Specially booked this restaurant for Valentine's Day 🌹 as I've always wanted to try this place. Immaculate, refined and elegant, this place gave a simple romantic atmosphere even in the afternoon.Hidden inside a new commercial building, the restaurant was very spacious with wine cellar and multiple private rooms.Once we were seated, I already found a rose prepared on our table from the restaurant and was offered a complimentary glass of champagne 🥂We enjoyed the preset 5-course Menu Degustation

We enjoyed the preset 5-course Menu Degustation (HK$1,280 p.p.) with added Wine-pairing of sommelier's selection (HK$ 880 p.p.) for my partner.
Our lunch began with Amuse Bouche - Ikura with Steamed Egg Custard. Then followed by the first course of Polmard Beef with Caviar. It looked absolutely stunning with edible flower arrangements Dungeness Crab Au Gratin was next and it was very cheesy and huge in portions! Quite thick and heavy, I had to pass it to my partner as I could not finish it. He enjoyed every bite!
Came after was the Brittany scallop with risotto and artichoke. It was very refreshing and flavorful. My favorite dish of the meal!
The main course for me was Chicken Seaweed Roll with Foie Gras and Lentils. The meat was very dry I did not finish this dish. My partner had the Duck leg confit with a big fat piece of Foie Gras, which he thought was good.
Our last course was the Valentine's Day dessert of Rhurbard with yogurt and dill, which was so-so. A bit tasteless. I would have enjoyed a gateau or crème brulee much more.

Lunch for 2 people (Menu Degustation with 1 Wine-pairing) was: HK$ 3,883
Overall, I thought our lunch was OK. The place and food were much prettier than the taste. Maybe I'm not a fan of French cuisine, so a lot of the ingredients I don't eat such as foie gras, cheese, beef tartare and duck confit. The price was fair for lunch at a fine-dining restaurant on a special occasion. Much cheaper than their dinner set already. However, with so many more options at this price range, I won't revisit anytime soon.
