I was very much disappointed by both the quality and quantity of the "executive lunch set". The set itself included a starter, tapas, main dish and dessert, with either tea or coffee to finish. One would expect something decent for such a lunch set at approx. HK$300 - and yet it was hugely disappointing.
Starter:
There were in fact not many choices for starters, except either "hot" or "cold" soups. I ordered a "hot" brocolli and walnut soup given that I have never liked the idea of having "cold" soups, especially on a cold humid day. It was very much disappointing when the supposedly "hot" soup turned out to be some green watery bowl - with very little taste of brocolli or walnut- which wasn't even "hot" at all and without much substance.
Tapas:
(Given that I am never a fan of tapas) I don't have much expectation over the tapas and I would say they were just alright - such that they were "normal" and not as disappointing as the soup. However, the portion of the tapas was reaaaaalllyyyy small as compared to any other Spanish restaurants.
Main dish:
I ordered the pork belly as the main. And guess what, I waited for more than half an hour ... for only 3 small pieces of finger sized pork belly!!!!! And no joke, not only I was surprised by the inefficiency of both the waitors and kitchen staff (given our repeated requests for the main to come asap), the pork belly tasted like some fried pork slices coated with thick oil and nothing more. Even any Chinese roasted pork would taste wayyyy better than such overpriced pork belly.
Side note: My friend ordered the main of slow cooked fish and to sum up its quality, it was more like Spanish "fish ball" with no texture.
Dessert:
How I wish the dessert could have been better, but sadly enough, the chocolate crepe was terrible. It was soggy, tasteless - like a uncooked slice of dough with the spread of fake chocolate sauce.
To sum up, there was no single dish (at least offered in the lunch set) that worth the price. There are so many other good Spanish restaurants out there - but not Catalunya.
