「Play」作为新一代酒吧新贵，是不少潮人明星的夜蒲集中地，他们的洋葱汤一向是我的心水「Satoru's Onion Soup」 在香港要找好吃的洋葱汤不算容易，「Play」的出品就很有法国 crossover 日本的风味，材料用上大量有机洋葱煲制，加入日本芝士及面包，汤鲜浓厚，芝士味特出。 「Nanban Chicken」 这炸鸡柳显出了食材与酱汁配搭的心思。啖啖肉的鸡柳，混上醋及他他汁，酸咪咪的调味令鸡肉整体吃下去不会太油腻，起了很好的平衡作用。 「Wagyu Mini Rice Burger」 米饭汉堡的馅料有和牛肉、生菜、洋葱等，有点米气下肚，喝酒也不怕伤胃气。 「Seafood Truffle Mini Pizza」 落足蟹肉、带子、虾肉、墨鱼、鲜茄及黑松露酱炮制，一出炉已香气四溢；它特别在放弃一般的 pizza 皮，选用了多士底，令吃起来口感更松脆。 「Crab Cake」 这小吃也受到我们一致好评，蟹饼炸得焦脆而不油，而且能吃到一丝丝蟹肉的真材实料。

Thanks to its single-floor 8,000 square foot size, PLAY is an immensely popular venue for events and parties. I can't even begin to name the numerous college parties that I have attended there during my university years... Recently, at a party held at PLAY, I tried out some of the club's new cocktails and snacks. The food turned out to be pretty decent, and I found out that the food menu at PLAY has actually been prepared by Chef Satoru Mukogawa from Sushi Kuu!(1) The "Nanban" Chicken ($80), deep fried chicken served with a tartar sauce, was gorgeously crispy. The chicken had been marinated in vinegar and had a refreshing hint of sour taste.(2) The Spider Roll ($120), with soft-shell crab and avocado wrapped in thin rice paper, was also an enjoyable snack. I wasn't sure if the sweet chilli sauce was the best match with it, but the roll was tasty on its own in any case.(3) The Crisp Cut "YAMAIMO" Fries ($75), made with Japanese mountain potatoes, were crunchy on the outside and deliciously mushy and soft in the middle. They were sprinkled with some curry powder which gave them extra flavours.(4) The Crab Cakes ($85) were made with Alaskan crab meat, and went well with the cocktails. They were excellently flavourful, and the tartar sauce was complementary with their taste.(5) The Wagyu Mini Rice Burger ($150) was my favourite dish that night. The minced wagyu beef was attractively fatty, and the slightly sticky rice was moreish.(6) My first glass of cocktail was a Lychee Martini ($110), which tasted of fresh, sweet lychee. There were also shot glass versions of the drink.(7) The bartender offered me a glass of Bourbon Smash, which was not on the menu (at the time I went anyway) and was made with fresh pineapple juice, Jack Daniel's and a dash of lemon juice. It was alcoholic, but was fruity and very easy to drink.After the food and drinks, a bunch of us gathered around PLAY's beloved pool tables, divided into two teams and played Flip Cup - I'm terrible at it...are you any good at this game?

来到兰桂坊，若你有夜蒲的习惯，应该对Play不会陌生。数个月前，获邀请出席了在Play举办的 AliveNotDead 五周年派对活动，这夜嘉宾既有吴彦祖，亦有不少名模名歌手如Lisa S及吴雨霏等，场面热闹。Play是不少名人喜爱到的地方，除了喝酒，原来食物也是不错的，餐牌菜式都是由寿司喰 Sushi Kuu的总厨Satoru Mukogawa所设计的，所以混入了不少日式元素。这夜就跟朋友来吃晚饭，来先来的是以D.P. Vintage 2003 Champagne调制的Cocktail，闻说这枝酒是他们独有，价值不便宜。Satoru's Onion Soup，$100，汤面层铺满芝士，烘焗后表面带少许微焦，芝士不会过厚，大多便会吃得很腻。汤内有不少洋葱，加上日本面包，汤味很甜，而更重要的是汤还十分热烫口的，令人喝得舒服，这个很好吃，推介一试。Spicy Avocado Tuna Gratin，$135，牛油果混上吞拿鱼、明太子及洋葱粒等，少许微辣，又有鱼肉的鲜味，加上牛油果口感油润，夹起来挺好吃。Nanban Chicken，$80，炸鸡肉质不会油腻，也不干身，鸡皮炸得香脆，跟上少许沙律酱及醋，酸酸的，也不错。Shrimp Flitter，$70，炸虾炸浆层不过厚，外层较为软，不过不够炸鸡的香脆好吃，有点腍身。但虾肉还是带点弹性，沾上他他汁及少许辣粉，微辣带酸，合我口味。Fried Tarakos Cheese Stick，$85，芝士条，以春卷脆皮包著芝士、鱼籽及薯仔，春卷皮不够香脆，带韧口，内里的芝士呈热融状态，少许微咸，但芝士份量不够多，感觉不太满足，若芝士份量再多些就更好。Wagyu Mini Rice Burger，$150，饭压过及煎，质感带点微脆，后夹著馅料有牛肉、生菜等，酱汁不太多，所以吃下有点干身。Seafood Truffle Mini Pizza，$150，迷你薄饼其实说是多士比较适合，以脆面包作底，馅料有带子、虾、鱿鱼，再伴上芝士及黑松露，松露味道幽香，芝士味道香浓，十分滋味。Creamy Seafood Truffle Pasta，$160，意粉散发浓郁的松露香，面条不够弹牙，口感一般，而意粉汁料亦有点稀稠，不过味道还好。最后是甜品Play's Panna Cotta，$55，奶冻口感滑溜，带点挺实，奶味浓郁，伴上酸酸的士多啤梨酱汁，也不错。Mini Parfait，$60，由焦糖布甸，加上香蕉片、脆脆片及雪糕组成，配搭正常的甜品，焦糖布甸味道香甜，伴上脆片以增加咬口。还有绿茶及云尼拿雪糕，柚子雪葩，$50，绿茶那款味道浓郁，带著回甘味，令人喜爱，所以也多点一客。整体食物比想像中的好，个人喜爱这里的洋葱汤，来这里的也可试试。
