Due to the dinner ban again, Arbor has a new afternoon tasting menu based on Nordic Christmas(HKD368 again a bargain for 2 star Michelin restaurant). Overall, this menu was more satiating than their last afternoon tasting menu and definitely has a heavier focus on desserts. Most surprising was Chef Can Raty came to introduce some of the dishes.The Karelian Pie was more like a bread. The blend of Japanese rice and cheese inside matched the earthy flavors of crust.

The Karelian Pie was more like a bread. The blend of Japanese rice and cheese inside matched the earthy flavors of crust. Their butter also contained egg yolk and the mentaiko added another of flavor to it. The pickle at the end was a lovely way to prepare us for the next dish.
I have to say for this dish, despite the meatballs were seasoned perfectly and springy, the mashed potatoes were the star. It was rich and creamy and so fine it was almost like butter itself.
After the rich dish, the first dessert Snowball came. It was mainly to refresh our palate and was more on the tart side with its lime base. Even the meringue on top had yogurt on it. However, there is also a white chocolate as well so you don't have to worry it being too tart.
Their famous madeleine came next fresh from the oven. They explained it was fermented with the addition of sake. It was just as great as I remembered last time.
The last two desserts were definitely the grand finale. The hazelnut sandwich was actually a macaron with hazelnut fillings with espresso jelly. To ensure it doesn't become too sweet, they also added sea salt to it to give it a more balanced flavor. For their gingerbread, besides the rich chocolate filling, they added citrus to the gingerbread as well to ensure it won't become too spicy.
