Foie gras with caramelized figs and port jus: foie gras properly cooked. crisp and hot on the outside (yes, it has to be hot) and melting inside. very fatty. and no floury sensation in mouth after chewing on the organ. $140
Blue snow-crab cannelloni with fennel cream, seared cajun bay scallop $120 brother ate this. stole a bite. i can't comment a lot coz i'm not a fan of seafood. all i know is that it was tasty.
Seared herb-crusted Ahi tuna maguro on pomelo mango salad
I ordered this dish. As i said i'm not a fan of seafood but i didn't want caesar salad or parma ham + melon. So i took mum's advice and tried this. It was OK. at least i managed to eat it. for those who don't know, seared tuna isn't completely cooked. it's seared on the outside so that only the outer layer is thoroughly cooked. the center remains raw. the mango salad complemented it well. $95
Baked Onion Soup Honest - you seldom get good authentic onion soup in HK. it's either short on onion, or short on cheese, or they hadn't even bothered to give you the soaked bread inside the soup. worst of all sometimes they don't give you the melting mozzy on top. This one, this one had everything. only complaint: too filling - irresistable $70
mango sorbet YUMMY. cold, NOT icy (no icy granules) - smooth, very mangoey. mm. effectively cleaned my palate for the mains. [complimentary]
Lamb wellington with duck confit and prosciutto with garlic gravy $280 a very special dish. and delicious, despite the fact that we don't often come across this combination. but who cares. it tastes good. $280
Confit de Canard I ordered this dish. Soft, fall-off-the-bone meat, crispy skin, delicious filling (beans) and sauce. It was a reduction of some sort. And it was filling. only one duck leg and it filled me up to the brim. Had to share with everyone else. Not the best duck confit i've had but definitely one of the most enjoyable ones. $170
