Since they only have one set menu, we called in advance to check if they have any vegetarian menu. They said they do and the price is the same as the normal menu.

I had a high expectation for this restaurant as the set menu is even more expensive than some Michelin-starred restaurants.

But it turns out to be a complete disappointment.

Except the tomato tartar & smoked beetroot in which I can feel that the chef really did some effort on doing something extra for a vegetarian, the rest of the menu, he only removed the meat (expensive ingredients like sea cucumber, caviar, sea urchin) without replacing any other ingredients with the similar value, or at least made something more special for me (totally not value for money for a vegetarian)

Suggestion : restaurant manager / chef should have a cheaper menu for vegetarian if you cannot prepare the dishes with the same value !!!!!

What made me even upset is the main course (pork belly with asparagus), they only removed the pork belly, and I only had asparagus for the main.

The chef should be more considerate, and at least should replace the meat by some carb (I wasn't full at all....)

It's not a difficult task to cater a vegetarian, but obviously the chef doesn't really pay extra attention to it.

I will not recommend this restaurant to any of my friends.

Ever since Chef Vicky left Liberty Private Works late last year, I have been following every one of his moves closely on Instagram. From picking out his new digs, renovating the space to fielding and training his new team, every step of the way. So although I haven't been to VEA just yet, I seem to know the place pretty well already.

It's no secret that Chef Vicky has never failed to dazzle us with his creative fare all these years so to no one's surprise, his newest venture, VEA took off immediately following its soft opening. The place is absolutely packed every single night and it's been one of the toughest place to get a table in the city.

Like previously with Liberty Private Works, we gathered ourselves around the horseshoe-shaped bar table and got ourselves ready to be peppered with their wonderful creations one after another.

Firstly, we started the prix fixe dinner off with some grissini branches made with black olives and black pepper. That was accompanied by leaves made with pesto, pine nuts and egg white. Very interesting and unusual start to this meal.

Then a pair of nibbles arrived at the same time, first we have quail eggs pickled in Chinese ginger. This is a nice tribune to the boiled egg (along with pork trotters) in Chinese ginger and sweetened vinegar (薑醋蛋) often cooked for Chinese women after giving birth.

Very nice and runny yolk. I almost tried breaking the other two eggs in the basket but thankfully they stopped me just in the nick of time and told me it's for decoration purposes only.

Following an interesting array of amuse bouche, we were finally warmed up and ready to go. I was really excited about my first starter having seen the absolutely gorgeous presentation.

Judging from the colorful display, I knew for sure there are a lot of ingredients in there and yes indeed it's a very busy dish with tuna, Hokkaido sea urchin and espelette leading the way.

Here we have a bed of delicious tuna tartare with piment d'espelette emulsion that was topped with fresh sea urchin from Hokkaido, fermented radish, edible flowers, cucumber and scallion. The transparent layer on top was a burnt cucumber jelly that put a lovely finishing touch on the dish.

This is an extremely well designed dish with the perfect mix of contrasting temperatures, textures and flavors. I like the sweetness of sea urchin meshing well with the spicy espelette and pickled radish for a sophisticated and exciting dish. And as always, Chef Vicky is so great with finest details of each dish as he really impressed me by serving this on an ice cold plate to bring out the best of the tuna and sea urchin.

Anyone who has dined in Liberty Private Works before should be familiar with the frozen longan as this would always be provided alongside the first starter to deliver a sweet and refreshing touch.

The key here is obviously the broth which was prepared using star fruit juice among other flavorful ingredients giving it a very sweet taste and tangy texture. That was simply breathtaking.

Next we have Japanese sea cucumber stuffed with scallop mousse and served with a variety of seaweed, again from Japan, Iberico ham, asparagus and Okinawan sea grapes. It was an interesting dish but being the old-fashioned guy that I am, I have always thought that sea cucumber is better suited for Chinese cooking.

They left me scratching my head by pairing the ravioli with a small piece of deep-fried truffle flavored Chinese cruller. I know it's perfect for dipping into the parmesan foam but I thought the flavors didn't really match.

Very raw do we see Chef Vicky does a classic French dish so I was a bit surprised to have this dish as my first meat course. Bresse guinea fowl roulade was stuffed with foie gras and then served with compressed apples, pickled cabbage and truffle purée (the black dots). It was super juicy and very tender. Very nice.

Less successful was the 48-hour braised pork belly which was served with in-season Japanese firefly squid, French asparagus, morel mushrooms and pickled mustard seeds. They did well to balance the richness of the pork belly with the acidity from reduction of the pork bones, apple juice and apple vinegar but serving it with fermented vegetable purée managed to raise some eyebrows among the few of us (though I like the inspiration from the Chinese braised pork belly with preserved vegetables 梅菜扣肉).

My first dessert was a strawberry themed one with a lot of ingredients forming a circle in the middle of the plate. This included macerated strawberries, candied beetroot, rose-shaped beetroot and a scoop of strawberry flavored sorbet and it didn't take long before they started shoving strawberry and rose snow in the middle of the circle.

In my opinion, Chef Vicky's Liberty Private Works has been one of the greatest snub on the Michelin Guide since the guide arrived in Hong Kong back in 2008. Now with the change of scenery, would he finally capture that elusive star in the upcoming guide? I am eager to find out at the end of this year......

阿P非常欣賞那米黃色的 celariac puree,非常creamy,亦帶有來自”根芹菜”的濃厚及香甜。Celeriac puree 外國人都喜歡用來伴燒牛肉吃,想不到用以配野雞卷也不錯。但真正俘虜我的,卻是那呈深紅色的野雞骨汁,帶有非常濃郁的雞味,感覺就像吃雞的精華,以這個醬汁來伴野雞卷,實在是太美味了。其實野雞一般都比普通雞嚡口,但VEA烹調出來的卻非常嫩滑,肥瘦適中,那野雞皮亦烤得香脆可口。

看似簡單的一球雪糕,背後卻大有學問。VEA 都喜歡在甜品內加添一絲絲鹹意,使甜品更具層次。雪糕表面灑滿金黃色的粒粒,原來是刨過的蒸鴨蛋黄,難怪比芝士多了一份蛋香。伴碟的那些脆脆,原來是營養價值極高的藜麥,為雪糕增添嚼頭之餘,亦順便為客人補充營養。

中間的那層是 chocolate truffle 及香橙 macaron,兩者都甜度輕手,要特別一讚那 macaron,橙味天然濃郁。

最後服務員為我們奉上這玩意,還以為是餐前用來洗手的 magic napkin,原來是荔枝汁及荔枝味棉花糖,這首尾呼應也實在是妙極了!

最後VEA會為客人拍照留念,本來是一件極美好的事情,只可惜負責拍照的那位姐姐太心急了,令反應遲緩的阿P有點不知所措。原本他的眼已小,現在更小...

以上都是service上的小缺失,最重要還是食物質素。綜合PJ的意見,VEA 設計的 8 course set menu 是真心的物超所值,如果要我們選擇最喜歡的菜式,很糾結…我倆都決定不了,因為每一道菜都有它出色之處。VEA 的做法算不上是份子料理,處理手法卻十分新穎,將食物的精華用華麗的手法呈現給食客享用。Modern Cuisine 近年已紅爆全球,廚師除了要學會烹調美食外,亦要像 Scientist 一樣將科學融入煮食過程,將味道提升至極至,這就是 Modernist Cuisine 的吸引之處。

伊比利亞黑毛豬用嚟做ham就食得多,炸黑毛豬扒就真係第一次食。
一客2件嘅炸黑毛豬扒菠蘿包用一個小蒸籠裝住,每籠一件,賣相可愛,菠蘿包個面比一般脆身,但食落同樣甜甜的,炸豬扒肉厚而且鮮嫩,咬開仍有肉汁,配上豬扒醬汁同椰菜絲,啖啖滋味!

非常非常好食嘅truffle fries!呢款Parmesan truffle fries, truffle mayo 用一個小麻布袋裝住,上面有滿滿嘅parmesan cheese,下面有一隻泥鏟,啡色一粒粒似足泥土嘅其實係黑松露脆同松露蛋黃醬。薯條一送到已經傳嚟好香嘅松露香味,每條薯條都炸得香脆不油膩,配上松露蛋黃醬同松露脆脆真係令人食到停唔到口,而且份量其實好多,醬汁亦絕對足夠。

平時嘅海鹽焦糖雪糕已經將海鹽混入雪糕裏面,但呢度係將海鹽同雪糕三文治分開,可以按個人喜好點上適量嘅海鹽進食。雪糕外層係曲奇,厚度適中,鬆化帶牛油香,中間夾住厚厚嘅焦糖雪糕然後一分為四,雪糕唔容易溶,而且creamy無冰感, 伴上點點嘅海鹽食起黎更加滋味!

高級菠蘿油,呢個小小嘅菠蘿油每一個都用迷你蒸籠裝住,賣相可愛,一客有兩個,菠蘿包上面嘅脆皮比一般脆同硬,中間夾住皮厚厚嘅凍焦糖牛油,一開頭仲以為係雪糕,食真啲先發現係冰冰哋嘅牛油,牛油有焦糖味,帶點點咸,中西混合幾有趣。

好喜歡呢個地方,30/f嘅餐廳好似仲正,希望下次有機會去。

親戚從加國回港,與家人共聚晚餐後便帶她來 VEA 大談"少婦"心事。其實我想拜訪VEA已很久了...特別想試這裡的modern cuisine,PJ亦於3月份預留了日期於VEA慶祝我倆的11th Dating Anniversary,今晚前來正好來個熱身!Drink Menu 好多種類,睇到我頭都暈,正在苦腦之際,救星出現!有位態度親切的服務員有禮地問我們 "需要介紹嗎?"... 我立即點頭示好。他問 "小姐,我諗你應該鍾意甜啲,fruity啲嘅味道?" 咦?又比佢估中喎,立刻盡我能力報以一個甜笑回應 "係呀,我鍾意果味,有無好介紹?"最後服務員介紹我喝 Wild Strawberry Patch, 而對酒好有要求的表姑姐就要了一杯 Gin Martini。其實我倆已食到好飽,但我仍想試一試這裡的食物水準,於是便再次接納服務員建議,點了一客Chicken Liver Mousse來佐酒。來VEA當然要享受這裡的環竟及service,服務員先為我們奉上一張magic napkin,客人需自行將水倒進白色硬物,這硬物遇水便會湃漲成為一條柔軟的濕紙巾。其實在玩意早於多年前已玩過,但每次玩都覺

PJ都甚少喝酒,Dry Martini ($138) 這類酒精飲品我是等一次將它握在手中,感覺很有電影感。表姑姐叫我試一啖,嘩!又苦又"拿"喉,原來她向bartender指定了要'dry'啲,她說這杯  martini 合她口味,而我就要飲水清口腔。

將一大羹雞肝醬放在薄餅上然後一併放入口,立即嚐到質地柔滑的雞肝,然後一陣頗强的酸醋味隨之湧埋嚟。這雞肝醬沒有濃郁的"肝"味,卻多了一份柔滑,雖然並不是我最愛的味道,但仍不失為用心之作。

有留意開YFL-KELVIN的網誌,可能都會發現近幾個月我到訪中環威靈頓街的The Wellington,不下數次,這座銀座式商廈,不斷都有新成員加入,這天黃昏更上到頂層的VEA,來一次在威靈頓街高空的Happy Hour!VEA分兩層,30樓是新派法式餐廳,這晚只是飲嘢為主,便去29樓的Lounge。VEA Lounge給人一種古典美,有種舊式酒店的Vintage感覺,仍加入一些時尚感,例如天花上掛著一列球拍,加上美觀的吊燈,便增添了一些活力。既然是Happy Hour,當然要飲杯Cocktail,輕鬆一下吧! VEA的調酒師來頭不少,有曾經在國際賽揚名過的,對創作酒品有一定的執著,亦著重創意。Cocktail類有齊甜、酸、咸、苦幾種口味,我條命咁苦,當然要先吃酸甜後吃苦啦!Cleopatra Formosa酒名有點難記,不緊要,記得這個「金菠蘿」就可以,別緻的菠蘿形狀的杯子,確實是吸引之處。一打開菠蘿蓋,煙霧便瞬間噴出,香氣四射,而味道則帶著菠蘿的清甜和一點青檸酸,酒精以Absolut Elyx,並非很重酒味,適合作用餐前的第一杯酒。甜酒選擇有Peanut Butter Milks

甜酒選擇有Peanut Butter Milkshake,即是花生醬奶昔,外觀很Cutie,似乎主攻女人的心,的而且確,在場女士們都頗為受落,混合了甜酒之主的White Chocolate及Frangelico,飲來像奶昔,有趣,但真的不是我杯茶。

還是喜歡苦酒,這杯Pistachio Martini 才合我意,Absolut Vodka和 Cocchi Americano調和得宜,放入馬天尼杯,再加一粒地中海橄欖,微苦中帶著輕微的酸甜,這就是我的人生吧!

喝酒之餘,也有小吃,幾款食物都以輕巧為主。

位於中上環威靈頓街上的新食廈The Wellington最頂2層的VEA,29樓是VEA Lounge,而30樓是新派法式餐廳VEA。記得當VEA Lounge還在soft opening期間,有一日晚飯後就已經與朋友齊齊來過飲飲cocktail、輕鬆一下。我們都很喜歡當日選的4款雞尾酒和這裡的氣氛呢。這晚下班後又再來到VEA Lounge Happy Hour。Menu上的新派亞洲小食看來吸引,一於選數款小食佐佐雞尾酒吧。各款小食中,我最喜歡就是Parmesan truffle fries, truffle mayo ($68)。一放在枱上就已經聞得到撲鼻的松露香氣。幼條薯條上面鋪了不少parmesan芝士和松露,炸得香脆、不油膩。吃之前再點上濃滑松露蛋黃醬,愛吃香口食物的我不自覺吃完一條又一條。Raw oyster, smoked salmon roe, crispy fish skin, mango relish ($68/1隻)。第一眼看上去已被色彩繽紛的賣相吸引了,由橙紅色、脆卜卜的三文魚籽,淺啡色的鬆脆炸魚皮碎夾著青綠色的蔥花鋪滿在軟滑鹹鮮的生蠔上,味道與食感都層次配搭豐富

自己平日甚少吃波蘿包,見這裡有幾款小食都用迷你菠蘿包配搭,我們就選其中2款吃吃。Warm house baked pineapple bun/chilled caramel butter ($78/2隻),看來是變奏版菠蘿油。包的表面紋像菠蘿包,質感脆脆,有點像在吃炸饅頭。替代牛油的是厚厚的焦糖牛油,甜滑的牛油遇上脆脆菠蘿包,真邪惡~

工人姐姐的風波後,獨個出外用餐的次數少了很多,上週三在中環 VEA Restaurant & Lounge 的一頓,是一週內唯一一次,那也是很難得美好的放鬆時光,因為新店的環境、食物飲品並創意都太棒了,帶來無限驚喜呢~當晚先解決財政公司那邊,然後就趕來這場12月已經約好的輕鬆酒吧局;VEA Restaurant & Lounge 位於中環威靈頓街198號The Wellington,佔地兩層,我們當晚去的是29樓的酒吧。抵達時已是7:40pm,氣氛正熱鬧,加上富心思的裝潢及佈置,心情頓時放鬆下來~我不是酒人,但此情此景下也開放懷抱飲返幾杯!首先是 Sour Cocktails 的 CLEOPATRA FORMOSA,金菠蘿的造型非常搶鏡,Absolut Elyx 酒味不明顯,更突出是新鮮青檸汁及菠蘿的清新微酸味,還有依依的木香,我很愛喝~接著的 Savoury Cocktails SALTED NEGRONI ($140) 就有明顯 Negroni 酒味,加上 Beefeater gin、Campari、Carpano Antica Formula 及鹽花,對我而言太剛烈了,恕未懂欣賞

乾喝酒、那管只是雞尾酒多易醉啊,所以食物也上檯了:先來 Raw oyster, smoked salmon roe, crispy fish skin, mango relish ($58),生蠔帶子位已切、肉質鮮甜 creamy,配搭煙三文魚子、脆魚皮等,口感與滋味非常豐富,個人非常喜歡!

生蠔雖好,薯條更討人愛:接下來的 Parmesan truffle fries, truffle mayo ($68) 以園丁手套、鏟子、麻包袋等,將美味又邪惡的芝士松露薯條以粗野方式呈現,更令人不顧脂肪/熱氣,像個野人般將薯條猛往咀裡塞!至少,我真是這個樣子....!!!

接著這款 Sweet Cocktails PEANUT BUTTER MILKSHAKE ($120) 就非常合我意:成品以透明「牛奶盒」呈上,加上彩色心心及黑白飲管,充滿童趣、玩味十足~

由 white chocolate liqueur 及帶榛子甜香 Frangelico 溝成的雞尾酒香甜柔滑,酒味並不明顯,味道十分可愛,令人情不自禁啜了一口又一口!甜魔定會喜歡這個組合。

繼續有更多的小吃:Iberico pork katsu sandwich, pineapple bun, shaved cabbage ($58) 以迷你蒸籠呈上,顧名思義就是菠蘿包 + 炸黑毛豬腩肉的組合,香脆豐腴、美味而邪惡,正義的我超快就將它徹底消滅了!

Chicken liver mousse, crispy chicken skin, grilled flat bread ($108) 用的雖然是雞肝醬,但效果鮮香滑溜,當配上烤過的麵包,美味效果不輸鵝肝醬呢~

接著這 Sichuan chili red prawn ($138) 紅艷艷的賣相及大量的川椒,突然帶來中式風味;一客有三隻碩大鮮爽的香辣大蝦,吃完蝦身別忘了將蝦頭也找出來,也是非常惹味好吃的哦~

最後是甜點的 Warm house baked pineapple bun, chilled caramel butter ($38),香脆菠蘿包今次配上焦糖牛油,就穿了就是菠蘿油的進化加強版,又是甜魔發揮正義感的時候了!

連抹手小濕巾也有竅妙,貫徹了餐廳出品精緻、創意無限的精神。之後又要趕回家了!雖然逗留時間只得一小時,但感覺美妙放鬆,借食友的說法:這頓比不少正式大餐來得更滿足~

最後也順便參觀了30樓的正式用餐區,據說這裡只做八道菜 Tasting menu ($1,280/位,配雞尾酒另加 $680),定價不便宜,但平日晚上入座率不低,週末更幾乎全爆,魅力可見一斑。

特別一提,可以看到天才廚師 Vicky Cheng 及一眾廚子在食客面前即製食物,是最大吸引位。待工人事件完滿解決後,也想拉老公去吃吃當是慶祝!

Fusion French cuisine, open kitchen surrounded by high chairs. The vibe is casual. It's a good place for a date night or with close friends whom love food. There is a bar downstairs & the Beef Tarta is alright. A little too much dressing but the beef taste good & serve with warm Peter bread.

I've ordered 8 courses set dinner pairing with 7 wine menu. They also offer interesting cocktail pairing which I think I will order next time. Before jumping in the 1st course, 3 interesting snacks: Chicken skin, smoke quail egg & 豉椒炒蜆. I especially like the quail egg, smell so good & juicy inside. The 6 savoury dishes are remarkable. I especially like the Tuna Tarta & the Pigeon. 'Milk Jam' desert is wonderful, it reminds me of the desert I use to have when I was a child but in different ingrenents & present in a smart way.

The overall experience is amazing except they have missed out the birthday desert.

早前與朋友聊起有什麼新餐廳大家都有興趣去,走帶點亞洲風的新派法國菜VEA Restaurant & Lounge榜上有名。剛過去Happy Friday,與朋友飯後想找個地方飲杯野,記起VEA。既然飯局還未約好,這晚就一於與幾位朋友先去VEA的lounge飲杯cocktail吧~ Quinary的雞尾酒向來很得我歡心,真期待調酒師Antonie Lai在VEA這邊有什麼創意搞作。VEA位於中上環威靈頓街上的新食廈The Wellington最頂2層29-30樓。29樓是lounge,而30樓是新派法式餐廳。一出電梯就見到數張梳化及大枱,長長的酒廊一邊是吧枱,另一邊靠牆是高枱。這夜我們杯安排坐在吧枱前,既可與友善的調酒師們聊天,也可近距離觀賞調酒'表演'。Cocktail list上有10款雞尾酒,這晚我們點了其中4款。當中我最喜歡就是賣相搶眼如個金菠蘿的Cleopatra Formosa ($170) cocktail。打開菠蘿蓋,會有煙霧飄出。這杯Cleopatra Formosa由mezcal配鳳梨和青檸等,相當清香refreshing。另一杯我也很喜歡是Blood Wedding

另一杯我也很喜歡是Blood Wedding ($130)。這雞尾酒是就如Bloody Mary的變奏,層次來得更複雜。Vodka加上蕃茄,立山小種茶,Chinese mustard及檸檬、青檸汁,飲起來鹹中帶點酸和微辣,很有趣呢。

朋友點的Pistachio Martini ($150) 和The Wild Strawberry Patch ($120)都相當不錯。這杯Pistachio Martini用開心果infused的vodka為主調,聞起來有陣陣開心果香,飲起來的酒精度是我們這幾款雞尾酒中就強的。而The Wild Strawberry Patch味道清香。如果Pistachio Martini是男孩子的雞尾酒,那這杯就是女孩子的雞尾酒了。
