Reviewing this place feels like a chore. I'm not fancy enough to care about big name chefs and wacky architecture. Other people already did all the spadework in the previous reviews. So I'll be terse, but that in itself should not be understood as negativity.I was standing on my head when I took this picture. I really liked the seafood bruschetta. From left-to-right, er, um, right-to-left, we have: smoked salmon, crab, and mystery fish. The mystery fish was delicious, I really would eat that pie
I was standing on my head when I took this picture. I really liked the seafood bruschetta. From left-to-right, er, um, right-to-left, we have: smoked salmon, crab, and mystery fish. The mystery fish was delicious, I really would eat that piece of fish on that toast once a day every day. I liked the other things too. Great, A-
According to the restaurant's website, the motto is "fresh, light, and modern." I'll give 'em fresh, and I'll give 'em modern, but do ask your doctor whether you can indulge in the pasta. It's rather good for a pasta carbonara, but sorry, I'm not originally from HK and I'm thus not the hugest carbonara fan. Neither are my arteries. Good. B
I couldn't find the sausage in this dish, though supposedly it was in there. Can sausage melt? My wife and I are "trying" to eat healthier (yes, those are scare-quotes and not greengrocer's quotes), but somehow we always order the pigfat. The stuff here was better than the pigfat at Blue Butcher, but not as good as the pigfat at ABC Kitchen. Still, pigfat: B+At the end of the meal I realized that there were no vegetables. And that I should either give up pigfat or cheesy-buttery-egg-sauce or smoking. Probably all of them.
Other Info. :
The tiny bar seats they cram you into when you don't call a week in advance are surprisingly comfortable, though not suited for someone with long legs, or a sizable posterior.
