the wines are very expensive. I have never been to a restaurant that marked up the wine so much. Not even the hotel restaurants like Caprice, Pierre and Robuchon. They have a cigar list with few options and the mark up is also quite scary.The pricing for food is reasonable compared to the wine, but after you try the food, then it becomes expensive relative to its quality.

The pricing for food is reasonable compared to the wine, but after you try the food, then it becomes expensive relative to its quality. After ordering, the waiting time was very long, I understood that they have a large party in the other bunker, but waiting for 25 mins on the appetizer is still unacceptable. I ordered a Chef’s Homemade Pasta for appetizer and my friend ordered the soup of the day which was minestrone. The soup was fine, but pretty standard stuff like Pret or Cafe Habitu. The pasta was actually spaghetti and it didn't look homemade at all. The Pasta was still raw, and I’d say at least 2 more mins of cooking til al dente level. So they’ll have to redo the dish for me. For main course, I ordered the prime rib eye steak (medium rare) and my friend had the coffee bean roast rack of lamb (medium). 1st of all, my steak was medium, not medium rare. I don't know where the beef is from but it tasted like HK local stuff. I was surprise the steak wasn't grilled, it was actually pan fried. Quality is similar to King of Steak. The lamb was rare when we asked for medium, so they’ll have to grill it for longer. Taste was ok.
A bottle of pelagrino was $88…
