My friend who's an editor in a hk online magazine took me to an organic menu tasting at Red Soho. Since I am a vegetarian I tried 3 salads and she had the meat-dishes. The Roasted Organic Beetroot with Herb Salad & Goats Cheese ($98) came as a perfect 1st dish. Not only is it fresh, well-flavored and seasoned but also extremely interesting. Not everyone is a big fan of beetroot but their yellow beetroot may change your mind. At first we were very curious about the boiled yellow pepper alike vegg
The Roasted Organic Beetroot with Herb Salad & Goats Cheese ($98) came as a perfect 1st dish. Not only is it fresh, well-flavored and seasoned but also extremely interesting. Not everyone is a big fan of beetroot but their yellow beetroot may change your mind. At first we were very curious about the boiled yellow pepper alike veggie but we found out that it's a special kind of beetroot. It tasted like sweet potato with a clean, light and fresh flavor, yet its texture crunchy. Superb!
We also tried their Organic Golden Figs with Pear Tomato, Asparagus , Lettuce & Passion fruit Dressing ($98). Personally I am a big fan of figs and passion fruits and I like the texture of seeds mixed with soft tomato and asparagus. Probably because the figs and passion fruits were all organic, their sweet and sour taste was not overwhelming like they could do sometimes, especially for regular figs.
If you prefer something more fruity and adventurous, the Organic Golden Watermelon Salad with Heirloom Tomato, Baby Lettuce, Red Onion & Feta Cheese ($128) may be you cup of tea. Unlike ordinary red watermelon, the golden watermelon was less sugary and crunchier. This contrasted the texture of heirloom tomatoes which was starchier than regular tomatoes. Although the creamy taste of the tomato could be too funky for some people, heirloom tomatoes have become increasingly popular for its health benefits. And since it's not readily available it was still quite an interesting experience to try it.
My friend also tried other organic main course dishes Organic Linguine with grilled Chicken Breast, Chili, Basil & Olive oil ($138), Scottish Organic Salmon Fillet with with Barley Salad & Lemon Mint Dressing ($188) and Braised Organic Beef Cheek with Organic Baby Carrot, New Potato & White Radish ($198).
