呢一餐係透過restaurant week 訂枱，2人出席之前喺呢個網站睇過環境我哋book咗6pm但係去到估唔到一出𨋢已經係佢哋嘅沙發枱，主要靠高身梳化背去營造屏風同私隱度，但係以法國料理同埋氛圍嚟講，就略嫌粗枝大葉- 大廳格局係先窄後濶佢哋俾咗一張接近門口嘅枱，雖然係梳化位，但係接近門口嘅位置比較窄同對面窗口枱好近，所以我哋問佢換枱，而最後佢都肯換一張喺大廳中間位置嘅二人枱我哋叫咗一杯gin + dubonnet, 聽講係英女皇最愛嘅cocktail 🤣,而dubonnet 係法式aperitif, 黎到依間餐廳一定要試吓- 廚師好明顯對於食材選擇，配搭同處理手法上落咗唔少功夫，由佢一開始嘅麵包籃，用乾蔥酸忌廉醬去配搭，另外牛油選擇亦都有兩款，其中一款係輕輕哋溝咗鹹魚嘅牛油佢哋最出色係前菜同熱食，尤其係吞拿魚，牛肉他他就好巧妙咁做成三文治形態，方便食客享用，油甘魚配青蘋果嘅擺盤對於法式料理嚟講太簡單熱食嚟講青口算係最好，配帶子嘅mousse 似帶有西芹味，但係味道上又唔算係夾得好完美，法國蝸牛食材處理上邊預先挑咗啲肉，然後放返係一個蝸牛形狀嘅陶瓷杯再烤上碟，都睇到佢哋顧及食客方便嘅心思- 主菜我哋唔係好敢嗌skate, 因為係煎，好擔心會過熟嘅情況，所以最後揀咗黃油雞同埋牛肉黃油雞處理手法傳統得來又保持水準，聽講佢嘅雞胸同雞髀係分開烹調，以避免出現部份過熟令到肉質好嚡嘅情況至於加$118嘅牛肉pithivier ，啲肉質煮得剛剛好，但係食完前菜同熱食已經飽咗七成，再俾咁大份，仲要係用酥皮包住嚟焗嘅牛肉加鵝肝醬就實在食滯咗，好彩唔係我嘅選擇，但係佢擺盤上面如果配合返少少菜蔬會好啲- 甜品有熱有凍，隔離果個食完個牛肉已經再食唔落croffle, 佢最後揀咗pistachio cream而我見歐陸式食法總會會有芝士配乾果呢類型嘅「甜品」，最後揀咗一份熱金文巴芝士配蜜糖同埋多士，呢個算係全晚焦點，原來用煮溶哂嘅芝士去配多士，再加少量蜜糖，實在係簡單得來又非常出色嘅一道菜整體評分我會俾8/10，因為食材尤其係甜品嘅熱芝士跟法式麵包🥖再加蜜糖有驚喜，但係佢嘅環境氣氛都需要認真處理一下咁先可以再爭取到米芝蓮星星希望餐廳加返多啲植物或者綠化類型嘅裝飾提升氣氛，另外可能加返地氈減少食客傾談嘅時候聲音迴響…Read More

人越大越珍惜同朋友見面嘅機會，畢竟仍然會相約嘅都係重要嘅人。各自揀個頭盤，Caesar Salad - 正常都唔會有咩出事位，而呢個沙律亮點應該係溫泉鵪鶉蛋 ，仲有Tuna with Two Spices - 配上酸酸甜甜嘅牛油果醬，係個好開胃嘅前菜，嗰個醬用嚟點麵包，就係牛油果控嘅我一個推介。主菜就點咗Tagliatelle With Lobster & Roasted Yellow Chicken，龍蝦扁麵味道偏清新，未去令我好深刻，而扁麵相對平時食到嘅較粗身，但龍蝦肉肉質係可以的，夠彈牙都鮮甜。相比之下，我哋都比較喜歡佢嘅烤黃油雞，表面烤到焦脆，切開係有肉汁流出，肉質非常嫩滑，連雞胸嘅位置都煮得啱啱好，都係嫩嫩的！Lunch set嘅甜品我哋就揀咗二人份嘅Hot Chocolate Moelleux，即係朱古力心太軟。朱古力流心嘅程度恰到好處，仲有朱古力夠香滑，配埋香濃牛奶嘅牛奶味雪糕，就係永遠嘅絕配。Happy weekend!…Read More
