As per always, PICI always has a crowd. We came as a group of three and had to grab a drink up the street while we waited for their call. Upon seating, we ordered the tasting menu and picked three appetizers, 4 pastas and 3 desserts for $280 per head plus a carafe of wine. The standouts for me would be the burrata and mussels pasta dish. The average include the beef tartare and the truffle pasta.

Upon seating, we ordered the tasting menu and picked three appetizers, 4 pastas and 3 desserts for $280 per head plus a carafe of wine.
The standouts for me would be the burrata and mussels pasta dish. The average include the beef tartare and the truffle pasta. I’ve never had slices of button mushrooms on my beef tartare and I just didn’t think it was a good taste profile match at all. It needed something oily to pair them up better in my opinion. As for the truffle pasta, the truffle itself is definitely shaved. However, as you would expect at this price range, it’s a bottom tier truffle probably imported from China or Australia. The flavour profile was definitely lacking.
That said, I love the ambience and their dedication to making fresh pasta. I wish more restaurants can dish out solid dishes at affordable prices here in HK! I’d definitely come back with friends.
