The Word "osteria" originally comes from ancient Rome, where they appeared asrefreshment points for merchants wandering the earth looking for trade dealslater becoming meeting places for socialmingling.Starting from the 15th century, the Osteria became more and more numerous, ameeting place for citizens and intellectuals to debate and discuss currentpolitical and social ideas.

Starting from the 15th century, the Osteria became more and more numerous, a
meeting place for citizens and intellectuals to debate and discuss current
political and social ideas. Even in recent times, many osterias can be found in
Rome, where i grew up, places where you are sure to find enjoyable food and
local table wine. Here you can find the "oste", owner, manager or
also chef of the establishment if needed, entertaining the guests while
handling the restaurant operations. My
memory back to my younghood and is so beautiful remember my city when we use to
say “The Capital of World “. Its is to smell the scent of history surround
you. Something to see an try in Rome.
In Hong Kong I can relive some of these memories at the
Osteria inside the Holiday Inn. It was not exactly what i expected but overall it
was a good experience. This restaurant is a standing landmark in the TST area
for almost 10 years, sign that chef Paolo is doing wonderful job in the kitchen
despite the last difficult years in Hong Kong. We found a good environment,
with a friendly welcome from the staff and amazing open kitchen where you can
find Chef Paolo taking care of the operations on the front line. Beautiful
view. We decided to go for set lunch with buffet. The buffet was good, little
bit less than what we expected. Parmesan cheese came in a half wheel for
customer to carve and fresh asparagus was very good. Other items in the buffet
were of average quality. Cold cut section was including 3 different choices.
Cheese section with parmesan cheese and 2 selected soft cheeses. We were a
little disappointed about the main course offered with the set lunch. I choose
pizza and my friend ordered chicken, both of them good quality, but I do
believe even for set lunch pizza should be coming in normal size, maybe with
less choice of toppings . Both of them were a very small portion instead.
Dessert buffet was also offered, but the choice available was a bit poor, with
tiramisu, pannacotta, fresh fruit and some cookies. The quality of food was
overall quite average. We were expecting more for the level of this restaurant
and for the price paid for the set lunch. My humble suggestion: Chef
should add some food from Roma to be given some idea of what Osteria truly means,
in order to be able to convey the right atmosphere and peculiarities to guests,
Will be back again!
