This was a dinner date, and I must say The Principal is a lovely restaurant for a date. We had the tasting menu at HKD650 (extra for wagyu beef) and wine pairing HKD 500. Dinner starts with complimentary hors d'eovres including a quail egg served with a slightly sweet crispy coating served on a almost birds next looking box combines modern chic with child like fantasy, along with other treats.

First course was a chawanmushi like steam egg with uni, cavier paired with a fine cold sake. Perfect match of seafood with the delicate sake, contrast of the hot & cold.2nd course was a fresh crab meat ravioli matched with white wine. Was OK. The third course was heavenly with a foie gras in consomme, which was extremely well done. In the past, I only had foie gras in pate or pan fried and whilst they tasted nice, they were heavy at the same time. This version was delightly light and tasty as well. Cod fish and wagyu beef followed . Beef was yummy. After a sorbet, a chocolaty dessert was served. However my favourite sweet of the night was not the dessert but the lime stone candy served as psrt of the petit fours. I loved them so much I had to ask for extras.
All in all, a beautiful evening, nice ambience, good food and excellent service. Yes it is a bit pricey but worth for special occassions
