The Baker & The Bottleman

早幾日和太太到灣仔買餸，打算吃完午餐再去，老婆聽說這間西式麵包店幾唔錯，就決定去試試；店舖分上下兩層，樓下像快餐店形式，樓上地方比較闊落，人多還是提議到樓上用餐。🤔叫了一份三文治、半份佛卡夏麵包、黑芝麻牛角包 及 兩杯熱咖啡。先請店員幫忙翻熱Focaccia及配上少許牛油(如有油醋汁就更好)，包皮變得微脆，食落鬆軟，帶有濃郁的橄欖油和香草香味，好吃。😋忌廉香滑，帶有濃郁的芝麻香，而牛角包中加入麻薯，令外層微脆，食落香甜軟糯；可惜麻薯的濕潤也令牛角包部份變腍，如不是就更好了。咖啡及三文治就比較普，眼看還有很多高質牛角包及甜包，相必有一款合自己心意。😬#1/2 Mortadella Sandwich $39#Black Sesame Croissant $48#Americano @$33.0 x 2 $66#1/2 Focaccia $38The Baker & The Bottleman (灣仔)地址: 香港灣仔皇后大道東200號利東街地下及1樓G14 & G15號舖電話: +852 23868933…查看更多

上次去英國旅行的日子不經不覺已是六年前的事了，突然想起在約克群當地B字頭一間出名的英式餐廳。餐廳前是售賣各式各樣的麵包曲奇和糕餅，後面卻是一間英式的餐廳。格局甚似這店的，在灣仔喜帖街裡給我發現了一間 -The Baker & The Bottleman，地鋪是賣西式麵包而樓上一層是一間格調高貴，提供結合英國風味，烹製歐洲菜餚的餐廳。今天晚上，就與由英國回港探親的親人來這裡，給她比較一下英式餐廳在香港的出品。這餐廳出名的是西式麵包糕餅，看餐牌確能找到很多款加入了糕餅的烹調。見餐牌有小食 SNACKS 就點了兩款，先來的是松露布丁配黑啤及熟成巴馬臣芝士 - 這應該是店的signature 吧。松露布丁，以牛角包酥皮制作而成，保持外面微微脆口内裡是軟綿綿，而巴馬臣芝士刨得非常幼細，仿如一件藝術品出場，好吃也好打卡。黑豬肩胛肉風乾火腿就比較淡口一點，沒有千篇一律風乾火腿的咸香味道，但併上這店的麵包來吃也是另一種未嘗不可之品嚐火腿方法，不需紅酒也不需蜜瓜來陪伴。小碟 SMALL PLATES 點了番茄香辣豬肉醬與鯷魚多士。傳說中醃製過的鯷魚會有一股接近臭的味道，但卻沒有發生在這件美味上。Nduja 是一種辣味豬肉香腸，一片多士就吸收了這兩種食材帶出的油份，番茄的清新也有香濃的口感。醃漬鯖魚配大頭菜與蘋果金盞花，鲭魚醃漬過之後，完全是另一個感覺和口感，原來西式與日式醃漬的結果完全是兩回事，是另一種的味道。再將大頭菜與蘋果金盞花切成粒，微微酸酸的確開胃。煙燻鰻魚配辣根及意式豬油鬆餅，是另一款這店糕餅的配搭，鰻魚只是煙燻過仍處於白色的狀態，看餐牌還以為會以日式蒲燒鰻魚獻上，鳗魚襯鬆餅也是創新的組合，味道不錯。主菜我們二人選了炸魚漢堡配他他醬與酸瓜及紅列斯特芝士和烤豬排配焦烤蘋果泥與茄子。炸魚漢堡有吃英式炸魚薯條的快感，脆漿厚是英式炸魚的特色，上桌時仍保持香脆，原則上一杯啤酒伴吃，已是人生快樂事。烤豬排配焦烤蘋果泥與茄子，切成薄片上碟之烤過的豬扒與蘋果泥配搭在一起，蘋果香甜讓豬扒更加juicy入味。Desserts 甜品今晚點了Sticky toffee pudding 和焦糖布甸，兩款甜品的甜度各有不同，一啖微甜的和一啖稍為偏甜的互相配合，讓味蕾再度澎湃起來。這餐廳是由三星級米芝蓮廚師團隊親自主理，出品就無需置疑了，再加上餐廳開在灣仔鬧市貼近市民，推薦大家吃完他們駐名牛角飽之後更要上一層樓，試試他們的英式美食。…查看更多

以前試過 dinner 覺得幾好, 見到有 set Lunch, 於是帶同事試吓。如選擇咖啡, 跟餐只提供ice coffee, 一見到杯嘢咁淺色已經心知不妙, 飲落去一啲咖啡味都冇。 於是叫waiter換個杯, 又畀埋啲港式「西面」我睇。戴眼鏡的 waiter 服務完全冇温度, 冷冰冰, 比客人感覺就好似食緊茶餐廳咁。一D passion 都冇。前菜及主菜嚟到, portion勁細, 算啦, 百幾蚊set Lunch 係咁㗎啦, 所以冇下次。講完。…查看更多

🌟 Just had the most amazing time at The Baker & The Bottleman  , the sister restaurant of the Michelin-starred Roganic  ! We decided to treat ourselves to the incredible lunch set for just $198, and it did not disappoint.From the moment we stepped in, the cozy ambiance welcomed us. We couldn’t resist the tempting lunch set for just $198, and let me tell you, it was worth every penny!Jane was thrilled with the variety of freshly baked goodies. The highlight was definitely the black sesame mochi croissant—soft, flaky, and bursting with a unique nutty flavor that paired perfectly with the chewy mochi center. The mango coconut sago was another standout, offering a refreshing tropical twist with a creamy texture that our child loved!For our appetizers, we opted for some small plates. The smoked eel served on a fluffy pancake was a revelation. The rich, smoky flavor was beautifully complemented by a hint of horseradish, adding a delightful kick. The spicy pork toast with tomato sauce was another favorite—crispy, savory, and just spicy enough to keep things exciting!As we moved on to the big plates, we indulged in the glazed short rib of beef. It was incredibly tender and flavorful, served with creamy rosemary polenta that melted in your mouth, alongside fresh kai-lan that added a nice crunch. The roasted pork chop was equally impressive, featuring a luscious caramelized apple puree that balanced the savory meat beautifully. Each bite was a perfect harmony of flavors!The ham and comté puff pastry slice was a delightful surprise, flaky and filled with a savory blend of ham and cheese, served with a house-made honey mustard and ketchup that tied everything together.…查看更多
