After I knew new Chef Marco work there i decide to go to try the Italian legend in HK. The older Italian restaurant in hk keep in this way from the owner. Something new from the new Chef , everything much much better.
I was there to lunch and we choice: Antipasto prosciutto e melon, Steak, Pasta with Pesto Pizza and " zuppa di Pesce" fish soup as the chef suggest.
Antipasto: High quality of prosciutto with melon and very fresh salad. Melon thinly sliced it was perfect to join the parma ham. What enjoy feeling for the palat. Th e other selection cold cut like salami and speck was in perfect match with the other fruit selection.
Pasta with pesto: It was really perfect interpretation of the pesto sauce with cherry tomato to make everything very good and smooth for the enjoy eating. The pesto was fresh not dry, very well presented and perfect cooked.
Steak: Delicious medium rare (as i asked professional chef never Mistake it!!!). Very good quality of meat, served with multi color cherry tomatoes and fresh rocket salad. What enjoy plate!!!
Zuppa di Pesce: In HK when we talking about soup we think something different. This kind of really traditional Italian dish is kind of mix sea food in tomato sauce. If the Chef do good interpretation this kind of dish its amazing. If you like sea food this is your dishes. Try because is perfect and very delicious dishes where only the mix sea food, like clams, mussel, shrimp and more melted together to make unbelievable dish.
Pizza capricciosa: its average level since the other dishes is very high of the average, you can enjoy eat it.
Very polite and professional floor staff, all in perfect Italian Environment!!! Will back again...
