Lobster Bisque with VSOP (Marks: 9/10)
What a way to open! Definitely not canned-soup, with a few pieces of lobster meat and we tasted alcohol.
Found out from the friendly waiter (who happens to be the owner!) that indeed brandy was added. Opps, now we know “VSOP” in the menu stands for “Very Superior Old Pale”, a grade label for brandy.

Black Truffle Cream of Mushroom Soup (Marks: 8.5/10)
Also a superior one. The creamy soup was filled with ample of finely-grained mushroom, and black truffle never goes wrong with anything.

Starter: Baked Crabmeat and Cheese Stuffed Italian Portobello Mushroom (Marks: 8.5/10)
Yes it was covered with generous amount of cheese, but it was not greasy or made us stuffed, nor did not override the freshness from the crabmeat and mushroom!! It was a great combination, the Portobello was juicy and each bite with ample amount of well seasoning crabmeat!

Roasted Rack of Canadian Pork with Apple Puree.14oz. (Marks: 6.5/10)
It was there hot pick and highly-recommended by the owner. Was a bit disappointed though
It was just mediocre, did not enjoy the tenderness of meat like others did, perhaps a bit overcooked….. the apple sauce was interesting, but probably could not that exciting enough to make up for the average pork.
Seemed I am the only unlucky one to be not satisfy with this

Baked Flatfish Fillet & King Prawn with VSOP Lobster Cream Sauce (Marks: 7/10)
It smelled great as it arrived our table. The one piece of prawn was indeed king size, while the meat was again fair. Two pieces of flatfish fillet which were quite large, too. Fair again, at least not rough like fish fillet in other restaurant.

The mains were just average, perhaps we had too much of expectation due to the high rate of others, as well as our great starter and soup. Also, the sides of both main dishes were more or less the same, and average… not much special flavouring - broccoli, cauliflower, potato, the flatfish one came with an additional tomato.
Was not motivated to order extra dessert (regretted a bit now after looking through others’ review~), ordered drinks.

A drink good enough in terms of size and taste for your long chat.
*Had a chat with the owner, he spent some time in Australia and intended to bring the relaxing culture from Aus to HK. That’s true the restaurant was spacious, and no time limit, he said customers are welcomed to sit all day until the close
This is a great point! We arrived early that evening but eventually it was full-house.

Perhaps there is an issue in the food consistency… and should try their homemade pasta next time. At least, the environment was good enough to have a long chat
