Ta Vie, a tiny Japanese French restaurant locates in Central run by Chef Hideaki Sato, is a michelin one star and also top 50 restaurant in Asia according to William Reed Group. They are offering short tasting menu for lunch, which certainly draws my interest to try out and continue my michelin gourmet journey. The short tasting menu consists of 5 courses include coffee or tea. The enviroment is very cosy as the restaurant only occupies around 7 tables and all served by Japanese waitress. How
The enviroment is very cosy as the restaurant only occupies around 7 tables and all served by Japanese waitress. However, English language should not be a problem as they patiently explain each course for you. Service is exceptional as for each course, they will change your silver ware to suit for that particular dish. The timing for each course is also perfect that will allow you to digest and take a short break.
Food quality is exceptional starts with eggplant and abalone. Abalone is very tendered with japanese ravigote sauce matches very well. The egglant is just a garnish to my opinion providing a different texture for the dish. Next comes with home made pasta with seaweed sauce and uni from Hokkaido. The flavour is a lot milder than it looks though. To my opinion, the uni is fresh but doesnt match too well with the pasta taste overall. But that is more towards my personal opinion. Next comes with Ray Fin in vinegar sauce with black truffle. This dish is spectular! The flavour is absolutely perfect and really enjoy the slight truffle taste that matches so well with the fish. So good! Next the wagyu mini steak with burnt onion and onsen egg. I really wish this is a real wagyu steak as it is infact only thin slice beef instead of real steak. Taste wise it is good but considering this is the main course after the outstanding previous ray fin fish. This is without a doubt a bit let down for me. I guess that is the reason why this is a "short" tasting menu. (Forget to mention home made bread and butter is serviced before the real tasting menu.)
For dessert, they offer the meringue ice cream with butterfly shaped sugar tarte. Very nice presentation. Afterwards, you have the choice of different tea or coffee. I picked one of the cold ginsen tea from Taiwan from their tea menu. This tea is so good. Something very different than what I had before. A perfect blend of taste and good way to end the lunch set.
Overall, I am very impressed with the food, service, and enviroment. The key ingredients are all Japanese but served in French style. The flavor is also Japanese so it is kind a fusion mixed of two country. The short tasting menu is very good and I am sure it will be enjoyable to everyone. I really wish the real wagyu steak is included but that would be a different price tag. Highly recommended.
HKD 790 plus 10% per set.
