The new kid on the block of steakhouses in Hong Kong, you have to try it.The pretentiousness is a tad overpowering, the maitre-d - wine waiter - meat displayer etc etc. . all a tad poncy and too much, but hey at 4k for 3 people for lunch (no desserts), you sort of expect a bit of razzamatazz.So, 3 of us, 2 bottles of red, 2 starters, a steak taster plate, spinach and chips.4k. . Yes it's toppy, but the rent they must be paying probably accounts for 25% of every bill!The starters were good, not q

4k. . Yes it's toppy, but the rent they must be paying probably accounts for 25% of every bill!
The starters were good, not quite very good, but good (chorizo and empanadas at La Pampa are better IMHO but they were still good here, even if one tiny chorizo seemed way insufficient).
Spinach and chips obviouisly played second fiddle to the main attraction, the Steak Taster plate. . 4 steaks, very well cooked, and more than enough for 3 strapping lads to finish.
Yes excellent steaks, but at 4k for 3 (sorry i keep saying it!), they had to be.
The whole experience was very good for a friday lunchtime, although i found the girls working there to be a little bit tartily dressed for a restaurant . . The girls breasts were almost falling out of her dress as she showed off the cuts of meat. . Little bit of a daft gimmick, if thats what it was supposed to be.
Anyhow, a solid 7.5/10 from me, special occassions, yes. .
