My friend who's an editor in a hk online magazine took me to an organic menu tasting at Red Soho. Since I am a vegetarian I tried 3 salads and she had the meat-dishes. The Roasted Organic Beetroot with Herb Salad & Goats Cheese ($98) came as a perfect 1st dish. Not only is it fresh, well-flavored and seasoned but also extremely interesting. Not everyone is a big fan of beetroot but their yellow beetroot may change your mind. At first we were very curious about the boiled yellow pepper alike veggie but we found out that it's a special kind of beetroot. It tasted like sweet potato with a clean, light and fresh flavor, yet its texture crunchy. Superb!We also tried their Organic Golden Figs with Pear Tomato, Asparagus , Lettuce & Passion fruit Dressing ($98). Personally I am a big fan of figs and passion fruits and I like the texture of seeds mixed with soft tomato and asparagus. Probably because the figs and passion fruits were all organic, their sweet and sour taste was not overwhelming like they could do sometimes, especially for regular figs.If you prefer something more fruity and adventurous, the Organic Golden Watermelon Salad with Heirloom Tomato, Baby Lettuce, Red Onion & Feta Cheese ($128) may be you cup of tea. Unlike ordinary red watermelon, the golden watermelon was less sugary and crunchier. This contrasted the texture of heirloom tomatoes which was starchier than regular tomatoes. Although the creamy taste of the tomato could be too funky for some people, heirloom tomatoes have become increasingly popular for its health benefits. And since it's not readily available it was still quite an interesting experience to try it.My friend also tried other organic main course dishes Organic Linguine with grilled Chicken Breast, Chili, Basil & Olive oil ($138), Scottish Organic Salmon Fillet with with Barley Salad & Lemon Mint Dressing ($188) and Braised Organic Beef Cheek with Organic Baby Carrot, New Potato & White Radish ($198).

二月中旬蛇王芬第四回合后，同几位食友来到soho饮杯，继续未完的话题，食友Franco说有相熟酒吧，价钱不会收贵，那就却之不恭了。气氛不错，大红灯下的好一个Red的酒吧，一行人霸占了张小台，是夜不能多饮了，一杯sparking后，再勉强地喝了小口店方赠送半打shooter，喝起来「酸咪咪」，气不算多，感觉几消腻的，是调酒师知道大家吃得太饱，特别炮制？笑谈至差不多要赶尾班车才埋单，每人约$80左右，饮品+气氛／时间，每分钟消费约$0.6，较坐星巴更合理。

The is my 2nd visit to Red Soho. The 1st time I've been there was on Sunday. I has a afternoon tea there with my friend. Staff there were really nice and caring. Pizza was lovely and it made me miss it a lot.The 2nd time was on Friday night. It was totaly full. Music was really nice. Even it was a busy night but staff were still smiling everywhere n caring everyone. The place of Red Soho is nice n big enough. It's really good to go after a long working week or enjoy a bit n have a afternoon tea there after shoping around.

Arrived on a Tues night to find that they had a function here, so we were moved to a back room which had been set up for regular diners.The reason I had come back was so I could take a friend here to try their food. Also, my dining companions from my last visit had told me after I wrote my previous review that they had tasted MSG in the food because a couple hours later they felt the thirst. I didn't believe them, because I felt fine that night - probably because I had 5 glasses of sparkling water to down my dinner with!So for dinner we decided on the following: Mushroom soup $68This tasted as good as last time - had a nice aroma and flavour of wild mushrooms. Lobster Roll $238This was actually more generous in portion than last time. It had lobster pieces spilling out! I liked how this time the lobster was on top of the mayo mix of celery etc which gave it a nice crunch and varying textures and flavours. However, they have perhaps overseasoned it because the top part was way too salty! The chips again were pretty but not crunchy enough to be 'chips'. Grilled Salmon $188I had high expectations for this. Upon ordering the waiter asked me if I wanted it medium. I said medium-well so it is still pink in the center...It arrived well-done . So it was quite dry in texture. Sure, the bottom and the skin was quite crispy, but they were dry too and I'm pretty sure it was pan-fried then grilled (if grilled at all). The salmon itself was seasoned only at the bottom, so the middle part was tastless, but with the help of the pesto, (tiny) lemon, and salsa it was edible. The salsa was really tasty.....until about 20 minutes after dinner. After we had paid and left, I started feeling weirdly thirsty... despite having had 2 cups of water already with dinner. Luckily I had a bottle of water with me so I finished that too.....but the after-taste of MSG was still lingering unpleasantly in my throat. I do not think I am MSG-sensitive, having grown up on instant noodles and fast food, but I was really having an unpleasant time after dinner. For their use of MSG alone I will have to withdraw my earlier '5', and submit this review. This is since I only expect MSG in fast-food restaurants and (possibly even upscale) Chinese restaurants - but even so, I have never felt like this after a tasty Chinese dinner. For the chefs to use MSG in Red Soho, I am truly shocked and disappointed, as there are plenty of seasonings/herbs/spices one can use to give flavour and texture to food without ANY use of chicken powder or MSG. Also, the toilets were disgusting. Bill came to $400 after a 30% off.
