We elected to try out Serge et Le Pouche because it was awarded one star by the latest Michelin Guide. The restuarant is located in the Wan Chai district of Hong Kong, next to the local wet market and away from the expat heavy areas of Bo Innovation and the Pawn. We were seated at a common table, a high top table where another couple was dining already. Unfortunately, we did get water or the menu for a good ten plus minutes.

We were seated at a common table, a high top table where another couple was dining already. Unfortunately, we did get water or the menu for a good ten plus minutes. The common theme of the night was that the restuarant was under staffed.
When we finally received service, we elected the Chef's Menu.
Our first dish was cucumber granite with sea grape. It was a cold dish that was quite flavorful and refreshing.
The next dish was fried squid. The squid was very tender and the batter was done just right.
This dish was followed by the Tuna Tataki with pomelo, which was probably my favorite dish of the night, I only wish there was more of it.
Our next dish was monkfish, which was sort of a sashimi flavor.
The next two dishes, the eggplant and the rabbit... came together. We didn't know what the meat was and had to inquire. When we heard rabbit, we could only ponder back when the waiter asked us if we had any dietary restrictions; we said no. Our understanding of that question was whether we had any food allergies, but we assumed wrong. Needless to say neither of us liked our main dish.
Anyway the eggplant fried with miso and mix herbs was very good the texture of this dish was excellent.
Our desert was dried plum fruit pudding and lemon tart, which was really good.
We also got a surprise afterward, a sort of a maceroon puff.
In summary, some dishes were excellent but some are very average; however, the service was very disappointed. It took more than 20 minutes to just give us the bill. It definitely not worth a one Michelin star, and I don't think I will come back for this tasting menu.
