A Serious Coffee Pouring Station - With Sidamo Nikesse micro-lot Hand Dripped (Beehouse Hand Drip with Metal Cone Filter) – $60.

Quite smooth and smoky, they tasted almost rare but quite salty. Mixed with the parsley sauce and egg yolk, it worked out more balanced. Lovely dish. ~ 8/10

This looked pretty with the thin crostini wafers, and when we broke the 3 eggs open surprisingly it looked different from the above – this uses Japanese eggs. I really liked the thin chorizo and spinach. If there is a thing that I hope it can improve, is that I prefer more fresh tomatoes than semi-dried ones as it is quite powerful even versus the chorizo. Also don’t mind more Goat’s cheese! ~ 8/10

The Gravy is what impressed the most, you can tell it’s made naturally from boiling down meat and onion essence. The roasted meat is soft and tasty, the Yorkshire Pudding is slightly crunchy here. Sided with a horseradish cream. I personally want more beef though, since it’s good! ~ 8/10

This came externally a tad oily, but in fact it was excellent in taste and intensely sweet and chunky. Loved the Morteau sausage slices as well. ~ 7/10

This was quite tart and I like them like this, but everyone is different. You can use the cream to balance the sourness. The crumble was biscuity buttery, although I prefer them to be more ‘crumbled’ rather than pressed. ~ 7/10
******************************
They are serious about the food and coffees here, and the new ex Michelin 2 Stars Chef Shane Osborn single handedly changed St Betty into a highly popular restaurant and brunch destination within just months of taking over the kitchen. It shows that great food with a not too aggressive price tag will always get you customers. Word spreads fast in a city like HK!
(This Meal was by Invitation to St Betty)
