For something a little more substantial, be sure to try the Spanish pork neck Tonkatsu “Milanese style”, served with Puntarelle salad, fennel pollen and blood orange; baked monkfish tail with Bearnaise sauce and garnished with Romanesco and hazelnuts; and the Australian wagyu striploin served with morels mushrooms, and dressed with celeriac and horseradish puree, with a touch of aged balsamic vinegar.
If you’re struggling to decide, try opting for the new five-course Chef Tasting Menu (HK$688++ per person) and splurge a little with the insightful wine pairing (HK$268++ per person).
Think of it as an intimate way to kick off the silly season.
