Sunny weather in HK finally again and time off from work, so decided to drive up to the peak and try an old favorite.This review is a combination of 2 visits over 4 days (that's the extent to which the wife is now liking shrimps). got seated quickly enough on nice tables both times (once with view of harbor and the 2nd time with a view of the peak tram)We ordered the following:1. Cajun Shrimps - easily the best item on the menu with the shrimps perfectly cooked and the salty garlic bread making
This review is a combination of 2 visits over 4 days (that's the extent to which the wife is now liking shrimps).
got seated quickly enough on nice tables both times (once with view of harbor and the 2nd time with a view of the peak tram)
We ordered the following:
1. Cajun Shrimps - easily the best item on the menu with the shrimps perfectly cooked and the salty garlic bread making an ideal foil to the cool smoothies (in my case, the Jenny's favorite - a combination of strawberrys and vanilla soft serve ice cream).
2. The American sampler - combination of pop-corn shrimp, seasoned shrimps, chicken strips etc. The only standout in this was the pop-corn shrimp, which can be ordered seperately, so best to avoid this going forward.
3. Shrim Po-boy - this is a big 6 inch piece of bread with some salad and pop-corn shrimps. Sounds simple, but works especially of you are feeling hungry and need some filler.
4. Scampi - Shrimp with pasta - not really great, too bland for my liking.
5. Dessert - my favorite part of the meal here. We were confused between the strawberry shortcake and the cookie with ice cream - went for the cookie and it was fantastic.
Will we go back? Definitely yes - but will stick to the gems on the menu and disregard the noise - the Cajun shrimp, the pop-corn shrimp, the smoothies (infact all drinks are really good) and the desserts (which are surprisingly the most value for money items on the menu).
题外话/补充资料：
definitely a casual date place with the views and the quiet walk post the meal
a bit on the expensive side, but the best bet on the Peak (though i have a love-hate relationship with the Peak lookout, more on that later).
Get the 1 hr parking rebate against the bill at the parking shroff (parking is quite expensive at 36 HKD/hr).
