The French Window (已結業)

菜式presentation真的很不錯，但是食品味道一般，最失敗是main course竟然是涼的，敗筆！！！！

因為今年的情人節是星期一，他一早計劃好我們的慶祝活動從星期六開始。這樣也好，不用和其他人一同吃套餐，又不用被迫偷聽鄰座的情話。星期六起了一個大早，準備出發，前往ifc The French Window，沒想到今年他所訂的這家餐廳這麼漂亮！無敵海景以外，整個裝潢實在精緻得讓我覺得自己像個公主！最驚訝的是那條長走廊，能夠在香港有這麼一個長廊實在奢侈呢！因為早到，我們是第一臺人客，我珍惜這個包場的機會，博命拍照。其中一幅墻上，掛了好多法國的照片，還有很浪漫的情侶接吻照片。值得一提的是一位講英文帶法國腔的waiter，好帥！他遞上的Menu設計非常有性格！灰色木紋，非常優雅！我們剛叫完菜，其他客人開始多，我也不好意思拍攝，因此錯過了拍攝我最喜歡的麵包藍。一餐絕對精緻的法國餐讓我們留下了難忘的印象！我叫的頭盤是一個蔬菜沙律，清新可口，主菜是燉牛面豬犜，意想不到的嫩！再加上可口的蘋果批甜品！豐富滿足！午餐價格，物超所值！值得再去！

十分巧合，我今天去French Window點的菜和網友kam wing yiu的一樣，也是中午去，因為$360特價午膳套餐，可任選Menu上的三道菜，看來十分超值！結果？頭盤牛油果蝦跟網友說的一樣『淡而無味』，後來翻看飲食節目介紹，這道菜原本有魚子醬在上面，現在沒有了魚子醬的鹹香去平衡，當然變得淡而無味，是否因為特價就令魚子醬失蹤？牛面頰和夢幻朱古力的評價也跟網友相同，不必再說。我太太點的溫泉蛋黑菌醬還算不賴，羊仔肉和招牌檸檬甜品又出現『好睇吾好食』情况。中環好的餐廳越開越多，你下次會選擇來French Window嗎？

之前找了很多食評關於the french window的食評，大多數都說不錯，所以今天與友人中午到此吃lunch，我抱了很大期望，可是.........我們點了:1. 頭盤: 牛油果蝦 (招牌菜式) --------- 賣相漂亮，一個個綠色形狀似青提子，裏面是蝦及牛油果沙律，味道淡而無味，十分差！跟其外絕不配合。2. 主菜: M9牛面頰---- 很奇怪，明明在網上及雜誌的不同，原本應是一塊塊丁方size的牛肉，但今天吃的是wellington style，即是外層是蘇皮，裏面是切碎牛肉，質感不好，有點兒似用剩了的牛肉去做，還有丁點兒腥味，唔知點解?? 都是得個樣靚！3 甜品: 我點了 :夢幻朱古力---- 又係得個樣靚，上層是朱古力mousse，下層是十分奇怪的脆米餅( 似早歺吃的朱古力cereal)，識食的open rice 朋友，聯想下這樣配撘会好吃嗎！如果下層是軟蛋糕或都是mouse，這道將會是ok的甜品朋友點了: 蘋果香梨撻配果仁雪糕: 唉.......十分差！完全不能登大雅之堂，根本不是撻，是一塊硬餅上加雪糕，味道差，賣相也差。***總結，環境一流(sea view)，味道

As part of our recruitment efforts, I took the summer associate there for lunch. The summer was clearly very impressed. Set lunch is HK$360 per person, pretty reasonable compared to similar french restaurants. The decor was very nice and the view was very open. Overall, the impact value of this place was high and the food was great.

The splendid interior design is a must-go reason to take your girl to, it melts every girl's heart. My friend and I went for the 3-course lunch. The food is average and the portion is really petite. I know the French is not known as serving portion as large as the Americans, but clearly I'm only half-fed after the lunch. Coffee or tea is served for no cost, though not mentioned on the menu. I had lemon meringue as dessert and it's the only surprise that I could recall.N.B. The receiptionist has

It seemed befitting that a pre-Sex & the City 2 dinner should be the kind the Carrie and Mr. Big are used to. So reservations at The French Window were made. It was my first time, and the transformation from Lumiere, a noisier place blending Sichuan and Brazilian drinks and food, to The French Window, a much quieter ambience but still with great views of the harbor, was pretty impressive. And traversing the long, dark corridor to get in lent some sense of arrival, since the restaurant is in a

補回數月前一頓午餐的食評...French Window 給我第一個印象是大門口的長長走廊, 燈光暗暗黃黃, 穿過走廊進入用餐居後, 一整排落地玻璃把陽光映入眼裡, 雖然當日天氣不算晴朗, 但仍然有精神一振的效果. 座位被安排於窗旁, 有靚景陪同進餐, 味道肯定加分!!先來了鮮橙汁和香檳, 喚醒還有 holiday mood 的味蕾!! 點了特別節日午餐, 一共有6度菜, 另有咖啡, 茶, 每位HK$688.00, 以這裡的收費應該算抵食 內容豐富的麵包藍, 牛油亦細心地分開了鹽和無鹽兩種, 可因應口味選擇. 一邊吃著麵包,喝喝香檳, 欣賞維港風景, 兩個人互相拍照, 等食的時間飛快便過了 第1度菜是歡迎小食 Amuse Bouche, 外表像兩顆綠色小瓜果, 原來內裡是蝦肉做的涵料, 入口清新, 十足蝦的鮮味, 絕對有「逗嘴巴開心」的效果~第2度是味道濃郁的 Cep Mushroom Cappuccino, 奶油加濃味蘑菇泡製而成的湯, 我覺得OK, 但女友感覺太CREAMY…第3度原本是黑松露配鵝肝, 但女友不吃內臟, 經理體貼地為她轉了一個蝦料理; 先說黑松露配鵝肝, 黑松露的鮮

not worth it.I was pretty disappointed having paid a lot of money for what was over-all a very boring meal. The deserts were great but the rest of the meals failed to impress. The service was ok, but nothing exceptional and not much better than restaurants 1/4 of the price. Fantastic location and great fit out, but as for food... yawn

Mommy asked me to pick a restaurant to celebrate and since I got a birthday coupon from AMEX, French Window has become an obvious choice to have a relaxed while refreshing meal.Didn't note down the special easter menu but there were 1 to 3 choices for each of the 4 courses. We ordered: Bell pepper sorbet served with baby carrot and zucchiniThe sorbet is refreshing and doesn't have any grassy flavour. It is lightly sweetened and goes well with the diced zucchini and baby carrot. Totally prepar

The wife was running a little late so I settled down at the table with a not-quite-chilled-enough vodka martini. A waiter offered me a couple of magazines to read while I waited, which I thought was a nice touch. Having already scoped out the menu online, we decided on the degustation tasting menu (HK$800) – and I opted for the wine pairing too (for an additional HK$600). Another nice touch was that our waiter offered to split the wine pairing in two (i.e. give us both small glasses with each co

同男朋友仔去我要左個牛油果蝦COCKTAIL 幾特別,同埋都幾好食,不過就淡左d佢整到好似個蘋果咁,好得意之後我maincouse要左一個羊,都好好味,如果再叫生D可能仲好~之後個dessert要左個杏汁梨,杏汁味好重,鐘意食杏汁ge人會好鐘意呢度ge氣氛都好好,不過就會嘈左少少,可能因為係lunch ge關係啦~有機會會再去ge

十一月下旬‧晴 無論你是否同意香港是否一個國際大都會，這裡也是個精彩的美食之地。至少米芝蓮在進入大陸任何一個地方之前，也先來登陸香港。而作為這樣的一個城市，先不論食物質素，中下價的食肆數量是夠多的，但論高級食肆，數目就偏少。單論高級的法國餐廳，舊年只加入一間CÉPAGE，今年又加入一間，就是這裡。 其實這裡跟CÉPAGE也不是全沒關係，只因這裡的餐廳顧問 ~ Justin Quek。這個名字由Les Amis開始，一直到現時的Whisk及現在的The French Window，也是行中的名氣輩。Justin作為餐廳顧問，伙拍年僅23歲的大廚Mickael le Calvez，效果是什麼樣的？也令人期待。找了一個周五晚上，來試試這裡的廚師推介菜單。 餐單分八道菜及五道菜的選擇，價錢分別是1280及780，而當中的菜色選擇也不盡相同，為了能完全的試勻廚師的推介菜色，就每人吃一邊吧。 侍酒師John過來打招呼，由從前的Spoon到CÉPAGE到這裡，也可真的說是見慣見熟了。選了支Marcel Deiss的99年Grand Cru，很好喝跟是晚輕鬆的氣氛也很配合。 說真的，吃了兩個廚師推介的

I must say 'French Window' offers excellent service with the perfect dose of attention. The decoration is, however a bit too elegant and proper . . . ambience is mellow but far from exciting.My friend and I tried the 4 courses tasting menu costing HK$800 .Bread basket is average, and so was the amuse bouche.The 1st course, blue fin tuna tarter was generous, fresh and very delicious! The 2nd course, pan-seared scallop was also delicious, but the black truffle sauce was a bit tasteless and unimpr

Food is very average, though the decoration is nice and staff is attentive. My wife and I order a la carte. Nothing knocked us out, though nothing was bad. We had beef tartar and smoked salmon as starter, and lobster two-ways and quail for main. The lobster two-way was the only one memorable with the laksa soup. However, the cheese was very good. Like the early writer, the Comte was very good. There is nothing wrong with quality, just nothing stood out. In fact, I am pretty sure they use very
