A leafy oasis hidden in a corner of North Point, @artistrybrewingcompany serves up impressive dishes and desserts. The homey vibes made our dining experience super enjoyable (despite some bugs flying around the plants) and it almost felt like we weren’t in Hong Kong for a second.
There’s a dinner time 2 course menu available from 6-9pm. We chose the daily soup (tomato miso) and baguette over the anchovy quinoa salad. Although we didn’t get any beverages, the drinks menu offers a wide range of choices from coffee to alcohol.
[Duck Confit Couscous] Since visiting last year, the menu hasn’t changed much except for this signature dish increasing by $30. However, it’s still super worth it as the silky duck meat came right off the bones and melted immediately in our mouths. We especially loved the innovative pairing of crispy almonds, dry fruits and a refreshing yogurt sauce.
[Scallop Brown Rice] This dish felt more like Chinese fried rice instead of something you would expect to find in a western cafe. Despite a weird first impression, it actually tasted better than we had thought. Topped with seared scallops, the brown rice was mixed with plenty of mushrooms, iceberg lettuce and pomegranate - super healthy!
[Linguine Ai Frutti Di Mare] The seafood pasta was not as outstanding compared to the other dishes, but it was still quite delicious. Quite worth the price too, as there’s a lot of mussels (not a huge fan though), crab meat and shrimps that were full of flavor from the lemon zest and garlic shallots.
[Tiramisu] After finishing up our mains, we asked for the cakes menu (p.s. saw that they can do birthday plating). It turned out that the tiramisu was actually a crepe cake - look at how thin each layer is! Super yummy with creamy espresso fillings and a top layer of sprinkled cocoa powder.

Read moreIt took me a bit of time to find Artistry Brewing Company, as it is located on the backstreet of Kam Ping Street. Nevertheless, it’s worth the finding.
Artistry Brewing Company has a superb retro interior design with beautiful and adorable wooden furniture, as well as lots of pretty plants. A very cozy and relaxing environment indeed!
The lighting decoration is also superb!!!
This Ethiopian Long Black Coffee came with my lunch set (served till 5pm), and it’s a legit black coffee surprisingly! Very aromatic and enjoyable with a thin body.
The Moules Frites in White Wine Sauce I ordered was absolutely fantastic! There were quite a lot of mussels, which were meaty and fresh. The white wine sauce was quite thin, which made a very delicious broth with halved cherry tomatoes and shallots. I actually drank quite a bit of the “broth”! The freshly fried fries and sliced baguette were also very delicious too! The whole set actually reminded me of Belgium!
Definitely visiting again to try their cakes...
Read moreMy friend and I went to this new establishment in the lovely corner of Kam Ping Street to celebrate her birthday.
I have seen quite a number of reviews on social media before. The restaurant did has a chill ambience with cool decor but the food was to my utter disappointment.
I ordered a seafood linguine on the set dinner menu. It came soaking in a watery broth which tastes very bland. The mussels and shrimps tastes like they are just boiled in the water without any seasoning or cooking that would add flavors to them. That are fine. The linguine was a nightmare. It was soggy and mushy. It plastered onto my tongue upon chewing which is absolutely disgusting. Literally the worst pasta I have ever tasted in my entire life....
My friend’s dish tastes bland and poorly cooked as well. Definitely no next time as there are many nice cafes and diners on the same street with a much affordable...
