It's been a while since my last post (two years)~ lol, anyway, here it is~Her Birthday... the initial first choice was Caprice at the Four Seasons, but then it was booked out (Friday night).

Her Birthday... the initial first choice was Caprice at the Four Seasons, but then it was booked out (Friday night). After browsing around, ended up with H One. Before commenting on the food, my first suggestion would be to "hire someone who can speak fluent english to attend the phone",
Food:
Brought us the bread basket~
For the entrée, we had the pama ham - i personally luv parma ham, so dont have much to say. The truffle honey sauce is something new though~
scallop carpaccio - had uni and caviar on top
For the main, she had the slow cooked pork belly while i had the "little boy" 10 oz steak. Do apologize for not having photos for these, those were taken with her phone~Comments: Fine dining~ we couldnt get the window seat~ but then again, the table offered to us allows us to enjoy the harbour view together since we were sitting sideways facing the window instead of only one facing out. Food was superb, dont have to compliment on the taste. Try it for yourself~ bonus mark (+1) for the food being served was warmed
Downside: The young lady attended us couldnt speak fluent cantonese (-1) nor fluent english (-1), she brought us the chalk board with the specials of the day~ ordered the scallop carpaccio from there then after ordering the pork belly~ i asked her:"i prefer steak, what would you recommend?" She pointed at the first line of the first page and said :"this is steak". I responded by saying :"Yes, yet there's also the slow cooked beef cheek and the sirloin. What difference is there?" I seemed to know more about their menu than her... kinda disappointed there. I asked for my steak to be cooked 'rare" came out to be medium rare. They came to apologize and asked if i wanted a replacement, didnt make a big fuss out of it. Just didnt finish it~
Brought our own dessert~ Grand Hyatt - Chocolatier's Strawberry Vanilla Napoleon (not the actualy thing, but something like this)
oh~ almost forgot, we had the USA pinot noir~ decent drop~ free coffee (since the steak was over cooked)last thing, read a few entries and the most of the complains comes from the "water". "Sparkling or Still" is a very common practice at a fine dining restaurent~
p.s. i gave a 5 for value base of the fact that we were at a 25 floor restaurent at tin hau a week ago, bill was 15xx and H One is way better in terms of food quality.
