I noticed most of the people who write reviews for Gaddi's had really expensive meals at it, I came here on a casual afternoon for a set lunch which costs <$500; and perhaps that explain why I do not share the majority's comment that the food are 'amazing'.Decor of Gaddi's follows the classical European style, with large chandelier in the middle & shiny furnitures. It shows off the history of Peninsula being the first 5-star hotel in HK going back to the Colonial years. Gaddi's is well hidde
Decor of Gaddi's follows the classical European style, with large chandelier in the middle & shiny furnitures. It shows off the history of Peninsula being the first 5-star hotel in HK going back to the Colonial years. Gaddi's is well hidden in the basement of Peninsula hotel, with a antique & slow-responding lift which will bring you down to the restaurant from the hotel's ground floor.
There are not too many choices for the set lunch, which is perfectly understandable. The lunch is 3 courses with a glass of wine of your choice. I had the pigeon as the starter & short ribs as the main. The starter has a piece of cooked crispy pigeon standing on top of few pieces of raw meats, and the dish is surround by beet roots I would probably like this dish to come with a bit of sweetness in it, it taste a bit too dull. The short ribs is definitely my favourite dish of the afternoon. It is juicy & soft! Since I do not want pasta, they changed my side dish to small scopes of potatoes. Dishes come in good sizes so we were all too full to finish the petite four at the end.
The set lunch menu is certainly good price, given the luxurious setting & impeccable services. But I perhaps expect too much from Gaddi's, was expecting to be 'surprised' by the dishes. Do not get me wrong, food are of good quality, but i was just looking for something extra. Would love to come back again for the tasting menu, afterall a set lunch doesn't allow the chef to exercise his full creativity.
NB: note the strict dress code. Smart casual, and no jeans.
