適逢🐝生日,🐝🦒去今年拎咗Michelin 1星🌟嘅cozy餐廳Racines慶祝。兩位主廚細細個就認識,一齊喺法國Michelin餐廳同各自喺香港嘅Shangri- La同Four Seasons做。再一齊拍檔開咗呢間Racines (Roots in French)南法餐廳,用食物帶領我地番去佢地嘅Roots🇫🇷Chef同Staff都好熱情,每上一個菜都會詳細介紹,食到一半會走黎同你吹吹水。又叫你揀刀然後講番嗰故事你知,好似去咗場法國之旅☺️Genese 6 $1,688pp首先上嘅係Sourdough🍞配上自製嘅Smoked butter with plum jam🧈。Sourdough mix咗4種seeds,上而crunchy嘅skin脆到好似cracker咁,而內裏非常非常軟熟🥺無論係flavour同texture🐝🦒都覺得係unbeatable!!!💯🦒:係我食過最好食嘅sourdough🤣Amuse bouche 有3道,最令🐝深刻嘅係雞肝Parfait,既creamy滑溜又濃郁,加上mustard seed aftertaste好有層次感。不過唔食內臟嘅🦒表示唔識欣賞🤣

第一道course係Spanish大紅蝦。聽到Staff介紹用咗Nice嘅薰衣草橄欖油去烹調🪻我地add on 加嘅魚子醬連埋lemon zest同鹽之花細碎顆粒嘅口感令成個dish加咗好多分🥹

之後有3道refreshing嘅dish同甜品。其中傳統法式甜品Madeleine🥧裝喺Chef家鄉出產嘅鐵盒入面,送上黎嘅時候仲係暖笠笠好香奶油味🥰入口鬆軟,口感綿密,🐝好中意🫶🏻

食食下,staff仲唱住生日歌遞咗個chocolate cake,隔離枱嘅客人又跟住唱,搞到🐝紅都面哂🥵
然後隔離枱又係慶祝生日,到我地唱番歌比隔離枱🤣
最後Staff送上兩張Chef hometown嘅postcard💌
雖然黎緊8月係去Paris唔係南法,但之後有機會好想去南法一嘗美食🐟🦐🦪同睇薰衣草🪻

Overall係一個舒服casual嘅fine dining experience🤤Complex flavour in simple dishes,由Sourdough到Dessert都感受到兩位Chef對佢地Roots嘅熱愛❤️

餐廳氣氛好好,staff同chef都好friendly。食物有驚喜,雖然係溫馨小酒館,但食物水準好高,比酒店餐廳更高😆 一開始黎左個麵包好好食,好大個,新鮮出爐,配佢地自己整嘅牛油實在太好味!都未開始已經食左半個😂 菜式都比較輕盈清新唔會話好漏。甜品都好特別,健康清新,係artichoke 🤣絕對會再去的法式餐廳🥰7個course$1788,埋單$2500/位,有叫酒同加左白松露同魚子醬😆我本身係唔食法式個種乳鴿,怕有種血腥嘅感覺。但佢呢間個乳鴿整得好食,一啲血腥味都冇好彩有試到。乳鴿係佢地signature dish

呢間餐廳係無意中發現嘅~ 兩位總廚係來自Four Seasons同Island Shangri-La HK🫶🏻 所以由佢地出手嘅食物都有返咁上下質素架😊

🔈上主菜前主廚會有一盒刀比客人揀自己想要邊把刀食主菜 覺得幾特別
🔈臨走前餐廳會送每人佢地自製嘅餐前麵包
🔈餐牌會經常轉 我一個星期去左2次已經換左餐牌

唯二我覺得唔係幾好嘅就係1️⃣餐廳偏細所以會坐得逼少少 同埋2️⃣價錢偏少貴

⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

🍸genèse - 5 courses🍸 HKD1,388

Oyster ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Red Mullet ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Pigeon ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Clachitou ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Strawberry sorbet ⭐️⭐️⭐️

🍸plénitude - 7 courses🍸 HKD1,788

Mackerel ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Artichoke ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Zucchini ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Red Mullet ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Wagyu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ossau Iraty ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fennel sorbet ⭐️⭐️⭐️

⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯⋯

小編的話:

唔好睇佢每一碟個份量好似好少咁 小編食5 courses都已經好飽啦~真心覺得呢間餐廳啲食物好好食🤤 雖然埋單嗰陣少肉赤 但係呢個價食到咁高質嘅食物 突然覺得都值得😋

“plénitude” 7-course dinner tasting menu
$1,788 per person
+$888 for 5 gls of wine pairing

The dining experience at Racines (meaning “roots” in French), is about friendship, and about 2 long-time friends, Chef Adrien Castillo and Chef Romain Dupeyre, taking us back to their roots, which is the South of France. Aside from the chefs’ excellent storytelling skills, another thing I liked a lot was the casual and cozy vibe at Racines, which isn’t that common in HK’s fine dining scene.

From the exquisite amuse bouche (the chicken liver pate truffle ball is amazing 🤤), to the very famous (and photogenic!) sourdough paired with the homemade smoked butter with plum, to the flavorful and delicious oyster & caviar, carabineros and foie gras starters, to the heartier monkfish and pigeon courses, to the 2 amazing desserts (I really loved the clacibitou ice cream, which was actually more like a dessert when mixed with rockets and pineapple haha) and lastly to the cute mignardises presented in vintage biscuit boxes, again repping the roots of the 2 chefs, the “plénitude” menu showed us to a gustatory journey of culinary excellence. Definitely will be back!

Taste: 👅👅👅👅
Value for Money: 💰💰💰1/2
Service: 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Will I go again? Yes

Chef Romain及Chef Adrien開的Racines雖然營業不久, 但已吸引不少老饕, 週末的午市也長期處於客滿狀態. 兩位在Petrus及Caprice等星級法國食肆工作過, 身經百戰, 實力不會有問題. 我反而感興趣的是, 當法式Fine Dining在香港成行成市時, 他倆用什麼吸引我們的胃, Racines在法文解作”根”, 兩位出身在圖盧茲及尼斯的南法地方, 自然希望用他們的本土做法, 帶我們尋找他們的美食之根源. 餐廳地方不大, 但裝修精緻, 特別是一入門口的上面的樹根裝飾, Eye Catching之餘也很代表客廳. Chef Romain及Chef Adrien兩位合作, 前者很Energetic, 很喜歡和食客交流, 是餐廳的門面擔當; 後者烹調時沉實而專注, 一剛一柔, 相當有趣.三道菜的Set Lunch接近一千元, 定價比很多星級食肆來得進取, 食物質素相當不錯, 只是侍應服務並非不Sincere, 只是有時有點混亂, 而且餐廳氣溫偏高, 坐在Chef Table感覺真的有點熱. 菜式方面以來自Brittany的乳鴿最有驚喜, 終於不是烤三黃雞(笑)

Chef Romain及Chef Adrien開的Racines雖然營業不久, 但已吸引不少老饕, 週末的午市也長期處於客滿狀態. 兩位在Petrus及Caprice等星級法國食肆工作過, 身經百戰, 實力不會有問題. 我反而感興趣的是, 當法式Fine Dining在香港成行成市時, 他倆用什麼吸引我們的胃, Racines在法文解作”根”, 兩位出身在圖盧茲及尼斯的南法地方, 自然希望用他們的本土做法, 帶我們尋找他們的美食之根源. 餐廳地方不大, 但裝修精緻, 特別是一入門口的上面的樹根裝飾, Eye Catching之餘也很代表客廳. Chef Romain及Chef Adrien兩位合作, 前者很Energetic, 很喜歡和食客交流, 是餐廳的門面擔當; 後者烹調時沉實而專注, 一剛一柔, 相當有趣.

三道菜的Set Lunch接近一千元, 定價比很多星級食肆來得進取, 食物質素相當不錯, 只是侍應服務並非不Sincere, 只是有時有點混亂, 而且餐廳氣溫偏高, 坐在Chef Table感覺真的有點熱. 菜式方面以來自Brittany的乳鴿最有驚喜, 終於不是烤三黃雞(笑). 乳鴿先煎後焗, 口感嫩滑中保持一定紅肉的纖維感, 烤得很香帶甘甜. 配菜是茄子卷和鴨肝橄欖慕絲, 味道濃香但不死鹹. 它的麵包由上方的脆麥皮和下方的Sourdough組合而成, 很有麥香, 外脆內鬆軟, 再配以加了辣椒和梅子醬, 再煙燻過的牛油, 比絕大部份的麵包來得印象深刻.

兩道頭盤是蠔和鵝肝, 前者配以乳酪和小黃瓜, 再加上Buluga魚子醬, 酸甜極鮮, 三者互相提味, 相當開胃. 後者鵝肝打成泡沫, 配以田螺, 味道濃重之餘, 和第一道的蠔及之後的乳鴿, 味道上層層遞進. 另一道主菜鮟鱇魚, 配以瑞士甜菜及鯷魚, 再用高湯熬煮, 味道鮮甜, 口感柔軟, 吃得相當舒服. 甜品的士多啤梨雪芭上面添加辣椒粉, 比起頭盤和主菜的傳統做法, 酸甜辛辣的做法除了更醒胃, 也有一種獨特的衝擊感. 這次南法二人轉相當有趣, 也令我轉出新天地.

Racines is operated by Chef Romain and Chef Adrien who have been worked for Caprice and Petrus. No doubt on their cooking style and quality, they provided their traditional southern French style cuisines to us. The pigeon from Brittany is one of the best in HK with baked and grilled together. With the foie gras mousse and eggplant, it tastes so rich. The sourdough bread with crispy skin is also special from others. The chef teams are so energetic and homey that we enjoy so much.

呢間特色小店
其實都算係臥虎藏龍
兩位鬼佬嘅故事唔多講
有興趣嘅朋友們可以去佢嘅餐廳網頁睇吓
咁就基本上呢就係
呢兩位仁兄,累積多年米芝蓮經驗
將法國兩邊嘅美食特色帶來香港同亞洲

建議坐吧枱counter 面向廚房
呢個dining experience 應該係最完美
因為兩條友都幾搞笑,幾多嘢講

Book枱都有啲難度因為地方比較細
好快就滿座,建議早啲book

Sourdough 同埋個煙燻牛油幾特別
啲頭盤啊,同埋其他主菜都做得非常之好
你會感受到廚師用心去製造
唔係亂嚟,係有鋪排

好難得香港有呢啲小店
真係幾地道,有少少身在法國的感覺
鍾意周圍食嘢嘅朋友們應該一試

A couple of exquisite flavor bomb amuse bouche to kick off. Finger-sized bites that delivers in looks, taste and texture. The Truffle ball with chicken liver pate is particularly impressive.

Sourdough in a collab with local bakery, mixed with 4 different seeds and raw oats. A sourdough full of character, not only does it uniquely stamped with Racines’s logo, the thin crust top is to die for, insanely crunchy, together with immense umami aroma from the seeds, it almost tasted like seedy cracker! It’s served with a beautiful smoked butter with plum.

Love the refreshing squid salad starter, the sharp acidity wakes your palate with a deep umami ink sauce dressing rounds it up.

Inspired by chef’s experience in Thailand, the beef cheek main is literally a west and thai encounter. Never had a curry paired with a western rich beef gravy sauce, and they actually work! Red curry is mildly spicy with multiple depths of spices. Beautiful cutlery from prestige maker provided for this dish but don’t think it has been put into good use as the beef cheek is extremely tender that it can easily tear with the fork alone. It’s gelatinous and rich in beef flavor.

Gorgeous tart freshly made with beautiful caramelization on top. Distinctive layers of banana and frangipane in the tart, it’s sweet but well balanced by the bailey ice cream.

The lunch ends with adorable mignardises served in nostalgic cookie boxes, paying a final homage to Nice and Toulouse. Two heartfelt postcards attached adds another sentimental touch that set them apart from other restaurants.

It’d been a long time since I felt such excitement from dining at a small restaurant.  Given the credentials of the chefs, I'd set a high bar on the restaurant but Racines still didn’t disappoint. 

We chose the kitchen counter seats.  Throughout the course of dining, while Chef Adrien was engrossed in the cooking at the back most of the time, Chef Romaine was enthusiastically explaining to us the details of how each dish was prepared and what ingredients they used behind the counter bar.  I knew by then Racines was a special creation.  In the simple descriptions of the menu lay profound thought and ingenuity. 

【 Champagne Louis Roederer Collection 242 】

Racines offered a 2 or 3-glass wine pairing option yet I preferred choosing my own wines.  To start with, a glass of Champagne Collection 242 by Louis Roederer.  Not Cristal of course, this sparkling wine heralded a good start though honestly not quite as impressive and expressive as Louis Roederer claimed it was.

【 Sourdough from Levain Bakery | Butter 】 The multi-grain sourdough from the local artisan bakery tasted amiable and it met the highest standard for bread.  Texturally — the crispiness of the crust and moderate softness for the crumb — it spotted on.  I always suspect that sourdough in HK is adapted to the local palate, which is more used to agreeable tastes than ready to accept the challenge for their senses to new things.  This big bread in the picture was for your IG only.  A fresh one would be sliced and served.

The butter was placed on a nice dish with a lid. When the lid was opened, some hazy wisps of smoke came out of the dish.  This added some theatricality we all like these days.

Made in the shape of a leaf, the smoked butter was topped with plum jam and scattered inside out with the French Espelette pepper. On the palate, the butter showed smooth, velvety softness. I enjoyed the French pepper’s subtle smokiness and not overpowering heat very much. The sweetness of the plum went well with the piment d'Espelette too.   Racines worked miracle on a simple butter with careful combination of Espelette pepper, plum jam and smoking it. 

As an aside, Les Beurre Bordier makes excellent le beurre au piment d’Espelette as well. That’s one of the reasons I cherish every visit to Gaddi’s, which has le beurre au piment d’Espelette served all the time.  

【 Pre-appetisers — Artichoke Tart, Chicken Liver Parfait and Barba Juan 】

Beautifully prepared pre-appetisers demonstrated layers of flavours in harmony. The delicious tart and liver parfait aside, it is worth mentioning that before picking up that fried Provençal dumpling — Barba Juan as it is called —  by hand, you were advised to rub the sage with your fingers to add fragrance to your hand.

Now, the ‘antipodes’ Menu. 

【 Squid | Escabeche | Leek | Citrus 】

On top of the squid rolls were julienned carrot and leek heaped up. They were then encircled on the plate by squid ink coconut milk sauce that tasted dramatically in resemblance of Tom Yum.  That Kaffir lime leaf fragrance in the sauce not least represented a beautiful twist-and-blend but also led you through a sublime gastronomical experience in what’s supposed to be essentially French (or French-Spanish, in case you were aware of the escabeche).

Chef Romaine said he spent 2 years in Thailand. The influence was clearly shown in this appetiser that combined French cooking with Thai cuisine. He told us that Kaffir lime leaves were normally infused for their taste but he took this herb to another realm by powderising them so that he could control the exact level of aroma as he needed.  

【 Beef | Tartare | Oyster Mushroom | Soybeans | Périgord Winter Black Truffle 】

The pickled mushrooms beneath the beef gave the dish some warmth in addition to the flavoursome acidity that usually came with traditional beef tartare, whereas the milder-tasted soybeans served to give certain texture and balance out the strength of the beef tartare. The gestalt was mesmerising and I deeply savoured it. 

Adding slices of winter truffle was nice but for me the dish had been too strong in taste to complement the subdued, earthy tone and minimally minty flagrance of the truffle. It’s a nice to have though not absolutely necessary in terms of taste enhancement.

【 Golden Threadfin Bream | Bouillabaisse | Yunnan Potato | Rouille 】

The warm and beautiful bouillabaisse was poured on to the golden sea bream - don’t forget the octopus — and mingled nicely with rouille sauce, the unparalleled jewel for fish soup.  Though creamy, it was not too thick yet effusive with the deep flavours. I had no second thought using small pieces of bread to clean up the plate at the end.  A faux pas this might be but it was a sin to waste one drop of such delicious soup.

【 Justin Giradin 2020 Santenay Vielles Vignes 】For beef cheek, likely a more powerful Bordeaux suited better but my friend knew me well - I always love Burgundy.  So for me he chose Justin Giradin 2020, a Santenay VV.

For info, Racines charges corkage $800 for your own bottle but gladly waives it if you order one from their wine list.  Though not extensive, the wine collection is interesting.  If your party can consume two bottles and you have a beloved wine, you should bring your own to pair with such excellent food. 

【 Beef | Cheek | Basmati | Red Curry 】

The chef served this excellent beef cheek with light and sweet red curry from Blue Elephant and crispy basmati rice on top.  When it touched my palate, the flavours fanned out to my taste buds like light going through a spectrum.

When I got carried away by the dish, my friend asked Chef Romaine about his days at Petrus where he and me had a unhurried and beautiful lunch (if interested, please refer to my review Unhurried and Beautiful『徐緩美麗』in March 2022, written in Chinese though 🙄).  This main reminded us of Petrus’s French Lamb Shoulder, Eggplant, Caponata, Ras el Hanout.   Chef Romaine said they still do the lamb at Petrus. 

Both dishes shared a punch in taste alike and both were eclectic in style yet diverged from cuisines of two different regions.  The lamb shoulder at Petrus came with the influence of the Middle East while today’s beef cheek told a story about an elegant and beautiful Thailand built upon a very French beef dish. 

After the Petrus lunch last year I called Chef Romaine the painter J. M. W. Turner as his food was bold and complex but within the splash of flavours you’d find beauty almost to the extent beyond description as you’d discover from the dashes of colours on a Turner. 

On the other hand, I appreciated Caprice for the classic approach in a more controlled, structural setting, and today I got to know Chef Adrien’s own interpretation of how food could bring about such radiant happiness in a freer and more cozy environment, not to mention the complexity and harmony in each dish. 

I always believe in nurture as much as in nature.  Apart from training and striving for the better, I am sure Chefs Adrien and Romaine are born with a refined palate and the genes for gastronomy which are expressed in their food.  Glad that the two gentlemen ventured out to Racines.   

【 Of note 】 The table knives for the main course are hand made for Racines by Les Couteliers Basque in France, each having a different word etched on the blade that means something special to the chefs and in the course of making Racines a dream come true. 

【 Ossau Iraty | Hazelnut Crumble | Persimmon | Oxalis 】 

The Basque semi-hard cheese made from sheep milk was plated to go with persimmon jam, and texturally supplemented by hazelnut crumbles.  It was not an overpowering cheese but with some kick and overall quite smooth and palatable.  Such amicability surely would go well with a lot of fine foods and wines yet a reasonable amount of sweetness, as in this case, persimmon, was a definite complement to the cheese.  The dish was finally nuanced by a hint of sourness of oxalis, a touch ‘to turn gold into diamond’.

【 Banana | Tart | Almond | Baileys 】

Before serving, the banana tart was showcased on the countertop for us to take pictures, then we all got a small slice paired with Bailey ice-cream and caramel.  The combinative effect was astoundingly delicious. Contrast in temperature between the tart and the ice-cream, texture between the banana dessert and the nuts, and finally the flavours among all on the plate simply made me on cloud nine.

【 Mignardises | Coffee 】At the end sea salt and butter cookies, and almond chocolates to go with a rather light coffee.  The cookies were not of the entirely crispy type but partook of certain — a very slight degree of — chewy-gluey-ness in them.  If I still described them as crispy, I meant the taste - the cookies were crispy in the sense that they were clearly and sharply tasted.  The use of sea salt on chocolate and cookies was not new but this belonged to another level. To complement such nice texture and taste of the cookies came the crunchiness of the almond chocolate.  Hard not to say this was a perfect finale of the meal.

All in all, this was a beautiful and colourful lunch at a sunny noon in France — Le midi de la France as the region where the chefs come from is called. 

Then my friend booked for dinner in April and needless to say this said of our compliments to the chefs.  We look forward to seeing Chefs Adrien and Romaine again soon.

We were looking for a cozy fine dining French restaurant and came across a review on this new gem on upper station street. We had wanted to go on Wednesday for the birthday but it’s their weekly day off… We were sold enough by the photos in the review to go with fine dining day two on the Thursday (well still gotta do something on the big day right?).

The restaurant has a nice cozy vibe with is uncommon for French fine dining here, the place turn more bustling as the night goes by when everyone got their 4th drinks +.

The menu of the night is a six course journey, the very attentive server told us that is to reflect the southern France origins of the chefs and their travel experiences.

Of course we started with the bread. The warmed sort dough is perfect but the highlight is in the butter. We had many infused butter before from seaweed and caviar infused butter to banana honey butter but never had one that got smoke coming out of it before.

The small bites are good.

The Carabinerros is a nice start to open up the senses.

The chicken foam is our favorite dish of the night. The flavor and presentation is just full of surprises. We would go back just for this dish.

The lobster is just perfectly cooked with the chestnut and cabbage giving it a hint of fall/winter in the woods.

We always think the French knows what to do with their pigeons but having it with licorice sauce is just another level. The slight hint of licorice combine with the tender juice of the pigeon which lingers in our mouth long after we were done with the dish.

The Osseau Iraty is a very innovative presentation of the cheese platter. You have the cheese the nuts and the fruits all in one place. The choice of persimmons reminds us that it’s winter (something you need some reminders in hk as the weather could get so warm and you thought it’s sort of like summer).

The sweetness of the banana parfait is so well balanced by the whiskey jelly.

The two chefs are just amazing. Not just in the sense that they worked magic with the ingredients but how they painstakingly attend to everyone in the restaurant, they even cared to stop by to sign off before they took off at the end of the night to join their friends who paid them a surprise visit from France.

We gotta say that the food and service are indeed better than what we got the night before when we literally paid double.

Will definitely go back.

Liver parfait very pretty, taste good.Very lovely orange jam amuse bouche, one bite that full of surprises, texture flavour combinations was new, impressive and pleased. The other one with ricotta was nice but not as WOW as the first one, I could only say I like the pastry and the herbs of it. Next is two salad, the first one is squid.

It was actually a 4/5 from the beginning, then keep going down.

Sour dough too sour, like the smoked butter tho. Liver parfait very pretty, taste good.

Very lovely orange jam amuse bouche, one bite that full of surprises, texture flavour combinations was new, impressive and pleased. The other one with ricotta was nice but not as WOW as the first one, I could only say I like the pastry and the herbs of it.

Next is two salad, the first one is squid. Amazing salad dressing, might be the best salad I ever had. But the squid was too thin or small that I could barely taste it. Truffle vinaigrette artichoke, great salad as well!

Broth with seafood, small pieces seafood and broth both are nice but didn’t expect to have ordinary flavour here, was expecting much more.

Then suddenly the second main was a big piece of pork belly, and I was definitely wasn’t that impress. Texture was soft but off, some part was slightly rough with Standard sauce. Love the Choi sum and the ginger with pumpkin purée tho.

Cheese course is not bad but is not dish for everybody. Dessert is pear tart, perfect pastry but the pear lost spark in it. Lovely ice cream by the way.

Petite four had a very cute container but I can’t remember their flavour.

Lunch. Approx 17 seats in all (including bar counter seating 5). We picked the bar counter as PickyEater loved to chat with the chefs at work. The chefs in question are 2 friends who used to work at Petrus and Caprice respectively. They seem very passionate about their work, and they like to source ingredients from the local markets.Wine list was good. Went for a glass of Bordeaux red. Lunch menu was named 'antipodes’ (meaning opposites), showcasing Native Classics with local and French products

Wine list was good. Went for a glass of Bordeaux red.
Lunch menu was named 'antipodes’ (meaning opposites), showcasing Native Classics with local and French products. There were 3 options to choose from: 3 courses ($688), 4 courses ($788), and 5 courses ($888). We went for the full 5 courses. Here’s what we had.
Sour dough bread with wheat germ, sesame etc. served with chili butter. Chef explained they outsourced the bread to be made, but with his own recipe. Took many tries before perfection but it tasted very good.
