If you're tired of going to the same type of bars and are looking for a different dining and bar experience, The Woods Hong Kong has you covered with their innovative prix fixe menu that change every few months. Their recently launched "Tidal Waves" is certain to offer any seafood lover a spectacle for the eyes, and a whirlwind of flavours and textures for the mouth. We loved how this menu is very much about the experience of eating and drinking, focusing on quality ingredients, and informative and engaging staff.Though The Woods has been open for a year now, I must have walked past its front doors on Hollywood Road dozens of times completely oblivious to its existence due to the small entrance leading downstairs to the actual bar; a true hidden gem! Once downstairs, the bar is basically divided into a seating area and two bars, one of which has eight seats reserved for their prix fixe menu only. Over the past few months I've really come to enjoy sitting at the bar when I go out, as you get to see your drinks being made and can ask the bartender any questions you may have. Because their prix fixe menu is quite interactive, with both the bartender and the chef coming to explain the ingredients in each course, the bar is the perfect spot to sit.We started with fresh Hong Kong abalone with kale chips and miso dressing, paired with squid ink sake. I'm actually not a huge fan of abalone, so I was a bit apprehensive about trying it, but it was honestly so tasty! The chef explained that it made a huge difference in terms of the taste and texture of fresh abalone compared to the abalone you might find in a local Chinese restaurant. The squid ink sake was very unique as well; an interesting combination of the sweetness of sake and the slight seafood taste of squid ink. We loved how unique the presentation of this course was. The seaweed-infused gin cocktail was a big hit with its subtle hints of seaweed and its creative use of a shell in place of a glass. The edible tempura prawn on the side was also delicious. This cocktail was paired with botan ebi "floating" in a gelatin-like liquid made from grapefruit to represent the ocean. The shrimp was succulent and fresh, though I couldn't really taste any hints of grapefruit. When we initially sat down, we were shown a container with a handful of these small live crabs that would soon be part of our meal. The Woods uses the freshest ingredients, as they fly these bad boys in straight from Japan. The crab cakes were very flavourful and the consistency was lighter thanks to the addition of risotto. The roasted red pepper sauce went really well with the crab cakes without overpowering the flavour of crab. The fried Japanese crabs on top were absolutely divine! They use an in-house Old Bay seasoning that really compliments the flavour of the meat. The cocktail was a a remake of the traditional Bloody Mary with the addition of uni. We liked that they also gave you three different flavoured ice-balls: black pepper, celery, and tomato, so you could add one or all of them to your drink to change the flavour slightly depending on your preference.This was hands-down the biggest shocker of the entire night. If you definitely plan on going to The Woods to try their Tidal Waves menu, stop reading this section right now, as I wouldn't want to be held reasonable for ruining the best part. To everyone else, you're probably looking at the photo thinking it's pretty bizarre to serve an oyster as a dessert (just as I was when this dish was put in front of me), but if you look a little closer you'll see that this "oyster" is actually made entirely of white chocolate! I know.. insanely unique and creative, especially considering the chef made the mold for this oyster from scratch. Inside the oyster there was a small scoop of homemade salted caramel ice cream and caviar on top. The cocktail was composed of white chocolate and vanilla-infused rum, which paired perfectly with the decadent ice cream and "oyster".To finish off, we were served a peach sorbet with salmon roe paired with a tequila, caper brine, and grapefruit cocktail in a slightly awkward, but unique glass. The sorbet was very refreshing and the addition of the roe somehow worked well together, both in terms of flavour and texture. The cocktail was light and made for a nice finish to the menu.The new prix fixe menu, Tidal Waves, at The Woods is a must if you're looking for something new, unique, and interactive that takes your typical cocktails and bar food to a whole new level. We can't wait to see what The Woods comes up with next!

My colleagues and I came to the Woods for after work drinks and snacks. My cocktail, a lavender based gin drink was very refreshing with hints of lemon.The cheese platter was great, with generous portions of yummy cheese, crackers and apple slices.

went there for NYE party, expected to have a fun night and free flow of canape and drinks (as it was advertised and we paid for the event package) but it turned out to be a very bad experience. we got there around 2200 and nothing was ready except we could only get a very slow serving drink towards 2300, and one each only. We thought playing beer pong would be fun, so 6 of us started to play but no drinks/ shots could be severed until we asked many times so finally we could get one shot each. and canape was only very lousy food and severed at very slow pace, like 1 kind of food per a plate, per an hour, Seriously, if we needed to pay nearly $900 for those crappy service/ food/ drink, we could've gone to Aqua or anywhere more prestige. And it was too bad for us to stay so we only were there for 2 hours.We made the complain on the night, and afterwards, no one followed up. Definitely will recommend people DO NOT go to this place, it's a total RIP-OFF.

早闻说过这家的4-course menu, 原来喝酒跟吃fine dining可以那么相似。但来过这里数次了,也还没有意欲去试。反而是想推介一下这里的一些signature. 走下楼梯,昏黄的暖光带点classy的氛围,跟上面荷里活道的街舖、嘈杂吵耳的声浪,彷如两个世界。总是很喜欢这种避世的感觉,逃离一星期积压下来的烦闷与忧郁,才是借酒精寻开心的目的呀。-----Strawberry Rhubarb Shrub 🍹$130Tito's Vodka, homemade strawberry-rhubarb shrub with apple cider vinegar, soda, rhubarb bitters虽然第一口伏特加味爆炸,但大黄(rhubarb) 的果酸味很快便取代了苦涩味,慢慢带出苹果的醋酸。冰爽的梳打水在平衡酒醋涩味发挥了极佳的效果。吞下酒后,苹果醋的发酵甜味带着草莓香停留在口腔,齿颊留香。鸡尾酒粉红色加上鲜甜的心型草莓片,外表十分浪漫又梦幻呢。----(Skillet) Mac n Cheese $88卖这个天堂式经典的地方不少,但真正让人抛开内疚去享受却又不多。弹力十足的坑纹通粉挂酱力强,炒得咸香的烟肉和香菇添上了多元口感。用火热的铁盘上菜保留了明显的拉芝力,不但芝味十足,鲜欧芹香草亦解去了油腻感。底汁调得咸甜刚好,令人一再回味。$88以份量计不便宜,不过用以佐酒却是刚刚好。-----这么出色的表现,不愧是我的最爱酒吧之一。下次一定一定要来试他们的招牌。
