Walked by this place last week was shocked to see a molecular gastronomy early bird tasting menu for HKD170, so made a booking with friends to try it out.It was 6 courses (early bird doesn't include dessert or drinks), and they were interesting. After eating the first few courses we were worried that we wouldn't be full. However the last course (beef Paella) was quite filling.Some things to note.

It was 6 courses (early bird doesn't include dessert or drinks), and they were interesting. After eating the first few courses we were worried that we wouldn't be full. However the last course (beef Paella) was quite filling.
Some things to note. The air-conditioning is very cold in the middle seats (but are also the seats with the best view of the chef cooking).
Pros: it was interesting, and fun to watch the chef cook. price is definitely attractive for molecular gastronomy.
Cons: Service. The chef was okay, but he needs to speak up more instead of waiting to answer questions.
The service of the waitresses was pretty much non-existent. We asked for a recommendation for the drinks, and
weren't offered any. We then asked for which drinks were a bit sweet, and again no suggestion. We had to try a 3rd time and ask which ones were the most popular...before we got a response. The waitress was also a bit rude when we wanted to pay the bill separately (since not all of us ordered drinks or dessert).
Summary: if you're a casual diner than its worth going once because of the price, but not worth going again because of the service (the food was okay but it isn't good enough to make up for the service quality). If you're a serious foodie you'll come away disappointed.
