My bestie and I checked out Te Bo, a hidden gem in the Quarry Bay office building area and a new addition to the Michelin’s guide this year🌟
The restaurant features a semi-open kitchen and a bar theme 🥂. As soon as you sit down, you can watch the chefs busy at work— the ambiance is absolutely perfect! The location is fantastic too, offering a clear view of the office building’s mall lobby. When sunlight filters in, it’s ideal for taking stunning photos 📸
The lunch menu isn’t offering a wide range of options, but every dish hits the spot perfectly!
• First up: square-shaped toast bread. Crispy on the outside and dense on the inside, they’re adorable and just right for whetting your appetite.
🌟 Starters
• The starters were a total surprise! I opted for the squid dish🦑, which came in thin, pasta-like strips. Its texture was like tender but gummy noodles, and it paired amazingly with the seaweed sauce.
• My bestie’s salad 🥗 was also extraordinary~ The truffle dressing and avocado paste were perfectly balanced, bringing out the fresh sweetness of the fruits and vegetables.
🌟 Main Courses
• The mains were simply divine! My Spanish Iberico pork presa🐷 looked like a thick-cut steak, but it was incredibly tender and juicy with every bite. Drizzled with pork jus and paired with apple and celeriac~
•My bestie’s Italian sweet onion and spinach ravioli 🥟 was light and non-greasy, stuffed with a generous filling, and the sauce had rich, layered flavours.
🌟 Dessert
• We chose chocolate mousse 🍫 for dessert—it was good but not particularly memorable. • However, the chocolate orange cake balls 🍊 at the end were a lovely surprise; the orange aroma was just right for cutting through the richness.
The portion sizes are perfect for ladies, with new delights in every bite, and the value for money is excellent! The atmosphere is stylish and comfortable. Next time, we definitely have to try their...

Today I visit an elegant restaurant with chef bar table. The interior is very nice ,rather spacious and modern.
Beef tartare The beef tartare is so good! The beef texture is perfect, not too soft like mashed but retain beef texture , and the seasoning is great, with aid of citrus and special Japanese plum flavour , adding a bit freshness to the dish, it is a light but tasty appetiser. It is a modern twist of beef tartare.
Leek and potato soup This potato soup is served cold, perfect for summer! The soup is very smooth and creamy, the leek goes perfectly with potato and the bacon adds a kick to it. That’s so delicious!
Three yellow chicken roulade This yellow chicken is cooked perfectly, one bite size, easy to eat, paired with red peppers and special sauce, the meat is so tender with a roast flavor, lovely.
Coconut, stracciatella ice cream , pandan, tapioca This coconut dessert is lovely, it is so light and creamy, with some crispy elements elevating the texture, love it.
Overall I got a great dining...
Read moreOverall my dinning experience was good, beautiful environment with great atmosphere, attentive service and beautiful food.
Tried the tasting menu which features their signature dishes. The appetizer trio were delightful, delicate flavour complimented with different layers of texture. I particularly enjoyed the beef cheek ravioli and the crispy lobster, both delicious. I gave a 4-stars because i was slightly disappointed with the three yellow chicken which was my most anticipated dish. I understood the concept of reimagined yellow chicken and i think it was a good attempt but the taste was just not there for me and i felt a bit uncertain with what i was eating.
Wrapping up the meal was a refreshing dessert along with a petite four. The sweets were wonderful and a nice end note to the meal.
I think it’s worth a try, definitely a nice experience. Will i come back again? Maybe, depending...
