Sky Bar has its romantic ambience and I revisited it with a long-lost friend. Meeting a long-lost friend is romantic, isn’t it? I recommend visiting in the evening on a sunny day for the aerial view of Mongkok under the beautiful sky of changing colour. Food wise? Here comes a quick review. Roasted Pumpkin Soup with Crab Meat, priced $78. As a pumpkin lover, I appreciate the sweet, creamy and thick soup base. Pan-Seared Sous-Vide Hokkaido Scallops with Carrot Puree & Wild Mushrooms, priced $198

Pan-Seared Sous-Vide Hokkaido Scallops with Carrot Puree & Wild Mushrooms, priced $198. Scallops are not my favourite food, but I'm glad to share them with friends. Delicate presentation it is.
Lava Mozzarella and Tomatoes, priced $128. Mozzarella and tomatoes are two of my favourite. As a healthier cheese option, mozzarella is relatively low in fat and calories. It strikes a perfect balance of milky, grassy, and floral notes. Again, lovely plating of red and yellow-orange tomatoes. Fun fact: the color of tomatoes is genetic and encoded in the ancestry. It is the result of both the pigments in the tomatoes skin and the color the interior. Cheese and tomatoes always pair well. Sad to say, I can’t really tell the taste difference between the red vs yellow-orange tomatoes.
Strozzapreti with Mushrooms, Chorizo & Parmigiano-Reggiano, priced $188. Strozzapreti seems to be a less common type of pasta, and I like the combination of the sides, so I gave it a try. Made with a mixture of all-purpose and semolina flours, the 3-inches long rope-like strozzapreti gets its distinctive shape from a twisting motion. There is a small central channel for the sauce to cling to. It gives a rich flavor together with the spicy smoky chorizo and hard dry Parmigiano-Reggiano.
P.s. Set dinner at around $500 is available.
