Grub: Mostly French and Italian: pasta, pizza, fondue.
Vibe: This is a small bistro with a post-industrial colour scheme of steel and black. A large wrought iron sculpture guards the door. The tables are high and seating is on stools. When the weather permits, the whole front opens, allowing a sense of al fresco dining and a view across the harbour towards the Tsing Ma bridge.
Who to bring: It has a young, trendy feel, so it's a good place to hang out with a bunch of school friends.
What's hot: It's not a large menu, but it does cater for a range of tastes. We'd decided to share a starter and were torn between escargots, and cheese quiche. We went for the latter, which was bursting with cheesy flavour - thanks, we were told, to the cheeses which are shipped weekly from Italy.
We followed with a roast chicken salad, which was strips of chicken on a bed of tomato, egg, crisp lettuce and celery. The chicken itself was fragrant with rosemary - it can also be ordered as a main course.
