CHINO has definitely been creating a lot of buzz. Its one of the buzziest new eateries to have opened up in Kennedy Town. There is a no reservation policy, so get there early- because it does fill up quick. The concept of CHINO is clean, fun and chill.

I started off with a fruity cocktail recommended by the bartenders. There's bar seats for dining as well as drinking.

We started off with the market fish ceviche $168. It was marinated in a refreshing lime, yuzu sauce that made this oh so goooood. Only problem was the price for what you get.

scallop and uni tostada

Scallop and uni tostada ($88). Sweet uni and fresh raw scallop sit beautifully on top of a crunchy toasted tortilla chip. Its beautiful. We ended up ordering another batch.

Mushroom, Mizuna and burnt Jalapeño

Mushroom, Mizuna and burnt Jalapeño $128 dish. I LOVED this. It was absolutely packed with so much flavours, textures and taste.

This was the pork soft taco, I remember thinking it was just okay compared with all the other goodies.

Crispy Fish, Chipotle Kewpie, Salsa Fresca Tacos HK$48 which actually is US$6.20!!! OMG.....I didn't realize the price difference until a friend told me, I eat a lot out and if I think how much it was until I converted it. MY GOSH. This was pretty good though. The fish itself could have used some more seasoning, but I loved the crispy outer shell!

Clams, Aji Amarillo, Crispy Shallots

Clams, Aji Amarillo, Crispy Shallots HK$148. I'm a big fan of clams and these were delicious. The clams were plump and fresh. The clam broth was sharp, savoury and slurp-worthy! I was practically gulping down the entire bowl.

Chicken, mini Egg Tostada

Chicken, mini Egg Tostada $58 HKD That chicken egg tostada was delicious! It had chicken tinga, creamy guacamole, topped with a fried mini egg all over a crispy, crunchy chip!
