Madam Sixty Ate

After a great valentines lunch at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon, i was again spoiled with another great lunch at Madam Sixty Ate!








The place was definitely a feast to the eyes, i can't help falling in love with the place upon entering. K and I both decided to get the set lunch with wine pairing for me. I believe they offer one of the best value for money wine pairing deal, you just add 150hkd for 3 glasses of wine! 

Complimentary bread and butter

Pork Pate Terrine w/ Pan de Mie, Pickled Onions and Coriander salad


Cured hamachi, papaya w/ white grape jelly 

paired with Sauvignon Blanc, Hawkies bay NZ


Confit Ocean Trout w/ Saffron braised Chick Peas and Tomato Air 

paired w/ Pinot Grigio Delle venezie, Italy


Confit Duck Leg, Apricot Pistachio Crumble, Cardamom Cream, Poached Pear and sweet potato gnocchi


Cherry Cheesecake w/ White chocolate and olive oil ice cream 

paired w/ Moscato d' Asti


Cinnamon Parfait w/ Apple clouds and honey powder


Bill presentation is love!

We enjoyed everything especially my main course, the ocean trout, which was my favorite dish of all. The place, food, service and of course the company made it another memorable lunch in Hong Kong. 

What i wore:
Bershka Blazer I Random white top I Zara skirt
Maud Frizon shoes I YSL bag

Valentines Date at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon

It's already March and i'm just writing about my valentine's date! :D I've been busy the past couple of weeks preparing for Jean & Rosz's summer shoe collection! Hopefully you'll all love it, and i can't wait to share them (hint: think neons and color blocking). Anyways, back to my valentine's, K and I spent it at Hong Kong, we don't usually celebrate valentine's and make a big fuss about it, honestly i don't get the hype that comes with it (sorry!) BUT when you spend it someplace else, now that's a different story! haha ;) K surprised me with a trip to Hong Kong and a reservation at L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon, i was really surprised coz like i've said we don't make a big fuss over valentine's day, but a nice surprise i might add! I've heard great reviews with the restaurant so i was very excited! Upon entering, you'll be greeted by a friendly host and escorted to your seat. We chose the bar area because you'll be able to see the  chef's in action there. It's like watching Top Chef but i get to eat the food! Everything we ordered came out so beautifully plated, but there were some hits and misses with the food.
