Harlan Goldstein's Comfort (Closed)

朋友訂了位來試一試這裡的午餐, 沿著LKF一路上來便可。頭盆是自助形式的沙律吧，選擇不少，但多數都是冷盤, 沙律菜應該有的也有, 還有任食的param ham, 吃完還會refill的, 味道也不錯。主菜我點了一客新奇cross-over的咖哩泡菜餃子, 感覺很特別, 咖哩的味道有點像印度的口味, 辣辣的, 不是一般可食到的味道, 反之不太像吃得出泡菜的味道。餃子炸得脆脆的, 點著咖哩食竟然有種說不出的合拍, 很值得一試!朋友點的Pasta相反卻比較普通。甜品是自家制的雪糕, 剛好可清一清味蕾, 回到公司再努力工作。

Feeling celebratory on a Friday, a couple of friends and I decided to try Comfort by Harlan Goldstein for the first time. I'd heard good things about this place, which were all to be dashed after a taste of the main.A little backgrounder: It was LKF Dining Week last week in which participating restaurants were offering lunch set specials for HK$159 per person all week. I was at Souvla and PEZ HKC on Wednesday and Thursday prior to COMFORT where I had great value, delicious meals. So my expectati

今日再次來到Harlans旗下這家餐廳午飯。午飯時間人客不多，相對晚餐餐廳較寧靜。頭盆是自助形式沙律吧，選擇不少，有泰式粉絲沙律，日式茄子，意式燒雜菜，西式有不同的沙律菜選擇。泰式粉絲沙律的酸辣，日式茄子的甜醬油，意式燒雜菜的香，款款新鮮且做得入型入格。主菜我們均點了漢堡飽，泰式咖喱雞和海鮮貝殼粉。漢堡扒肉汁豐富，一口咬下去肉汁沿著手漏出，幸好店員很貼心，一早奉上濕紙巾。漢堡扒加上新鮮配菜，吃完也不覺漏。貝殼粉也不遜色，汁沒有太多，但沒因而太乾，配上蔬菜和海鮮，清新但飽肚。泰色紅咖喱雞配薄餅，雖然夠辣，但卻沒有正式泰國咖喱的那種香。最後的甜品也是驚喜，我不曉得那是brownie還是什麼，它沒有brownie的heavy，但有濃濃的酒香。三道菜連餐飲，肚子圓圓的走，滿足

Love hanging out with my gals coz they don't mind go new restaurants to have some adventures. This time, Harlan's comfort.We order different cocktails for each of us. We haven't tried the others but we all love ours!!!Normally I don't fancy deep fried foodie, but this  Japanese wagyu beef croquettes it's tasty, slightly dip the source is just perfect!The platter is actually too heavy for 3 gals, and we are glad that we didn't order more dishes (the staff said we may need to order more foodie!) w

 自從年多前到過Harlan's旗下的"Gold"吃過一頓令人愜意的brunch之後，對這個品牌就有了信心。對這個名牌大個子大廚的廚藝及態度，也就多了一分佩服....得悉他在蘭桂芳同地方內開了一所走casual dining路線的"Comfort"，就一路很想再試一下他的手勢....終於等到有假期了，向太太說不如過來吃一餐吧....對著一面懇求充滿誠意眼光的我，她也不太好意思說不好了....很早便抵達到餐廳，甫一到便看到Mr. Goldstein已在打點一切。一間有水準的餐廳，老闆永遠也會留在店內坐鎮監場的，這樣食物質素才會有保證....上次去的"Gold"如是，今趟的"Comfort"也屬同一個情況....這裡的lunch set跟"Gold"一樣是以半自助形式奉客，當然"Gold"的前菜沙律陣容比這兒更鼎盛，亦有少許熱盤的供應。這裡的除了有好幾款的凍肉片以外便是一系列燒菜蔬及沙律，可以說是以貴精不貴多取勝....A Selection of Healthy Salads ---- 普通常見的羅馬生菜大大片亦爽囗新鮮，咬入囗是嗦嗦有聲的；較少見的選擇則有將薯仔塊弄得極爽的德國式薯仔沙

I have a rather complex feelings on Harlan Goldstein's latest opening Comfort at where Strip House was once located. I mourn for the temporary closure of Strip House, but I am also elated to try a new casual dining experience created by Harlan! At Comfort, you do not need to care about the "smart casual" dress code or worry about the extravagance environment that urges you to behave. In Comfort, as it's name suggested, it is a restaurant aims to provide a causal environment to bring comfort ambi

慕名而來, Harlan品牌, 我雖知不是去到IFC那級數, 但也不是樓上酒吧, 在舊唐樓(有lift), 但很真的很舊,店內又黑又細樓底很低. 總之唔comfortable 那種. (同個名剛相反). 講番食物, 好彩都是有Harlan 品牌的水準. Roasted Yellow Chicken 398 – 皮脆, 肉juicy, 但就咸了點. 算有水準. Slow cooked Spanish Pork Ribs 328 – 比Chicken 更值得推介, 燒到離哂骨, 肉夠香夠腍. Salmon tartar – 外表分十足, salmon同caviar夠多, 但用料一般, 好能sauce 太多了, 吃不到salmon味, caviar 亦無乜味. 值得讚係用popadom, 比用cracker有心思. Waiter/waitress態度一般, 很cool, 對外國人態度比對我們好10倍. 有代改進.

Harlan Goldstein’s famous name is synonymous with hearty fine dining like the premier establishments in Hong Kong: Michelin starred Gold and previously Strip House in Lan Kwai Fang. I was invited to go to a tasting (remember all my meals are paid for by myself, with friends or family- I rarely go to a tasting and if I do. I will state it…I get a lot of questions about that! HEHE) a few weeks back and much to my surprise busy Mr. Goldstein (who will be expanding his culinary empire, Penthouse and

Strip House 變了身，變成了Comfort，跟朋友在Easter long weekend前的最後工作天來吃了個lunch。Set Lunch是salad bar + main course （四選一）+ dessert + coffee/tea。Salad bar有cold cut， fresh veggie和 grilled veggie。值得一提，grilled pineapple 和 grilled mushroom都很好吃！朋友都說，Comfort的salad bar比Strip House的好吃。我選的是"Welcome to New York Baby"。鹹牛肉三文治，配椰菜沙律（colesaw） 和脆薯角。三文治味道比較普通，芥茉醬味道不突出，但牛肉有三大片，份量很夠！薯角是外面脆，內裡綿綿的薯仔。朋友選的"Singapore Style Salmon Steak"。十分有驚喜！新加坡蟹肉汁十分鮮味，而且啖啖肉，用來沾金絲卷來吃，夾！相片中的三文魚被醬汁完全埋沒了。（笑）甜品是Crème Brûlée。布甸本身很滑，奶味很濃，但表面的焦糖略嫌有點硬。不嗜甜的朋

好友生日，她選了這家餐廳。Harlan’s的大名，應該衰極有限吧！星期五的晚上，餐廳滿滿的，好不熱鬧。跟朋友打過招呼還未坐好，西人女侍應立即問要喝點什麼，那時氣還在喘的我想來一杯溫水，卻得到一個不屑的反應。我才不會受影響，開始看我的menu。我問友人為何訂了枱都要坐門口？窗邊一排卻是空空的？說是有客人預訂了。選擇不太多，但感覺有點複雜：有泰式咖喱？又有西班牙海鮮飯？多國美食？朋友們選了沙律。。。份量少了一點吧？每人只有一小束蓬蓬鬆鬆的菜！來一客蟹餅，在我，有點咸，但蟹肉夠多，不似其他餐廳用薯蓉搭夠。還有牛臉脥，好夠腍同入味，size也比我預期中大塊。再來的是 bucatini with tiger prawns, 我喜歡用上很多的新鮮蕃茄，食完唔濟。之後再來了兩個甜品，是朱古力慕絲同apple crumble，賣相一流，但前者水汪汪的，像溶了的雪糕搞埋一堆。後者則令我有意外驚喜，蘋果份量多但沒有太濕，也沒有極度強烈肉桂味。說是星期五晚，用餐尾聲門外已有一些沒訂枱的客人在等候。續上文，訂了窗邊一排的客人還未出現，餐廳也不打算開放座位給門外等候中的客人，那我們也只好離開了。

Harlan opens a casual and informal restaurant concept named COMFORT which allow guest to experience a relax dining experience . At Comfort, you will find different international culinary delights such as beef brisket curry (Thai), pasta, pizza, burger and steaks by looking the choices of the menu.The menu is easy to read and understand because it is categorised into three parts: Something wet, Something small and Comfort's special dishes. In addition, the prices are pretty reasonable; starters a

珊珊來遲的生日飯，朋友想試這常路過的人氣新餐廳，難得大廚肯紓尊降貴落戶蘭桂坊，據點還不只一處。朋友因而找錯了對面較有情調的Gold By Harlan Goldstein，幸好在那邊也查得到在Comfort的訂檯紀錄。已有心理準備店裏會很吵，更在電話確認訂檯時幾乎聽不到店員的聲音，只約略應了便掛線。餐廳隱身橫街的商業大廈內，所以星期五亦11時便收爐，星期日還休息。餐廳地方不大，桌子都排得密麻麻，音樂實在太吵。客人大都喝上幾杯高談闊論，才能蓋過音量過大的音樂。桌子不大，跟鄰桌只有幾吋的空隙，留心也能清楚聽到他們說話。餐牌將食物分為Something Small、Something Wet和Something to Share等，有美式家庭式餐廳的氣氛，餐點靈感來自Harlan周遊列國和家裏的味道，大廚滿場飛跟洋顧客閒談，我們沒叫酒，點了大家推介的Japanese Wagyu Beef Croquettes (即炸和牛丸，用中文卻像降格幾倍)，還有慢煮八爪魚、Fisherman’s Soup、名字沒記下的自家製鮮蝦中空意大利麵、六安士半熟牛柳用煙肉蜜糖小椰菜當配菜。餐廳的燈光恰到好處，照得

Harlan Goldstein's Comfort 是我一直想試的餐廳。吸引之處來自餐廳舒適休閒的主題，相比高雅嚴肅的用餐環境，更適合我的性格。 而 Harlan Goldstein 更將自己最喜歡的菜式，以及與親友們共嚐的菜式，化作餐廰的餐單，相信少了一份商業元素，同時亦期盼可得到另類的味覺感受。Harlan Goldstein's Comfort 果然是熱點，餐廳採取分段用餐時間。於是老公和我6時45分抵達，8時30分需要交還座位。老公喜愛白酒，兩口子要完成一支白酒並不困難，除非當天沒喝酒的興致！紐西蘭的 Sauvignon Blanc 不太甜、帶有點點果香和酸味，容易配襯不同菜式，無論在味道與檟格方面，亦是平易近人的選擇。有了美酒，當然也要美食相伴，首先要來了 Japanese Wagyu Beef Croquettes。Japanese Wagyu Beef Croquettes 配上兩款醬汁，白色的就是 Mayonnaise，而啡色卻是甜甜酸酸，味道跟 A1 Sauce 有點相似。和牛肉餡頗香，可惜外層的炸漿實在太厚、太硬了，未能讓 Croquettes 打動味蕾。餐牌上有

午膳時間於Harlan Goldstein's Comfort用膳，或許時間尚早及餐廳地點稍稍隱閉，食客不算太多。店內格局悠閒，感覺都算舒適，只是餐桌密度稍高。午市套餐$198+10%一位，可享用自助沙律吧、主菜、甜品及咖啡茶。沙律吧提供三款火腿腸，尤以薄切風乾火腿食味較吸引，鹹香風味恰到好處，若配上生果吃口味會更見平衡，可惜店方沒有提供。沙律菜同樣有三款，選材新鮮爽甜。伴碟食材也有不少，粟米、鮮茄、洋葱、麵包粒等一應俱全，尤喜愛加上法邊豆，脆口清新。醃製沙律以車厘茄茄子做得較出色，車厘茄酸香甜美，茄子腍中又富口感，沾上酸甜茄汁份外美味。主菜先吃Cacio e Pepe，重點在於醬汁，pecorino sardo芝士香味與黑椒味道同樣突出，味濃帶微辣。配上一小件脆煙肉，份量確是少了一點，但煙肉確是脆口美味。意粉用上較粗身的Bucatini Pasta，口感明顯較實在。成品食味都算不俗。另一主菜Harlan G's Slimming Salmon Steak，主要食材是三文魚扒，肉質略實，不夠細嫩。醬汁以咖哩口味配以smoked bean-curd製成，不太合個人口味。甜品Sicilia
