Having deserted Central for Wanchai for a couple of years, I now delegate the responsibility of picking a restaurant to my "Central" friends. Lunch today was a good choice, so thanks, R.While I was pleased to find that there were many choices to choose from for the set lunch, I was also distracted by so many different dishes that I wanted to try.

While I was pleased to find that there were many choices to choose from for the set lunch, I was also distracted by so many different dishes that I wanted to try. On my friend's recommendation, I picked the potato soup with chorizo and the suckling pig as main course.
Since I was much engrossed in our conversation - a lot of catching up to do - I have to confess that I neither paid any attention to what my friend ordered, nor asked how the dishes were.....
Back to the food. The soup was a bit of a let-down; I would have preferred something thicker and richer, and definitely with more pieces of chorizo rather than the one solitary chorizo floating on top.
The sucking pig looked delicious and tasted delicious: tender, moist, flavourful. The rice that accompanied it was also very tasty. However, it was not perfect. I really looked forward to munching the crunchy skin but instead met with a tough and rubbery skin. I huffed and I puffed and i attacked it with all my might but this little piglet skin was impenetrable! I gave up. Ordinarily, that flaw alone could have destroyed the dish but since the meat and the rice were so yummy, I'd be lenient in my judgment this time.
The dessert I picked on the recommendation of the waitress was chocolate cake and it was good, chocolately without being too sweet or too cloying.
I am sufficiently pleased with my lunch to want to come back for dinner... and another stab at that roast pig.
