A.O.C. (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) is a newly opneed cozy French restaurant and bar in Wan Chai, after the success at Winebeast and Le Bistro Winebeast. The space has a long bar table with seats while some window side tables are also available for customers. An extensive wine list with lots of wine by the glass at retail price (starting at $38), beers and cocktails, in a much laid back atmosphere, day through night with special offers for Happy Hour. Nothing's wrong with a cup of warm mull
The restaurant offers a few special options for a very affordable price, while weekend brunch and lunch sets are also available for under $300 each.
A crumbly puff pastry wrapped around a mixed meat pate with a piece of foie gras in between, with a sweet glaze sauce to ease down the greasiness from the foie gras. The flavour of this en croute is perfectly balanced. Delicate yet not too overly indulging.
One of the signature dishes from chef as they house smoke the Mackerel in a smoke box using wood. The fish meat is then mixed wiht some herbs and pepperika, giving a really smokey taste that goes well with the crisp bread.
The duck confit has been baked until very crispy on the skin. The new potatoes and mixed fruit, apple, pear, and prune at the bottom at the bottom have also been cooked until very softened and they absorbed all the juice from the duck confit.
Instead of sweet desserts, you may opt for a plate of mixed cheese so that you can have a few more glasses of wine with your friends and families.
