📍Rex Wine & GrillWas pleasantly surprised when I first visited Rex Wine & Grill so we came back especially for their beef wellington. It needs pre-ordering (without the need to pay deposit). The monster creation is just as it describes as “ultimate &luxurious”. They actually carved out the middle and stuffed Fois Gras pâte in it. The mushroom layer is mixed with black truffle. Finally a very buttery layer of puff pastry. Chef Nathan Green would cut the beef wellington table side. You can see tha

luxurious”. They actually carved out the middle and stuffed Fois Gras pâte in it. The mushroom layer is mixed with black truffle. Finally a very buttery layer of puff pastry.
Chef Nathan Green would cut the beef wellington table side. You can see that the portion is as huge as a tree trunk. There is no question about the quality of the ingredients but it is way too rich for me, the fois gras pâté is a bit much. Seasoning is also a a bit overpowering so you can’t really taste the beef. The puff pastry was good but could be more flakey. Overall, I would go back to their steak/burger instead.
The triple cooked chips are the best. Even when you eat it hours later, it’s still crunchy on the outside!
Dessert is very disappointing. Bring back the pistachio ice cream please 🥲
Price: HK$1000-1500 pp
Revisit: 8/10 (Will come back for the triple cooked chips)
