Walked past this restaurant 2 weeks ago and saw "TRES LECHES" on their menu and it instantly caught my attention, so I went to Al Sur to have lunch last week and had dinner here with my family again tonight.

We ordered 3 starters, including choripan, salmon anticucho, and chicken arepas. Choripan was great. I love the chorizo inside the bun with the sauce. Salmon anticucho was delicious too. The salmon meat was juicy and soft. I loved the chicken arepas because the corn taste in the bread reminds me of my favourite tacos.
For main, we ordered costillas, Argentinian rib eye and pollo al espiedo. The portions are bigger than I expected. The costillas and grilled chicken are good. My favourite is the Argentinian rib eye though. We ordered medium rare for the rib eye so the meat was quite raw and very soft, which I like the texture.
Finally the (my) highlight of the dinner was the desserts. The chocolate cake was SO GOOD and SO BIG. I love dark chocolate and I love how it's not overly sweet. TRES LECHES was amazing (the reason why this restaurant caught my eye in the first place). There's some ice cream on top of the cake, which the cake is soaked in 3 different kinds of milk. It's very difficult to find tres leches cake in Hong Kong so I'm so glad to have discovered Al Sur, especially when their tres leches is only $60. Even my father, who is generally picky with food, enjoyed our dinner at Al Sur. We had 4 people, ordered 4 starters, 3 mains, 3 drinks, and 2 desserts and it costs only around $1300. Their lunch sets are even more affordable, 2 courses only cost $108 and 3 courses at $148. I will definitely come again for their food.
