Had a friend coming from Shanghai and so booked a table for dinner at Le Mieux to celebrate and offer him something better than the usual.

1) The Spa egg first course was WONDERFUL. Lightly cooked poached egg on top of a bed of fantastic chanterelles. The little bits of foie gras were okay but the real flavor was in the mushrooms.
2) The turbot was fantastic too. Light and full of flavor.
3) Consumme was a pleasant change of pace -- again, nice mushroom flavors.
4) Loved the risotto -- could have done with even more porcinis in that one
5) The chicken roulade was very good. We didn't much care for the lamb brisket (an unusual cut -- sort of resembled a lamb version of the usual Cantonese roast suckling pig.) Strong lamb falvor was not much to our liking.
6) Three mini-desserts on the plate. (By this time the wine had kicked in and I can't remember exactly what they were. :-) But I remember they were yummy.
So all in all a fantastic meal for a not-unreasonable price. (I'd order the same menu again, just to get those mushroom dishes, even if I just skipped over the lamb. There was plenty of food!)
Le Mieux now has a wine list of their own, but they still have a "no corkage charge" policy and that made it easier for us to enjoy some really fine wines. The staff was knowledgeable, attentive and friendly.
This was actually my first visit to their Wanchai location (had eaten a few times at the old Chai Wan place), and I liked it much better -- more convenient, more intimate, more like a real restaurant.
I'd recommend Le Mieux warmly -- and specifically their dinner full menu -- to people looking for fine food for a nice evening.
