Managed to get a table last minute at Asaya Kitchen, located on the 6th floor of Rosewood Hong Kong. The restaurant places a lot of emphasis on health and sustainability, with the menu featuring sustainably sourced seafood and local produce to create dishes with Mediterranean flavours.

— Toothfish is probably one of my favourite types of cooked fish to have, so this was a definite must order when I saw it on the menu! I was super impressed with this, as everything from taste to presentation was outstanding. The toothfish was pan seared to perfection leaving the flesh to be tender and juicy. The fillet itself has a very high fat content and had a very buttery texture. I loved all the flavours in this dish, health conscious but so delicious. I particularly enjoyed the tomato crust on the fish which gave it a unique taste and aroma, and paired with the zucchini mint cream, the dish became a lot lighter and easy to eat.
Pic 2️⃣: King Crab - Strozzapreti / Yellow Tomatoes / Zucchini, Bottarga Emulsion - $308 hkd 🦀 🍝
— A real taste of the sea. The flavours in this were incredibly rich and fresh. The pasta is cooked in a strong lobster and crab sauce which I found slightly too salty for my liking. There was a decent amount of king crab in this that was well seasoned and cooked perfectly. I loved that the vegetables still had a slight crunch to them to create contrasting textures. Loved the grated lemon zest on top that really helped bring our the taste of the seafood!
Pic 3️⃣: Focaccia Bun - Cantabrian Anchovies “Nardin” / Seaweed Olive Oil Spread 🌿
— Focaccia was super tasty! Golden-brown all over and soft on the inside. The seaweed olive oil spread was so unique, a slight earthy taste to it that complemented the herb flavour in the focaccia. This was a great way to start off the meal!
📍Ambiance: restaurant is bright & spacious, the outside sitting area is perfect for cooler temperatures, staff are friendly and professional.
⭐️Would visit again?: Yes! Would love to try out their weekend brunch
