Van Gogh Kitchen
I
was recently invited
to have dinner in one of the best Italian restaurants in Hong Kong:
Van Gogh Kitchen, which
is situated on the second
floor of a multi-storey building in the
busy Nathan
Road.
What
makes this restaurant so special is its unique decoration, inspired
on Van Gogh´s works of art. For example, the main room has been
styled to resemble “Night Cafe”; the 1888 oil painting which
depics a red-walled cosy cafe with a huge billiard table in the
middle of the place.
The
menu offers a wide range of appetizers and main courses, all
italian and mouth-watering.
As starters, I
chose to eat the
“scallop carpaccio crab meat temple” and the
“wild mushroom soup”, while my
friend ordered
“baked polenta”
served with spicy
sausages
and cannellini beans. For the main dishes, we
ordered the chef’s
specialty “chilled Australia lamb shoulder rack”. The
food was delicious and perfect in color, flavor and taste. This
superb 5-star-meal
was perfectly crowned
with Tiramisu and european
creme brulee, our all-time
favourite desserts.
Equally
important is, of course, the service of the restaurant. The
waiters and waitresses are hospitable and cordial, and their constant
amiable smiles undoubtedly win the hearts of customers. Slight
disappoiting
was, however, having
to wait a considerable amount of time for
the food to arrive.
The
price of this Italian cuisine was also reasonably high. Nevertheless,
it is worth waiting and
paying for such special
dishes that can bring us joyful times. With tasty food and good
service, I enjoyed a pleasant dining experience with my friend in a
comfortable homelike and
artisty atmosphere. I
therefore strongly recommend going
there.
