(Out of 5 Stars)
Wonderful tasty food, served beautifully and artistically. The staff were all so helpful and we enjoyed hearing about all the courses, the background to the ingredients and the reasons the ingredients were chosen. Highly recommend this restaurant, very deserving of its Michelin star. Definitely not to be missed if you are in Hong Kong.
