So, had a business lunch today at Fish & Meat and was keen to share my thoughts1. Food - I enjoyed the Sea-Bream, it was very well cooked and the accompaniments of roasted fennel, roasted tomato and olives really set the dish off. On balance I think HK$187 Inc. service was probably a fair reflextion of dish and was happy to pay it. 2. Drinks - I had decided to go sans booze being a working lunch and thus ordered a lime & soda, not much more to say on that until.......We received the bill. My lim

My lime & soda had (rather imaginatively) been itemised as a mocktail. I find this description more than touch creative for fizzy water and a slice of lime and nearly fell of my chair when I noticed it's equally imaginatively and grand price of HK$88 inc. service!
Seriously people this must be the most expensive lime & soda EVER, ANYWHERE???
I'm all for paying for good food and drink but it really leaves an acid taste (and I don't think that was the lime in my soda) when restaurateurs rip off their patrons in this way.....sure, make a profit guys but this is simply crazy!
On balance, I probably wouldn't eat there again for this reason and wouldn't recommend others doing so unless they are fully hydrated beforehand.
Sort it out Fish & Meat - Stop profiteering
