Well, a friend and I were walkin' around in Shatin, and we were thinkin' about either go to Tutto or Shakey's Pizza as he wanna have pasta. Since the restaurant has the name of "Habitu", we decided to go for this restaurant.The decor is in a simplistic approach, light colour but it easily shows the dirtiness of the restaurant. You can easily see dusts and dirt on table edges etc. They really should pay attention to details when they do the dustin' and cleanin' stuff.The followings were what w
The decor is in a simplistic approach, light colour but it easily shows the dirtiness of the restaurant. You can easily see dusts and dirt on table edges etc. They really should pay attention to details when they do the dustin' and cleanin' stuff.
The followings were what we ordered:
1. Spinach salad in black truffle sauce
2. Penne sausage
3. Swordfish fillet
4. House white wine
5. La Bene (cocktail)
The salad was fresh while not enough sauce at all, and it rendered the salad tasteless. We were like rabbit and eatin' the leaves... lol
The penne was okay, according to my friend. It was creamy and the penne wasn't overcooked. I only tried the sausage and it was okay though.
The swordfish fillet looked alrite but it tasted awful. There was no flavor at all, and the fish wasn't fresh at all. It tasted like those frozen stuff at Park 'n Shop and that's just not rite. The grilled veggie wasn't cooked for a long enough time, and a minutes or two more on the grill would make it perfect. Well, they'd probably pre-grilled everything as they ain't hot.
The funny thing was that waiter at an Italian restaurant didn't know what olive oil was..... I was speechless at that moment and my friend just couldn't help but laughing. They also served the wine and cocktail in the middle of our main dishes, so it was like 30-40 mins after we had ordered. What took them so long to pour my glass of wine??? Anyway, they didn't have a license to sell wine, so what they were doing was illegal anyway. They told us they usually sold to their regular patrons only as the licence was expired. EXPIRED?? They opened for like less than a year, how would that be possible?
