“Watch out, there’s a wildfire in your mouth!”
Located in one of Hong Kong’s most prominent shopping malls, Elements, Wildfire is going to make you hot! Wildfire Elements is one of seven franchises in Hong Kong. The Auburn interior and the glowing Ferrari Red fire in the entrance drag your feet in closer like a bachelor searching through an online dating site.
The place was healthily decorated with rich colours and friendly smiles all around. It was the orthodox Italian cuisine; the one that I have adored for the past decade. As soon as we entered the restaurant, our noses filled up with the smell of pizza receiving a tan in the stone-grill, and the saccharine tomato sauce. We immediately felt welcomed and our stomachs were shrieking for the food.
For starters, we ordered the house salad, which was recommended to us. As I hurriedly put it in my mouth, the unique combination of chilled meat, spackled vegetables, crunchy croutons and wildfire’s flavorsome traditional sauce shattered, as my tongue began to explore the food. It was very bland, yet satisfying.
The highlight of the day was the main meal; all that I looked forward to. The Pizza hovered in first, and it appeared to be something over my expectations. It looked very appetizing; it was like staring at a brand new phone. I was drooling, waiting to get a slice of what looked to be a present from the heavens. The first bite of the pizza was remarkable; the texture was very indulgent and juicy. It had an inch-perfect taste that made your mouth melt in joy. The barbecue sauce made it seem rekindled my memories of making pizza with my grandmother.
If you are an Italian cuisine lover, the pasta here would make you high. We ordered the It had a white chocolate creaminess, and a very nice appeal. The pasta itself was cooked to perfection, in the sense that it had not been cooked to hard, or too soft. Although very tiny for its price, the dish was absolutely charming! The sauce and pasta was perfect, it oozed flavor from every angle. A must get dish if you ever go to Wildfire.
While the portions at Wildfire are quite small I would still recommend this restaurant to everyone who enjoys a good quality food; the menu has a lot to offer! If there was one promise I could make you, it is that you will leave the restaurant wanting more.
