My last time here almost a year ago was absolutely disappointment on all aspects starting from food to services. I came here today without much hope or expectation. It would be fair to say that one's expectation will be exceeded easier when there isn't much to look forward to. The seasonal menu was a game menu, my past few experience with ordering game tasting menus in Hong Kong has not been too good, so I've decided to go a la carte this time instead. Amuse bouche was this little mushroom cream

Nothing too surprising, had the same thing last year.
First course I ordered was a steak tartare, in fact I do find it quite tough to get a good steak tartare in Hong Kong, either too salty or not well seasoned. This one is quite balanced as everything is quite nice and just right. However the chips are absolutely terrible and it tastes like expired kalabee, this is pretty bad for a restaurant like this.
The main course I ordered a kurabuta pork chop, it was marvelous, pink in the middle it's juicy and the sauce that comes with the dish is also very good. The caramelized sweet corn side that comes with it also made this an unforgettable dish. I liked it very much.
I think it's much better than last time when I came. Hopefully it's just because the chef had a rough evening last time! It's getting more and more difficult to find stable and consistent fine food in Hong Kong. Causette from the same operator deteriorated vastly in the past two years its quite a pity.
Anyways, bar + grill is working out well it seems and I'd definitely come again.
