We booked this restaurant becos of the memory of a restaurant with the same name at the nearby area some 15 years ago. The restaurant has clearly been sold since and moved to another location.First of all, the food. It's rather average, altho the Farmhouse bread was nice & soft. We ordered a few mixed BBQ and the meat quality was not brilliant. Salad was no different to Fat Angelo's giant salad. Secondly, the setting.

We booked this restaurant becos of the memory of a restaurant with the same name at the nearby area some 15 years ago. The restaurant has clearly been sold since and moved to another location.
First of all, the food. It's rather average, altho the Farmhouse bread was nice & soft. We ordered a few mixed BBQ and the meat quality was not brilliant. Salad was no different to Fat Angelo's giant salad.
Secondly, the setting. It's right on the beach and Cheung Sha Beach is simply gorgeous esp by HK standards.
Thirdly, the service. There was NOT a single waiter/ waitress you would consider friendly. They are all very indifferent and stressed out. The Manager (Brenda I think her name was) was scary. She looks like a school principal who was unfriendly and rude to customers. My friend tried to order some free water, she just looked at her blank like she just escaped from a mental institute. The other waitresses are also blunt but not as bad as Brenda. We gave them $1 tip and the waitress said "1 dollar tip, that's it?". What do they expect? We believe in giving a nice tip to those who deserve it. Got the message?
By the way, my friend who ordered the water is blonde - so they are not racist at all. They are simply terrible to everyone!!

It will be another 15 years before we visit Stoep again, that is if they are still around!
