One of the most overrated restaurant in Hong Kong !!!My partner ordered the 3 courses set dinner in $328 under the promotion of BOC. Appetiser was duck foie gras terrine with toast, which taste fine but the veggies along with the toast taste bitter and salty.. The main dish was pan fried cod, pretty sure you could get much better ones from citysuper.For myself, I've ordered Herring for starter, taste ordinary and texture was soggy.Steak Diane was the most upsetting dish for the dinner, remind me
My partner ordered the 3 courses set dinner in $328 under the promotion of BOC. Appetiser was duck foie gras terrine with toast, which taste fine but the veggies along with the toast taste bitter and salty.. The main dish was pan fried cod, pretty sure you could get much better ones from citysuper.
For myself, I've ordered Herring for starter, taste ordinary and texture was soggy.
Steak Diane was the most upsetting dish for the dinner, remind me of those below $100 dinner set in some local "soya sauce" steakhouse. But this restaurant charge $340 for two thin pieces of chewy steak similar to "chinese style beef with tomato onion sauce". Pls don't get me wrong, as i love chinese style too, but normally only cost around $90 for a huge plate, while here you could get 2 slices only for almost price at 4 times! The server claimed it was beef tenderloin but it looks nothing like one.
Finally came with the dessert, at least sth taste comforting. Ginger crumble with vanilla custard, didn't taste surprising but still pretty good.
Coffee at the end was bitter than my mom's chinese herbal medicine and we couldn't take more than one sip even with sugar and cream.
Bill came up to over $900 including discount. Pretty sure there are much better choices out there for this price, eg. Watermark (they make excellent Dry aged filet mignon which cost the same). Even another overpriced but chic restaurant St Betty serve better meal. Respecting it's historical background as a traditional fine cuisine in the old days, it's important to maintain quality ingredients even without fancy settings to keep up with it's high price and stay competitive.
Service is acceptable and the lady serving bread has great smile. I'll give one star for the cushiony sofa and quiet environment.
Wish it luck...
