有幾多人會帶爸爸媽媽去蘭桂芳?

來到一年一度媽媽的生日, 去年帶她去爐端燒, 今年就等我倆姊妹去蘭桂芳替媽媽搞個小生日會啦~

先來兩份appetizers:

一份四件剛剛好每人一份, 以burger形式包住juicy厚厚pork belly肉同BBQ sauce, 加上蘋果同埋酸酸地嘅沙律捲心菜, 特別開胃!

Main courses以盡量不重覆食材的宗旨點選:
Truffle risotto

Black Winter Truffle FTW!
香味先奪眶而出, 再加上Parmesan 同Mascarpone兩款cheese, 芝士腔表示「芝」味濃到入心!

Seafood Spaghetti

Seafood Spaghetti

Bungalow其招牌之一, 墨汁意粉在黑色瓦碟上以黑撞黑, 為的是要襯托出那一抹黃金色的鮮甜海膽和顆顆飽滿的三文魚子, 還用上法式龍蝦濃湯作醬汁, 試問誰會對此main dish say no?

Chicken Roulade

Chicken Roulade

相比之下, 這道main course沒甚特色, 只是一般的雞肉, 雖然份量不少, 但只有mustard很老單調。
反倒對配角(索了不少油)的軟薯條較有興趣。

Beef shortribs

原本計劃點的Steak Baguette未能提供, 選了alternative – Beef Short Ribs
牛肉不過不失, 伴碟有一條pancette (意大利pork belly meat, 類似bacon)真的有點奇怪呢! 被side dish薯蓉搶哂風頭, 牛油味重, 薯蓉磨得好幼滑!

Crepes

呢份Crepes特別在於表皮有用焦糖以火槍稍為燒過, 所以會有層燒焦脆面, 多了一份口感。
Filling係dulce de leche, 即是甜奶布丁或者可以說成是用牛奶做成呈咖啡色的果醬, 甜和稀稠的程度跟caramel很相似, 配合微暖的香蕉片, 滿口幸福感。

Chocolate Fondant

Chocolate Fondant

餐廳極具心思, 除了在甜品寫上英文生日祝福字句外, 還在端上時播了生日歌, 幸好不像深夜的clubbing music般轟動, 未有把媽媽嚇倒吧!
心太軟流心, 外層鬆軟, 應有的指標都合格。雪糕不是一般配上的雲呢那味, 是Hazelnut + coffee, 頗特別。

總括來說, 餐廳食物質素很高, 店員均非常有禮, 晚餐時段而氣氛浪漫, 不論是二人撐枱腳, 或是小組gathering飯局都很合適。

Hitting Lan Kwai Fong should be mostly for drinks, but before letting alchohol reigns your mind, you should always eat first. Quite a random search in the Entertainer app makes us a visit to Bungalow - not one, but twice. It is a classy club-cum-restaurant, but like no other, food is surprisingly good and definitely not to the mere standard of "bar food" to fill your stomach. The thing unbeatable is perhaps price as well, as $250 is probably barely enough for two drinks in the area, but a fulfilling dinner at Bungalow.

Like some of the other bars in the area, Bungalow opens for lunch as well, though I rarely go that up the hill for lunch on weekdays.

One shouldn't have stereotyped that bars in the area are noisy and chaotic if he has been here and glanced at the chandeliers hanging up there. With high ceilings and classic light fixtures, together with black and white tiles putting together a spacious dance floor, black leather seats on the two sides don't give you a feeling of being in a club but just a chic french restaurant with a bar.

Big tables are spacious enough to host as many as 5-7 people. Such a cosy and comfortable dining environment makes Bungalow a rare gem for dining in the area. Unless you pay lots more to trade off for better seats, Bungalow beats a lot others simply by high C/P ratio brought by its highly affordable menu.

You will understand how "unbeatable" the pricing is when you notice that mains are mostly around $150-200 and bites are around $100. Not a lengthy menu to look at if you come for dinner, but food comes in a satisfactory variety.

As we are using the discount given by the Entertainer app, what we picked most are of courses main courses.

Bread basket was served before meal to bring up our appetite. Two kinds of bread were spotted, both of them being mildly heated and soft and going so well with butter.

Tuna Ribbon $178 - not like pieces of tuna sashimi to get in Japanese restaurant but in strips. Fresh tuna sashimi is worth a try regardless of its shape! More flavourful than mere tuna sashimi because of the highlight brought by creamy and refreshing taste of avocado and lime broth, though I admit that it is somehow a bit pricey if one would compare the price of tuna sashimi at Japanese restaurants and here.

Smoked wagyu brisket $178 - simply from the name of dish, you wouldn't have imagined that it was serving like a lobster roll! A superbly made combination of melting and intensely flavoured wagyu brisket and buttery bun makes it a main course that we would like to encore after the first bite. Beef brisket (牛腩) is frequently cooked in broth in Chinese cuisine, but rarely smoked like this. A nondescript taste of grill together with the robust and unique taste of wagyu makes it so decadent.

Smoked wagyu brisket

Rib eye steak $238 - given this price and the portion, we couldn't ask for more. It would of course be better if it was thicker (willing to forgo surface area) and with less seasonings.

Truffled mashed potatoes $68 - definitely a side dish that one COULD NOT MISS! Many would have taken masked potatoes for granted as they often come along with main courses, but this truffled one can never replace them and worth the extra pay. Aroma of truffle was soooo strong that it kept emanating from the mash, reigning your nostrils and resting on your tastebuds.

Truffled mashed potatoes

Seafood spaghetti $198 - rest assured that it is the best place and timing to consume squid ink spaghetti, as traces left on your teeth wouldn't be easily spotted under dim light! Portion isn't really big but fine for bites, satiating cravings for decadent uni and caviar.

Seafood spaghetti

Pear Almond Tart $88 - a classic French dessert to wrap up the dinner, not in a big portion but those having sweet tooth were happy with it. Buttery tart base with tender pear pieces made it a zesty bite and a palate cleanse.

Pear Almond Tart

What we encountered on our second visit is quite a different one in sensation - with party vibe as it was the Friday night before Halloween Monday! As expected, this is a perfect venue for parties and spooky decor took over the French fare place.

Unlike quiet and romantic weekday nights, crowds in costumes and drinks flooded the dance floor. We were actually joining Halloween parties after dinner as well.

There was a special menu for Halloween, though we weren't particularly moved and stayed focused on the regular dinner menu.

Lobster roll $198 - it was just a little bit marked up than fastfood-styled lobster roll eatery, but it was truly worth a try, mainly because of its strong buttery aroma of the bun. Lobster pieces in celery and paprika mayo were never enough for our lobster cravings! Together with a large cup of fries, it can really make one feel full as a main course.

Beef short ribs $198 - we were drawn to this because of the word "slow-cooked beef" on the menu and it did not let us down! Tenderness and juice-ful state was maintained at its best state given the slow-cook method. It was as decadent as the wagyu brisket we tried last time although different portions of cows were concerned.

Beef short ribs

We love especially the thick cut of each piece to showcase how juicy the short ribs were. Nothing to criticise about, in addition to the creamy mashed potato and decently grilled romaine beside and underneath.

Grilled pork chop $208 - portion surprised us more than the taste of duroc pork. Although the part given was rather lean, it wasn't hard to chew as it remained soft and tender after grilling. Braised lentils and caramelised apple pieces gave a boost to the meaty flavour which made this an all-round dish.

Grilled pork chop

Truffle shrimp capellini $178 - tossed with surprisingly clean cream sauce, this dish of angel hair pasta was never so appetising. As many as 5-6 shrimps were spotted, it outperformed seafood spaghetti in squid ink. We loved the texture of angel hair which was cooked just right without being too soft or soaked with moisture.

Truffle shrimp capellini

At first we didn't have much expectation on food in Lan Kwai Fong, but Bungalow somehow changed our perception. Undeniably affordable as it was around $250/head for both visits! We will definitely return before drinking hours in Lan Kwai Fong and even without drinking purpose, it is worth a visit to enjoy the posh French fare.
