We went to this Italian restaurant right beneath the escalators for lunch over the weekend. They have a lunch buffet that is very decently priced: $208 for all you can eat appetizer buffet, primi and secondi served by the waiter fresh from the kitchen, dessert buffet plus a coffee or tea. Add $100 to the price and you get free flow of prosecco and orange juice as well. In terms of taste:- Cappucino was not nice, quite watered down- surprising for an Italian restaurant.- Appetizer selection was great: salads, prosciutto and salami, grilled vegetables, mozzarella, ricotta cheese, smoked salmon, sauteed mushrooms etc.- The primi passed around by the waiters covered a wide range, including spaghetti with ragu', gnocchi, pasta with salmon and thin-crust pizzas. Pasta should be al dente, but some strands of spaghetti were a bit too undercooked, which was disappointing. The pizza was also a bit too crunchy for my taste.- The secondi we had were tuna and lamb, both quite nice.- Dessert selection included fruit, a bread pudding of sorts and biscotti. In terms of service, one of the female staff who waited on our table was quite rude, not to mention forgetful of our drink orders. She spent most of her time chatting and joking with the other staff instead of attending to the clients, which made the experience less enjoyable. All in all you definitely leave this place stuffed, as you should feel after any Italian meal. Also like any Italian meal, you take your time eating (they didn't bring out the primi until around 1:30pm when we were there) so plan to stay a while if you have the buffet. …查看更多

I walked by this new place a few times on my way to the office and was attracted by the decoration and displays, so I went in to see what it was all about. I am usually a coffee drinker, but I was very impressed with Leaf's wide selection of teas from all over the world, so decided to try something new. I had the Rooibos tea since I had never had teas from South Africa before and was definitely pleased with both flavour and service. I will go back to try some other selections. Veramente una buona tazza di tè.…查看更多
