My friend and I wanted to avoid Central for dinner as there was an outbreak with fitness centers and expats, so we came to my neighborhood to a hip yet relatively quiet place to catch up and try new fusion food. This little restaurant was very cozy and modern with contemporary art on the wall to portray the eating style of HK people, if you looked closely. The owner greeted us warmly with her big smile and was very friendly. Always happy to support a fellow woman.🙌🏻To start, we ordered 2 glasses

My friend and I wanted to avoid Central for dinner as there was an outbreak with fitness centers and expats, so we came to my neighborhood to a hip yet relatively quiet place to catch up and try new fusion food. This little restaurant was very cozy and modern with contemporary art on the wall to portray the eating style of HK people, if you looked closely. The owner greeted us warmly with her big smile and was very friendly. Always happy to support a fellow woman.🙌🏻

To start, we ordered 2 glasses of red wine🍷. Followed by some appetizers. 

Shrimp Toast with house pickled onions, salmon roe and mint (HK$ 148) 🦐 was OK but a little hard to eat with a big pile of salmon roe on top falling at every bite. Could have used more seasoning.

 Spicy Creamy Local Clams with black bean chive oil (HK$178) had a very delicious creamy sauce! 
We loved the sauce so much that we ordered Homemade Sourdough (HK$48) to dip in the sauce and clean the plate!

 Beef Tartare Yu Kwan Yick XO sauce (HK$ 188) was a delightful surprise with a spicy kick to it. Very unique! 
We finished it very quickly to the last bite. Highly recommend it!

 For mains, we shared the Signature Roasted French Spring Chicken, Glutinous Rice Stuffing (HK$388) 🐔🍚which was their selling dish. Re-inventing a Chinese classical dish with French cooking.  It was a big pot of chicken and rice.

 For desserts, we had Dark Chocolate Tart, Salted Caramelised Almonds (HK$68)🍫 and Ginger Creme Brulee (HK$68)🍮. We preferred the creme brulee as it was very flavorful and much lighter than the tart.
Tart was very rich and heavy but would be perfect for chocolate lovers.

Dinner for 2 people (with 2 glasses of wine) was : HK$ 1372

Overall, we had a marvelous evening. Food was mostly delicious, particularly the beef tartare with a twist of Hong Kong flavors. 
However, their pricing was on the high side for what it was. Little bit expensive. Small portions, except for the pot of chicken rice. Can try once!
