A new Italian Resturant in CWBNestled in CWB, a so-called Michelin-starred restaurant was opened out of the blue this year. This is a satisfying though disappointing trip.
Not only a zealot of the Italian cuisine, but also enthusiast of Michelin-Starred restaurant and I was really looking for it. However, after checking up, I just realised that it is not Michelin-Starred, they only hired a chef who worked at a Michelin-Starred restaurant and I was totally mislead
unbelievable!!The lunch set serves 3 dishes priced at HK$700, including Appetizer, Main dish and Dessert. Everything was good just because it entirely duplicated from Bombana
, given that their Executive Chef Keith Yam of Giacomo had solid work experience there. I think this “newly opened “restaurant at least need some innovations, otherwise I would just treat this restaurant as a branch of Bombana.Sea urchin trenette 
sea urchin is not bad, fresh and creamy. but the food is warm not hot, I think the pasta might not be freshly cooked and it’s overall taste is too flat.Extra charged Coffee Tea

I was quite shocked when I was told that the coffee tea has to be charged additionally which should be normally included in the set.The ambience / dining environment was good but not good enough, the decorations is too old fashioned and doesn’t look like a high class restaurant.
The tableware is pre-owned.

Last but not least, a concept has to be said: There’s no such thing as a Michelin-starred chef. Having worked in a Michelin-starred restaurant doesn’t make one a Michelin-starred chef.The restaurant is not very bad but it is just overpriced, I am not considering to come again currently until it has made some improvements.…Read More
