Red Star Restaurant & Pub — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

Tried their 120 minutes free-flowing happy hour with snacks with a couple of friends on a Friday night. We ordered wine, and one of us was driving, so he only ordered orange juice. We had to urge the waitress/hostess several times before getting our first drink, which arrived after 15 minutes. The orange juice never arrived. After further asking 5 minutes later, my friend was given a lecture and told that the kitchen was busy and there was no need to remind her.

The fusilli con buco carbonara is also quite nice (but they are using the traditional method without cream, so the heat control is important: the egg got a bit scrambled).

Seasoning across the board is a bit lacking - salt is important! The steak could be rubbed with salt and pepper, the mashed potatoes taste of water, and the pasta was probably cooked in unsalted water.

Thankfully the steak sauce is unctuous, thick and flavorful, and the pasta was for kids, so blander is better. Your...
