Located at the top floor of hotel LKF, Azure does has a good view of its surrounding skyscrapers, and a teeny weeny bit of the Victoria harbour. The restaurant has a modern and comtemperary design, and has cushions on sofa seats, which provides a comfy dining experience.SoupThought it would be refreshing to order a chilled soup in this hot summer.

SoupThought it would be refreshing to order a chilled soup in this hot summer. Although it did cool me down, this chilled watermelon soup turned out to be a huge disappointment as this is nothing but a bowl of watermelon juice with a dollop of sour cream and a mint leaf as garnish.
MainThe portion of the salad was really tiny and the vegetables are not fresh. The same goes with the burger; the area of the bun was approximately the size of my fist. However, the beef patty was thick and juicy, and together with the tomato, lettuce and onions, the burger was turns out to be a decent one. One’s belly would only be half filled at this point, so thick fries with chilli seasonings provides with sufficient amount of starch and calories to fill you up. The Cajun fries were well-flavoured, but I was too chicken finish the whole portion of oil/fat bomb.
DessertThe passion fruit sorbet was a delightful dessert with the sweet tangy flavour of the tropical fruit. Underneath was a bed of chopped ripened mangoes and the rich caramel pudding. The caramel pudding was rich and creamy as I can taste the rich milkfat in every spoonful of the pudding. To be honest, the sorbet and mango didn’t really go with the caramel pudding, but when eaten separately, this dessert is a truly enjoyable and satisfying one.
The meal actually included petit fours, which is a chocolate macaron and a piece of dark chocolate. Both are extremely sweet and below standard, hence I did not bother to take pictures. The coffee was also tasteless, despite the addition of milk.
Overall, for $248, I'd really go for quality rather than quantity. And this restaurant definitely goes for the latter.
