A small restaurant in the popular SOHO area, which serves vegetarian Italian cuisine. Sounds unique ! Well, the dishes and tastes are also unique, which you cannot repeat anywhere in Hong Kong.Its a very small restaurant, with one big center dining table enough for a big family of 10 or 12 back home, but here you have to share this table with other customers. Its a unique dining experience and not an uncomfortable one.There is a big menu on one wall , with drinks menu on edge of the ceiling.The
Its a very small restaurant, with one big center dining table enough for a big family of 10 or 12 back home, but here you have to share this table with other customers. Its a unique dining experience and not an uncomfortable one.
There is a big menu on one wall , with drinks menu on edge of the ceiling.
The menu is constantly changing which makes it worth going again and again. The portions are average , enough to share between 2-3 people.
Have tried many dishes here, and none of them are bad. Some of them are little rebellious if the Italians came to know about it.
1. Japanese Plum Pasta
A fusion of Japanese and Italian, as the name suggests it combines Japanese sour plum with an olive oil based pasta with seaweed. Maybe not a cup of tea for everyone, but its worth trying if you love Japanese cuisine. And a thumbs up to Herbivores for thinking out of the box.
2. Pesto Sauce Pasta
Its literally an evergreen pasta , and if you are in no mood to experiment then go ahead with this. Its a nice creamy in rich pesto sauce, which would melt away in your mouth.
3. Avocado Roll
Now comes a Mexican-Italian fusion. This appetizer may have European combination of ingredients but its presented like a sushi. But its a nice appetizer to warm up your appetite.
And there are other pastas, vegetarian mushroom steak, tofu main courses, caprese, bruschetta, soup of the day.
In all there is a wide range in the menu, and its upto your mood of the day to choose your dishes.
The staff is friendly and with 1 or 2 servers catering to you.
The male restroom is worth a visit , to see how Hong Kong utilizes each and every inch in this space crunch city !
Never tried their brunch, but have heard good reviews from those who have had their brunch there.
Definitely not a place for group dining, but a different experience for a couple or two.
