記得去年的這個時候,小弟為記念與太座的週年結婚午宴而向她寫了一封信。事隔一年,今年已是第七個年頭了....小弟今次倒是選擇歸向平淡,捨棄了那種偏向做作而肉麻的筆觸,改而用一個較平實的方法去記下這一道午餐盛宴....

地點選了我倆皆一直心儀但又一路未有緣試過的"Amber"。這一所無論是在香港甚至於世界都被視為其中一間best restaurant的店子,相信對所有的饞嘴人或是老饕都可說是一個聖地來的....

毫不怠慢地預早了差不多一個月前便訂了檯。對待這一類的餐廳來講自不然是一個必然要做的動作,若然求求其其穿起T裇牛仔褲,貿貿然跑上的話就真的貽笑大方....

施施然地走進大廳內。環境可還是優雅的,而檯與檯之間空間也算是可以接受,不過事前也知道的,這裡的樓底相對起其他同級的餐廳來說是較為矮少,感覺上氣派是好像差了一點兒....

至於服務上當然是好得沒話說的 ---- 侍者全部都謙恭有禮,永遠在您需要他/她的時候便會出現,而且對各食材及餐酒上的認知也是瞭如指掌的,絕對是專業的水準....

我們選擇在星期天下午前往,原因乃在於每逢週末日這裡會提供wine pairing lunch,每一道菜都會配上各款的餐酒。在如此風光明媚的日子,與她一同邊淺酌邊享受美食,實在是美妙之至....

安頓好並花了不少時間參詳餐牌及點過菜後,侍者便端上令人看至目眩的麵包籃。挑了總共四種包類,分別為baguette、全麥薄脆片、橄欖包以及芝麻包....

在未吃之先已嗅到陣陣的麵粉香了。之後用手摸一下包身,是微暖的又不過熱,放進口裡溫度是剛剛好。四款包類當中個人覺得最特別是全麥脆片,厚度的確是薄得可以而又真的焗成脆卜卜,是比較少遇到的好作品。另外一提的是baguette是十分的外脆內軟,吃多幾件不停的encore也不是一件過份的事....

一如其他相同檔次的店子,伴麵包吃的牛油也有分鹽及無鹽的。這裡提供的兩者皆很滑溜,不過牛油香味稍覺就淡了一點未夠濃烈...

接著好幾道的amuse bouche也著實給了我們不少驚喜 ---- 蟹肉卷外皮極香脆而滲有蛋香,吃著有點像在嚐很薄脆的蛋卷。餡內的蟹肉毫不吝嗇夾著鮮甜之味及creamy的囗感。另外還可感受到有丁點的檸檬及柑橘的清香,的確甚美味令人欲罷不能....

炸豚肉球外皮金黃咬落鬆脆,樣子圓咕碌的甚帶動食慾。第一口吃下去時除了感到脆囗之外,第二個感覺便是內藏的醬汁是相當的熱燙及creamy。但繼續食下去卻好像未太感受到有豚肉的存在,就好像吞了一咲空氣進肚子....

接下來的鵝肝珍寶珠,相信有不少之前來過的朋友也會記得它那絕妙的滋味吧。在來之前早已從各食友的口中聽過它的大名了。現在得見其真身,賣相是極之討人喜歡,顏色看上去有點似我們舊時食的冰糖葫蘆一般。以紅菜頭及紅莓的汁包裹著鵝肝球,鵝肝固之然入囗軟滑豐腴十二分之滑溜;而外頭的紅菜頭汁入囗酸中帶少許甜因而消去了鵝肝本應有的膩滯。怪不得一向嚐肝之太太是越吃越開胃,頻說能否再encore呢.....此時我馬上沒好氣地道 : "您估依家真係食緊平常嗰D珍寶珠咩 ?"....

一人一道的Starter,一味Royal Cabanon Oyster served over pickled kyari cucumber jell-o, Greek"hung" yogurt, fresh green apple sorbet,蠔身細細只的甚creamy而飽滿鮮甜入喉滑嘟嘟,海水及金屬味相反是沒有預期中的濃烈。墊在底的是用上以日本甜酸胡瓜弄成的啫喱凍再加上乳酪醬汁及青蘋果雪芭,出來的效果自然是酸咪咪的非常清爽易入喉。配合著與此十分夾的蠔肉來食,試問一份又怎會夠吃 ?

至於Hokkaido Sea Urchin in a lobster jell-o with cauliflower caviar & crispy seaweed waffles就更是其一的鎮店之作。海膽固之然是頂級水準之作 ---- 顏色呈鮮橙黃已極能帶動食慾;再嚐之下只吃得一口軟滑鮮美,平常劣質uni帶來的甚麼腥怪味當然是一點也找不到;舖面的caviar咬一口底下便"卜"的一聲爆發在囗腔內,之後便是嚐到一嘴的鹹鮮;至於龍蝦果凍伴上椰菜花蓉的結果是一道軟香滑溜又鮮味的"配"菜,實在有心思又美味。試一下將海膽及果凍一同放在脆卜卜而又滿有海苔鮮香的薄脆waffle之上,感覺又是另一番風味。說老實話就真要我再付多$248大洋再來多一客,小弟也是甘心情願的奉上....

兩道令人期待的middle courses,太太選的是Australian abalone with black pepper & vinegar seasoned tomato compote braised then crisped oxtail。來自澳州的鮑魚切片放入口,質地軟淰無渣帶少許韌勁;醬汁是下了少許黑椒、醋及蕃茄熬成的,味道有少許酸而帶微辣自然就很令人開胃,與鮑魚片的味道及咬口也蠻匹配;置頂的還有切得非常細小的骰的牛尾肉,咬入口軟淰以外邊位還帶有少許筋甚具咬頭....

至於小弟的Duck foie gras ravioli, wild mushrooms & black tea consomme flaky bread roll with autumn truffle butter就是一味意念頗為創新大膽的菜。大膽的意念當然並不在於我們平常見的鴨肝雲吞而是源自那一口濃湯 --- 它竟是用了野菌加上我們中國的普洱茶熬出來的一個湯,湯的色水十分清澈而又有濃郁菇香。有了普洱茶在內的話自然很容易便消去了鴨肝應存的膩口,確是一個不錯的fusion意念;至於雲吞本身的皮比想像中的厚及煙韌;鴨肝蓉食落也豐腴軟香....不過貪心的我,總是覺得鴨肝量太少了....

那樣子賣相似極鳥結糖的松露菌牛油,用來塗在焗得超脆超flaky的豬仔包上,光吃這個已是一道極好的伴菜....

看到menu上有一道平時極少碰到的黃麋肉,這一類的野味在如此頂級的餐廳內吃自然可令人放心的細心品嚐。肉用刀輕輕一切便斷開,炆煑得是相當的夠火喉;肉味方面是一如所料的非常有個性,帶著頗濃烈野味應有的羶香,對個人而言這方面是接受的,不過在肉質上的偏粗及嚡的這個我就未太能習慣了;至於置頂的foie gras就真的軟滑甘香得沒話說;醬汁方面師傅似乎下了芹菜及黑杏鮑菇入去熬,入囗除了有菇香外亦帶有肉的濃郁韻味。Side dish盛上的是下了巴馬臣芝士及牛油下去炒成的疙瘩。口感creamy有牛油香偏黏黏的,疙瘩質也煙煙韌韌在嗦盡醬汁後是極惹味 (雖然吃多幾口後就有點膩了)....

太太的手釣青鱈魚吃起來比普通的cod fish質感來得粗但魚味卻是濃郁得多。最特別的是掌勺的將魚皮去掉後轉而舖上一層sour dough bread後再炸香。太太說若不是侍者提醒的話還以為這是真的魚皮呢....不過小弟吃過後倒覺得真魚皮仍是較好吃,原因在於魚皮那種獨有的脆夾雜著魚油的味覺是齋齋哋的sour dough bread所無法取代的。圍著碟邊的是好幾顆切成小圓柱狀的新薯。最有心思是置於薯頂上的是一小粒的鳥蛤,它的存在當堂便賦與本身淡淡的薯肉多了一份甜鮮....

吃至此處,差不多要吃點甜食來中和一下了。印象中是首次嚐藍莓味的馬卡龍。擺入口後一如所料是爆甜的,質地是相當的黏實至甚為黐牙。個人老實說是對之並無大愛 (這當然不太與店方有關的事,只是我個人不喜歡吃馬卡龍而已);反而那荔枝雪芭口感輕盈雪得帶碎冰也有濃烈的荔枝味及香。對我來說這才是整碟的靈魂....

Peruvian mango & vanilla ricepudding, coconut gel, mango & passion fruit sorbet是一道擺位甚存心思也很精緻的甜食。身為主角的雲呢嗱布甸的滑溜度是一如所料的高而最特別的是在布甸內滲入了不少的米粒令咬勁增添了不少,太太吃後亦大呼新奇;置頂的用上秘魯芒菓做的sorbet囗感滑而濃郁;至於散在四周的椰子啫喱及熱情果雪芭反而因量太少因而嗜不出清楚其味,但夾層中的焦糖脆片卻是脆卜卜又惹甜.....

Ranked No. 24 on S. Pellegrino's "World's 50 Best Restaurants", Amber is the only restaurant in Hong Kong to be included on the prestigious list. Located in the Landmark Mandarin Oriental with culinary director Richard Ekkebus at the helm, the restaurant serves French classics with modern twists that takes advantage of Hong Kong's unique position at a global crossroads. I couldn't believe that I still haven't been to Amber yet so I had to rectify the situation by making a reservation for lunch.

I couldn't believe that I still haven't been to Amber yet so I had to rectify the situation by making a reservation for lunch. The main dining room was smaller than I'd imagined with warm amber color hues and thousands of bronze rods suspended from the ceiling. The lunch set starts from $548 for 3-courses to $748 for 4 courses.
We were presented with a trio of amuse bouches first starting with a crab crispy roll which was quite refreshing to eat with its light and acidic flavors.

The foie gras lollipop was both a delight to look at with its playful presentation and delectable to devour with a fruity raspberry coating. The duck liver pate was rich and smooth which was carefully balanced by the tartness of the outer layer.

We were instructed to eat the pork croquette in a bite so we dutifully obeyed by tipping the cup of fried goodness into our mouths. Our mouths were filled immediately with a rich and creamy filling which was a tad salty actually.

Hokkaido Sea Urchin (5/5) - for my starter, I ordered Amber's signature dish of Hokkaido Sea Urchin which required a $248 supplement. The dish looked like a work of art with the caviar carefully shaped on top of sea urchin, lobster jello and cauliflower cream while encased in a ceramic sea urchin shell. Several pieces of crispy seaweed waffles came with the dish as well with the recommendation to take alternating bites between the two. The dish was simply mind-blowing with its different layers of delicate flavors and textures which all managed to come together perfectly to create this heavenly combo!

Aubergine (5/5) - J's starter looked like it was ready for spring with its bright and colorful appearance! With bell pepper jello, tomato confit, pickled onions, brined lemon, and sorrel, I felt like I was tasting a garden with 10 times the intensity as each ingredient had been carefully selected and flavored.

Line Caught Pink Seabream (4/5) - the fish was cooked with fragrant spices and paired with orange juice caramelized heirloom carrots. The seabream was cooked perfectly while the sauce was pleasant to taste with a zesty spin to it. The little cubes of orange fruits were a nice surprise to bite into as well.

Lamb from the Pyrenees (5/5) - braised and pulled, the lamb was prepared crepinette style in a delicate clear casing along with bayaldi vegetables. Served with aubergine, black garlic and tomato, the lamb was succulent and scrumptious while the accompanying sauces enhanced the flavors of the lamb with its intensity!

Last but not least, the petit fours arrived in a elegant 3-layered metallic case with 6 different choices. Sadly they were the most disappointing aspect of our meal as most were overly sweet and coarsely made, but we're willing to overlook this last part in light of the amazingly delicious food we had before this.

Amber demonstrated care and thoughtfulness they put into their food with its delightfully imaginative flavors and carefully chosen ingredients - and even down to the plates they used to present the food in. While I was initially worried that the meal would take a long time, it turned out that I had nothing to worry about as the service was quick and prompt to keep up with the fast-paced lifestyle in Hong Kong. As the chef refreshes the menu every 3 months, you can bet that we will be back again to dine at Amber soon!

Amuse Bouche- Crab Meat Stuffed Poppers (Left)- These stuffed cheesy mini bite sized poppers were a crunchy and crabby (get it?) delight!
Foie Gras Lollipops (Right) These were surprisingly DELICIOUS. A) I do not like foie gras. B) I do NOT like foie gras. However, this… I liked. A Raspberry candy coating wrapped the juicy, smooth and rich foie gras.

Looked nothing like the above. The presentation in Amber is amazing. Those colorful pieces are all a blend of vegetable ratatouille blend. My cod was over cooked and not as juicy or saucy as I was hoping for. A little bland an under seasoned…but I’ll give it to them with the presentation…

Trio of amuse bouche. The ever famous foie gras lollipop covered in beetroot jelly, enjoying the smooth liver parfait is always an eye-closing moment. Crab rolls with a light citrus tang and my favourite pork croquette where a fried breaded shell releases a gush of rich porky liquid.

My foie gras ravioli in wild mushroom and tea consomme was quite ordinary. An earthy broth full of diced cep mushrooms with two tiny pasta parcels filled with foie gras. If I could pick again, I would choose the abalone instead. The flaky roll it came with was quite nice where the truffle butter came wrapped like a little candy in rice paper. It tasted more cheesy than buttery though and it was a little awkward to bite through the rice paper neatly without it sticking to your lips.

The bresse pigeon looked somewhat unappealing on the plate, a brown ovoid dome of blended pigeon and foie gras all molded over toast. He saved the last bite for me, and I wish he had let me try it earlier =.= Don't judge its appearance as it had really luscious gamey flavours that was just delicious.

I had the venison. Braised till it was so soft, that you could just poke to apart with your fork. Vension is naturally gamey so paired with the strong salty flavours of the sauce it just matched really well. Oh and if you are lucky you will find a bullet in your meat
The side of cheesy spatzle was just comfort food at its best with the luxury of autumn truffle added to it, perfect for a carb lover like me~

A small portion of poached pear in spiced red wine with olive oil caviar (bottom left). The flavour of the wine is not too strong infusing a slight tartness and sweetness to the soft pear. The bursts of olive oil were a little odd though. Poached fruit is of course a wintery dessert, but it's not something I would usually pick unless it was more indulgent as in surrounded by pastry or cream. 

I liked the cheesecake semi-freddo, although it tasted more like vanilla than cheese. Wrapped in the crispy tuile it gave a little texture to the solid creaminess (bottom right).

Before our last set dessert, the team at Amber surprised us with a mille-fieulle for our anniversay! It was so nice of them, not to mention how delicious it was~ Buttery layers of crunchy pasty, filled with sweet creme patisserie and fresh raspberries. So so good!

After the amazing pastry, the last dessert was a little flat for me. Chocolate and coconut, like a bounty bar. Although I do love chocolate, the Jivara chocolate creme was just not chocolatey enough.

Don't forget the petit fours~ a three layered tin revealing twelve goodies. I didn't have much as I was already pretty high on sugar, but the marron glace was lovely, liquered chestnut covered in a sugar glaze...

慶祝姐姐生日,今年挑了文華東方的Amber一嚐它的周末午餐

環境地點

一直都以為香港的文華東方只有一間,就是常經過干諾道中看到的那間,怎料原來還有一間叫置地文華的在皇后大道那邊,而Amber就在後者之中,駕車前往需要轉入內街中才能到達;中環的車路不好走,乘地鐵或叮叮會比駕車更容易到達!

這個Wine Lunch包含了四杯餐酒,會按上菜順序送上:餐前一杯香檳,頭盤及前菜各一杯白酒,主菜則可在2款紅酒中選一款;老實說,雖然我不會品酒,但也覺得這個wine lunch包了4杯酒是很超值!而如果不想喝酒,則可以換成四杯不含酒精的Mocktail

是日餐廳有四款小麵包可供添食:麵包脆片、小法包、芝麻包及橄欖包,同時提供了淡味、咸味兩種牛油和黑醋油;四款小麵包都很有水準,每款都很可口,即使不是燙暖的,質感跟口感都還是很棒!麵包脆片的做法很有心思,是把麵包雪到凍硬後,切成薄片再烤烘,吃起來非常香脆美味!小法包鬆脆可口,抹上咸牛油後更添美味!芝麻包則較為硬身,充滿濃郁的芝麻香味;橄欖包是最香酥鬆軟的包,橄欖味道同樣相當濃郁!

是日第一個驚喜於送上餐前小食時出現:原來鵝肝珍寶珠是包含在小食之內!本來我們還在討論要加錢單點時,看到侍應生送上來時,真是超surprise! XD

。龍蟹肉脆卷 - 香脆的外皮內卷著鮮香美味的龍蟹肉內餡;外型小巧可愛,咬下去十分酥脆,肉餡味道則咸香可口,略帶一點creamy,小小的一道餐前小吃已為我們帶來味覺上的第一個驚喜!

。鵝肝珍寶珠 - 以覆盆子脆糖漿包裹著鵝肝球,外型討好有趣;鵝肝球幼滑軟實無筋,質感無比細膩;入口即溶的鵝肝肝味濃郁,含在口中細慢品味,真是頂級的美味與頂級的享受 >o<~~~~~ 糖漿薄脆的軟甜口味能略為消弭肝味的膩滯感,使其能更恰如其分的作為餐前小吃;吃完一顆,令人感覺既滿足又開心!

。豚肉炸球 - 渾圓小巧的炸球,內裡是混入肉碎的餡料,炸球新鮮燙熱,香口鬆軟充滿肉汁,也很好吃!

頭盤 - saba mackerel (油醃鯖魚)

非常美味可口的一道頭盤,伴碟的墨黑麵包脆片是以墨汁上色後再烤脆,極具心思;粉嫩煙紅的鯖魚肉片以油漬醃過,底層佐以調味過的醋酸蕃茄乾及肉煮濃汁,味道酸香開胃,魚肉略帶腥香,生的魚肉片充滿彈性與嚼勁,嘴嚼時魚脂香味在口腔中散出來,味道令人陶醉

擺盤精巧漂亮、色彩配搭出色的一道前菜!田雞腿以酥皮絲包裹後脆炸,以雜香料炒菇及香芹沙巴雍醬及雞肉濃汁伴碟;沙巴雍口感特殊,醬汁味道濃淡適中,田雞腿酥脆香口,內裡肉質滑嫩,而伴碟的雜菇菇味濃郁美味,為整道菜色再加一分

前菜 - duck foie gras (鴨肝雲吞湯)

此道前菜的亮點來自當中的鴨肝雲吞,真的不得不說,這家餐廳的鴨/鵝肝真的做得相當美味,口感跟味道都是無可挑剔的!牛肝菌和普洱茶煮成的湯底,味道帶點中式feel,不過不失;旁伴的還有兩片小巧的油酥餅卷及松露牛油,餅卷香脆,牛油香滑,都不錯吃;吃至鴨肝雲吞,又是另一驚喜!原本看它只是鴨肝,不是鵝肝,心諗應該也會"差幾皮",怎料一吃之下,我們三人都不約而同驚嘆出來:"哇!咁好食既!? o_O !!!" 真的不得了!雖是鴨肝,但肝味的濃郁與豐腴滋味跟鵝肝一點差別也沒有,質感也是一貫的幼滑無筋,真的很正!!

主菜 - line caught seabass (香煎鱸魚)

濃淡度較為適中的一款主菜;香煎野生鱸魚伴以不同色彩的有機胡蘿蔔,而醬汁則以焦糖、橙、魚湯及胡蘿蔔煮成;鱸魚肉質軟嫩,雖然香煎過後變得較為香口,但魚肉味道還是略淡,幸好煮汁味道調配得宜,酸中帶甜,令菜色味道變得更為可口!

主菜 - french wild venison (濃汁燉鹿肉鵝肝 配芝士麵疙瘩)

極至濃味的主菜,野鹿肉伴以多種野菜野菌燉至味道變濃、肉質變軟,旁伴的還有一碗份量不少的麵疙瘩,麵疙瘩口感煙韌彈牙,以鴨肝、喇叭菌、松露和parmesan芝士煮汁調味,味道調配得相當不錯!先吃的是鹿肉上放著的那塊香煎鵝肝,鵝肝果然還是一貫的幼滑滋味、入口溶化!下方的鹿肉則已經燉至徹底軟爛,用叉子輕輕一壓已經可以壓散;鹿肉味道很濃,再加上像精華般濃稠的肉汁,味道是濃得過頭了!這時再把伴旁的芝士麵疙瘩拿過來伴吃,味道相對單一淡味的麵疙瘩正好能把鹿肉那濃過頭的味道調淡,平衡了菜色的口味,也豐富了整體的口感和層次,也是令人相當滿意的一道菜!

吃完主菜,其實我們已經很飽,但碌續上來的精美甜品,還是吸引得令我們一口又一口吃下去!三款甜品為:時令野莓及芝士蛋糕脆卷、紅酒煮梨及牛奶巧克力榛子棒,除了紅酒煮梨的酒味太重、像藥水味之外,另外兩款甜品都很好吃,不會太甜,份量也是剛好能盡情品味之餘又不會過飽!吃完這三道甜品後,真的真的感覺好滿足!

滿心滿足的感覺還沒有完,接下來繼續送上了Petit Fours小甜品和餐茶;餐茶我們選了regular coffee、latte和cappuccino,regular coffee是一整壺上的,可以續杯;咖啡味道薄弱,不濃烈,不帶酸,喝後沒有餘韻,較一般,其他兩款咖啡調配得也可以但也同樣咖啡味淡弱;Petit Fours以三層圓盒送上,還特地準備了慶生的賀牌給我們拍照留念 ^^;小甜點味道也不錯,只是有部份感覺過甜;侍應生最後還另外送了一盒Macaron給我們作為祝賀生日的小禮物,雖然只是點點心意,但還是令人有喜出望外之感,令我們對這一頓午餐真的感到十分滿意!

總括來說,Amber的食物味道很有水準,真的很令人滿意,餐廳地點也很便利,環境和服務也屬應有水準,雖然周末午餐的價位雖然略高,但還是推介一試的!

Gaddi's、Caprice、Amber評比

以三家餐廳來計,個人認為半島Gaddi's的環境佈置及設計是最漂亮的,服務上是最令人滿意的,在價位上也最相宜,但食物味道只屬還好,沒有令人很驚喜的感覺;而四季的Caprice的環境也很漂亮,夠氣派,在其他各方面上表現都很平均,屬預期中的應有水準但未令人深刻;置地文華東方的Amber則是三家中食物味道最出色的,令人滿意,雖然價位也較高,但由於是wine lunch,所以也算合理,不過在環境及服務上則遜了一籌

在眾多的米芝蓮星星店中, 其實有不少也是在To-eat list良久的, 這次吃的是米芝蓮的二星星店---Amber, 就是在置地文華東方酒店的, 剛進門是帶有幾分神秘感, 在路過幾間VIP房間後, 也終於到達了用餐的地點, 是一個比想像中小一點的大廳, 天花上掛了一密密麻麻一跟跟垂直的裝飾品, 其實我個人就是不太喜歡, 就感覺樓底因此而變矮了。
跟其他的法式高級 餐廳不一樣, 就感覺走的不怎麼是浪漫的情調, 倒是比較輕鬆相聚, 也頗為適合朋友聚會。點的是tasing menu (Degustation menu), 有8道菜, $1,888,其實已經包括了Amber的signature dish, 其實真不便宜, 而且就如不少餐廳的要求般---是要餐桌上每位也點的, 但聞說這個還是值得吃的, 那也就吃一次吧。
鵝肝珍寶珠: 這是Amber的名物,屬必試之選,而它最有趣的地方就是一入口味道不覺得怎樣,但三秒後便滲出了鵝肝的濃郁香氣,齒甲留香,果真是名物。

Langoustines: 賣相很出色, 是青綠色的優雅拼圖, 小龍蝦是經表面很輕的烤過, 內面還是生的, 實在相當新鮮, 黏黏滑滑的, 鮮味十足, 醬汁帶輕微的酸度, 也相當開胃, 光是喝醬汁也不會覺得過酸, 配小龍蝦吃的話則是更優, 誇張一點講是好吃到不行, 光是第一道菜已足以令人如斯滿意, 好戲在後頭就是了。

Hokkaido sea urchin: 海膽用的是一個貝殼型有一粒粒突出的全白小碗, 小匙則是珍珠色閃閃的, 光是賣相, 已是令人看得入迷的程度, 海膽上還鋪了魚子醬跟金萡, 滿是貴氣。海膽豐腴, 味道甘香, 表面還有一層似是啫哩的醬,提升海膽的味道, 實在好吃。這道菜還特意配薄如紙的脆片一塊吃, 嫌多吃幾口海膽太濃郁的話, 也能有效中和一下。

Tasmanian Salmon: 來自塔斯曼尼亞的三文魚, 在上菜前先用玻璃罩罩好, 再即場打開,淡淡的煙燻氣味隨之而來, 一旁還有新鮮的蘆筍和青瓜伴碟。魚肉做得相當出色, 煙燻的氣味相當輕柔, 令人毫不抗拒。而且三文魚的烹調時間真是極為恰到好處, 入口嫩滑無比, 甚至比上次在Whisk食到的還要出色, 簡單的三文魚也可煮出了不平凡, 強。

Duck foie gras: 鵝肝是法國菜中的名物,能在tasting menu中吃到它,也算是意料之內的事情,鵝肝煎得甘香,表面上還留有一格格網紋的煎痕,內面呈半融的狀態,入口幾乎不用花多少力氣嘴嚼,油膩感也不重,是不失望的。

Kagoshima wagyu beef: 主菜是和牛,假如不吃牛的話,也可安排一道魚,雖然愛吃牛,但還是想多試一款主菜,那就一牛一魚好了。魚的話其實也做得不錯,但相比和牛,確是比較遜色, 也許是魚的肉質不及牛的鮮明吧但其實配的沙律也是有趣的。這一道的和牛可以吃到兩個部位,我想應該是西冷跟牛仔骨吧,烤得約五成熟,油膩甘金之餘,肉香十 足,也是十分好吃。

Frech unpasteurized cheeses: 來到了芝士環節, 其實我還是初次吃到這個如此大堆頭的芝士車,有着各款的芝士,有清一點的,也有很濃味,久久氣味不散的濃芝士,可配一片片的麵包吃,可以淺嚐到四五款的芝 士,但可惜我是真的不太會欣賞。而在這個環節店方也對沒有特別愛吃芝士的客人有貼心的安排--可選另一款的甜品,印象中是一款蜜桃的甜點,味道很清新,而且能為待會相對下較濃味的甜品作準備。

Organic lemon: 這夜有兩道甜點,一酸一甜。先吃到的是檸檬卷,牛油小卷內釀了檸檬忌廉,表面有一塊四四方方的脆糖,在一旁的是紅莓雪芭,分隔線是meringue做的。檸檬小卷的脆筒跟檸檬忌廉很合拍,想要刺激味蕾的話則可吃紅莓雪芭。

Abinao 85% chocolate: 打了以酸為主的甜品作底,就可吃這個以朱古力為主的甜品了,朱古力味道濃郁,想感受冷熱交融的話,也可伴一旁的巧克力雪糕一塊吃,雪糕跟平常吃的不一樣,是朱古力味道遠濃於奶香,也值得推薦。

總的而言,這次吃到的晚餐水準十分滿意,幾乎是無可挑剔的,從第一道至最後一道幾乎沒有投訴的地方,以款式很豐富的Petite four作結,相當完滿。雖然價錢確是不便宜,應該是印象中吃過價錢最高的一餐,但質素來得如斯滿意,實在是很值得要吃。

I had this French meal 2 days after I came back from Paris to celebrate my best friend's birthday.  Honestly, I was kinda uncertain whether I would enjoy this meal since I have heard too many so-so comments on Amber.  Given their Michelin 2-star status, we still decided to give it a try.  It took us a little bit of time debating whether to have the "seasonal tasting menu" or "degustation menu", then we were told the only difference is the blue lobster.  As such, we decided to go with the "Degust

.

As usual, it started with the fresh bread loaf & welcome snacks - Amuse bouches.  I just remember the watermelon mix on the right but as far as I recalled, they were both good.  Certainly, we wouldn't miss the wine part, the corkage is $500/bottle then we were only allowed to bring one bottle for a party of 2.  Oh well, we could just live with the ground rule and behave

Langoustines - charred but kept raw, ricotta in a kyuri cucumber granny smith & jalapeno marinade:
I have so many langoustines in Sep, both in France & HK, the reason behind is the seasonality of them. This was an interesting cold dish, more like a cocktail and cold soup. Definitely, a pleasant appetizer to start with.

Corn soup & a deep fried "something":
I would have skipped this dish if this was an a-la-carte menu, please don’t get me wrong, I am not saying it’s not tasty but it’s just not as special/interesting than the others. Owing to the strong creamy base, this dish was indeed quite filling.  Besides, I am not so much into the deep fried food…just not a fan of this dish.

Hokkaido sea urchin in a langoustine jello with cauliflower, cavier crispy seaweed waffles:
I only had sea urchin (uni) twice so far, once in Canada & the other time at Tsukiji (筑地市场) in Tokyo. I don’t really like the taste of uni and I only found the one I tried in Tsukiji is acceptable. However, with the mix of cavier and langoustine jello to the uni, the whole thing was awesome. You still got the strong uni taste but it’s not fishy at all, nice combination after all.

Tasmanian Salmon - Confit & smoked "Perthuis" green asparagus, horse raddish cream & pickled kyuri cucumber:
I got to try the world renowned Balik salmon in Paris a month ago and I really enjoyed the texture from different parts of the salmon. At Amber, their Tasmanian salmon could also gave me the same level of contentment but in a different format. The salmon was very tender and I suggest to have each mouthful of salmon mixing with the fresh veggies (don’t forget the horse raddish cream), the slight sourly taste was a good stimuli to your taste bud. I have to applause the chef in using the raddish cream as a substitute to the regular caper.

Bordeaux lobster...swapped with Duck Foie Gras
Owing to humaneness concern, I stopped eating foie gras for quite some time and we requested the chef to change the dish for us. Here it came with the Bordeaux lobster specially made for us, this dish wasn’t really outstanding but it’s the flexibility and understanding from the chef that counts.

Kagoshima Wagyu beef - strip loin, oven roasted, puree of "forgotten" cevennes onion braised short ribs with seasonal green leaves
The 5-star dish of the night, no doubt! I always complain about the fattening texture of Wagyu beef and it just simply melts in your mouth without any taste (personally, I prefer intense beefy taste). But the strip loin & short ribs I tried that night was incredibly unbelievable. I was not “heavy” at all even after so many prior small dishes. I have to honor this dish and give a 5-thumbs up!!!

Petits Fours - since I was celebrating my friend's b-day, they put an extra slice of chocolate with her name on...then they gave her an extra box of macaron (the waiter reminded us that it's a different flavor from the petits Fours we got in the tray) as a birthday greeting.  Really sweet & thoughtful... 
题外话/补充资料: 1) Owing to the 12 photos limit here, I couldn't post the cheese trolley. The cheese was indeed very good with wide choices. Figs are in season so it's lovely to match the cheese with figs & wine!!! 2) They gave my friend a pack of 8 mini Rose flavored macaroons as her birthday present.

屢獲米芝蓮評為兩星級餐廳的 Amber,除了餐廳各方面的配套和食物質素無庸置疑外,更是全港首間設有朱古力品味師(Chocolate Sommelier)的餐廳,因此,無論是套餐還是單點的甜品,只要和朱古力有關,均是格外精采。Caramel Sorbet, Vanilla Sea Salt & Warm Chocolate Sauce - 店員於席前倒下熱朱古力醬,令球體朱古力外殼呈半溶化狀態,包裹在內焦糖雪芭和朱古力醬混和,傾瀉出來到器皿上,甚有意境,是視覺和味覺的星級享受。

法式料理的「Amuse Bouchée」,即是一小口的 off menu 小吃,有這裡經典的「Duck Foie Gras Lollipop」及「Crab Meat with Mayonnaise on Pastry」等。鴨肝珍寶珠的肝味濃郁幼滑,外面包著的是一層紅莓子啫喱及餅乾,酸酸咪咪正好中和了鴨肝的肥膩,這項小吃很棒,令舌尖留下很難忘的印象。至於炸蟹肉的造型沒有那麼亮麗,卻很鬆化,吃到蟹肉一絲絲,都好吃。頭盤來了,先來「Oyster Number 1 - served over pickled kyuri cucumber jell-O, greek 'hung' yogurt, fresh green apple sorbet」綠草如茵的外貌,生蠔混在青瓜啫喱及青蘋果雪芭內,味道是能嚐到生蠔天然的甜度,銅味不重的,青瓜味比蘋果味強,蠔也是全生,所以若你怕生或怕青草味就不要點這個,我本人就覺得味道很清新及對胃口。「Duck Foie Gras - 'ballotine', pink lady apples with vurjus purée of kabocha pumpkin,

繼續來鴨肝,這次配上厚多士,擺盤亦甚有心思,如藝術品一樣,不得不佩服廚師的心思。令人喜出望外的是那片薑多士,熱烘烘很鬆軟,用來塗鴨肝醬吃甚有特色。

三者之中我最喜歡比目魚,魚肉有如慢煮般滑溜,而且味道有點中式蒸魚的影子,那置底的醬汁能將魚鮮立體化,我推薦這項。
在享用正式甜品前,這裡有個「pre-dessert」的環節,是朱古力棒內裡包著雪糕,為甜點來個前奏,又是啡色一片。。。

As a pre birthday dinner celebration I was overwhelmed with dining choices- as a fan of the mandarin chain, we finally went with Amber which always proved to please its diners.
The decor remains one of my favourite, elegant and chic. 

We chose the degustation menu for the night. Being the picky eater I am, I informed the restuarant right on the spot of my dislikes for raw seafood to which they were understanding and swift to offer alternative dishes according to my tastes. I was very pleased indeed.

We started off with some very pleasing amouse bouches.

The desserts, yes you heard me right desserts! were all very pleasing. The lemon tart was complimented perfectly with its rasberry condiments. 
The soufflé was perfect. The chocolate was smooth and rich. definitely not to be missed.

Overall, beit a rather costly dining experience in my opinion it was worth every penny. The food and service was top notch and most importantly has never slipped on either account. 
If you are looking for a cosy, elegant non pretentious dining setting Amber or Mandarin Grill comes highly recommended.

是日內子生日,特意四處搜尋美食慶祝一番,最後在云云食肆中,揀選了連續數年也榮獲米芝蓮兩星的餐廳Amber。餐廳內環境優雅,簡單以洋燭及鮮花作裝飾,天花上放滿長短不一的銅條,為餐廳多添一份特色及時代感。用餐舒適度方面,二人座位餐桌寬敞舒適,但觀乎彼鄰六人的圓餐桌不比我們大很多,餐廳還是更適合三兩知己用餐談心 甫坐下後先點選餐酒飲料,因要駕車緣固,無緣品嚐一眾美酒佳釀。經店員介紹下,點了兩杯無酒精飲品,分別是Vignette wine country soda rose及Vignette wine country soda chardonnay,兩者皆為有氣梳打特飲,帶着自然清新花果香氣,甜酸有緻,不會奪去美食味道,不失為伴餐上佳推介。接下來是各式麵包,由店員親自端上供挑選。款式有四款,包括意大利橄欖包、長法包、全麥包及全麥脆片。橄欖包泛有清香橄欖味道,配上質優的橄欖油來吃當然是不二之選。長法包外層脆香,全麥包則輕盈鬆軟,味道清簡的麵包最合配上牛油來吃。全麥脆片的亮點當然是那份脆脆口感,咬下脆香有水準。吃過麵包,往後來都是當晚Degustation menu的各式美食。餐單由米芝蓮大廚R

甫坐下後先點選餐酒飲料,因要駕車緣固,無緣品嚐一眾美酒佳釀。經店員介紹下,點了兩杯無酒精飲品,分別是Vignette wine country soda roseVignette wine country soda chardonnay,兩者皆為有氣梳打特飲,帶着自然清新花果香氣,甜酸有緻,不會奪去美食味道,不失為伴餐上佳推介。

接下來是各式麵包,由店員親自端上供挑選。款式有四款,包括意大利橄欖包、長法包、全麥包及全麥脆片。橄欖包泛有清香橄欖味道,配上質優的橄欖油來吃當然是不二之選。長法包外層脆香,全麥包則輕盈鬆軟,味道清簡的麵包最合配上牛油來吃。全麥脆片的亮點當然是那份脆脆口感,咬下脆香有水準。

吃過麵包,往後來都是當晚Degustation menu的各式美食。餐單由米芝蓮大廚Richard Ekkebus訂製,內有八道菜,包含多款餐廳推介菜式,定價$1,888+10%一位,多配八款餐酒多加$1,388+10%。價錢當然不便宜,但食物質素絕對有保證。

Canapes - amuse bouches

餐前小點由廚師發辦,總共有五款精緻小吃。先來的是小巧青瓜粒,食味清爽,並以少許青橄欖作調味。小小青瓜粒上亦可見有裝飾,心思可見一斑。另一小吃是以矮瓜蓉弄製,賣相似在地上的蘑菇,相對上味道不算特別給引。

鵝肝珍寶珠是此店之名物,鮮紅的紅莓外層賣相奪目吸引,內裡包裹着鵝肝,質感幼滑如絲。一剛一柔之配搭創意十足,亦有效減少鵝肝那份膩口感覺。同一時間奉上的還有一小棵炸西班牙黑豚肉黃金球,成品熱辣不油膩,黃金外層薄而脆口,內層黑豚肉切碎配上忌廉汁,濃郁味道在口腔內爆發。

最後一款餐前小點是以嬌嫩露筍作主要食材的美食,先把嫩綠的露筍切碎,再混入蛋白忌廉泡沫當中,成品白滑美味。

Langoustines - charred but kept raw, ricotta in a kyuri cucumber granny smith & jalapene marinade

產自大西洋海域的小龍蝦,只輕輕烹煮表面,鎖住當中水份與鮮味,內裡保持原汁原味的新鮮蝦肉,味道十分甜美,口感彈牙,實在沒有甚麼可挑剔的地方。小龍蝦面上放上兩只青瓜卷,以青瓜切絲卷成,內層注滿芝士,同樣是清新濃郁的配搭。菜式周邊淋上青蘋果製成的醬汁,顏色青葱討好,味帶酸香。當中加添少許香葱,在平凡中帶點刺激。

Hokkaido sea urchin - in a langoustine jell-O with cauliflower, caviar crispy seaweed waffles

另一名物北海道海膽,賣相同樣精緻吸引。以貝殼作盛皿,珍珠色的匙羹,和食材非常匹配。海膽面上放上魚子醬及金箔,亦令菜式多添貴氣。味道方面,魚子醬鹹香濃郁,質感偏向腍身一類。海膽非常甘甜,很久未嚐過這種頂級貨式。以小龍蝦製成的啫厘醬味道同樣鮮甜,更能提升海膽的味道。菜式近底層有一層椰菜花蓉,質感很幼滑,食味同樣出色。

Tasmanian salmon - confit & smoked "perthuis" green asparagus, horseradish cream and picked kyuri cucumber

慢煮塔斯曼尼亞三文魚,半生熟的魚肉肉質嫩滑,上菜前再以蘋果木煙燻,為食材添加一份清香煙燻味道。在上菜的時候,魚塊仍用滿佈煙燻的玻璃器皿蓋着,以確保煙燻味道能更持久。店員在客人面前打開玻璃蓋,煙燻立刻緩緩溢出,既有視效,亦有臭覺刺激,可謂先聲奪人。伴碟的露筍及青瓜,質優美味,同樣經過細心挑選。

Duck foie gras - steamed then char grilled with victoria pineapple raw & charred "pencil" leek young coconut & black pepper gastrique

鵝(鴨)肝是法國菜的招牌之一,當然不能不出現吧!鴨肝先經蒸煮,以保嫩滑,再加以炭燒,多添一份香口感覺。實際上成品確是美味,入口柔軟,肝香豐腴。碟旁放上數點椰子蓉,雖和鴨肝的交互作用不算強烈,但味道倒是不錯。碟上另伴上一小件新鮮菠蘿,和鵝肝珍寶珠的紅莓外層一樣,以酸香甜味減卻鴨肝的膩口感。

Kagoshima wagyu beef - strip loin; oven roasted, puree of "forgotten" cevennes onion; braised short ribs with seasonal green leaves

主菜是來自鹿兒島的和牛,選取牛脊肉,雪花紋理細緻均勻。烤焗致約五成的熟度,肉色粉嫩,切下鬆軟多汁,肉香濃郁,淺嚐一件實在不夠滿足
。或許廚師亦了解這一點,在時令綠葉下還隱藏一小塊牛肋肉,以慢火燜製,肉味更濃,肉質紋理一絲絲清晰可見,咬下有質感,同樣美味!法式洋葱甜香有緻,作為伴菜實屬不錯之選。

French unpasteurized cheeses - matured by quatre homme

吃畢主菜,都差不多是吃甜品時間。甜品來之前先來一芝士車,有十多款芝士供選擇,嗜芝士之士必定雙目發光。不過,對於不太懂吃芝士的我來說,味道太濃烈的芝士實在受不了。在店員推介下,淺嚐了當中四款,名子已不記得了,雖說是輕盈款式,對我來說還是太強了,尤其有一款羊奶芝士,單是氣味而差不多把我香暈了

Organic lemon - tart "tubes", Italian meringue tarragon gel & rasberries

刺激過後,總是要調劑調劑,酸香檸檬卷絕對有洗滌味蕾之效。以檸檬忌廉置終酥脆撻皮卷中,甜脆酸滑交融。以蛋白忌廉製成的meringue tarragon gel,品嚐的是那份像棉花糖的口感。紅莓雪葩是當中最酸最醒胃之甜品,吃畢剛好能以最佳狀態品嚐甜度十足的朱古力甜品

Abinao 85% chocolate - soufflé with cacao sorbet

上一道甜品以酸為主,這道甜品則以甜為主。朱古力梳乎厘用上高質的Abinao黑朱古力,濃度85%,濃郁度十足。這兒的梳乎厘質感比一般吃的較為鬆身,近邊及面的部份還有入口即溶的感覺,但內心部份則較虛無。旁邊配上朱古力雪葩,同樣朱古力強度十足,但不同的當然是冰凍的感覺。一冷一熱,溫差大,層次享受亦大。

總括來說,Amber食材質佳美味,賣相技巧優越是無容置疑的。作為一間五星酒店的法國餐廳,服務當然也一流。店員數量多,有禮貌,對食材菜式有一定知識,上每道菜亦會略加簡介。因是晚為內子慶祝生日,餐廳最後亦送上一盒macaron作小禮物,做法貼心,值得加許!

論環境,五星級酒店法式餐廳的地方,怎說也是舒適;論服務,這裡更加是一等一的水平,無謂再加以挑剔,總之筆者是相當滿意。是晚,我們就吃了五款甜品,基本上是把招牌的都吃勻了。

首先,是Valencia Clementine Sorbet with Florentine biscuit, confit zest a semifreddo inspired after a ‘calisson de provence’,賣相無疑是精緻又吸引,呢個semifreddo,檻欖型,外形及質感均像法式的傳統糖果‘calisson de provence’,再配以柑橘味的雪葩,味道酸甜酸甜的,感覺清新,很美味的開端。

其次的William Pear & dried fruits poached with citrus, saffron & honey pistachio biscuit, greek yoghurt & orange blossom sorbet,也是以水果為主題,擺盤更有心思,更合我心。梨子切成不同形狀,有長形有圓形,用香料浸過,面頭放了點果味魚子醬,好睇又好吃;旁邊的乳酪,又是酸酸甜甜,卻是軟滑可口,墊底的開心果碎更添層次,整件事來得很誘人。

接著來有Nyangbo 68% chocolate ‘cremeux’, over a tonka bean ‘crème brulee’ crunchy caramelized nuts & bourbon vanilla ice-cream,顧名思義是以朱古力為重點的甜品。頂頭是朱古力薄片配上果仁,夾著香甜的雲尼拿雪糕,至於最底部,則是tonka bean crème brulee,就是碟子中間也是凹了下去,充分配合這甜品。中下層的質感自當是軟滑,香脆的薄片亦有助提升層次,而朱古力跟雲尼拿的組合,從來也就是絕配。

最後就是兩款口味的疏乎厘,個人對這款甜品並不太熱衷,總覺是視覺效果大於味道,不過,這裡的出品又幾好。Abinao 85% chocolate soufflé with cacao sorbet,即朱古力的口味,從來這甜品的賣相就是漲卜卜令人興奮,用上85%的朱古力製作,味道自然更為濃郁,跟旁邊的可可雪葩同吃,朱古力迷定必喜歡。

至於另一口味則是Grand Marnier soufflé served with ‘cuvee du cent cinquentenaire’ naval orange marmalade & ice-cream,質感跟剛才的同樣吸引,只是換上了香橙的味道,一樣歡喜。而在旁的是雪葩,味帶點酸,同是討我歡心,薄薄的脆片亦令我搣完一次又一次的去吃。

很愉快的甜品經驗,吃罷真是大滿足,體力也頓時充沛起來。

已經是第二次來這裡吃甜品,因為對於招牌 Souffle 的味道實在令人難以忘懷。因為晚餐時常 fully booked,加上價錢稍貴,所以我們每一次都是坐在 Reception 旁的梳化位,只吃甜品,不用預約也有位。食物Grand Marnier 是一種橙味 Brandy 的名稱,主角當然是橙味的 Souffle。Souffle 的色澤金黃,焗得很高,足足有2cm,只是有點不平衡,單看外表已很想吃了。一切下去,發覺質感十分鬆軟,比 Mousse 結實一點,但仍能保持濕潤。吃了一淡,橙味竟是非常的濃馥,和蛋白味融為一體,在口內良久不散,令人想再吃一淡。細問侍應下,原來這個 Grand Marnier 的蛋白要立刻打 (這個當然),裡面沒有加橙汁,只有 Grand Marnier,怪不得這個 Grand Marnier 拿這麼多𡘾。旁邊的杯子底部是加了Navel Orange Marmalade 的冰,上面有雲呢嗱雪糕和焦糖。Navel Orange 不太甜,也不太苦,裡面加了一些橙皮,令味道更加豐富。這甜品有點像個Parfait。底部是Yuzu Panna Cotta,柚子味有點人造,不

甜品有點像個Parfait。底部是Yuzu Panna Cotta,柚子味有點人造,不夠天然,但奶味很濃。Panna Cotta 中間是一塊 Jelly,做得很有心思。上面有來自西班牙的 malaga strawberry,很細粒,味道有點酸。中間是 Greek Yogurt Sorbet,有檸檬味,清甜好吃,可中和 Panna Cotta 的 heaviness。加上 Lemon Basil 的草香令甜品充滿 Berries 的風味。最上面的是威化,威化裡面是白朱古力,質感有點腍,但咬下去仍脆。整體味道配合得不錯,malaga strawberry 甜一點會更好。

環境十分舒適,梳化十分舒服。暗黃的燈光很有情調,很適合情侶拍拖。因為座位自成一角,所以並不是很嘈。

服務

侍應很耐心地講解甜品的材料和造法,值得一讚。Souffle 正如 menu 上所說,造了大約20分鐘。老婆很喜歡吃 Greek Yogurt Sorbet,侍應竟然另外給我們再添一份,很窩心。

寬別餐廳一段日子,再訪發覺環境沒有大變化,只有裝飾鮮花定期更換,當日火紅色的鮮花襯以金色流線形的天花吊飾,環境極美呢! 在如此環境下,慢慢享受延綿豐盛的味蕾驚喜(如來惠顧午餐或晚餐,除了頭盤、主菜、甜品外,食客還可品嚐到超卓精緻的amuse bouche,當中包括超經典、一試永世難忘的鵝肝珍寶珠;在享用正式甜品前更有pre-dessert的環節,最後再加上極端精美的petit fours,絕對是豐富滿足不得了!),實在是件樂事! 不過是日採訪重點是餐牌甜品,當日時間也有限,就只簡單試了三款甜品,不過也夠甜魔媽媽樂透了!

首先品嚐
William pear & dried fruits poached with citrus, saffron & honey pistachio biscuit, greek yoghurt & orange blossom sorbet ($160),成品用料清新健康,很富春日氣息,單看也已令人胃口大開! 個人超愛那冷凍的酸乳酪,底層混和了蜜糖開心果餅乾特別香甜豐富迷人,吃時如再拌以旁邊的番紅花乾粒,更覺奇香動人! 而梨子及乾果也被裝飾得美侖美奐,面層還加上精巧的果味魚子醬,實在很難令人不愛它!

當日非常有幸,品嚐到由大廚由推薦,不設散點、只於tasting menu中供應的
Amaho strawberry in a hibiscus infusion, olive oil sichuan pepper & cassis granite甜品的最面層是大廚精製的黑加倫子雪葩,為保持果味與冰感的平衡,冰含量很低、充滿果香的雪葩是上檯後才放上去,很快就會融解,所以要很快食用。

而底下果湯更是不得了,除了爆甜又多汁的士多啤梨,還有加了果醋啫喱、口味超清新的雜莓醬汁,再混上果味魚子醬,鮮甜清新實在無以復加! 如果說前一款是春日代表甜品, 這就是款令人無比驚艷的夏日透心涼之作!

吃了兩款清新又健康的甜品,最後也來一款帶有邪惡魔性的朱古力系甜品吧!
這款
Abinao 85% chocolate soufflé with cacao sorbet ($160),說實在也是媽媽的至愛推介:它打破了疏乎厘一陣風的傳統,質地比一般的疏乎厘棉密,同時口感極端滑溜;加上採用65%朱古力製作,口味也份外濃厚,但又不會令人覺得漏滯,那甘醇的朱古力味只會令人越吃越想吃下去,直到整個清光!

而同上的85%可可雪葩更是甘濃不可方物,但在用料精良下偏偏又甘順迷人,襯上朱古力餅碎及脆餅,更加美妙無窮,整個組合只可用完美來形容!

品嚐到優質美味甜品,那種快樂與滿足真是不同凡響;而當晚正正是照超聲波的大日子,醫生說較大機會是妹妹呢! 聽後兩口子均興奮無比,真是太幸福美滿的一天了~~~
