It was rare for Peruvian food to be found in HK a few years ago. There were only one or two then but they didn't last long.Luckily they are getting popular these days and people are starting to know what Peruvian food is.Here they serve Nikkei cuisine which brings together Japanese and Peruvian.If you like Japanese, refeshing lemon and limes, cumin and strong flavours, this is for you.Had some cocktails at the bar as we were early.Started with the Earl Grey lemonade which was a mix of strawberry
Luckily they are getting popular these days and people are starting to know what Peruvian food is.
Here they serve Nikkei cuisine which brings together Japanese and Peruvian.
If you like Japanese, refeshing lemon and limes, cumin and strong flavours, this is for you.
Had some cocktails at the bar as we were early.
Started with the Earl Grey lemonade which was a mix of strawberry, lychee juice, earl grey syrup and rose lemonade.
It tasted more refreshing than sweet with a good fizz.
I had the coco loco water which was very sweet and hydrating mixed with lemon juice and lavender syrup.
+++La Causa:
This was comfort food for me in terms of appearance and taste because the prawn tempura is exactly the same as the prawn balls served in Chinese takeaways!!Beneath the prawn was a bed of tangy beetroot mash and prawn tartar.
+++
H&M:
I always shop at H&M so this caught my eye. It is actually a plate of Hamachi and Maguro carpaccio in tangy shoyu citrus dressing topped with spices. +++
octopus sticks:
I loved the octopus skewers because it was paired with black olive tapenade, carrot puree and capers.A mix of strong flavours.
+++
Picanha sticks:
This was juicy pieces of rump steak with edamame puree and pickled cucumber.It was a bit like having steak and peas.
+++
tacu tacu:
This is a Peruvian rice legume pancake topped with stir fried vegetables in a Chimichurri sauce.It was a wonderful dish because it was very similar to Nepalese chatamari and the texture is a bit like super thick rice porridge that has been pan fried.
+++
We finished with dessert to round up such a delicious meal.
Had the green tea tiramisu which was really good because I liked the firmness of the matcha cake and the fluffy mascarpone cream.
+++The calamansi meringue was a lemon meringue with a modern twist because they used calamansi which is not so tart.
