Set on the harbourfront with a large terrace perfect for enjoying cocktails while watching the sun set over the islands, this new eatery is in the spot that Maze Grill occupied.

We started with an Alaska sour (HK$118) – a refreshing white rum, sage, coconut, chartreuse yellow and lime cocktail before settling into what was to become a delicious feast. We began with sharing plates of Yorkshire asparagus, gently poached with four-day cured eggs and a mustard and shallot dressing, followed by perfectly cooked seared scallops with crispy pork belly, curried cauliflower purée, capers and raisins (HK$218).

The steak tartare with grilled sourdough (HK$158) came next. Made with Australian fillet, the steak tartare was prepared tableside mixed with egg yolk, chopped shallots and capers, and finished with Worcestershire and Tabasco. It had the right balance of taste and texture. The stunning salad of French beans, truffle aioli, watercress and Parmesan (HK$138) included cooked baby artichokes garnished with 24-month Parmesan and toasted hazelnuts, and was a light interlude before the heavy meat dishes arrived.

The sea bass was the best we have tried, pan-fried to perfection, sitting on crushed potatoes mixed with chives and butter with a poached lobster on top and served with lobster bisque. This is the one to go back for.
