香巴拉

A small restaurant in the popular SOHO area, which serves vegetarian Italian cuisine. Sounds unique ! Well, the dishes and tastes are also unique, which you cannot repeat anywhere in Hong Kong.Its a very small restaurant, with one big center dining table enough for a big family of 10 or 12 back home, but here you have to share this table with other customers. Its a unique dining experience and not an uncomfortable one.There is a big menu on one wall , with drinks menu on edge of the ceiling.The menu is constantly changing which makes it worth going again and again. The portions are average , enough to share between 2-3 people.Have tried many dishes here, and none of them are bad. Some of them are little rebellious if the Italians came to know about it.1. Japanese Plum PastaA fusion of Japanese and Italian, as the name suggests it combines Japanese sour plum with an olive oil based pasta with seaweed. Maybe not a cup of tea for everyone, but its worth trying if you love Japanese cuisine. And a thumbs up to Herbivores for thinking out of the box.2. Pesto Sauce PastaIts literally an evergreen pasta , and if you are in no mood to experiment then go ahead with this. Its a nice creamy in rich pesto sauce, which would melt away in your mouth.3. Avocado RollNow comes a Mexican-Italian fusion. This appetizer may have European combination of ingredients but its presented like a sushi. But its a nice appetizer to warm up your appetite.And there are other pastas, vegetarian mushroom steak, tofu main courses, caprese, bruschetta, soup of the day.In all there is a wide range in the menu, and its upto your mood of the day to choose your dishes.The staff is friendly and with 1 or 2 servers catering to you.The male restroom is worth a visit , to see how Hong Kong utilizes each and every inch in this space crunch city !Never tried their brunch, but have heard good reviews from those who have had their brunch there.Definitely not a place for group dining, but a different experience for a couple or two.…查看更多

環境舒適素材特別傾計之選沿電動電梯上半山，遇到很多西方人仕，相信是香港最多西方人居住的地方。餐廳很易找到。環境舒適，女服務員有很多笑容，細心介紹，這點我會加分。炸芝士條，外脆內軟，喜歡吃芝士人士，必選。TOFU BOX ($188) 在這餐廳來說價格較高，特別不過沒有特別好味的感覺，造型好特別但係豆腐味不強。紫菜意粉，不錯，但沒有好食感，…查看更多

朋友請食生日飯，帶我食清啲，原來係全素食，第一次試全素嘅西餐。朋友預先book咗枱，其實weekday無咩人，但book咗就有個corner位自己一張枱，否則就係店中間嘅大長枱，或者門口outside table。食物嘅份量其實好小，所以我地2個人都叫咗4款野食。味道唔錯，仲叫咗2杯cocktail飲，好refresh！…查看更多

It was a day of crazy shopping at Central. After “fighting” for several hours, we realised that it was the time to eat something. We knew that there are lots of restaurants around Staunton Street and we finally chose one we had not been.It was very quiet during the afternoon with just several foreigners sitting in. Thus it seems a perfect moment to undertake my photo shooting again.It is a slide of a vegetarian mushroom pizza without sufficient ingredients added on it. Taste is too light with just a little bit of something like tomato sauce, and I do not recommend this anyway.Avocado dip was a very little crispy appetizer for me to get prepared for the main courses, while the taste is nonsense however. Generally speaking, risotto is simply creamy rice or porridge which its creaminess mainly comes from the starch contained in the rice itself, hence the texture is very much different from the rice we usually eat.When comparing mango risotto and truffle risotto, I would prefer the latter because, firstly, the former tastes like being nothing special at all. The second point I wanna make is that the truffle smells really cool where it indeed has a very rich truffle smell, though a bit lighten when I actually ate it. I would say it is needed to add a little more of seasoning to make it even richer in taste. Both were creamy enough and I am satisfied with the texture.This is called “fried corn sticks” which has not yet been sold to customers. The waiter told us that they had worked out a piece of new dish that wanted some customers to feedback on it. 12 pieces of fried corn sticks are used to constitute a building block with 6 levels. The presentation is quite good though not an innovative attempt. These were deep-fried generating a relatively crispy texture, yet cooled down a bit when delivering to us. I thought it was a new try of special French fries or something made by potato. Nevertheless when I got a bit closer to it, there was a quite strong corn flavour coming to me, and the taste is sweet, yet not as special as I thought.…查看更多

Herbivores 草食性動物Carnivores 肉食性動物Omnivores 雜食性動物小學時代已學過草食、肉食和雜食這個概念，中學時代在生物課學到了這幾個詞彙的英文單字，對這個概念又有了不同的詮釋。人類是雜食性動物，既可以吃肉，也可以吃素。隨著人類的發展，城市的人越來越富有，對肉類的需求不斷上升。為了滿足人對肉食的渴求，樹林裡的樹木都被砍伐，土地開發成農場。本來人類可以直接食用的農作物成為了畜牧的養份，令到生態失衡。來到Herbivores不禁叫人概嘆一番，還好尚有人在努力推廣素食，為這個地球出一分力。Herbivores提供純素及蛋奶素菜式。決心成為純素食主義者後，一直都避免碰到蛋和奶。不過當和朋友小聚時，為免朋友有太多顧慮，我通常都不會太堅持的不讓他們點蛋奶類食物，反正自己不吃就是了。剛進餐廳時有點錯愕，小小的店裡有一張大餐桌，另外還有一張較小的餐桌自成一個。我們三人被安排與另外幾組食客同坐在大餐桌，有點像在茶樓裡搭枱的感覺，但卻沒有那種吵吵鬧鬧的場景，大家都在各自的小角落裡享用晚餐。Herbivores的自家餐具餐牌上註明了純素和蛋奶素的款式，讓大家按自己飲食習慣點菜。由於小店的負荷能力有限，所以上菜需要較多時間，不過美食是值得等待的。等候期間先喝喝酒精飲料，與友人一起聊聊天，欣賞一下店裡的環境，也是一番樂事。芒果意大利飯先送上的是芒果意大利飯。本來是想要點黑松露意大利飯，不過看到這從沒聽說過的芒果意大利飯，當然要來點新意思。芒果十分清新，並未因烹調過而變酸，依然維持那份香甜。配合松子仁和香草，整個意大利飯都洋溢著夏天的味道。與芒果糯米飯是完全不同的味道，甜度剛好讓這個飯變成了主菜而非甜品，清淡之選。大啡菇扒點菜時偷瞄了其他食客的食物一下，看到一個很吸引的大啡菇，馬上就點了這道菜。剛送上桌就嗅到陣陣烤菇的香味，令人垂涎三尺，待相機吃飽後就迫不及待把這大大的菇分吃了。烤過的菇十分香，外面乾身內裡卻juicy得不得了，每一口都是享受。除了大啡菇這個主角外，一眾配角都很出色，差點還蓋過了主角的風頭，不得不提的就是壓在大啡菇下的那堆薯蓉。吃了一口後覺得美味得不得了，害羞的我也終於忍不住問了店家這薯蓉有甚麼秘密。原來薯蓉裡混有薏米，沒想到西餐也會用上這種中式材料。薏米有去水腫和美白的功效，實在是女人恩物。黃金芋條除了主菜外，小食也是每頓飯不可或缺的一員。餐牌上一個黃金芋條吸引了我們的眼球，薯條吃很多了，芋條還是第一次吃。本來店家說已經完賣，還好後來再三確認後原來還有一客，不用空歡喜一場。剛炸好的芋條賣相不俗，因為芋頭比薯仔飽肚，所以不適合做得太粗，而這個芋條的粗幼度就來得剛剛好。這種香脆可口的小食吃人停不了嘴，一條又一條的往嘴裡送，有夠邪惡的。女生的飯局總是會以甜品作為終結。因為沒有仔細看餐牌，不清楚哪道甜品是有蛋奶的，果然吃飯也不能太鬆懈。一道黃金卷的賣相像捲起來烤過的pancake，再伴以吉士醬和新鮮雜莓。吉士醬的味道比較淡，嚐不出那種牛奶的味道，希望是沒有加牛奶的。這道甜品的味道並沒有特別出色，如果是有蛋奶的話就不需要點了。Herbivores的整個環境都令人非常舒適，不知不覺就在這裡坐上兩個多小時。不同的食客不斷進進出出，每個都帶著笑容，或者這是Herbivores的功力，又或者是素食的魔力。…查看更多

I booked this place for a 12:45 lunch with an ex-coworker as we want to go with something light and vegg. seems like a good choice.  When we arrive, we saw the big table is taken by a big group and people had to make room for our arrival.  We quickly ordered the risottos.  I think the rest. did not expect a full house and hence we waited for an hour but the main course did not come.  My friend needed to rush back to the office by 2pm, so she ended up not eating - just had the salad and drink.  I managed to bring our mains as takeaways.  My Thai Curry Risottos was nice and hot when I got to the office so that was good.  The curry flavour blended well with the ingredients and risottos were well cooked.  It would have been nice to eat that in the restaurant.  I got to try my friend's Herbivores Fried Risottos which was not my cup of tea.  It had beans in it and resembled mexican / carribean cuisine which I am not fond of.  Anyway, it could have been a good meal when we had enough time to enjoy it.  However, unfortunately, as busy Central-ers, time is a luxury we cannot afford to waste especially during lunch time.…查看更多

Friend said he was going to treat me dinner and I told him to pick a nice vegetarian place. I always love the anticipation of creativity and surprises in vegetarian restaurants, annd The Herbivores did not disappoint me!It was a cozy small restaurant. We made a reservation but since the place wasn't full when we arrved, we were told to pick our own seats. We ordered a potato and carrot soup and two main courses. The potato and carrot soup was rich and was very well-seasoned with herbs. It had a stronger taste of potato than carrot. Overall speaking I liked this simple yet rich soup of the day. My friend ordered a Truffle Truffle. It was a truffle rissoto. Presented with a nice, yet not too overwhelming fragrant of truffle, the risoto was just the right portion. I tried a spoon. It was very nice and wa slightly chewy.I ordered a grilled portobello. I've always love portobello, and the mix of ingredients in this makes it a fun and satifying dining experience. Grilled carrots, tomatoes, portobello, mashed truffled potato... Very yum …查看更多

草食男，就是像食草動物一樣，他們友善溫和，但在婚戀關係上卻總少了些男子漢應有的主動。他們最大的特徵就是不會積極主動地去追求，而喜歡保持不溫不火的步調和女孩子在一起……從聖誕打後就一直沒停過的大魚大肉。下週要做定期body check了， 還是適宜吃些健康的食物純化一下身體。（這算是純粹為了自我感覺良好的舉動吧？）星期一的午後二時多與仮面五號來到這兒，原意是想吃下午茶。怎料服務員說食店沒有下午茶套餐供應，但三時前仍然可以order set lunch。除了set lunch, 也有單點項目可以選擇，不過價錢並不便宜，單點似乎還是比較適合留給晚飯時段。Herbivores是一間素食店，所以千萬別期望這兒會有肉食，英文店名改得很好。食店在銅鑼灣亦有分店，但有趣的地方是，銅鑼灣的分店為自己取了一個中文的名字一香巴拉，但是中環的第一店非但不以香巴拉自名，餐牌更沒有任何中文字，看來是主攻外語人士市場不差。香巴拉在梵語中是極樂世界的意思，跟草食性動物Herbivore其實沒有甚麼關係。其實已經過了中區的午飯繁忙時間，所以食客都已走得七七八八，可以靜靜的在這兒享用食物。食店面積不大，中間一張大長方形桌，旁邊一張小桌，食客難免要share table用膳。最後還是點了午餐 ($98)。頭盤選了餐湯。是日餐湯是西蘭花洋蔥忌廉湯。湯用一個別緻的湯碗盛着，湯碗旁邊有個巧妙的設計可以套着湯匙，餐湯份量不小。西蘭花已被打得稀爛溶入忌廉湯內， 肉眼已經看不出任何西蘭花的痕跡。一口湯，很有厚度，亦滿有西蘭花的菜香及忌廉香，做得不錯， 若果可以有麵包會更好。主菜有數款選擇，最後選了扁意粉。意粉上桌時上面鋪滿厚厚的紫菜。不過這些都是即食紫菜，不算是廚房功夫。紫菜是要與意粉拌勻同吃的。紫菜易變腍所以比較適合最後才與熟食混在一起進食。意粉本身混有椰菜，蘿蔔，洋葱與什菌。扁意粉煮得彈牙有嚼口，加入了日式醬汁令意粉味道甜中帶有少許醋味，整碟意粉一點也不油膩，亦充分吸收了醬汁的味道，相當不錯。既然一場來到，也決定來個甜品一試。從menu中看到這道叫牛油果芝士餅的甜品，立時被吸引著。牛油果及芝士向來都是偏向較膩的食材，很少見到坊間會將它們拼合成甜品，這兒有甚麼法寶把它們弄在一起呢？決定點它來一試。甜品到來，是一件份量很小的切餅。一層海綿蛋糕上加一層牛油果芝士，最頂頂一件小馬卡龍，就是這樣。其實以$48的價錢，差不多與外面那些甜品cake shop看齊，我還真是期望食店至少可以在份量上或心思上多花多點功夫，就算在碟上綉一道朱古力花也好，加幾件生果也好，總好過甚麼也沒有就這樣一件切餅上桌吧……不過賣相還是其次，好吃與否才是最重要。用叉切一片蛋糕細嚐。說老實我是很怕一些死甜的甜品。甜品的甜度最緊要適中，對一些比較輕盈的甜品我也會很欣賞。但無論如何，甜品的固有因素一定要甜。但這道芝士蛋糕呢？上層的芝士層完全沒甜味可言。吃進口只可僅僅感受到那牛油果的淡盈味道，差點也感受不到芝士味的存在。真的要說甜味的話，勉強只可從那底層的海綿蛋糕及小馬卡龍感受出來。吃罷蛋糕，完全不覺吃了一道甜點，只是吃了一些東西落肚。(回歸途中到麥記給八元吃了一個抹茶新地，味道普通，毫無抹茶味道可言，但總算還是一道甜品)。餐飲可加八元轉cappuccino，我也點了來一試。上桌時咖啡沒有任何拉花，有點失望。咖啡本身奶泡層做得不錯。用上玻璃杯更易看見奶泡的厚度。呷了一啖奶泡也不會令奶泡層塌下。不過咖啡本質味道就相對普通，咖啡味道略嫌不夠淳厚，令咖啡餘韻不足。綜合覺得食店食物OK (但當日的那道甜品需要改進)，不過食物價錢定價偏高，客人入座後又沒有主勤為食客提供飲用水，不夠體貼。看見旁邊的一對外藉女士對是日午餐讚不絶口，還要與厨師見一面勉勵一下。我看未免有點兒誇張，莫非米芝蓮就是這樣煉成的？…查看更多

其實很少在中環食飯, 總覺得價位不太親民, 口味很"鬼佬"。, 這晚難得走到蘭桂坊附近吃DINNER, 發現了這間外表看似CAFE 的小店, 原來是一間"鬼佬齋舖" , 店內感覺幾舒服之餘, 味道仲很好呢~其實... 我初時以為這兒賣點是有機食品(有菜有肉的), 但原來全都是有機素食!!店內裝修簡約, 一邊是blackboard menu, 一邊是讓客人放衣飾的掛勾。中間放了一張大枱, 約十至十二人可以坐, 如果想私隱度高少少, 可以選corner的四人枱。但座位實在十分有限, 最好還是要預先book 位。我們先點了一杯飲品及兩款主菜, 先上的是薄菏朱古力及 Omelette Fusilli近期身邊那位真的很愛薄菏朱古力, 而這次點的真的可說是最好飲的三甲之一。朱古力濃度適中外, 薄菏份量亦剛好, 不會很"假" 的牙膏冰涼味道, 而且texture 很滑, 飲完會有點滿足感。薄薄的蛋餅包着熱哄哄的茄汁什菌螺絲粉, 分量不算太大, 但作一人份量的dinner 剛好。有點覺得這個Omelette 似闊條面和蛋包飯的fusion, 日式奄列配上番茄汁已經十分令人引起食慾 (是自家製的蕃茄蓉, 不是人工那種茄汁), 螺絲粉亦做得剛好, 還有少少彈牙, 不會過淋。蛋餅很香, 什菌十分新鮮, 配上清新的沙律菜, 非常開胃。可能我們真的有點肚餓, 很快便清碟了。之後就送上另一道菜 Tofu Box, 點了菜後得waiter 介紹才知這款是招牌菜呢~黑白芝麻配上炸豆腐已經是十分香口的食品, 原來豆腐內還有流心芝士, 大大增強它的香味這豆腐盒除了本身炸到金黃色, 賣相和味道一流外, 襯底的切粒翠肉瓜, 磨菇粒配上日式豉油金菇汁亦很好味。不要以為那些沙津菜和露筍只是裝飾, 它們也是有dressing 及處理過, 也是十分新鮮及滋味的。我就再order 了多杯酸酸甜甜的 mocktail, 橙味加上青檸等, 十分 refresh~店內都是主打慢食, 放鬆地享受美食, 我們不知不覺間已坐了近 90 分鐘, 於是又想order 甜品。很可惜這天沒有餐牌上的甜品供應, 正是有點失望時....waiter (我覺得似老細多一點)為我們送上了一件小小caramel chesscake以美式造法的芝士餅質地較為硬, 不算太甜, 芝士味亦不會太重, 作為一頓晚餐的完美句號剛好。這兒的用餐氣氛和其他的食店不同, 主打慢食和小店感, 食材新鮮, 亦吃到有心的烹調。服務亦十分親切有禮, 是享愛生活那種感覺。但趕時間的香港人可能會覺得上餐慢了一點, 店的座位亦小一點。最不習慣是要share 大枱, 「搭枱」食飯, 浪漫就缺少了, 亦不能避免聽到隔離位/對面位的談話。以晚餐每位約$300的價格, 我覺得應該可以多點私隱。這是Herbivores 的理念: " Our Goal is to bring vegetarianism to Everyone, especially, to MEAT LOVERS" 吃了這頓飯後, 發現偶然食一餐green meal 都很不錯, 不一定是吃沙律才是素食~…查看更多

週末，睡醒後懶懶散散的和閨蜜吃個早午餐最愜意不過。Soho這一帶餐廳林立，這一天，被Herbivores透亮的落地窗和大大的木製餐台吸引，看看餐牌也有很少見的Polenta，決定一試。雖然已到中午，陰沈沈的天氣讓人都昏昏欲睡，要一杯咖啡提神才行。coffee latte, 沒有華麗的拉花，卻有很不錯的味道。奶打得很好，溫度合適，不會燙口，奶泡細膩均勻，入口香滑。咖啡中度烘焙，不苦不澀，入口溫順，只需要在套餐價格上多加八蚊即可。前菜方面，要了我喜歡的Zucchini Roll. 端上來，擺盤非常雅緻，zucchini似白色玉帶鑲綠邊，包裹白色芝士，最上面加松子點綴，盤底是oliver oil和balsamic vinage，厚重卻飄逸。味道上，zucchini清爽新鮮，口感爽脆，裡面的芝士，口味很淡，適合絕大多數人，特別是害怕芝士濃味的，這個也完全能接受。最上面的松子，除了視覺點綴，味道上多了堅果的香味。整道菜是清淡的，我喜歡沾balsamic vinage，香甜可口。Weekend Brunch有五款選擇，價格128蚊經濟實惠，我們點了最經典的Egg Benedict和不多見Spinach Polenta。Avocado Egg Benedict：中規中矩，muffin，tomato, avocado, poach egg and 蛋黃醬和香草碎，自下而上疊起。poach egg是重點，火候恰到好處，劃破表層蛋白，蛋黃傾瀉流出，相信此情此景很多人都很喜歡。牛油果味淡，但異常順滑，很飽滿的口感。番茄很厚一片，雙面都事先煎過，而非直接切完就擺進去，細節之處都做得很好。整個egg benedict的味道足夠收貨，分量也很夠。Spinach Polenta Cake是讓我眼前一亮的，一來做polenta的餐廳不多，二來除了菠菜，菇類和蘆筍也是我所愛的食材，新鮮美味又健康。端上來，第一眼還是被漂亮的擺盤所吸引，看著已經很享受。Polenta很棒，水分的比例很合適，既能凝結成Cake，又不會才幹，spinach穿插其中，雖然不很多，但菠菜的新鮮味道是可以嘗到的。蘆筍是很棒的部分，很新鮮脆口，煮得剛剛好。菇類用橄欖油炒香，美味又健康。Brunch的當日甜品是Creme Brulee，與傳統的烘烤碗，或者木質容器不同，這裡用了方形的金屬盒（很可能是鋁盒吧），又一次推陳出新，表面caramel很薄很甜，焦糖味十足。下面的蛋香滑順口，香甜的蛋味，加上牛奶的乳香，真是美味，甜度也很適中，不會太過甜膩。食物太美太好吃，我們實在是意猶未盡，又叫了一個甜品Coco & Slasa，是新鮮芒果和熱情果奶凍。奶凍很香很滑，和Creme Brulee同一水準，上面的芒果和熱情果香甜，味道清新可口。好滿足的週末早午餐，無論是視覺還是味覺，都很享受，價格也適中，日後一定會再來！…查看更多

Went to this lovely place for a meal after work on a Friday for some relaxing and unwinding. My friend and I thought to try a vegetarian place as we felt like a change. The place was a little small, but was very cosy and service was great, perfect for a Friday night meal! For starters, my friend and I picked a pumpkin and carrot soup, which tasted really fresh and nice, and not too salty. For the main I picked a mango rissoto, and it had a good blend of sweet, sour and savouring flavours no  very good rissoto dish which lacked difference to a normal rissoto fish from other places with meat! For dissert we ordered a coco and salsa pudding which is suitable for vegans. The dressers was very tasty, not too sweet, and bearing no difference to disserts not suitable for vegans! Overall despite it being a little expensive, I would recommend anyone to try this restaurant out, whether you are a vegetarian/ vegan or not! As a meat lover I throughly enjoyed the food here and didn't feel I was not consumjng any meat! I also felt was worth the money. …查看更多

健康主意大行其道，經常也見到Green Monday。這個星期一我們也加入健康行列，擺脫男生們，4個女生去Herbivores吃午飯。很細間餐廳，一進門只是一張長木枱，旁邊有4人位，但人客不多，不用等位。感覺有點兒逼，但裝修很有格調。店內雖小，卻有酒吧，五臟俱全。Lunch set可以選daily soup 或 mixed green salad。主菜有3款，最後有指定的甜品。生菜很新鮮，加上橄欖油和黑醋，清新又開胃，但單調了一點。是日的餐湯是南瓜蕃茄湯，很濃的蕃茄味，夾著南瓜香，又夠稠，真材實料。Yaki Pasta with Porcini - Porcini, mix mushroom, carrot, cabbage, red chilli, seaweed彈牙的扁意粉，面層有淡淡的紫菜調一調味，下面則帶菇菌味，清清地都不錯。友人嫌太淡，不太喜歡。Spinach & Pumpkin Risotto - Spinach cream, grilled pumpkin, pumpkin puree, peanutRisotto非常出色，賣相精緻之外，味道也甚佳。啖啖都是鮮甜的南瓜味，夾雜香滑的忌廉味。南瓜蓉跟忌廉混在一起，口感幼滑。灑上一小撮松子仁，更能帶出南瓜香。一口接一口，不想停下來。味道和口感也十分滿意。如果意大利飯可以煮得中間帶多一點點硬，就完美。是日甜品，椰子panna cotta。清甜的椰子香，沒有多餘的甜味。做法令panna cotta比一般的稀。值得一讚脆米很脆，證明了是即做的。只有薄薄的一層，但吃完卻覺得份量剛好。這裡的餐具很精緻很特別，每一道菜的餐具都各有不同，看著可愛的餐具，食慾都好D。老遠走到soho，卻是值得的。食物有水準，靜靜的環境，店員又友善。唯一的問題是，實在太慢了。雖明白小店資源有效，所有order一次過做，而且食物保證新鮮。可是，等了起碼20分鐘才上主菜，很快地吃完主菜和甜品趕回去，還是遲到了。本想買個甜品回去，不用等的，暫時只有cupcake供應，個人對cupcake興趣不大，總是覺得太甜，中看不中吃。店員卻主動提議送我們cupcake回去試試，還有自製的曲奇。曲奇的味道不錯，但咬下去很腍，口感平平。反而cupcake令人驚喜。很怕檸檬味甜點，但這檸檬cupcake帶淡淡的自然的檸檬味，又幾好食。而且frosting是cream cheese，不會很甜，反帶點芝士香。離開前店員說對它很有信心，果然沒有介紹錯，有機會一定會再去。…查看更多
