Stormies (已結業)

Stormies (Central) is far from a unfamiliar bar/restaurant; it has been one of LKF’s quintessential meeting landmarks. But somehow I have managed to avoid reviewing it for some time. It is managed by the Café Deco Group and the reason the bar/restaurant has such longevity is its location and more particularly the pricing of its alcohol.

The menu is simple, European and reasonable, with a set lunch for HK$128, appetizer were mostly around HK$60, entree HK$150-HK$200, desserts around HK$70.

Cuisine: European
Food rating: 1/10*
Service: 4/10
Ambiance: 4/10
Price: HK$140pax

* Food Rating: 6/10 is equivalent to 1 Michelin star, 8/10 to two Michelin stars, and 9/10 or 10/10 to three Michelin stars

Pear Salad (0/10)
The pear was not ripe; hence it lacked sweetness and richness. The dress was rather thin and bland, that could have down with more seasoning.

0/10

Braised Beef (1/10)
The beef was braised and served with carrot and potato stew. The beef appeared to be tender and had fair seasoning. The only technical problem was this is the kind of food I would cook for kids not at a bar.

1/10

I found the service okay, thought there were only 2 tables of diners during the lunch services. This is a perfect example of how to run a restaurant that does not attracts diners, I am glad that the alcohol sold during the evening is keeping the bar alive.

Give me a thumbs up if you like it!
