Orange tree is the only Dutch restaurant in town since 1997. It is located in Mid Levels, by the escalator between Caine Road and Mosque Junction. The wooden interior (without air-con) and open kitchen create a warm welcoming atmosphere.

Deep-fried sole fish (5/10)
The sole fish was fresh and greatly seasoned. Deep fried to perfection, the outside was crispy and the inside wasn’t over/under cook at all.
Eel, herrings and shrimp (4/10)The eel and herrings were very nicely smoke and serve cold. The shrimps was mixed with some sauce, the texture was alright, but not use to small shrimp like this, I would prefect a prawn cocktail style shrimp.
Beef Shank (4/10)The beef was very tender; the red wine sauce was very nicely made. Unfortunately, the chips were the not as crispy as diners wanted.
Black mussels in white wine sauce (4/10)A very classic western dish. The mussels were fried with garlic, thyme and white wine. It wasn’t the season of mussels, hence it wasn’t fresh enough. But overall the taste was okay.
Poffertjes (Dutch Coin Size Pancakes) with Vanilla Ice cream (5/10)
The poffertjes were nicely made, it was bouncy with a fragrant egg flavour. The icing sugar gave a bit of sweetness to the pancake and the ice cream was the perfect way to mix it.
To sum up, this restaurant has a comfortable atmosphere, once you sat down, you won’t want to leave. The food has it standard, however the location is rather inconvenient.
Give me a thumbs up if you like it!
