My favorite happy hour place in Wan Chai, the night can start with your favorite beer – Stella? Hoegaarden? Let’s go for something less ordinary? You will be amazed by the BEER Bible they have at Frites which offers all premium and local brands from Belgium. I often come for their mussels and happy hour and when I’m in the mood – I would just randomly choose a brand from their “Bible” as a part of food/alcohol exploration! Beer time! Stella was good as usual, one of everyone’s all-time favorite, this came with the restaurant week dinner menu set which was HKD 348 per person.
講到灣仔一班人想去Happy hour的話，最好就訂定位皆因Frites Belgium on Tap真係幾旺。諗返起第一次黎哩到食佢地既青口就場立即愛上，無論味道，價錢，環境都好適合一大打工仔黎Happy hour，再加上他們獨有的「啤酒聖經」，搜羅比利時大大小小的啤酒，唔使成日飲Hoegaarden, Stella, Corona 之餘仲試到好多唔同既口味如生果味，都好適合女仔試。
Then we went for the unordinary LUCIFER BEER from Belgium – outstanding fruit blend and aroma with a mild sweetness & bitterness of malt syrup taste to it. It sounds devilish yet it would be great drink if you are looking for something deeper than Stella.
「魔鬼啤酒」聽落去好得意，點徂支試。出奇地一點都唔邪惡，反然啤酒帶有淡淡的生果味，但又比一般的啤酒重麥味且小甜。酒精度亦比平時的高3%，所以就能被稱之為「魔鬼啤酒」吧。
STEAK TARTARE - With all the trimmings and grilled baguetteThe egg yolk served with the steak tartare made the whole sauce really creamy and flavorful, diced herbs, onions were added so the flavor was rich. I had to eat it with the nicely grilled baguette to tone down the overall saltiness but overall not bad!
這個Steak tartare調味醃得不錯，有食得出的香草香氣和洋蔥粒。加上一隻生雞蛋黃，令口感特別滑與「杰」身。雖然這碟頭盤吃上口濃味了點，但送上烤過的百吉包多士與隨碟的生菜就剛剛好了。
FRITES HOUSE MUSSELS - Diced tomato, garlic, onion, light cream and fresh chivesFrites mussels are my ALL-TIME FAVOURITE! The mussels are often fresh and medium-big in size combined with the creamy & milky sauce of tomato, onion, cream and chives, my case is closed. I have yet to try the rest of the flavors like pesto and laksa but I know I will always just come back for their mussels which you can enjoy with their flagship frites! Frites are medium-size cut, freshly fried and the potatoes were cooked till it’s fluffy and soft. As the ultimate potato fan, I would rate their frites here 9 out of 10! Just one point for its portions could be bigger!
主角出場了！就是一大煲的肥美青口！本身有得多口味如Pesto，Laksa等供應，但又覺得classic的house mussels是最好的，所以每次都點這口味。青口的品種是屬於較短手，肥肥的，較厚肉，令平時不太吃青口的我不停地吃。煮青口的汁吃得出有放香草，蕃茄粒，洋蔥粒，而且還有淡淡的奶香。配上我最喜愛的薯條！Frites的frites果然不是浪得虛名，炸得脆脆的，薯條有薯味且吃上來綿綿的，水準相當不錯！每次來都不會失望的。
750 GRAM ROASTED PORK KNUCKLE - Served with caramelised roasted vegetablesPork Knuckle smelled so good to prove that it is nicely roasted with all the big chunks of onions, potatoes, carrots and zucchini. The meat was tender, could be juicier and the roasted skin could be crispier, it was probably roasted with a relatively lower temperature to ensure the pork was cooked thoroughly yet didn’t add the crispier crunch to it.
大大份燒豬膝切件上碟，伴著烤得香香的薯仔粒，紅蘿蔔，紅洋蔥與翠玉瓜。略嫌外皮烤得不夠脆，肉一點乾身，但整體還是好味的。
It is debatable as to whether this is really authentic Belgium food but at least the food quality was decent and reasonably priced. The Wan Chai branch has an outdoor area which will be great for autumn weather as you can just enjoy your mussels, frites, with a bottle of premium brewed Belgium beer.
係唔係正宗比利時啤酒就唔知，不夠哩到既比利時啤酒就真係無得輸，價值大眾化又多選擇。你係灣仔返工既話，又點可以唔過去Frites Belgium on Tap的戶外區到吹下海風，嘆返杯啤酒呢？
