Apart from local, traditional treats, there are a few excellent recommendations I would like to share during my recent trip away. Now bear with me, I’m really hungover…
Robuchon a Galera at Hotel Lisboa – Joel Robuchon being one of my favorite chefs… this was one of the places I couldn’t wait to try! A lot of friends have commented that this restaurant is much better than its Hong Kong counterpart (which is probably over-trendy with less focus on the food).
Warm egg cocotte with spinach, truffle and parsley toast, Chicken soup jelly with Fois Gras, Onion tartin with Sliced black truffle
Papilotte of silver cod with black truffle and baby artichoke and leek - cooked to perfection in a paper bag, cream sauce dressed at the table, and the flesh of the fish just falls to the touch of the fork. mmmm
The mille feuille (my favorite dessert of all time) with very fresh pastry and vanilla cream, the floating island with chestnut ice cream
The Peninsula Spa
“Exclusive poolside lunch featuring Naturally Peninsula light and healthy cuisine” – Poached salmon in vegetable broth
H One @ IFC
Steamed White Asparagus, Italian “Sunny Side Up” Egg, Shaved Parmesan, White Truffle Oil
Agnes b – Le pain grille
High tea set – very cute, relaxing environment perfect for a girly chat over a hot cup. I went with my grandmother!
Da Domenico -10 Hysan Ave, 10-12, G/F Sunning Plaza, Causeway Bay
Their famous Lobster linguini – to die for. A cute trattoria styled Italian restaurant I visited with my boss. I snapped this photo during his smoke break!
i hate you!
you always make me so hungry after looking at your entry!
@Kiwihead - Imagine how hungry I get when I write it! I actually took a break halfway, went out for brunch, and then came back to finish it with a full stomach.
This is Asian food? haha. Doesn’t look like it, well some
Looks good and that’s A LOT of food 
@Amanda – And you FAIL. You went out for food and didnt bring any back for me!
take me eating amanda!!!
The food looks amazing! Though I’m in HK but I’m always too busy to try…. I better save some time for myself and friends to start visiting these places!
btw did you like the interior of H One? One of my close friend designed it! haha
i’ll have what she’s having…
lovely and admirable
I want to try the mille feuille – that looks delicious, but so does everything else…
*drooling* it looks so damn good!
You bring back my love for cooking.
Oh my.
