender with strong flavored and curried mussel. Loved the citrus on top to neutralize the tinsy winsy bit of spiciness.

After that, this was one of the signature dishes at LPW - Egg, Truffle, Parmesan, Caviar! I have always been a fan of eggs with truffle, and this was a new method of presenting them together with new inspirations and ingredients. Unlike the usual way of having poached eggs with truffle, this was served with spinach immersed in creamy parmesan. We were also offered hot mini baguette to eat with the cheese and the dish. Four words to sum up - I'm loving it! Dip one bite of spinach ravioli in parmesan, get a small serving of yolk, truffle and caviar. Put it in your mouth in one go! What a relish =D

I was a little full by that time when the fifth dish arrived - Duck, Pancetta, Morels, Edamame. The slices of duck were juicy and delicious but I guess I was a little too impressed by the previous dish that I found this one a little ordinary.

Moving on, we had the last main course of the night - Beef, Wild Mushroom, Garlic, Quinoa. Loved the beef, when you cut it into slices, you could literally feel the knife slid smoothly without much effort. The beef juice was well reserved in the meat and everything was a mouthful size, so it would not make you feel too full and leave some room for desserts!

While we were savouring the beef dish, I saw Chef Vicky Cheng placed a lot of plates together and started drawing on them with different colours and ingredients. It was in no time that I saw a beautifully drawn artwork - white and pink and dreamy. That was the time I realized our desserts were nearly ready.

The first dessert was Korean Strawberries, Mascarpone, Condense Milk. The Chef introduced this plate by himself and he explained he got the inspiration while he travelled to Japan once. There was a vanilla mochi, condensed milk yoghurt (very milky and smooth yet not sour) and strawberries and strawberry mousse with mascarpone. I liked it a lot and was a little sad to mix everything all up (i.e. ruined the masterpiece) while I finished up the dessert.

The last dessert of the night arrived and it was Hazelnut, Chili, Earl Grey, White Chocolate with a candle - to celebrate a birthday. There were three tiny dots of chilli at the corner of the plate which the chef advised us to put it in the mouth before eating the dessert. That stimulated the taste bud and added a little more spice to the sweetness of the desserts. My vote went to the Earl Grey ice-cream since it was indeed a new experience to feel a little spicy while eating cold ice-cream. Hazeulnut chocolate cake was nice as well but I was a little full to finish the whole plate.

It was an enjoyable night to overlook how the Chef created so many artwork during the dinner and appreciate his creativity. We were offered madeleines at the end of the dinner. I would come back again to try out the chef's new innovation, though I think the presenter of the dishes could be a bit more vocal or it would have wasted the chef's effort in letting people understand his artwork.

Honestly, I didn't realize this restaurant is an affiliate of Liberty Exchange until I was told by a friend during the dinner. No wonder they can keep such a great standard on food! I have been to Liberty Exchange couple of times & found their finger food (+ proper meal) were pretty creative & delectable. Here I go in this private kitchen where everyone is sitting at the chef table to be served.Liberty Private Works has a stunning view with its cozy dim setting inside. I guess they can serve

Honestly, I didn't realize this restaurant is an affiliate of Liberty Exchange until I was told by a friend during the dinner. No wonder they can keep such a great standard on food! I have been to Liberty Exchange couple of times & found their finger food (+ proper meal) were pretty creative & delectable. Here I go in this private kitchen where everyone is sitting at the chef table to be served.

Liberty Private Works has a stunning view with its cozy dim setting inside. I guess they can serve at most 26 people at the chef table setting. Personally, I don't really enjoy sitting on the bar stool, I'd rather relaxing myself in a comfortable chair to enjoy a 4-hour meal

Champignon mix starter - stunning! I am a mushroom lover so this was such a beautiful piece to kick off the meal. The mushroom soup in a shot glass was really amusing...love it!

Tuna, Espelette, Rice - Very interesting piece especially the crispy rice & the fruits on the 2 sides. Very refreshing & a good mix of sea urchin with tuna

Prawn, Razor Clam, Saffron, Bouillabaisse - they introduced this dish saying "it's all about shell fish", however, I couldn't really taste them except for the prawn.

Market Fish, Brussel sprouts, Ginger bread crumbs- among all the dishes, this was the most ordinary one; well, pls don't get me wrong, it's still delicious yet it's not surprising though. The ginger bread crumbs mingled interestingly with the fish...good try

Egg, Truffle, Parmesan, Caviar - OMG, this signature dish was awesome!!! 5 thumbs up!!! I have made a collage of this dish to show the before & after form of this dish. There's the egg yolk covered by the ingredients on top that you have to poke it through to break the yolk so that it mixed well with the truffle, parmesan cheese & caviar. I just couldn't stop myself from dipping the mini baguette with the sauce & sipping the Red...MARRIAGE !!!

Beef Cheek, Eggplant, Zucchini, Harissa - the 2nd main course was supposed to be lamb yet the chef swaped it with beef for those who are not into lamb. I was 95% full when this course arrived but I couldn't resist the temptation in trying a little bit of everything on this dish. The beef cheek was so tender and carried an intense beefy taste, really remarkable. Definitely a good alternative to lamb.

Lamb, Eggplant, Zucchini, Harissa - I cut a small piece of lamb from my friend's dish, again, it's very tender & juicy, yet I like the beef better...a personal choice after all.

Fruits, Soda, Sorbet, Roasted, Poached - We (13 of us) all witnessed the creativity of the chef & how he came up with this piece of art. Therefore, it's not only about food/ingredients but also his heart & passion towards cooking here. This dessert was another surprise & made me feel like having the molecular gastronomic food.

Hazelnut, Chilli, Earl Grey ice-cream, White Choco - Among alll the items in this dessert plate, my vote goes to the Earl Grey ice-cream, very creamy Earl Grey tea flavor just flourished in your taste bud
