My friend and I had been strolling along Sheung Wan under the big boiling sun and it occurred to us that we may want something Western to share amongst us. There was actually a number of restaurants to choose from but we decided to give this a shot because of the fancy looking facade. Once we stepped foot in the restaurant, the friendly staff invited us in, the lights and music also immediately put us in a good mood to just sit down and relax. Their captivating layout was also what caught our attention - the paintings, vinyl discs, and wine cupboard really did give this place an artistic vibe. What’s better were their plates and utensils which really made the atmosphere Victorian-esque. 
Once we got seated, they offered us two cups of iced cold water which totally quenched our thirst.   Although they didn’t have a big menu, all their items looked equally interesting to us and it was difficult for us to decide on one. For easier sharing, we finally picked the Black Truffle Rib-Eye Sandwich ($135), served with French fries. Seeing that we had two people, the staff kindly asked if we wanted to have the sandwich halved and we gladly accepted the offer. It didn’t take long until this sizzling dish got delivered to our table. Wow, what a sight, we were impressed by the rib eye, tasted super juicy, tender and almost like hand pulled. The Italian black truffle aioli and melted cheddar cheese gave the sandwich even an extra kick. I normally don’t go for French Baguette for fear it would taste too hard, though, it was a pleasant surprise that they managed to give the Baguette a crispy toast and it also gave the black truffle rib eye a perfect spin. 

The fries were served with tomato sauce on a mini flowery plate, it was a cute design and I have only come across tomato sauce served in a ramekin which sometimes can make it difficult to dip your fries in. The fries were well-salted and crunchy, serving as a great addition to the Baguette. Although the fries may look ordinary to you, they were one of the best we had ever tried and I’m sure you will make the same verdict upon trying. The ambient music playing in the background rendering us staying there for a little longer cause we were hooked to the cozy atmosphere. We had a great meal there and next time we will come back for their pastas and wholesome bowls, or there Baguette or burgers even. So clutched!
