D除了愛吃，也愛欣賞香港的獨有的維港怡人美麗夜景。於是這次跟C的生日晚餐，選了位於中環7號碼頭的Watermark，真是令人喜出望外，能把幾種喜好，一併細味。D覺得在香港很難找到有水準，地方寬敞而有美景的餐廳，而Watermark正是這類罕有的好地方。Watermark供應不同的海鮮和肉類，它的Mixed Seafood Grill用料新鮮，值得一試。最吸引的當然是它的地方出奇地大，天花樓底高得很，入口處有一條很特色的"瀑布"走廊。其清雅幽靜的環境加上窗外對岸的夜景，讓我們以為自己到了一間很有格調的外國餐廳。雖然晚餐價值不菲，要每人大概$500-$600，但能夠邊欣賞醉人景致，邊享受充裕的空間，真是一頓令人一吃難忘的生日飯！D often finds that restaurants serving quality food, and having spacious room along with the gorgeous view of the Victoria Harbour have always been a rare commodity in Hong Kong, but W
D often finds that restaurants serving quality food, and having spacious room along with the gorgeous view of the Victoria Harbour have always been a rare commodity in Hong Kong, but Watermark, is poised to change this perception in a heartbeat. D picked Watermark for dinner to celebrate C's birthday last month.
Located at Pier 7 of the Star Ferry Terminal in Central, Watermark is packed with a lively jumbles of exclamation marks and impressive selling points. The restaurant is housed in the ferry terminal building overlooking the fantastic view of the harbor. The entrance of the restaurant was elegant and contemporary, furnished with a dark hallway surrounded by waterfalls that led to the reception area.The interior of the restaurant was serenely and luxuriously spacious and peaceful. As you know a lot of restaurants in Hong Kong tended to cramp their seats together to utilize all the space. But not at Watermark. Privacy was almost guaranteed for us as we were separated with somewhat distance from the other diners. The gentle lighting and the high ceiling achieved a charismatic, comfortable and romantic ambiance, which was just perfect! We even got a window seat so that we could enjoy the superb night view. You will be gummed up with how stunning it looks at night.
You can't find this much "space" with a nice view in many restaurants in Hong Kong, and we felt Watermark is a restaurant of an entirely different calibre (at one point, we felt as if we were inside an upscale restaurant in Shanghai). Meals here are on the more expensive side, a typical dinner costs around $600 to $700 per head.
(1) As we weren't that hungry, so we only ordered a Watermark Mixed Grill ($758) to share. The dish included Halibut, sea bass, 1/2 lobster, scallop, caramelized lemon, new potatoes. Although it was smaller than we expected, every single piece of food presented on the plate, including the potatoes, was completely delicious! The scallops had an adorable, chewy texture. The sauce just elevated its flavour further. The lobster was something to dash about as it was pleasantly moist and had a very fresh taste. The two fish were both finely cooked and gorgeously seasoned to our liking. We felt pretty full and satisfied afterwards.
(2) For desserts, D ordered a Dark Chocolate Liquid Tart ($75) served with Basil ice cream, star anise tuile, which definitely did not disappoint! The taste of the dark chocolate with the crunchy layer of the tart, mixed with the ice cream tasted delightful in the mouth.
(3) The birthday boy decided to try The Exotic ($75) which was the Chef's creation using seasonal fruits, including berries and lychee. The cake was layered with coconut, lychee and mango. It tasted surprisingly harmonious and equally as sweet and soothing.
It was a pleasant birthday dinner for C with a winsome atmosphere and equally winsome food. The service was polite and attentive, and the staff were really helpful with presenting the birthday dessert and singing the happy birthday song to C. We adored the lovable and impressive view. Even the food may be quite pricey, Watermark came across as a supremely understated restaurant that has a lot to offer and to discover and we were definitely blown away by the most comfortable and unique dining experience by the water!
