Steaking a claim

The Castelo Restaurant Group, which operates Jaspas, Pepperonis and Cru, recently opened Wagyu in what were previously the premises of Wyndham Thai. As you might expect, the meaty namesake plays a prominent role on the menu: there are Wagyu beef koftas (HK$110), Wagyu mini pies (HK$110), Wagyu burgers (HK$120), salt-crusted Wagyu beef strips (HK$110) and Wagyu fillets, sirloins and rump steaks (far left; from 240 grams to 360 grams). The rich, well-marbled beef is imported from Australia. Non-beef eaters have plenty to choose from, too, with dishes such as Pacific prawn cocktail (HK$110), Nicoise salad (HK$95), pizzas (HK$120) and pastas (HK$120-HK$150).

Wagyu is at shop 3, G/F, The Centrium, 60 Wyndham Street, Central, tel: 2525 8805.
