Went to Jimmy's Kitchen as part of the restaurant week deal. Before this, i had seen the sign outside a few times but somehow never got round to try it. The decor of the restaurant had an old world charm, and the old photos of various neighborhoods and landmarks in HK added a nice touch. One of the attentive waiters brought me a cushion to place on the back of my chair, on seeing that i was pregnant. Another waiter proceeded to mar the experience a little by coming over to ask one too many times
Menu: The amuse bouche was gazpacho, I chose smoked salmon tartare with chive creme fraiche for the starter, pork loin stuffed with apricots, spinach and pine nuts for the main, and passion fruit iced souffle for the dessert from the prix fixe menu.
The gazpacho was nice and refreshing, the starter of smoked salmon tartare was really good and had me eagerly awaiting my main course. It took a while for the main course to arrive, and it was good but not fantastic. There was no spinach and pine nuts, though i did have cherry tomatoes and mashed potato on my plate instead.
The dessert of passion fruit iced souffle was not really a souffle but more of passion fruit ice cream stuffed into a souffle container and made to look like a souffle. The ice cream was not bad though.
Overall, this restaurant was a pleasant surprise. It is perfect for popping in for a cosy meal, and i would recommend it to others despite a few misses.
