Came here to try their lunch sets, which I heard to be good value for money. The restaurant isn't too difficult to find, if you know how to get to Shatin Town Hall. The rooftop garden provides a nice relaxing environment, something which isn't easy to find in Hong Kong. For their lunch menu, the set includes a cup of hot or iced apple tea, bread with olive oil and vinegar, and a main course selected from a list provided. I chose the prawn penne, while my friend chose the roasted spring chicken with vegetables. To start off, the bread was delicious. Stamping the name of the restaurant on the bread was a nice touch. 推介美食: Prawn Penne

Very impressed with Common Room. The food we tried were delicious and I enjoyed the 'Kiss from a Rose'. The only down side would be that the tables are too close together and we could hear what the table behind us was talking about. First we ordered the grilled shrimp poutine. The sauce was flavourful, with both truffle and cheese flavour. The shrimp was tasty but lacked in size. 推介美食: Kiss from a Rose,Wagyu foie gras sliders 評分: 味道 4 環境 3 服務 4 衛生 4 抵食 3

This is the first super monday restaurant that I went to. The mains were 2 for the price of 1, so very reasonably priced. The restaurant was packed so I'd recommend making a reservation if you do decide to eat there on Mondays! We ordered a full caesar salad to share, and then a ribeye and sirloin steak. Overall I would go back again because Super Mondays is such a good deal! Caesar salad is a must if you like the bacon cooked that way. Will also stick to the port wine sauce with my steak! 推介美食: Caesar Salad 評分: 味道 3 環境 3 服務 3 衛生 4 抵食 4

Haven't had these in a long time! After three doses of the 'original' flavours.. it's time to try the summer ones before they're gone! 1. Veloute Framboise - Yoghurt & Raspberry This is pretty similar to the Veloute Ispahan, but of course minus the hints of rose. These yoghurt flavoured macarons are less sweet (on the edge of being abit sour), but still delicious. The ganache is creamy and milky, and slighlty acidic from the raspberry placed in the centre. This is my favourite out of the 4 yoghurt ones. The citrus flavour goes well with the slightly sour 'yoghurt' ganache. Probably the easiest to accept because you expect it to be sour anyway! 3. Veloute Banane - Yoghurt & Banana Personally I'm not a fan of banana flavoured things.. except maybe the fruit itself. 4. Veloute Ispahan - Yoghurt & Rose, Litchi, Raspberry At first I thought this was the raspberry one.. but immediately after biting into the macaron, I could taste the hints of rose. This was delicious, and since Ispahan is a house signature it won't disappoint. 5. Jardin Merveilleux - Mandarin Orange Olive Oil & Cucumber Water I think only Pierre Herme could come up with these bold and unusual flavours for his macarons. Before taking a bite of this, I had no idea what a cucumber flavoured macaron could taste like. Surprisingly orange and cucumber go well together, and one flavour doesn't overpower the other. The cucumber taste was very fresh, whilst the orange flavour was acidic. The olive oil was based in the ganache, but I was abit disappointed that I couldn't taste more of it. (I miss their olive oil and vanilla macarons. SO good) 6. Envie - Vanilla, Violet & Blackcurrant This was my favourite out of the box. A simple yet delicious combination. I think vanilla flavoured macarons from PH are amazing in general. I like the blackcurrant in the middle of the ganache, as it enhances the flavour of the macaron. I remember I had a Lemon macaron from PH in London, and somehow it shrunk after a day..? Luckily for me this macaron did not change shape in anyway when I ate it the day after. The flaky hazelnut added texture to the macaron. Word of advice, make sure you put these in the fridge, otherwise the humidity and heat in Hong Kong makes the biscuit turn soft and the ganache may melt. ALSO I hope they'll soon change their policy so that macarons could be purchased by piece. I think I would buy them more often if that's the case.. since two or three already hit the spot.

Went here with a friend almost exactly a year since we first tried this place out together. Don't think there were lunch sets last year, but they do have it now! A lunch set costs $118 and we decided to have caesar salad and a signature pasta to share. We also ordered another pasta which wasn't in the list of signature pastas to share. For dessert we had the tiramisu. This is reasonably priced with the lunch set, since we only had to pay $20 more for it. Sounds reasonable to add dessert Pasta craving satisfied 推介美食: Tiramisu 評分: 味道 3 環境 3 服務 3 衛生 3 抵食 3
