Central, Hong Kong｜Joël Robuchon

High quality as expected from a michelin 3 star restaurant. Haven't been back for years, but happy to see that they have kept up their standards.. The food and service are top notch and the entire dining experience was well paced. The highlight for me is definitely the bread basket though, even though the dishes are all very good.

No wonder it is a three star Michelin restaurant. The atmosphere is good, service is good and the food is so good! The welcome snack is melon soup, which is so light and sweet, with aid of dried wagyu beef, what a summer dishes. The Duck foie gras cream with fine chicken jelly and sweet corn coulis is very delicious! The duck foie gras is so thick and creamy, pairing with sweet corn purée, mixed with chicken broth jelly, the taste is rich and intense but won’t be too greasy not heavy at all. Love it! Fine matsutake mushroom “ veloute” with jasmine rice cream is so tasty! The matsutake mushroom soup is silky smooth, paired with jasmine rice cream makes it even more smooth and the flavor is so nice ! Grilled duck breast with spices, cherry confit with kriek is cooked perfectly! The portion is generous, the duck meat is juicy and tender, together with the special cherries, balanced the bold flavor of duck, give a touch of fruity sweetness, lovely! Smooth passion fruit cream with rum granite and coconut is another highlight! The desserts is so refreshing and tasty! The coconut cream goes well with passion fruit cream , it is sweet and sour , smooth creamy texture contrasting with the crispy dried mangoes, love it! And the cappuccino is so smooth! The special caramel syrup is so tasty , with a hint of wine taste, not overly sweetened, nice! Petite fours is good round up, smooth dark chocolate and the fluffy marcoon, I had a great time today! It lights up my day! Thank you!

You can never go wrong with Robuchon. The food is consistently excellent, for overall a reasonable price given the quality of the ingredients and the originality of the dishes. Staff is knowledgeable, nice and diligent. The venue is lightened by electrical lights, so if you prefer natural lightning (for lunch) you may not enjoy the atmosphere.
