While I often visited Island ShangriLa because it was so close to my workplace, it was my first time to visit Kowloon ShangriLa. It had exactly the same odour everywhere as Island ShangriLa and the hotel was also very elegantly decorated.When we were looking for the best restaurant for our first attempt at Kowloon ShangriLa, Angelini seemed to be the most romantic one.

When we were looking for the best restaurant for our first attempt at Kowloon ShangriLa, Angelini seemed to be the most romantic one. It was located on M floor of the hotel.
We booked earlier in advance and managed to get hold of supposedly the table with the best view as it was the table located in the middle of the big glass windows of the restaurant, overlooking Hong Kong Island. It was such a bright day with very blue sky and lots of sunshine!
Angelini served semi-buffet for lunch on weekdays with selection of appetisers and salads from the buffet and daily soup, with a choice of main course and dessert at a price $328 +10%. You can pick "better" mains for an additional $100+10%. Small pastries with tea and coffee were included in this price. However, the servers seemed to have missed the small pastries and it seemed that they didn't serve them to other guests either by the time we left.

There were so much to eat that unfortunately we didn't have room to try their bread. The bread in the bread basket was warm when served.

The daily soup was mushroom. It was served really hot, which was really appreciated. I finished it with my choice of a super long sesame thin cracker from the appetiser and salad buffet table.
Then here you go our choices of mains. We heard that pasta here were particularly outstanding so both of us went for the pasta despite our expected full stomach after the appetiser and salad buffet.

This pasta was really exceptionally good. The texture of the pasta was perfectly al dente. I hadn't had such great pasta in such a long long time, even at those supposedly good Italian restaurants. The Amatriciana sauce was just right, of the perfect flavour and appropriate amount. The only complaint was that the pork cheek was too minced and the portion seemed to be too small.

To the contrary, the risotto was very disappointing. The risotto was not al dente enough. I found them too soft, although they were already more chewy than normal Chinese rice. The sauce of the risotto was also not tasty enough, a bit too plain. The amount of seafood was more generous but the texture of the shrimps was quite a failure as they didn't seem to be fresh enough.

The portion of this chocolate cake was so big again! The chocolate cake was pretty thick, although there could have been more layers (maybe I am asking too much given that it is not a top-tiered restaurant in town). It went well with the plentiful berry sauce to balance the sweetness of chocolate as well as the dryness of the chocolate cake.

Although we were so full by that time, we still wanted to try their chocolate drinks. We ordered iced chocolate with skimmed milk. So it was not as sweet, yet of the right degree of sweetness to end the meal. The only complaint was there were too many ices and we had to wait so long for the drinks.

Overall, I would say that the food offered a very good value for money given the price and location. However, service could have been much better as it was a restaurant in an international branding hotel after all. The restaurant was not full and the servers seemed so busy to refill our water (even after our reminders), not to mention taking photos for us. We asked one server to take a picture for us but he wore no smile on his face and just quickly walked away after taking 3 photos for us without counting. And don't forget the missing small pastries as stated on the menu which I mentioned earlier. It was quite disappointing indeed. Having said that, the manager of the restaurant was much more polite and made us feel more welcomed than creating trouble. Overall, I would still give a smiley for the dining experience.
