你的生日 =)
2011-07-18 495 浏览
自從上年10月開始, 已經沒有再在OP寫食評了。當中原因, 當然是因為沒有了陪我周圍搵好野食的那個他。離離合合, 原以為沒有機會跟他慶祝今年的生日, 但世事總是那麼奇妙吧。我們還是有機會一起吃生日飯了。 找了好幾個地方, 主要是想找一個輕鬆、靜靜的地方, 最後就找到Chesa了。從沒踏足過半島, 但各食家都說這裡沒有高級酒店那種令人拘束的感覺, 食物和氣氛也是超讚的。所以個多星期前就致電預約了。因為我打算自己帶生日蛋糕, 侍應於訂檯時細心提醒$50/位的切餅費, 不過如果不在餐廳吹蠟燭及進食就不用收切餅費。 訂了7點半, 自己早了半小時到, 先把蛋糕放在餐廳, 奇怪地, 今天竟然出現一個跟我同名同姓的人? 幸好最後只是一場誤會。經理細心地問我蛋糕是否需要放在freezer, 處理好蛋糕我就去接他了。 他也是第一次去半島, 我神神秘秘的, 事先沒有告訴他我們今晚到哪裡。一路朝著半島的方向走, 他說:「不是半島吧? 我咁大個仔都未去過半島...」我笑說:「哈哈, 咁今日就帶你去見識下啦!」總覺得第一次去, 要由正門入, 繞過兩層樓梯, 便到達chesa了。經理見到我, 便安排我們坐在梳化那

訂了7點半, 自己早了半小時到, 先把蛋糕放在餐廳, 奇怪地, 今天竟然出現一個跟我同名同姓的人? 幸好最後只是一場誤會。經理細心地問我蛋糕是否需要放在freezer, 處理好蛋糕我就去接他了。

他也是第一次去半島, 我神神秘秘的, 事先沒有告訴他我們今晚到哪裡。一路朝著半島的方向走, 他說:「不是半島吧? 我咁大個仔都未去過半島...」我笑說:「哈哈, 咁今日就帶你去見識下啦!」總覺得第一次去, 要由正門入, 繞過兩層樓梯, 便到達chesa了。經理見到我, 便安排我們坐在梳化那邊的第二張檯。真幸運, 我只是早了個多星期訂檯, 但坐的位置也不錯呀! 侍應送上兩杯水, 便開始介紹菜式了, 最近在做summer's salad的推廣, 他又向我們介紹芝士的菜式。其實我一早已經在OP做足功課, 不過最後當然是主角決定啦! 點菜時, 我一直擔心只叫3道菜不夠飽, 但別忘了還有一個蛋糕!!

點好菜後, 侍應便送來一籃麵包, 最喜歡那一片麥包, 十分軟熟, 再加上不太膩的牛油, 我很快已經吃完3個了! 不久, 我們的第一道菜--crab meat pancake就送上了, size不大, 上面淋上香濃的龍蝦汁, 新鮮的蟹肉, 一向為食的他說, 這種鮮甜的程度, 應該是只用了蟹身的肉, 連蟹鉗的肉都沒有用。是真的嗎? 雖份量不多, 只能淺嘗, 但真令人回味。(未能post到這道菜的相片, 因為在他的手機...

第二道是芝士raclette, 因為不想吃芝士火鍋以致太飽, 所以選了raclette。侍應送上時細心地提醒碟邊很熱, 然後送上一碟酸瓜配菜。我兩一向不太愛吃這類型的配菜, 所以只以新薯配著芝士進食。很重很濃的芝士味, 咸咸的, 吃到底還有一些近著碟邊很香脆的芝士。不過我最欣賞還是那些甜甜的新薯, 不配芝士也很好吃。

main course是rack of lamb, 我們都是不怕羊蘇味的人, 但這道羊架是完全沒有蘇味的! 五成熟的羊架內裡還有血紅色, 咬下是很嫩很滑的羊肉, 五成剛剛好! 伴碟還有薯蓉, 是磨爛了的薯蓉一層層鋪成長方體, 上面再配上一層芝士再焗。還有新鮮的伴菜如甘荀和粟米仔等。

平時食飯很快, 很少享受慢食的滋味。原以為3道菜不夠飽, 但很快已經有飽肚的感覺。這時經理過來替我們清理桌面, 我請他晚一點才送來「甜品」, 因為太飽了, 他友善地說沒有問題。就趁過這個時間好好欣賞一下這裡的環境吧。可能是星期五的關係, 今天全餐廳滿座, 有人在下面大堂等了一會才上來呢! 旁邊的情侶則在享用芝士火鍋, 有機會我也要試這裡的芝士火鍋和牛面頰。

說著說著, 侍應捧來了蛋糕, 問我要不要唱生日歌, 我笑說不用了, 只是請他替我們拍照, 沒有那種全場望住你切蛋糕的尷尬, 侍應也很貼心等我們欣賞完生日蛋糕才幫我們切 (有機會再寫一下這個生日蛋糕, 上網訂的!), 幫我們分好了, 又送上petit four甜品。說回petit four, 是香橙朱古力, 薑糖和酒心三角朱古力。香橙朱古力的朱古力有點香脆, 而酒心朱古力入口即流出充滿酒味的流心朱古力, 但卻沒有很啃喉的感覺。由於吃得太多甜食, 我們請侍應介紹一款熱茶, 最後選了earl grey (有中國茶, 日本茶等等, 但始終喝西茶配合一點吧!), 再坐了45分鐘喝了幾杯, 才結賬離開。

埋單比想像中平, 剛好$1000 (已包$50/位的切餅費及加一), 離開時侍應把未吃完的生日蛋糕包好送回我們。

簡單的一餐, 雖不知道我們還有沒有機會一起過你的每一個生日, 再周圍搵野食, 但希望這餐溫馨輕鬆又有少少高級, 再加自己給你小小驚喜的晚飯可以令你終生難忘, 也期待我們再有機會一起在chesa度過更多難忘的日子。

It should come as no surprise that with any fine dining restaurant, the wait is normally a few weeks. Chesa's no exception, but this place was truly worth the wait!

It should come as no surprise that with any fine dining restaurant, the wait is normally a few weeks. Chesa's no exception, but this place was truly worth the wait! Especially for cheese lovers... this place is cheese heaven. Amid the grandeur of the Peninsula, you almost would miss the humble entrance of this restaurant. From the outside walking in, it looks like some storage room. Inside, however, is a dimly-lit, cozy Victorian-style living room. The perfect setting for dates and nice for small family gatherings, but kids under age 3 are supposedly not allowed in according to the website. Whether they observe this rule is beyond me.

Service
As expected, the waiters here were very friendly and ready to assist. Your glass doesn't go empty, or at least not for a long time. Also helpful with food selection if you're not sure what to order.

Food
[Riesling]
If you like overly sweet and carbonated wine (I do!), order the bottle from Mosel, Germany. It will complement your meal.

[Bread basket]
Let's start with the bread basket, as that's complimentary and always comes first. Nothing too special about the bread. Unfortunately it wasn't one of those where you could simply savor the flavor of the bread. I had to add butter. The pretzel bread was nice though - imagine a lightly salted and very soft pretzel but in the shape of an American football. It was pleasant and I wish they had served more of that

[raclette]
Following the mediocre bread, I was relieved to find that the raclette cheese was sooo gooooddd. A slice of cheese thinner than the plate itself. I compared this to the raclette at Swiss Chalet and found this to be better. It was bit burnt (which I liked) and didn't have much seasoning on top, which left the cheese in its almost natural state *drool* Served with potatoes and a side of olives, gherkins, and pickled onions. Eat together with the cheese. Yums!

[champagne fondue]
Mouthwatering and delicious. I LOVED IT. The cheese used was emmental, a Swiss cheese that is popular for fondues. It has a creamy and light sweet flavour, and blends well with plain sour dough. The bit of champagne did not overpower the melted cheese, but rather complemented it. I found both the fragrance and the taste of this enriching. I lost count of how many bread cubes I dipped into the pot. It was just too good to resist >.<

[veal with mushrooms and cream sauce]
This came a bit later, when I was almost full from the cheese. Luckily I had some room left in my stomach for this, because it was again amazing. The veal was thin and tender, and the creamy, gravy-like sauce - which was a little on the salty side - goes well with the blander potato sticks meshed together like a hash brown.

[chocolate house]
One word: overrated. I was already full at this point but took a few bites. It looks cute, but doesn't mean it's good. Maybe I just like sweeter and thicker pieces of chocolate. The vanilla ice cream was also just alright, nothing too spectacular.

Verdict
Given the price, atmosphere and quality of the service and entrees, and the fact that I'm a cheese lover, I'd gladly come back. Wouldn't order the dessert, but yes to more cheese, meat and wine
