First point of note is the vacuum wine machine allowing you to sample many wines by the glass.
We are seated at a large table by the window with a not very inspiring view directly into the 24 hour McDonalds.
We share the crab cakes($98) as a starter and very good they were, more crab than filler and fresh taste.
Then came the big surprise on the menu, an oxtail and kidney pudding($195). I have never seen a pudding before in HK, and with happy memories of steak and kidney puddings back in the UK, I had to try this. This was one hugely calorific and heavy dish, just the way it should be! A decent suet crust encased a rich oxtail and kidney filling, no side dishes are needed. Some with lesser appetites may find this enough for two sharing.
The other main was fish and chips ($180, a little on the steep side) which was a generous portion of crispy battered fish with a huge pile of thin cut chips that defeated my partner.
With a glass of white($50) and two glasses of red ($136) the bill was $756 which is just ok value considering it’s location.
