Overall too heavy handed seasoning.We ordered just a few dishes:- bruschetta with sardines - extremely salty and i was left with a mouthful of oil... Couldnt finish even 2 pieces becuz it was too salty- broccoli with almond and lemon cream -bthe flavor mix was almost right... Except that the lemon cream was... Too salty- orecchiette in pork ragu - the best dish of the night, not too salty, maybe they shld just focus on pasta??- wines - for by-the-glass selections they feature italian natural win
We ordered just a few dishes:
- bruschetta with sardines - extremely salty and i was left with a mouthful of oil... Couldnt finish even 2 pieces becuz it was too salty
- broccoli with almond and lemon cream -bthe flavor mix was almost right... Except that the lemon cream was... Too salty
- orecchiette in pork ragu - the best dish of the night, not too salty, maybe they shld just focus on pasta??
- wines - for by-the-glass selections they feature italian natural wines. Both my red and my companion's white were great, i'd even say outstanding
- dessert - we order the chocolate cremoso (mousse) and guess what... Too salty. The sea salt touch was intentional, but way toooo salty
I sincerely don't understand why so many western restaurants in hong kong like to make things so salty, flavors so pronounced, maybe the ingredients aren't fresh enough? My friend said "they probably want you to order more wine" but if so it's probably the most despicable and silly thing to do, to lower your standard for a quick buck. Me i just think some chefs have damaged taste buds...
