Having once dined at GOLD by Harlan Goldstein which to me was superb, I held high hopes for his latest venture and certainly, my hopes were fulfilled.In a laid-back European-loft design it introduces satisfying “food for friends” that are meant for sharing. I was introduced to a refreshing glass of Russian Spring Punch (HK$98) and was happy to drink it in that warm winter afternoon.A number of dishes were tasted that afternoon, starting with Wagyu Beef Bresaola, Gorgonzola, Walnut + Honey (HK$17
Having once dined at GOLD by Harlan Goldstein which to me was superb, I held high hopes for his latest venture and certainly, my hopes were fulfilled.
In a laid-back European-loft design it introduces satisfying “food for friends” that are meant for sharing. I was introduced to a refreshing glass of Russian Spring Punch (HK$98) and was happy to drink it in that warm winter afternoon.
A number of dishes were tasted that afternoon, starting with Wagyu Beef Bresaola, Gorgonzola, Walnut + Honey (HK$178). The rich saltiness of the cured meat and cheese makes a great pair, while the crispy, sugared walnuts add a nice twist to both the taste, aroma and texture. Perhaps the most quickly-gone dish during the meal!
Spanish Pork and 5J Ham Meatballs in a Coriander Tomato Sauce (HK$88): Nothing can go wrong with the classic combination of tomato sauce and meatballs. In this dish though, they are no ordinary meatballs since they are 100% pure Iberian.
Finger-Licking Chicken Wings, Sweet Soya, Chilli, Ginger and Spring Onions (HK$88): When the glazed coating and the mix of colours make it a dish very appealing to the eyes and palate.
Lemon Herbed-Halloumi Cheese on Indian-Spiced Spinach (HK$88): The semi-hard cheese itself has a light flavour, and paired with spinach gives a distinctive taste. I always prefer cheese that becomes stretchy when heated, so this vegetarian dish does not appeal to me too much. But it’s just personal, still finds it a good dish.
Moving on to the mains we had this Grilled Octopus, Greek Saffron Potato Skordalia Sauce (HK$188): Pleasantly grilled, yet the sauce can be made stronger to taste for I can only feel it with its puréed texture.
Crab Meat Crusted Salmon Steak, Asparagus, Lobster Cajun Sauce (HK$188): Fish meat is not necessarily less appetizing than red meats. Such as this dish, the natural sweetness of the fresh seafood ingredients simply deserves a thumbs up (love the sauce a lot)! By the way, who can ignore the superb roasted garlic by the side?張貼
