When the skies opened last Saturday unleashing a torrential downpour that ruined Clockenflap for me, my girlfriend and I decided to recalibrate and comfort ourselves with an indulgent brunch at The Drawing Room (TDR). It also happens to be right across from where I live on Staunton Street, which means we got to avoid walking too much under the rain.

I had actually gone to TDR the night before only to get turned away at the door. Fully booked on a Friday night! Guess walking in is not an option here (on a weekend). Thankfully K had the good sense to call in advance and book us a table.

The SettingYou'll get decent outdoor views and natural lighting here. We would have loved to move in and out of the wide terrace for drinks / coffee / tea had the weather not been so appalling. I can imagine doing the al fresco thing here would be pleasant (I see it all the time from my bedroom window, and always thought "lovely spot for tea and a book")

Layout is comfortably spaced out, arrangement is long like a corridor, so it doesn't feel like diners are concentrated.

While waiting for K to arrive, I entertained myself with the paper and colouring pencils they provided. We adults never realise how we never do these things anymore - hardly do anything outside of a screen.

We decided on the 3 course brunch for our eating spree. The 4 course with pasta would have been too much, so forwent the carb overload.

Appetizers to shareWe thought we would choose 1 each from the 4 appetizers, but to our delight (and to our diet's dismay) - all four appetizers were served to share. The Pawn does that too, feels a bit wrong to spoil ourselves this much, really...

Let's begin with the best one:
capesanta pan seared scallops & pork ragout on toast

Capesanta: Pan seared scallops & pork ragout on toast
Fresh scallops cooked exactly the way I love, the toast's crisp texture perfectly complementing the meat. K ever so generously offered half of hers to me when I gushed about it. That's a real friend.

The rest of the appetizers are in random order as they were more or less in the same level after the standout scallops.

Insalata: Organic mixed salad leaves w/ pickled mushroom Something green and fresh to make us feel 'healthier'  about the meal

Mozzarella & salumi: Buffalo mozzarella w/ italian charcuterie & gnocco fritto
I can't stand cured meat but the buffalo mozzarella was amazing - both in consistency and flavour.

Pesce: Marinated fish w/ avocado, green apple & espelette
Basically an Italian version of ceviche / tartare. I loved the tangy sweetness of the apple mixed with the raw fish marinated in lemon/lime.

By this time I was obviously so stuffed that I could have easily skipped the mains and gone straight to dessert. But we soldiered on:

I got the Merluzzo & gamberi: wild caught cod & prawns “a la plancha” w/ parsley & garlic
I was able to finish the prawns, which were deliciously cheesy, but not as fresh as I would have liked. All the butter-garlic-cheese flavours made up for the slight rubberiness of the prawns.

The fish was drowning in oil and seasoning, but still delicious. I had this packed and ate it for lunch on Monday. It also came with sinfully good baked potatoes that invaded my office with its rich aroma. Needless to say, food envy abounded.

K ordered the ginormous Manzo: black angus striploin steak “a la plancha” w/ rosemaryImpeccably tender, cooked to perfection. Loved the greens (overly flavoured and rich again) but we didn't touch the bellpeppers. Nothing against them, I guess that's just not our favourite vegetable.

If there were to be a next time, I would probably go for the 'Polletto roasted marinated whole baby Ffrance spring chicken' instead of the fish.

And now to my favourite part: desserts! Unfortunately, this is not TDR's forte.

We tried to get artistic with this one. Can you spot the lady behind the complimentary sweets? Another masterpiece and joint effort by K and I.Bestie brunch

Would we go back?TDR is a luxurious, pampering, 2-3 hour long affair justified by a special occasion. The price point is too high for it to become a regular weekend thing for me though, but to try it once, on an indulgent day, I would definitely recommend it. Don't forget to book in advance!

接下來我們點了sea urchin risotto ($320). 這個義大利飯和我想像中的不一樣,我以為是有一大塊海膽擺在飯上面。但上來的時候發現海膽影子都看不見,原來全部融合在汁裡面了/.\ 我覺得這樣吃起來比較普通,只是淡淡吃出一點點的海膽味,不能滿足呢。飯不會煮得很軟,份量很迷你。

然後我們點了Italian red prawn linguini($340). 我比較少見到fine dining餐廳用red prawns而不是tiger prawns,因為red prawns實在很小,擺在碟上只有兩小隻很不大器。但正面的是意粉味道很不錯,軟硬程度也剛剛好。

最後我覺得是整個晚餐的亮點,甜點warm caramelized brioche with vanilla icecream($90). 這個焦糖布里歐麵包蛋香味很濃,上面的焦糖脆脆的,而且整個感覺不會很甜,配上雲尼拿雪糕很好味!我很喜歡這家餐廳的環境,至於食物味道嘛,就各花入各眼,哈哈和女朋友們約會可以考慮試試這家餐廳喔♥

友人牛一, 搵間好餐廳去慶祝一下, 考慮過四季酒店既Caprice, 不過被身邊好友勸阻, 告之質素已經跌左唔少, 加上在下喺openrice睇食評時, 啲食物相望落的確麻麻地, 縱使挾住2粒星星, 但睇落唔值得拎生日飯做賭注. 而喺幾個月前, 在下聽聞The Drawing Room 載譽歸來, 諗番起當日喺呢間餐廳食過2次好滿意既晚餐, 所以決定番黎試一試~

<餐廳來頭>

循例介紹一下餐廳, 一提The Drawing Room 呢3個字, 就知係勁野~  I mean當年~ 哈哈! 果陣剛剛出米芝蓮, 全香港咁多間知名意大利餐廳 (有pizza hut 啦, spaghetti house 啦, 講笑者~ 例如有Sabatini @ 帝苑酒店, The Mistral @ 海景嘉福, 等等等知名意大利fine dining 餐廳), 就淨係得The Drawing Room拎到星星, 一千零一間, 風頭一時無兩, 果陣時booking 滿到三個月後. 而佢既成名菜就係紅蝦意粉, 食過既客人都念念不忘!

不過餐廳喺幾年前就close左, 原因係主廚Mr. Roland 覺得係時候要開一個新既Project, 去下一個里程卑, 熟客個個都大感可惜, 人家都未食夠… 等到今年, 終於回歸, 由果陣既銅鑼灣搬到黎PMQ, 佔領左Vasco西班牙餐廳既竇口. 用餐環境靚左, 不過大廚Roland亦唔再喺度打骰… 桃花不依舊, 人面也全非, 究竟佢仲係唔係當年既 The Drawing Room呢? 真係要試過先知~

<嚴重扣分位>

知道餐廳匿埋喺PMQ, PMQ聽就聽得多, 在下知道佢係一個新商場, 大概喺中上環, 但去就真係第一次去… 喺紅磡搭過海巴士104號, 去到威靈頓街附近落車, 跟住就GG了… 大家都知中上環啲路幾難行幾複雜,路又窄斜路又多, 大熱天時三十幾度,  拎住部電話用google map, 真係成吉思汗打仔, 屬於崩潰級別.

行左十五分, 鍾於搵到PMQ, 原來佢一共有三棟, Block A 同Block B 同埋連接佢地既一小棟, 唔知Block 咩… 但水牌指示唔清楚, find out餐廳原來喺Block B, 而我地就喺Block A 兜兜轉轉, 又當失路, 又要搵條路過番去Block B, 最後行到成身濕晒同硬晒 – I mean 在下個拳頭, 真係未食都一肚火!!!

<叫野食>

不過入到餐廳, 見到咁靚既環境, 條氣順番一半, 加上餐廳冷氣充足, 成個人好快cool down 番, 當然杯Sparkling Water with Lime都有唔少功勞~

Weekend 黎到, 全宇宙都係食同一個menu - Weekend Roast Brunch: 3 個Courses (前菜, 主菜, 甜品) 盛惠$488, 加多個Pasta Course 就$588~ 一場黎到, 都唔爭在果一百蚊啦!

前菜有四款, 每款都幾吸引, 正正諗緊簡邊樣既時候, 侍者走過黎告之原來唔駛簡, 因為四款都有齊晒~ 在下都不禁打左個突, 咁抵?! 冚齊?! 至於意粉course就三簡一, 主菜同甜品都係四簡一, 好多選擇, 正!

餐廳另外有樣野幾得意, 為左配合 Drawing 呢個字, 餐廳特登喺枱面放左啲顏色筆同一張細畫紙, 俾大家露兩手, 不過在下見啲畫筆都好乾淨, 加上長短一樣齊葺葺…估計都係得個擺字, 應該冇人真係會落手呱~

<叫野飲>

Weekend Lunch 有個超正既offer, 就係加$200 可以free flow 香檳, 加$100 free flow 紅白酒, 不過考慮到在下晏晝要學車, 為免未有牌先被釘牌,  free flow 似乎唔太搏得過, 而友人則喺前一晚已經劈左個通宵, 今日都不宜飲太多. 所以我地兩個每人叫杯紅酒by glass 襯番個main course就好了.

題外話: $100 free flow 紅白酒好似平左啲喎… 第一下感覺好抵, 但第二下感覺就好伏, 100蚊? 天下間邊有咁大隻蛤乸? 枝酒仲唔係made in China?? 雖然侍者解釋番賣到咁平唔係因為枝酒唔靚, 而係佢地做緊promotion… 原諒在下膚淺… “平野冇好野” 呢個concept已經被深深植入~

面包雖然得一款, 不過剛剛焗起, 所以算唔錯, 最怕食到啲攤凍晒既面包. 至於在下俾滿分係因為佢枝棷欖油, 同街邊食開果啲好唔同, 醇好多, 杰身好多, 香好多, 好味到在下下意識咁將啲面包當做海綿, 狂索落啲橄欖油度食!

第一道既前菜, 沙律是也, 正常貨色, 猜想廚師知道未必個個鍾意火箭菜, 怕佢苦, 所以呢度主角用左波菜葉, 又係在下既最愛. 但佢好食既主要原因並不在此, 所謂禮多人不怪, 油多菜不壞, 呢度正正體驗到呢句說話~ 餐廳用左 Jamie Oliver 所講既A Little Bit 橄欖油 (者係其實超多…) 去撈勻啲菜, 誇張講句,  每一塊波菜葉都被啲油封住, 又香又滑, 咁你話點會唔好食呢? 只不過又難為了在下既6 packs… 佢地開始又共聚一堂了…

火腿咸香不過咸, 易咬唔韌, 雖然切到少少碎同好薄, 但咬落仲有油脂滲出, 應該唔係cheap野~ (唔似早一個月喺Bistecca食到既ham, 一味死咸). 除左火腿, 每人都有一舊水牛芝士, 不過佢唔係在下杯茶, 嫌佢淡味, 所以係咁易淺嚐過便算了, 不過友人似乎好欣賞…

配火腿同芝士仲有啲軟糯既炸面粉, 呢個係重點, 因為你食完會重到一個點, 哈哈, 爛gag~ 炸面粉香味十足, 夾埋落啲火腿度, 與其話佢地相輔相成, 不如話佢地狼狽為奸, 兩樣邪惡既野加埋一齊, 只會變成罪惡… I mean 罪惡感… 叫人點停到口呢, 唯有一路食一路纖悔…主啊, 寬恕我把口吧, 睇在在下既6 packs份上…

呢個其實似啊根庭既Ceviche, 者係用生果汁醃海鮮~ 賣相唔錯, 用上靚靚花瓣黎裝飾呢道本身幾醜樣既菜 (因為佢都係將啲野切粒撈埋一齊, 好睇極有限) 味道都ok, 魚生配牛油果個感覺幾新鮮, 一個軟綿, 一個軟爛. 成個菜酸酸昧昧幾開胃, 青蘋果同橘子間唔中出一出場, 吊一吊味, 為酸味帶來一點甜, 為軟糯送上一點清爽~ (Yoho! 呢兩句勁有文學feel~)

又係一道好神奇既配搭, 帶子鮮甜, 不過太細舊, 頂唔住樓下豬肉既強勁光茫, 所以唔係好發揮到出黎… 至於舊豬肉有幾強勁?? 友人一聞話好香, 一食話好正, 咁梗係啦!! 我頂… 全部都係肥豬肉黎既.. 不過, 做人勻真啲, 除左卡路里高之外, 佢的確係一件天下美食, 豬肉又淋又香, 同塊脆多士係絕配, 加埋帶鮮味既煎帶子, 正啊喂!

食到呢度, 在下知道6 packs 應該冇救了… 唯有唸必殺咒語減輕一下罪孽: 都係聽日先減啦~

在下一直懷念佢地既紅蝦意粉, 心諗蝦同蟹其實係Friend, 應該都會好好食, 所以就簡左呢個~ 上到枱, 賣相ok, 見到廚師好有心機將蟹肉, 翠玉瓜同啲椒切絲, 切到好似同意粉咁上下. 先講味道, 還可以, 意粉係Al dente, 蟹肉算多, 不過整體蟹味唔太濃郁, 同在下以前食果個紅蝦意粉有段天地既距離, 有期望所以會失望~.

不過敗筆係口感, 大廚故意將所有材料切絲, 但一絲絲既蟹肉咬落去令在下覺得似喺度食緊伊面 (即管當在下太好想像力吧)…成件事down grade 晒~

友人既Pasta Course, 雖然佢個賣相在下都認為係爭啲啲, 成個大家樂太極駌鴦焗飯茄汁果一part, 不過個器皿又的確幾趣緻, 所以搶回少少分數.

在下當然打番少少稅, 畢一羹試下, 飯夠煙韌, 汁醬夠濃, 幾重芝士味, 係高水準之作, 不過未到亮點~ 最後咬既係隻蜆, 一咬落去就不禁食神裏面既薛家燕上身: 嘩! 好好食既蜆啊! 蜆肥加上冇overcook, 所以依然保持嫰滑, 最冇得輸係佢本身既蜆味, 濃郁程度媲美一次過放10隻本地蜆落口, 食到在下同友人都Lam晒脷, 植樹舞子! 強烈推介是也!

不過呢, 樓上既菜名冇寫有蜆呢樣材料, 所以都唔Sure仲係唔係呢個Risotto, 定或者係廚師當日轉左第二款risotto俾我地?

主菜有四款簡, 有好吸引既羊架, 肉眼扒, 春雞, 同埋在下叫既小牛肉架. 羊架在下一個月前喺Petrus食左 (basically 係偷食左友人一小舊, 質素之高可以用感動級黎形容, 費事呢度會被比下去), 至於肉眼扒, 在下始終覺得鋸扒要去番扒房 (例如超正既Beefbar 或者Ruth’s Chris), 春雞就更加唔駛講…咁耐以黎, 都未遇過一隻好雞, I mean好味既春雞, 永遠都係鞋烚烚… 所以決定go for呢個for two persons 既Veal. 注意: 佢係2人份量, 是故在下要跟友人share~

賣相唔錯, 上到枱已經切好晒一舊舊, 出面鋪滿綠色既香草醬, 入面係烤到接近熟透既Medium Well. 望落冇咩血色, 擔心會唔會太韌, 不過最後證實擔心係多餘既, 縱使冇血水, 但依然保持嫰滑, 肉汁充沛, 油份適足, 係一件不可多得既 “好肉”! 不過可能仲係小牛既關係, 肉味唔係太濃, 對重口味既在下黎講, 略嫌清純左啲, 不過會推介俾啲怕羶唔食羊既朋友.

最後埋單時同經理傾左陣計, 佢話通常客人第一次黎佢都會推介佢地食羊, 因為係佢地既signature, 只不過見在下一開始就好似主意已決咁叫左小牛仔, 無謂掃我地興, 在下聽後不禁講左句… shit!…點都好聲好氣勸下我地嘛, 例如講句: 咦?!今日啲羊好似好靚喎, 真係唔試下?? 最衰在下叫菜果一刻醒唔起, 呢一生人食過最好味既羊架…其實就係喺The Drawing Room (本身喺銅鑼灣果間), 唉…整定.. 注定在下要番黎多一次食羊架~哈哈哈~ 很好既借口.

配菜有焗薯同焗椒, 薯仔唔知咩品種, 勁香薯味, 本身皮已夠薄, 加埋焗到脆一脆, 入口又粉嫰, 同友人都起勢咁讚, 一路讚就一路叉一舊落口, 完全忘記薯仔係減肥大敵人… 薯仔上面仲有兩隻意大利乾蕃茄, 又係好味道. 焗椒齊晒紅黃綠三隻色, 隻隻都好味, 不過似乎友人唔係椒友, 食左一隻就口停手停, 交俾在下吧, 在下最鍾意吔椒架啦~

Dessert 甜品

唔駛審, 芝士控既在下當然又簡左芝士, 一共7款芝士, 在下request每樣試少少, 有勞餐廳經理Mr. Ho Lau啦, 真係切到手軟. 芝士款款都係黎自意大利, 有牛奶, 有羊奶, 有mix, 有blue cheese, 不過佢地啲名在下真係記唔到, 淨係記得灰色果隻係黑松露芝士~

在下就真係無法子細緻形容每一款芝士, 不過總括黎講每隻都好平易近人, 就算blue cheese 都屬於入門級, 絕對唔似 (全部都帶極高挑戰性). 黑松露味果隻幾特別幾好食, 友人打稅試味, 試完一啖又一啖, 最後足足試左3份2舊…咁仲叫試咩….?

另外一讚既係condiments, 有簿切sourdough 面包, 果醬, 同超好味既蜜糖 (高級蜜糖黎, 食得出唔係一般貨色). 夾埋佢地落芝士度, 再飽都食得落! 講笑者, 芝士其實都幾濟下~

由於個芝士拼盤太吸引, 在下相都唔記得影就已經開始食, 所以唔齊七舊, 有兩舊喺肚…

同酒師講想要啲full bodied既紅酒, 佢就介紹左兩款俾我地, 一款係Molettieri, 一款係2013年既Cannonau Di Sardegna, 呢兩個字在下睇唔明, 不過唔明都唔緊要, 重點係前者$180 per glass, 後者$98 per glass. 貴唔一定好, 平唔一定差, 但貴會好過平, 玄呢~ 總之呢堆數字令在下簡左前者啦, 而事實證明在下冇簡錯, 杯酒係在下杯茶, 好啱口味~ (應該簡啱呱…反正在下冇得做比較, 幾歹都話自己啱)

整體黎講每道菜都好高水準, 無論味道, 賣相, 份量, 在下都俾好高分! 除左在下既意粉菜式有少少失望, 其餘野食在下都十分滿意! 有驚喜不過未到超大驚喜, 主要原因係在下未食到佢地既Signature – 紅蝦意粉, 羊架, 同埋餐廳經理極力推介既乳鴿, 下次黎, 試埋佢地再評過!

注意番, 呢度絕對唔係啲追求瘦身既人可以黎既地方, 菜式偏heavy, 更偏高卡路里. 自己簡, 一係食好西, 一係有6 packs, 或許這就是傳說中吃貨的悲哀… 不過, 在下就要破呢個咀咒, 決心做第一個! 第一個有6件腹肌既賤貨, sor, 係吃貨!!!

服務COMMENT

所有待者包括酒師都好專業, 落菜時都有簡介下道菜係咩, 而絕大部分都好好笑容, 又有禮貌!  加分位係他鄉遇故知, 世界真細小, 唔覺意遇到師兄 (大家傾談之後先發現原來大家都喺同一間餐廳做過), 大家臨尾都傾左大約10分鍾, 得悉師兄做過唔少知名餐廳, 又識唔少人, 勁啊! 相比之下, 脫離左酒店行業逹五年之久既在下, 似乎已經對飲食界行情有少少脫節~

友人生日, 本身book枱時order左喺甜品度寫番句Happy Birthday, 無奈友人好叫唔叫叫雪糕做甜品, 細細杯, 人地點寫字呢? 不過, 餐廳好細心, 特登整左張生日卡, 俾我地拎住黎影即影即有相 (provided by 餐廳), 都算一個幾窩心既服務.

服務係好, 不過仲未完美, 樓下有兩點仲有改善既空間.

Reception 姐姐好似爭左少少少少少主動, 既然行得Fine Dining 呢條路, 自然要同五星級酒店餐廳既Service睇齊,  Greeting同講88都屬於整個dining experience 既其中一環, 由一開始聽電話接booking 到個客離開Reception 講thank you 幫客人禁lift, 個客人已經開始計緊數應唔應該再翻桌~

另外有一樣野真係要講一講, 其實有人喺openrice已經提過, 由於我地坐細房, 好多時都俾侍者忽略, 舉極手都冇人應, 佢地喺條走廊行黎行去都唔察覺到有客人召喚緊佢地, 當然, 在下又冇理由勁大聲咆哮: 唔該! 有冇人啊? … 話晒都係高級餐廳, 不過有幾下爭啲忟到想自己行出去叫佢地. 又之不過, 在下同友人都唔趕時間, 等下又冇咩所謂, 所以唔太受影響, 但餐廳真係要注意一下.

環境COMMENT

環境呢Part認真無得彈, 唔計一間private room, 餐廳有兩間細房同一個大廳 (所謂大廳, 其實都唔係話太大, 都係擺到4張4-6人梳化枱), 大廳如下圖般一樣咁靚. 而果兩間細房就放左兩張2人枱~ 所以計埋計埋其實都唔係坐到好多人, 所以當日就算full house, 其他客人喺度高談闊論, 都唔會話覺得太嘈.

裝修摩登時尚, 夾番呢度所提供既現代意大利菜, 不過, 裝修點靚都係最緊要地方闊絡, 枱同枱之間有足夠既距離, 咁就唔駛同隔離枱share秘密啦!

抵唔抵食?

直頭抵到爛啦! $558 四個courses, 包埋咖啡茶, 仲有7款芝士食, 前菜仲要係齊晒4款, 如果夾硬計, 一共有成7個courses~ 而任飲香檳紅酒都係加多百幾蚊 (雖然在下冇叫到…), 服務好, 環境更加一流, 呢間野已經被納入在下既飯堂~

最後, 喺度再次同友人講聲生日快樂! 謹祝閣下黎緊既Tripsss玩得開心愉快 (又話唔知幾月去美國, 幾月去歐洲, 幾月去古巴, 有錢真係任性~)

由於呢餐太好味既關係, 在下喺埋單時已經順手訂埋10月30日, 與另一位好試試佢既夜晚, 趁機嚐嚐紅蝦意粉, 睇下係咪依舊咁好味, 睇下the drawing room係咪真係番左黎,  楽しみ~

友人剛回港一心諗住試下d新野見
見drawing room d comment 都幾好
就book左晚餐試下

fine dining $9xx + 10% 就唔算貴
但如果咁嘅服務態度同質素
應該好快做唔住
環境普通食開pmq都知唔係sell海景同裝修

可能早book關係安排左坐係個房仔
成日都無人行過每次有需要都要自己行出去搵人serve

講反個menu 一個係special menu (今期做truffle) 但係個個有truffle 嘅course 都要加錢
咁點解唔真接set高嗰價?

如果要數近期最令我欣喜的餐廳,必定是The Drawing Room了,無論在食物、環境及服務上都有著卓越的質素。早前得知他們的前身Vasco要結業時,不禁流露了一絲絲的不捨,可是這間前一星殊榮的餐廳進駐後,客人都喜貪新忘舊了。店內的裝潢與以前相差不是太明顯,不過座位擺法感覺上比較舒適,窗口位置亦從此變得通光起來,可以更能欣賞到窗外的景緻。其中那間新穎的圓形房間仍保留著,依然與樓下那一層相連接,大廳過後,依然還有VIP房,而內裡竟然變了半個畫廊,掛上了數幅藝術品,上面亦標了價錢,喜歡的話,是可以買走的。這間餐廳叫做The Drawing Room,所以每位客人枱上都放有畫紙及顏色筆,貫徹了餐廳的概念,不妨將自己的幻想展現出來,可能就是那一張畫而令你搖身一變為名畫家呢。打開餐牌一看,分有Seasonal Tasting Menu及Classic Tasting Menu兩款,而每款每個項目又有兩款可選,客人可選擇食四道菜或五道菜,再按自己口味去選擇食物,對於有少許選擇困難症的我真是非常地好。侍應隨即送來了餐前小食及麵包,有外型獨特的脆麵包條,也有熱烘烘的餐包,塗點牛油,最為好吃。同時,這

侍應隨即送來了餐前小食及麵包,有外型獨特的脆麵包條,也有熱烘烘的餐包,塗點牛油,最為好吃。同時,這個小小的餐前小吃,卻蘊含著巨大的滋味,輕柔的薯仔泡沫中帶著香噴噴的黑松露香,而杯底更有甜椒作點綴,可見其細膩的功架。

當晚我選擇了Classic Tasting Menu來吃,在頭盤方面,我選擇了【Quaglia – grilled quail with
foie gras mousse, shallots & red cherry marmalade】,以煙肉包裹在鵪鶉上烤,油份滲進肉質細嫩的鵪鶉內,帶上絲絲的咸香,伴以幼滑的鵝肝慕絲,有著味道雙重奏的美味,還可沾上旁邊的櫻桃果醬,中和了油膩感。

頭盤要了濃味的,second course就來點清新的【Piselli – green pea soup with pan-seared scallop】。侍應會先送上香煎帶子伴青豆,隨後就將青豆湯倒進盤裡,青豆湯打得幼滑而有微少沙沙的感覺,伴以鮮嫩可口的帶子,兩者結合為一,不但美味,還可一洗前菜的餘韻。

來到主菜前的意粉了,相信很多人都會在這個項目上非常苦惱,兩者都以味道取勝,究竟選擇海膽,還是意大利紅蝦好呢?最終選擇了【Linguine – Italian red prawn linguine with fresh tomato & chili】,扁麵的質感爽口煙韌,伴以蕃茄及紅椒做成的惹味醬汁,酸香醒胃,最重要的不要錯過紅蝦蝦頭內的蝦膏,鮮味濃郁,雖然份量頗多,但卻令人停不了口,印象深刻。

到觸目的主菜了,大家都知小弟是一個牛魔皇,可是我卻偏偏沒有選上牛柳,而是點上烹調上頗考火喉的【Piccione – char-grilled pigeon served with sautéed organic baby broccoli & spinach】。一刀切下柔軟的鴿肉,中間呈現亮麗的嫩粉紅色,慢慢細嚼一下,鴿肉特有的香味濃厚,帶點內臟的味道,吃不慣的人會極度厭惡,可是喜歡的人就一定知道這是極品,真是值得推介。

來到甜品環節了,當然點上【Brioche – warm caramelized brioche with vanilla ice cream】。實在很難抗拒那種表面煎得微微焦香甜美,內裡充滿牛油香氣又鬆軟的甜品,伴以雪糕同吃,一冷一熱,真是滋味無窮。

經過是晚的體驗,質素絕對比Vasco有過之而無不及,在價錢上卻更為抵吃,四道菜是$798,而五道菜則是$998,同時可以在環境、服務、食物及氣氛上都有上佳表現的餐廳來說,絕對是抵吃。

對於Chef Roland ,我與他的初次相遇是在Aspasia (或者大家可能已經忘記了有這個地方),隨後就是The drawing room當中有兩道菜式是叫我難以忘懷的,一個就是紅蝦意粉,而另一個就牛三味(牛扒、牛面、牛舌)。回頭再吃已經身在元創方的The drawing room,雖然seasonal menu很吸引,但是我仍堅持選了classic menu!試過年輕大廚Gabriele Milani的手藝之後,真是不可少看現在的年輕廚師啊!晚餐大家可以因應自己的食量而選擇4或5道菜式的晚餐。先選一個香軟的麵包,為晚餐揭開序幕.前菜是燒鵪鶉配鵝肝慕士,燒鵪鶉份量小,因此生熟也比較難掌握,過熟的話肉質變老就不好吃了。鮮甜的鵪鶉不配煎鵝肝,而是慕士,少了肥膩感,作為前菜也算恰當。由於沒有選第二前菜,接下來的就是叫人懷念的紅蝦意粉。紅蝦的蝦油充份浸入意粉中,入口甘香豐腴。而對於意大利主廚煮的意粉,我是完全有信心的,軟硬適中而有口感。來到主菜的環節,我又選了叫人懷念的安格斯牛腰肉及牛舌,配上芥辣汁,牛肉濃煙,鬆化美味,至於牛舌油份充足,入口甘香,愛牛者不可錯過!至於甜品方面,選了清新的

想不到The Drawing Room可以再度重來,店內保留了前身Vasco的高格調路線,而且VIP房更見華麗氣派,在餐前更可以悠閒地使用顏色筆及畫紙畫畫四周的環境或食物,實在是很有趣的感覺。餐廳由意大利來港的總廚Chef Gabriele Milani主理,Gabriele曾在多間米芝蓮餐廳任職,實力無庸置疑,亦是一個令人期待位。檯上放了蕃茄及原味的 Grissini,全是自家製的,誠意度十足,咬落香脆可口,真是未入正題,已經令人期待。餐前的自家製麵包款式不算多,但滿有麥香,如果不是要留多點胃部空間,恐怕來兩round都不夠。Amuse Bouche - Truffle potato foam with bell pepper其實是前店的名物,餐廳刻意保留,在輕柔的泡沫薯蓉加入甜椒及澆上松露油,入口芳香馥郁,幼滑細嫩,真的一點都不簡單。Burrata - Creamy Burrata with Raw Tomato Juice & Marinated Italian Red Prawn ($320)絕對是整晚的驚喜位,色澤豔麗的意大利紅蝦,肉質鮮嫩爽彈,與龍蝦之類是截然不同的兩種質感

Burrata - Creamy Burrata with Raw Tomato Juice & Marinated Italian Red Prawn ($320)
絕對是整晚的驚喜位,色澤豔麗的意大利紅蝦,肉質鮮嫩爽彈,與龍蝦之類是截然不同的兩種質感,舌尖都能感覺到的鮮活,即時澆上蕃茄汁,與墊底的水牛芝士更是絕配,令整道菜不論構圖或在味道上都完美而歸一,也許單單為了這道菜,已足以令自己跑一轉。

Quaglia - Grilled Quail with Foie Gras Mousse, Shallots & Red Cherry Marmalade ($240)
鴨肝慕絲質感幼滑如綿,柔若如絲,蘸點一下伴碟的櫻桃果醬,抵消了油膩感,就算與膽固醇緊扣,也不妨試試,至於鵪鶉肉肉質嫩滑,獨有的肉香帶來的餘韻是更深層次的享受。

若不是有人解說,很難相信眼前肉質依然胭紅而幼嫩的安格斯牛柳,是經由先烤再慢煮再烤的方式處理,而不失柔嫩的口感,肉味依舊的香濃,伴碟的丁方牛舌,有著吸引的嚼口,對於牛魔王的朋友,更加是不容錯過。

Vasco Fine dining was one of my very favourite restaurants in Hong Kong (see post here and here).

When I found out that it was closing, I was devastated. Why hadn't I gone and supported it more! I still remember so fondly the olive oil sommelier and the incredibly inventive and tasty Spanish cuisine.

Sigh, that's Hong Kong for you!

Then, I found out that the space that Vasco occupied at historic PMQ was to be taken over by by The Drawing Room, a restaurant that held the hearts of Hong Kongers so well before closing down a few years back. Not to mention having held a Michelin Star for many years also.

My excitement grew, when I found that, Drawing Room Concepts, the team behind Vasco were driving the new iteration of the Drawing Room. In fact, the chef that had provided the taste sensations that delighted me at Vasco, Chef Gabriele Milani, would continue to be the driving force in the kitchen.

My acceptance was complete. Spanish would make way for Italian. Bring on The Drawing Room.

Like many new (or reborn) restaurants in Hong Kong, it was difficult to make a booking for TDR, so much so that Saturday nights were booked out more than a month in advance, so I had to make do with a Friday night spot - after work.

There was a very familiar feeling as we made our way from pre drinks at Aberdeen Street Social (see post here), up through PMQ to the very top floor. It was almost a case of deja vu as we were met at the level six reception and were escorted upstairs. As we were given our seats, it would be easy to forget that Vasco had demised and a new restaurant had taken it's place. In fact, the only real difference that I could see was the change of name; everything else remained the same.

It would be so easy for me to reflect and comment about the differences between Vasco and The Drawing Room, so I will try to refrain!

As an homage to the restaurant's name, we noticed a set of colouring pencils and a note page, adorned with The Drawing Room, clearly intended for a fun start to the meal. My colouring in days finished in primary school, but the girl, being a natural artist, was busy creating her trademark portraits on the paper - massive smile on her face. If the concept was to relax diners before a meal, then it was mission accomplished for us.

I couldn't say the same for the couple that was seated next to us. They were clearly unimpressed with the 'sub standard' seating they were given, and complained very noisily, even very rudely until they were moved to a more 'acceptable' seat. I was impressed with how the wait staff dealt with these very rude customers. I was just glad they moved, who would want to sit next to such diners!

Our seats were fine by the way!

There are two menu options at The Drawing Room, the classic menu and the seasonal menu. Each had highlights and dishes to avoid and it would have been ideal if we could have chosen across menus, mmm, I wonder if that was an option? Anyway, we finally chose the five course tasting menu from the classic menu, which held slightly more allure than the seasonal menu.

Our amuse bouche arrived before long, consisting of diced green and red peppers topped with a light potato foam. The harshness of the peppers had been cooked away, leaving a subtle sweetness that worked in harmony with the starchy potato foam. The dish actually felt more Spanish than Italian, so the influences of Vasco could still be felt.

In fact, the echoes of Vasco would be felt thought the meal, with the first dish of langoustine tartare with amalfi lemon cream and cucumber mayonnaise being served on a Vasco plate. It seemed as if The Drawing Room had not invested in replacing the crockery of its predecessor. I found the langoustine tartare to be a little slimy, the texture sitting uncomfortably on my palate; although the flavours were lovely. I liked the combination of the fresh langoustine and lemon cream, both really quite fresh, but the texture was just a little off putting for my tastes.

We were next confronted by a perfectly cooked scallop sitting in a deep bowl and surrounded by fresh green peas as our next dish. A green pea soup was poured at the table and we were left with a sea of green and a perfectly caramelised scallop as the 'island' in the middle. It was indeed a beautiful dish, both visually and to eat. The freshness of the pea soup was appreciated and when combined with the sweet scallop, was a delight. My only minor quibble was that it could have done with a little more seasoning, to really help the pea soup 'pop'

We'd shared the same options for the first two course, but deviated for the remainder of the meal. It was also where our opinions of the meal became divided too.

For the pasta course, the girl chose the Italian red prawn linguine with fresh tomato and chilli, which at first glance looked very appetising. Unfortunately, the prawn was seriously over cooked, with a texture that was more akin to rubber. Worse, it seemed as if the prawn head had not been cleaned thoroughly and when SC pulled apart the prawn to taste, a grey goop came out of the head to contaminate the pasta. It was incredibly over powering and seriously put a dent in the girl's enjoyment of the pasta, in fact, she left most of it as it was quite unpalatable.

I fared much better with my spaghetti mancini with Hokkaido sea urchin and bottarga. With instructions to mix in the uni with the pasta, I started to devour my al dente pasta. However, it was only serviceable and there was no real wow factor with the dish. The sauce was fairly benign, with no really dominant flavour and once the uni was consumed, it was a little boring. I probably wouldn't order pasta from the Drawing Room again.

We were back on track with superb food with my main course of roasted black angus tenderloin with ox tongue, potato puree, baby roasted onion and a mustard sauce. Cooked a perfect medium rare, the presentation of the dish was 'top drawer' and very appetising to look at. Better, the beef was seasoned to perfection and was as tender as you could hope for. The potato puree was also beautiful, with a creamy texture and buttery taste, it was right up there with Joel Robuchon's iconic potato puree. I loved the dish and savoured every bit of the beef, right to the last bite.

However, as good as the beef was cooked, the ox tongue was over cooked, and I missed that spongy texture that perfectly cooked tongue provides.

The girl was still reeling from her pasta experience, which most certainly impacted her enjoyment of the char-grilled pigeon served with sautéed organic broccoli and spinach. The pigeon was cooked a perfect medium rare, and the parts that I tasted were quite nice, with a strong gamey flavour. However, the girl found that it was perhaps a little under cooked at it's thickest and, still feeling queasy from her pasta, left a lot of it for me to finish off. So, I was feeling quite full.

Not full enough though to pass up on the dessert of strawberries with orange, basil and mascarpone ice-cream! Wanting something light and refreshing to end the five course tasting menu, my choice was perfect, with macerated strawberries working perfectly with the sweet cream, a subtle hint of basil finishing off the flavour profile. It was very classic and for me, a great way to finish off the meal.

I'm sure that the girl would have forgone dessert it it wasn't a five course tasting menu, but in a way, she had by choosing the cheese course. As per the Michelin starred restaurants of Europe, a cheese cart was wheeled across for SC to make her selection of three cheeses. There wasn't a huge selection, but SC was able to select three benign cheeses, avoiding any controversial choices of any strong flavours, like the gorgonzola. The cheese platter went some way to erasing the memory of the prawn tragedy, but not fully. It was the part of the meal that SC remembers over all other dishes, no matter how good they were.

So, our meal finished and there was the big white elephant in the room. We decided not to comment about the prawn, other than SC declaring that she didn't really enjoy the dish when most of it was taken away by our waiter. Not honing in on that comment was probably the only flaw in the service, that was otherwise impeccable, especially the way our noisy and complaining 'neighbours' was handled. It would have been interesting to see how the rest of their meal went!

Everything that I'd heard about the previous iteration of The Drawing Room was that it was one of Hong Kong's finest restaurants. I'm not really sure why such a loved restaurant would close, nor why it would choose to open again in such a risky spot at the top floor of PMQ. I found the food to be slightly above average, but when I compare to my feelings after my Vasco visit, I wonder if it was the right move.

The Drawing Room had only been reopened for a short time, so perhaps it's unfair to be too critical of the prawn issue. However, when you are replacing a much loved venue and wanting to drive to a Michelin star, you cannot afford a dud dish; it becomes the dish most remembered.

SC and I walked away from The Drawing Room with very different opinions and memories; I wonder if the change from Vasco to The Drawing Room with leave Hong Kong diners equally divided?

The Drawing Room is back and it's better than ever. Does the name 'The Drawing Room' sound familiar? Well it should. The Drawing Room initially made waves in 2009 when it first opened in a small boutique hotel in Causeway Bay. It quickly made a real name for itself as one of the premier restaurants serving fine Italian fare in Causeway, dare I say, Hong Kong? The Drawing Room quickly garnered accolades, a Michelin star and an extremely loyal and hungry following. So when the restaurant closed down a few years back (for the time being) there were definitely more than a few people that were less than thrilled. But don't worry, because like I previously said, The Drawing Room is back and it's better than ever.
Brought to you by the guys behind Drawing Room Concepts: they've successfully opened Ammo, Isono, Alma, Made in HK, Hainan Shaoye, and Hawker 18 to name a few. The Drawing Room is helmed by Chef Gabriele Milani and now sits pretty on the 7th floor at PMQ occupying the plum spot that was once Vasco.
Alright enough chatter, lets get to the food. Be warned: you may salivate on your smart phone, computer screen, and/or keyboard....because I definitely did while writing this one. ;)

I went last week at 12:30pm to try out the new spot for lunch. As soon as we arrived, we were immediately greeted by friendly staff and quickly seated. A generous selection of bread sticks, sourdough bread and focaccia were placed right before our eyes.

We spilt the creamy burrata with raw tomato juice and marinated Italian red prawn. This was absolutely incredible. I loved the fresh, plump and juicy Italian red prawn (I could go on and on about that red prawn) which complemented the smooth and creamy burrata cheese perfectly.

I had the grilled quail with foie gras mousse, shallots, and red cherry marmalade. The quail was nicely executed, extremely lean yet tender and finished off nicely with the delicate and silky foie gras mousse. Nothing was wasted- every bit of the sauce and marmalade was devoured by us!

Okay, moment over. ;) The signature spaghetti mancini with hokkaido sea urchin and bottarga was stunning. The spaghetti mancini was a perfectly made al dente pasta. I loved the generous helping of creamy sea urchin and surprisingly really liked the salty bottarga (a fine salted, cured fish roe) that was mixed in. Some thought it was a bit too salty...but I was more than fine with it!
The Italian red prawn linguini with fresh tomato and chilli was superb. I'll definitely get that next time I come.

We were all super satisfied by the time our main course arrived. A tender roasted black angus tenderloin with ox tongue, potato puree and mustard sauce. I loved the thick, tender and juicy roasted black angus tenderloin. The ox tongue was soft-as-butter and nicely grilled. I happily finished every bite even though I was already super full.

Such beautiful plating. The last dish that arrived was a warm, caramelized brioche with vanilla ice cream and almond cream. The brioche was fabulous and packed full of flavor (we found out that it was soaked in caramel glaze for 12 hours, then dried and pan fried again to get that beautiful golden color.) I could not get enough of this amazing dessert. I want one right about now.

與麵包差不多時間上檯還有不花巧的 Amuse Bouche - Truffle potato foam with bell pepper,輕柔滑溜的薯泥泡沫加上松露油及甜椒,簡單而好吃,啟動了全場朋友的食慾!
 要知,餐廳刻意保留舊店名菜,但又細心加以改良,讓它們更以清新可人的新姿態重新登場,值得期待~

進入頭盤環節。感謝食友分享,這 Quaglia - Grilled Quail with Foie Gras Mousse, Shallots & Red Cherry Marmalade ($240) 就美如一幅畫,鵪鶉肉細嫩同時富有煙肉鹹香;又以鴨肝慕絲取代原件鴨肝,配以櫻桃果醬,令一切來得更清新!

去到 Pasta 環節,大部分人都選了 Spaghetti - Spaghetti Mancini with Hokkaido Sea Urchin & Bottarga ($290),意大利麵質感完美、無可挑剔,配以清甜北海道海膽及鮮濃烏魚子,每口都是幸福滿載的滋味。不過對女生來講,份量有點多,多吃會感覺一點膩呢。

想吃清新開胃點,或與美味的紅蝦再續前緣的話,可選 Linguine - Italian Red Prawn Linguine with Fresh Tomato & Chilli ($340)。感謝食友分享,這款紅蝦扁麵伴以鮮茄及甜椒,食感清鮮不膩;而優質紅蝦給煮至七分熟,效果也仍舊美妙。

以上菜式均於 Tasting Menu 內可選(官網可以看到更多),亦設散點(括號內就是價錢)。由於食物份量挺足,未到甜品已經很飽,但這 Brioche - Warm Caramelised Brioche with Vanilla Ice-cream 又是撞鬼的軟滑濕潤超好吃,甜魔媽媽忍不住想起 表參道 的 French Toast:人家用蜜糖,這裡就用上焦糖,其實是異曲同工之妙,再配上雲呢拿雪糕,秒殺無難度!
