Sunday brunch, how I love thee. Even if I have to work on Sunday, I try to have brunch even if it is by myself. And on this day, I did have brunch on my own as I was on my way to work.Plat du Jour is something I wanted to try so I decided to choose this as my brunch spot. They have two locations: Quarry Bay and Admiralty. The Admiralty branch is located inside Pacific Place and that is where I found myself.When sitting down, I was presented with a regular menu.

Plat du Jour is something I wanted to try so I decided to choose this as my brunch spot. They have two locations: Quarry Bay and Admiralty. The Admiralty branch is located inside Pacific Place and that is where I found myself.
When sitting down, I was presented with a regular menu. The brunch menu that was placed on a place card on the table. For $165, you get a choice of soup or salad, one brunch main and a coffee or tea.
A bread basket is provided. Bread was fairly good.
I chose a latte and this was served with a biscotti. Unfortunately, the latte was pretty bad. It tasted burnt.
I chose a tomato et pistou. This was a tomato basil soup and tasted quite good. Rich, tomato flavor. It came with a slice of flatbread with slices of tomato on top.
My brunch main was an eggs Florentine. This was served with a small jug of grapefruit Hollandaise. The poached eggs were poached perfectly. They were laid on top of a bed of spinach and toasted English muffins. The Hollandaise was desribed as grapefruit so was a bit more tart than usual. It was ok but I think I would have wanted a more creamier texture.
The food was ok. Nothing exceptional about it. I wasn't a big fan of the Hollandaise and wished they stuck to the classic version. Latte was horrid and was clearly not expected. Service was lovely though with a thoughtful checking in from the staff. But food was a bit disappointing so would probably not return.
