Boyfriend and I decided to try this place as I had bookmarked it on Openrice a long while back. It's a bit hidden which made it perfect for a cozy place to eat. We were greeted by a lovely French waitress who took us to a table and brought along a chalk board of tonight specials. While waiting for our food, we loved the sweet decor filled with wonderful French childhood classics like Tin Tin. I ordered the duck confit and I have to say...this is the best duck confit in Hong Kong! Other French r
I ordered the duck confit and I have to say...this is the best duck confit in Hong Kong! Other French restaurants use duck breast but in actuality, duck leg should be used and that's what this place served me. A hearty whole duck leg. It was tender, falling off the bone. The potatoes under the leg was flavored with the delicious duck fat. Ladies, if you expect to eat real French, than don't expect it to be light and healthy cos the French love cooking with duck fat and that's why I love the French! The salad was crisp and right amount of dressing to balance out the heaviness of the duck. And the tangy orange sauce for the duck was fantastic!
Boyfriend ordered the beef bourguinon. It came with a generous serving of crispy fries. The pot of beef was packed with beef so tender it melted in your mouth. You could taste the red wine used to stew the beef. It almost made you drunk.
Portion size was so huge, we were too full so didn't order dessert. The table next to us were also contemplating on dessert as they were too full as well and they were two huge sized men! On the menu was a rib set enough for two people but a table of four ordered it and when it came out, it was enough huge and enough for at least 4-5 people.
When we asked for the bill, the waitress gave us a jar of candy to munch on. And there was no rush to get us out. In true French fashion!
The atmosphere, the people, the food, the whole place...this is how a real French restaurant should be Hong Kong. It was exactly how I had French food in Paris. Will definitely come again.
