I visited this small restaurant on a Sunday. I went there at 16:30. It was my first time there. The menu on the outside gave the impression that the restaurant was fairly expensive. A pasta/risotto was around 150. So I think it's fair to say that this was not a cheap place. I mean, for lunch, $120 would be considered as somewhat expensive. But still reasonable. But $150 would be a bit too much. Anyway, I decided to give it a try. I walked into the restaurant. There were not many customers (not a surprise given the slightly exorbitant price!) Five customers apart from me. Four staff were hovering around. I found a seat. The atmosphere was nice. It was quiet and it was relaxing. The staff were not rude. Perhaps the most outstanding thing about this restaurant is that there is a small wooden animal toy on each table. I found a painted cow figure on my table (see the attached picture). It's cute. On the next table there was a little bird. Since the restaurant was a vegetarian one, the place felt peaceful. Indeed upon reflection one realises that there seems to be a connection between eating meat and violence. Perhaps eating meat is participating in violence against animals such as cows and pigs.

The taste was okay. It couldn't be bad given the high price! Taste was okay; the decor of the restaurant was superb. I kind of felt like there was this feminine energy (i.e. warm and soft vibe) in the restaurant. Overall I think the place is really a nice place for enjoying a much-needed rest for Hongkongers who work too hard.…Read More
