I came for dinner with a business associate...despite being Sicilian, he asked to dine at this specific restaurant (I would have thought he wanted to try Chinese!).So, when we arrived at the restaurant, we were immediately greeted very warmly - friendly and attentive. Once the host realized that my associate was visiting, and was Sicilian, the Italian was flying As we were reviewing the menu, the manager came over and introduced himself.

As we were reviewing the menu, the manager came over and introduced himself. After a bit of small talk, he asked us if we would allow them to plan our menu for us for evening. Then the chef also came to our table to discuss the details of our preferences, and any requests...we were getting lots of attention!
We started with artichokes sautéed in extra virgin olive oil and garlic and fresh ricotta on toast - delicious! The artichokes were full of flavour, and not greasy at all, despite being fried. And the fresh ricotta was lovely (I was told by my associate that it was ok, but he noted that it would be impossible for anyone to bring in fresh ricotta from Italy).
Our main pasta, was a request from my associate, which was spaghetti with roasted eggplants, ricotta, and tomatoes sauce with garlic. It was very flavourful - rich tomatoe sauce, full of depth and sweetness from the tomatoes, and wonderful balance with the smokiness from the roasted eggplants. The tomatoe sauce may the best that I've had in Hong Kong...
One of the better pasta meals I've had in Hong Kong.
Overall, the food and staff were really excellent - I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone
