There are just too many restaurants in Causeway bay and this time come across "Onion". After arriving the 19/F, numerous of artworks hesitated me from stepping out of the lift as I thought I went to the wrong floor. Glimpsed the restaurant name in between the crayon paintings and proceeded into the restaurant. Already filled with Christmas atmosphere, I realised that we where the only guests that night!~Served with basket of bread while ordering, we also ordered their promotion plum whiskey. Loo

Served with basket of bread while ordering, we also ordered their promotion plum whiskey. Looking through the menu, you will realise that this restaurant serve multi-country iconic dishes and provide exquisite fusion dinning experience.

Appetizer and soup

The onion soup has intense caramelised onion under rich broth. The texture does simmer and not too watery. Onions are well caramelised and soft. However, I would still prefer onion soup with a french toast or a crouton topped with melted cheese.

The salad is mixed leaf with parma ham and paired nicely with the plum whiskey.
Appetizer 2: scallop with crispy parma ham

Nicely decor dish. The Scallop is slightly seared, enriching the seafood oil flavour. Scallop itself is ok but enhanced by the slightly salted crispy parma ham. The balsamic sauce also added a bit of attitude to this dish.
Main: Iberico pork

This is the winner of the week! We ordered the 8oz medium Iberico and the moment it arrives, the charcoal scent blossomed on the table. The amazing tender texture on top of the intense carbonized wood flavour is astonishing. The sauce has lingering sweetness with hint of wine, although matched very well with the pork, I still prefer the original juiciness from the pork. Caramelized apple and veggies were ok.
Main 2: Roasted baby back rib

Compared to the previous Iberico pork, this baby back rib is relatively suboptimal. Although the texture is somewhat tender, I still do have high expectations as baby rib. BBQ is adequate, but would be more mouth watering if there were more sauce. The whole experience would be more dynamic if the "main 1" and "main 2" switched as the Iberico pork is defo rated higher compare to this baby back rib.
Dessert

On the right, it is the meringue cookie with fruit sauce. The sweetness of the hand-whipped meringue cookie created a good contrast with the relative sour fruit sauce. Balance would be disrupted if either of the ingradient is gone. Moving to the middle, there are several selections of fruit as you can see. Beside providing one of the "5 portion a day", the fruit will also rinse your palate before moving on your dessert pathway. On the right, it is the France chocolate. Without adding flour that you usually do for brownie, the pure chocolate fudge has intense cocoa flavour. The firm body with glutinous texture, kind of spreading the chocolate butter all round your palate to wake your taste bud.
While enjoying the dessert, we realise that there are crayons on the table! Inspired by the nice dessert, we also draw something on the table~

Oooohhhh~~ now I realise why there're so many artworks outside the lift! They were not from drawing classes~ they were all customers drawing!! On question, it seems like the restaurant is no long continuing the business in the same location due to short notice, although their takeaway or order service is still functioning. So do grab the time to eat in this restaurant while you can and I hope we can see you again in the short future. Maybe let's enjoy some good art gallery before it is too late.
