Before I jump into any food review, I just want to truly appreciate how friendly and heartwarming the staff are. On the day that I visited the restaurant, there was a little girl being sick sitting on the chair in front of the restaurant, while the girl's mum kindly asked if they can go inside and borrow the washroom, the staff were caring and allowed both to clean themselves up using their washroom. Having said that, the restaurant is not just simly a place to serve food for customers but truly
Before I jump into any food review, I just want to truly appreciate how friendly and heartwarming the staff are. On the day that I visited the restaurant, there was a little girl being sick sitting on the chair in front of the restaurant, while the girl's mum kindly asked if they can go inside and borrow the washroom, the staff were caring and allowed both to clean themselves up using their washroom. Having said that, the restaurant is not just simly a place to serve food for customers but truly care about "PEOPLE". Throughout the whole dining experience, we were served with care and passion.
Okay, so once we stepped into the restaurant, we were attracted by the long dessert fridge display that is facing directly to the door. The variety of desserts and fresh fruity drinks were just so welcoming and tempting for every guests.
Since it was not overwhemingly busy at 6pm on a weekday, we decided to have a long dinner with a lot of catch up to do, we decided to jump right into main courses, desserts, then lastly drinks. Herbs griled tiger prawn and spicy tomato linguine ($168)
The tiger prawn is generous in size for its price and the texture is fresh and bouncy, while the linguine is semi-al dente and seasoned. Despite having a hint of spicy kick, the taste of the dish is a bit overpowered by the saltiness so I would recommend you to ask for a slightly less-salty version of the dish.
Garlic herbs roasted spring chicken with thyme and mushroom risotto ($168)Again, this dish is good for those who likes rich and strong taste. The risotto was slightly over-cooked to my liking and the roasted half chicken is topped with roasted garlic powder that blended nicely with the meat. Portion was also very generous and we weren't able to finish it at the end.
Coffee Panna Cotta and Mousse ($48)Desserts are probably the highlight of the restaurant. Some of the desserts are partly pre-made. This coffee flavoured panna cotta is topped with sweetened coffee jelly cubes, fresh cream, crushed peanuts and a crisp. The panna cotta was very smooth, complimented nicely with the sweet jello.
Uji Matcha Special ($68)The Uji matcha special contains a cup of hot matcha milk, matcha soft serve ice cream, and a matcha red bean cream roll.
The matcha red bean cream roll was okay althought the red bean flavour was overpowered by the matcha. The cake itself wasn't too moist compared to other shops.
The matcha milk was light and fluffy with lots of foam, a great treat for winter time.
The matcha soft serve was very smooth and silky, much softer and richer than many other chain stores. There was no big ice chunks in the ice cream.
p.s. try to mix the ice cream with the milk to make a affogato superb match!
For $68, it's a great bargain to try 3 different sweet treats and we highly recommend you to try this.
Rose & Yuzu (HOT) ($38)The tea uses yuzu mix and rose petals. It was a refreshing warm tea for anyone. It was a bit sweet yet not too sweet. A great choice of drink after a big meal like us
Banana and chocolate with peanut butter (COLD) ($45)If you know me well enough, you would know I am a big fan of peanut butter. I am probably willing to try any peanut butter item on the menu. This drink is more like a milkshake in texture, yet there is no ice cream in it. It was rich and thick since it was freshly blended using bananas. This combination can never fail, every note speaks for itself and tries to stand out. The peanut butter flavour was the most outspoken flavour, which absolutely suit my liking. (Maybe not for those who don't like nuts or think drinks)
The dinner finished beautifully costing $589 for two, quite affordable for a very satisfying meal at the heart of Causeway Bay. Their desserts would probably be our reasons to come back again and we can't wait to try more dishes!
