My friend said there is a restaurant & bar which called ''Amour garden grill & bar''locating in MK which has a spacious terrace with nice vibe.It provides liquors,food,snacks but also shisha.I decided to go with my friend and give it a try. The restaurant & bar located on the 4th floor of a commerical buliding in Portland street,MK.Its like a oasis hidden in the bustling and hustling Mong kok destrict which gives you a relaxing ambience differ from the surrounding enviroments. As we arrived here around 7:30 p.m.,both of us ordered the dinner set plus a snack platter to share with each other. All dinner sets include a salad,a soup,main course and a drink(those cost HK$25). We ordered black truffle cheese mushrooms stuffed spring chicken and bass risotto.Both of us added few dollars to upgrade to stawberry milkshake and latte.
Black truffle cheese mushrooms stuffed spring chicken
黑松露芝士汁雜菌釀春雞
(HKD$178) The spring chicken is quite tender as you can see the chef carefully controlled the cooking time to ensure the spring chicken just cooked rather than overdone.There is gravy split out the chicken so it is quite moist and juicy.The mushrooms stuffed inside absorb all the essences of chicken,cheese and truffle which makes the mushrooms very flavourful.
However,I prefer the classic herb ones(seasoned by Rosemary,thyme) over the black truffle cheese sauce ones.
Bass risotto
香烤鱸魚燴意大利飯
(HKD$128) The bass is perfectly seared with crispy skin and moist flesh.Large portion for the risotto which can be shared by two people.However,the risotto is flat and bland.I suggest add some black pepper to give a kick to it.
Snack platter
小食拼盤
(HKD$168) There are deep fried chicken wings,onion rings,tortillas,mozzarella sticks and sweet potato chips.All the deep fried goodies are superrrrrrr crunchy,crisp and not oily at all.
The wings are juicy and tender.
There are gooey cheese and spring onion inside the tortillas which veryyyy tasty.
The melty,stringy cheese elongated from the little devil stick as you pull it apart with two hands.Yummmmm!
The sweet potato chips is soooooooo sweet but a bit soggy and not very crispy.
Strawberry milkshake
草莓奶昔
(HKD$46) The milkshake is not too sweet with a bit of tartness.The seeds of the strawberry give some bites to the milkshake.
Sesame sauce Salad
芝麻醬沙拉 The salad is delectable as the sesame dressing gives the richness and the distinctive aroma to it .The cabbages are crunchy and fresh.
Black truffle cream soup
黑松露忌廉湯 Although the soup has strong unique scent of black truffle,its quite salty which discount the overall tastiness.
There are shisha costing only HK$150 which much cheaper than the bars in central costing HKD$3XX~$4XX.The shisha stands here are quite special which are in Eiffel tower appearances that differ from the tradintional ones. The terrace is very spacious and the enviroment is quite nice which not very common in many MK bars.There are palm trees and Thai style outdoor furnitures.Its enjoyable and relaxing to have drinks and chatting out here. I definitely will come to here to have drinks or smoking shisha in this nice terrace.The food here are acceptable.However,this restaurant served tables very slowly.I have to wait about 30 mins before the first dish is served!
Nevertheless,both waiters and waitress have good attitudes,but many of them are quite clumsy.One of the waitress even unintenionally drops my mobile on the table to the floor!!
I thought the kitchen should speed up to shorten the cooking time.The restaurant can provide more F&B trainings to their staffs to improve the services.
