A few things you need to know about cafe idea: 1. Cafe idea might be an unseemly outlet as it is hidden in an old mall in hung hom. It's for those who appreciate food quality over decor and ambience. I find its lack of pretension is what adds to its charm!2. Lunch and dinner menus are totally different. Most reviews here seem to be based on lunch experiences which I think does not do it justice. At night, it transforms into a semi-fine dining restaurant that serves dinner sets at around hkd400
1. Cafe idea might be an unseemly outlet as it is hidden in an old mall in hung hom. It's for those who appreciate food quality over decor and ambience. I find its lack of pretension is what adds to its charm!
2. Lunch and dinner menus are totally different. Most reviews here seem to be based on lunch experiences which I think does not do it justice. At night, it transforms into a semi-fine dining restaurant that serves dinner sets at around hkd400 per head.
3. Food is fresh and handpicked by the chef everyday. (The chef Albert goes to the wet market 5am everyday to choose the seafood to be served!)
4. Portions are (overly-)generous! EXTREMELY generous.... Go with an empty stomach. You've been warned.
5. Personal favorites include the fingerlicking crab cake with baked cheddar topping. The seafood platter never fails to wow. Iberico pork is cooked to perfection. The chef even added a freshly shaved slice of black truffle into the pasta!
6. It's starting to gain popularity among the locals, do make reservations in advance. I booked my next visit 3 weeks away from now!
7. Support local eateries and chefs. Cafe idea a family owned and run restaurant. It's a charming restaurant where food was cooked and served with love.
