地方細，唔乾淨，坐得好唔舒服。服務員態度其差，十問九唔應。吃完快快趕人走。食物麻麻，真係好一般，一啲都唔值。隔離個兩間都好d。以後都唔會再去，簡直係貼錢買難受。…Read More

Friend of mine was lucky enough to secure a booking and were quite excited to see what the hype is all about.First, a word about service...I know the restaurant is relatively new but logistics was really sub-standard.  Upon providing my reservation details, the staff explained to me that since I am actually considered a "walk-ins" (by virtue of them having lost my reservation details) I would have to wait for table...Once seated, I moved on and studied the menu which looked interesting enough.  The burger I ordered arrived looking presentable, although I was rather disappointed upon tasting it.  For close to $200 a burger, quality of meat used was pretty poor.  Also it did not help that they overcooked the meat.The polenta chips were pretty but were served to me cold.  Not the most appetising.Service, logistics and perhaps even quality of cooking I believe may be improve with time, but probably not the quality of food if the restaurant skimps on quality of materials.  Not sure I can be convinced to come back another time.   …Read More

In search of a nice lunchspot other than the usual suspects in Central/Admiralty and thought I would give this a try after reading some good reviews.I am usually fairly hard to please, but was pleasantly surprised by the quality at Akrame (didn't realise it was a Michelin until afterwards).They do a surprise menu, so you can only choose whether you would like a 3-course (fish or meat main) or 4-course (fish and meat) meal.  I went for the 3-course (meat).The mouche bouche was a little disappointing (both aesthestically and portion-wise). Starter was a decent caviar, radish soup.  Nice kick in terms of taste despite how thin the soup base was.  Hats-off to the chef who came out to pour the soup!Was still not quite convinced after the starter, but they got me as soon as I cut into the duck breast in the main course.  The duck breast was soft, succulent, and cooked to perfection. The taste of the turnips on the side were a little overwhelming for me but some may find it refreshing to balance duck.The potato mousse was light and fluffy.  Well-made.I was just about to wonder whether I needed to grab a burger to fill my stomach after the "fine-dining" meal when the real surprise came.  Two sets of deserts that were perfectly made and balanced.  Not to mention the final complimentary chocolates to complete the meal.  I walked out of the restaurant not fully satisfied, physically and mentally.Dear chef, you've got me.  Would definitely come again.…Read More

新年同朋友慶祝想找特別點的吃，有人介紹老掌櫃。聽到大角嘴怕遠，所以搭的士。原來從佐敦到餐廳都不用十分鐘，很方便。叫了條桂花魚,汁香，魚ok不過成$188條我想下次會試條下$88松子魚係唔係分別咁大。片皮鴨幾好味，肉圓好香，不過成餐最開心係食個豆沙窩餅，皮薄鬆脆。五個餸（連魚）唔駛$500，味道好，抵食。會再試。  …Read More

Lunch貪近，多人不過聽同事講通常唔會等太耐。試咗一籠小龍包，一般（湯幾好味，不過肉硬了點）。溫吞麵d溫吞幾鮮，麵剛好。烤麩入味。排骨太油，下次唔會再點。食lunch算係方便嘅選擇。…Read More
