LQV STANLEY - Stan Café (已結業)

今日去開依頭做野，揾間野好野食下。點知中大伏。食左個burger同egg benedict。諗住見個賣相幾好景又幾靚。應該都唔差。點知係惡夢既開始。首先個burger啲包係唔熱，個內部求其煎下，脆都唔脆。連中間舊肉都唔熱。我要medium rare, 唔係要medium cold。味道普通都不得了。食唔到落去，淨返一半。得啲薯條係正常。因為就咁炸。冇技巧可言。另外果個benedict同樣恐怖，我係叫smoke salmon benedict, 個三文魚又腥，啲包就淋哂。啲菜又唔新鮮。對不起，真係好差。浪費左咁靚既景。

Went to Stanley Plaza today for their display. I wanted to dine in but it was surprisingly full given the current outbreak so I ordered the 2 Macrons for takeaway.  Both macrons were beautifully crafted and visually appealing. Both Macrons have a lovely soft texture and the fillings were not too sweet.  However the base was stuck quite firmly and I couldn't separate it so I kinda have to eat the top part with the fillings and finish the bottom part separately. The Red Raspberries were surprising

今日約左一班朋友行山，由鰂魚涌行去大潭三個幾鐘。到左大潭緊係即刻飛去赤柱醫肚啦。Stan Cafe門面有好多唔同款色蛋糕選擇，就係咁我地被吸引去食個Brunch。Brunch Menu對於有小朋友一齊食就覺得選擇唔算太多。法式麵包同鹽味牛油就真心要比幾個讃👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻芒果帶子紅菜頭沙律，正！好清新，帶子又新鮮，係一款好開胃嘅小食。homemade蕃茄醬意大利麵又係冇得彈。蕃茄好香麵質感亦都好好。橄欖油芝士松子長通粉都好出色，香口又唔漏。腸仔薯條。咪睇佢好似好寡，真心講兩條法式香腸比預期中好味。呢餐雖然比較貴，但勝在好味道，有機會會再泥食！

As recommended by a gourmet friend, we celebrated our 43rd wedding anniversary at Stan Cafe. We were seated by the window with a fantastic view of Stanley bay. While one of our favorite dish, Bouchot Mussels Meuniere, was not available today, we ordered Burgogne Snails and Steak Tartar as Starters, and Slow-cooked Black Cod on risotto and Duck Confit as Main. Of them, the steak tartar was the best beef I had in years - both the taste and texture were excellent. The snails had strong flavor of ga

11月30日, 呀菲成為媽媽的第一個快樂生日! 今日呀比神神秘秘帶咗我同B豬去赤柱~ 其實平時d大日子呀菲都想食d正野慶祝下, 但當呀比介紹呢間名叫cafe既餐廳時, 實在係估唔到究竟呢個葫蘆賣咩藥... 原來, 呀比一早已經book定窗口望海既大卡位, 原來, 呢度係食法國菜架!::: 法式麵包籃 :::麵包籃同以前喺Chez Patrick Deli食過既有d似, d法包都係細細粒偏硬既一種. 搽上牛油唔錯, 但缺點都係太硬.::: Foie Gras Hi-Cuit Au Sel ::: $189鵝肝切片伴巴馬火腿沙律, 塊鵝肝切片都幾厚身, 上面灑上少少香料同細蔥, 口感油潤味道回香~ 巴馬火腿食得出係風乾月齡較長既種類, 食落夠晒鹹香惹味. 野菜沙律新鮮, 而且野菜種類幾特別, 除咗平時常見既baby spinach、romaine lettuce、紫椰菜、火箭菜等外, 仲有番茄乾、長豆、醃青瓜等~ 同酸酸地既醬汁幾夾幾開胃, 亦正好中和到鵝肝既滯膩.::: Steak Tartar with Stan Cafe Fries ::: $258據聞呢份牛肉他他係呢度既名物~ 一

肥髀測驗派卷！成績都幾好！小朋友需要多鼓勵！所以買件靚餅比佢！呢個鐘數赤柱可以買餅嘅地方唔多，呢間一直想試，知道價錢唔平，去到見場內一枱客都無，裝修幾新潮，似係酒吧格局，近門口有個大雪櫃，見西餅唔多款！賣相都唔錯！揚手有個著制服外藉女店員（老細？）過來！我同佢講要三件餅，佢放入一個大盒（九件都放到！）後講了一句好重口音嘅英文（？），我聽唔明（自問一向簡單英文對答都無問題！）佢重複兩次都聽唔明！佢同我都一臉苦惱（明明店內有另外一個華藉男店員，見到咁嘅情況但無過來幫手，可能佢都唔識廣東話）然後女店員就用身體語言，指示我去店內收銀處比錢，三件餅要$180！真係無唸過咁貴（雪櫃西餅前無紙或價錢牌）講真我一向食西餅都唔計較！賣相精緻嘅四五十蚊一件都食過，最緊要好味，但呢度嘅餅又未精緻到值呢個價錢！碌完卡佢無膠袋或用繩綁實就比我拎走（無手挽極唔方便，呢度應該唔預你拎走）朱古力慕絲：好濃朱古力味微甘，慕絲好滑，底層嘅脆脆米通餅底增加口感，面頭一塊金色朱古力！蛋白拿破侖：幾層拿破侖夾蛋白忌廉，拿破侖餅好酥脆，配蛋白忌廉唔乾，又滑又脆！泡芙拿破侖：只有一層拿破侖上面係忌廉同三粒泡芙，賣相好靚！泡芙好靚，

Dining options can be limited on the south side, and even then many restaurants are overpriced and mediocre. Our friend recommended the Stan Cafe for brunch so the 3 of us decided to come here early one Sunday at 11am to avoid the crowds. Even at 11am, we just managed to get the last table available because all of the other tables were all reserved!    Guess either make reservations in advance or come early like we did. The decor was simple and casual, and the seating was comfortable enough. The

There was an article in Ming Pao last Sunday recommending Stan Cafe of Stanley by the French Consulate General. That should be a very reliable and strong recommendation. We took a lunch there after having a walk in our beautiful Tai Lam Country Park. I am so lucky to have a friend who has lived in France for years and is a gourmet, knowledgeable in French food to be my companion for this meal. First, the menu was very French, and offered authentic French dishes, some of which we could rarely fin

Quiche, omelette, pesto pasta, duck andouillette. We came on a Sunday for lunch. One of us paid 100hkd for a "quiche" which was two tiny pieces of dry, savourless yellow things. Another paid also 100hkd for an omelette, made with 2 eggs nothing else, that makes 50hkd an egg, quite pricey. Pesto pasta was average, but for 130hkd, I would have expected something much better. My wife chose duck andouillete for 250hkd: it was ok but once again portion was very small.Verdict: definitely not a place

重陽得一日假無得出香港唯有同幾個sis去下赤柱吹吹海風~兜兜下見到呢間STAN CAFE之前睇雜誌介紹過幾吸引, 就入去食左個lunch啦~個貨車頭係堅!!!!! 首先黎個蕃茄芝士頭盤 :蕃茄比係普通街市買到果d甜,食落好fresh!! 同芝士一齊食,好夾~跟住仲有個好特別既蘿蔔仔, 細細粒係香港好少見~甜甜地爽爽地...good!我地仲叫最出名果3樣: 油浸鴨脾, 慢煮鱸魚同牛肉他他吞拿魚他他就食得多, 牛肉他他就第一次食...估唔到一d都唔會腥, 仲好有牛肉味!sis中意食魚, 可能因為食慢煮所以咬落好滑好林!!個fd好有勇氣試油浸鴨脾, 聽到油浸兩個字可能好多女仔都唔敢試但原來食落又唔會好漏...出面塊皮煎到脆同好乾,食完唔會隻咀油, d肉又唔dry又好有鴨香!!總括黎講野食都幾好味, 但價錢就貴左少少,可能因為係赤柱呢個遊客地方..不過都服務同個view都值回票價啦~~下次要試埋佢地d cake...好吸引!!

看朋友到Stan Café的相片,好吸引。便在平日,赤柱沒那麼人多時,來relax下。有得必有失,得到寧靜舒適氣氛,但食物(cakes)也零落。只有朱古力撻供應。看去只有三件,而且有點封乾了之感,便只飲飲咖啡,感受憂閑。Ginger Lait $40,好飲!西人薑,口味很出,沒有一般ginger latte,太重玉桂味,而失了薑味。Caramel Lait $40,ok。焦糖不太搶,又不會太甜。兩杯咖啡,口感很rich,奶充滿綿綿厚感!

六月尾時，第一個熱帶風暴杜蘇芮於週五晚上襲港，幸好明早起來，風已離去，天氣雖然不算太好，但也沒有狂風暴雨，於是便繼續出發前往赤柱。朋友從雜誌上看見在赤柱廣場五樓剛開了一間新餐廳Stan Cafe，當中更有不少甜品蛋糕，故此也成為了我們此行的目標。餐廳環境挺舒適，加上玻璃窗可遠眺赤柱海灣那邊的景色，感覺更加寫意。一心向著甜品而來，誰不知因颱風關係，店主前一晚沒回來弄製蛋糕，所以今天也沒有供應，頓時十分失望，只好吃其它鹹吃。先來的是Organic eggs a la Flornetine，$98，焗蛋內有不少忌廉菠菜，蛋也滑，但蛋味不是很濃，即使有點忌廉，味道亦是較淡。Linguine Pasta with Homemade Tomato Sauce，Basil and Olive Oil，$118。這個意粉賣相看似不太差，但吃下去味道毫不吸引，醬汁口感稀稠，感覺像是大快活的出品，不是說難吃，但不期望會在這裡吃到這種港式味道，而且大廚更曾到法國學廚，這更加有點不可思議，還要付百多元，更不值。Penne Pesto alla Genovese，Basil、Garlic、Parmeggiano

地方不大, 但裝潢夠特別, 簡單得黎好有外國小餐廳既風味食物選擇不多, 分為沙律, 主菜, cheese 同甜品無圖同只有英文menu, 以menu 亦係每星期轉換一次最後同友人揀左lamb rack 同black cod 同兩個$38 芒果汁芒果汁先黎, 好失望,連呃下我都唔呃, 成支Circle K 買到$11 支既芒果汁擺上黎, 仲要自己倒等候食物途中, 個空調凍到我打晒冷鎮, 待應都夠細心體貼, 問我係咪凍, 幫我熄冷氣另外見到其他table 都有附上麵包, 但我地等極都無=_= 食物終於到了, 比想像中美觀得多, 沒想到這樣的小店能有咁精緻既擺盤Black cod – 好滑, 唔會over-cooked, 唔會有腥味係底下既risotto 好好味, 軟硬度適中, 味道唔會過濃or 淡Lamb Rack – medium rare 既熟度岩岩好, 肉質鮮嫩, 但嫌面頭既mustard 過多, 另外伴碟既薯仔春卷都好特別整體上不錯, 但價錢也不便宜, 兩個main dishes 加上兩個芒果汁加埋10% service charge 承為 $650 。
