Let's have some background first. This resturant had open more than a year. I always wanted to go but do not have a good excuse. Therefore, many people had already gone and its rating in the net was not very impressive. I had my doubt when i made the decision still have a try.
For the evening, we ordered 1 sausage roll; 2 French shucked Oyster, mignonette sauce, lemon; 3 Fish and chips, crushed peas, tartar sauce; and 4 Grill lamb with Russel Sprout. For drinks, we had Spitfire, Ale, UK and Whitstable Bay Blonde, Láger, UK.
Beside food, other important factor in dinner is the environment. The resturant has two floors. People can choice the ground floor open area where people can smoke and enjoy the Tsim Sha Tsui sea view ; or ground floor indoor near the live band area; or second floor which also has the same sea view but avoided the smoking area. Second floor is for people made reservations, however it is also near the kitchen. It is also closed that night because lack of staffs. So, we had the inner area of ground floor near the band and away those smoking people. The view is nice and the atmosphere of the resturant is good too. Although it is not the most important essence but the live band is not good. I would say the fault is on both male and female singer. It is quite disappointing. At least, i expected good English in an English resturant. (Music start at 9pm)
In term of foods, it had its high and low scores. For first round, we had sausage roll and oyster. I was so disappointed with the sausage roll. It looks like those Yam Cha (飲茶)Barbecue Pastry (叉燒酥)in Chinese resturant. But God, I was wrong, it was so good. The sausage itself was very delicious and the pastry went well with it. You could see that they also put cheese in the pastry. For the oyster, I enjoyed it without and sauce. The mignonette sauce is good. Still, no sauce for me. But, my friend enjoy it with the mignonette.
For second round, we had fish and chip and grill lamb. I was very disappointed with the fish and chips. Many reviewers recommended it. I would give point to it that the fish is big. But, the fish itself lack of taste. So, i put more tartar sauce with it. The chips is good. The flowers on top of the fish was thin and was fry properly. For the grill lamb, it was beautiful and fantastic. The lamb was very tasty, had good balance of fat and lean meat. The sauce and Russell Sprout was all good.
Both beers, Whitstable and Spitfire, was very good. We ordered it because they were not common in HK. Spitfire is lighter and have more flavour. Whitstable had stronger wheat taste.
Overall, I would give it 8/10. Bottom line is nice view, good atmosphere, possible good food, At least i am still open mind with go it again. The price will not be cheap but i still it reasonable.
P.S. it has a big TV to watch sport. And the service is fine. I don't have complaint with it like i found on the commend in the net. read more
