Food choices are sparse in the flegding Wong Chuk Hang commercial area. Previously populated with industrial buildings, it is quickly emerging as a hub for boutique stores, hotels and restaurants.GCX is the latest junior member of El Grande's Grappa's chain and sits comfortably among the limited selection of eateries on the street.

GCX is the latest junior member of El Grande's Grappa's chain and sits comfortably among the limited selection of eateries on the street. The entrance is a slash between a grocer and wine cellar. High ceilings, and clean red and grey walls adjourned by fading fashion posters make a welcoming and airy space...perfect for a chillax Sunday brunch.
Brunch options are standard but delivered without fail. The GCX Full Monty ($118) is an improved version of a full English Breakfast. The bruschetta is painted with a tangy tomato sauce and dusted with chili, a nice start to the meal. The two highlights were the beans, not the usual baked beans, it's a broader cannelini bean soaked in an acidic balsamic vinagear, which alone is quite overbearing but with bread is gorgeous!
Another eccentricity is the sausage. We were pleasantly surprised by the texture, the minced pork simply crumbles in your mouth effortlessly once you bite through the casing - not unlike Zhenjiang style jellied pork (镇江肴肉). Overall, everything is spot on! Brunch in Wong Chuk Hang doesn't get any better than this!
...that is, until you also order a pizza! The temptation was too hard to resist after we saw the fire wood stove. The Capricciosa Pizza ($110) combines two of my favorites foods - artichokes and olives - to a wonderful effect; the flavours from the robustness of cheese and tomatoes mix well with the sweet tartness of olives and artichokes. The pizza base was nice and chewy, but could have been drier and crispier, it's somewhere between Motorino and Pizza Express. Still, we impressed ourselves by devouring the whole thing!::||Good for||::
If you need dependable good quality food before exploring the nearby boutique/warehouses or maybe Ocean Park
