Worth a try.
Actually I like traditional European cuisines such as Portuguese, Germanic, Russian and Eastern European cuisines. My wife suggested this.
This time we were on safer grounds (unlike Tosca). A Spanish friend who have been staying in HK for over 20 years recommended this place to us. This and I believe O Lè and 3-4 other Spanish restaurants in HK definitely have Spanish chefs.
There is an al fresco area for smokers. We choose a table indoors. Unfortunately, the place was a bit packed and the ceiling was low. If you've been to Tapas bars in Spain, you'll know that the noise level is higher than the noisiest Chinese restaurant in Hong Kong. It's about the same when we went.
Urgent alcohol to numb the senses was required:
I ordered Draght Kronenburg. (They also serve a Spanish bottled beer. It tasted similar to Tsing Tao.)Virgin sangria for my wife.
Menu:
Other than seafood paella, a potato cake similar to Spanish omelette and a fair amount of cold cuts, the menu also had a number of very interesting items such as pickled anchovies and Iberico black pudding.
We ordered what seemed to be their signature dishes: Gazpacho, Squid with chorizo, Black pudding and Melon salad with Iberico ham.
Gazpacho:
This seemed pretty authentic to me. Refreshing tomato soup with a pinch of herbs and a bit of black pepper. The few slices of garlic bread that came with the Gazpacho were warm, crunchy and flavourful. Good.Melon salad with Iberico ham:
The melon was just average. Not as crispy or tasty as the Japanese variety. It was still rather sweet so went well with the generous amount of rich Iberico ham. Squid with chorizo:
The squids were a bit tough for my liking but were very rich. There were much more chorizo sausages than squid. It's fried in what seems to be a thick tomato sauce and some sort of dark sauce. Some may find this too salty though.
Iberico black pudding :
Extremely rich with bits fat that will melt in your mouth. Somewhere between a Chinese liver sausage and black pudding. Reminded me of similar black puddings i've had in Eastern Europe. Excellent! Very good with the pickled gurkins.
The black pudding went extremely well with the equally rich and smooth Spanish red (the 1st on the list). The Portuguese red was not as complex but still acceptable (the only one by glass on the list.)Crème brulée:
This was just right for me and my wife. The timeing was right and the sweetness was just right - not too sweet and not too bland. Conclusion:
HK$860 including service, three glasses of red and a virgin sangria.
Friendly and efficient service.
I'll definitely be back for the black pudding and red wine*
Recommended.
題外話/補充資料：
之後以來過多次。 薯餅很不錯。雞肉菜式亦很好。值得一試!
*We came here a number of times afterwards. The pickled anchovies were a bit too sour. The potato cake was delicious and worth a dry. The black puddings and red wine were just as good.
Booking is required.
