They redo the menu this year, the ham that I love is now mixed with parma ham, which I find it soso, the rivotril is okay, but the other three pasta really stand out, the carbonara they make it in front of you in a cheese wheel(new dish), they really knocked it out of the park, the truffle pasta is as good as usual, the lobster pasta has a great sauce and fresh tasty lobster on top.

I have been to places where great attention was given to food and presentation costing far less. The service was also below par: we did not feel we were welcomed or taken care of. In comparison, the staff at the Horizon Club on 21/F were immaculate; they were polite and...
Read moreThe nicest hospitality I had in Hong Kong so far. Very careful service, and the chef Andrea was amazing. An hidden gem of Tst 👍. Very attractive menu. The seafood was very tender, fresh and perfect balanced taste. But was totally impressed me more than anything is was the foie grass terrine, It was so elegant and superbly yummy. We had also the opportunity to try a special digestive liquor with can only be found in Italy or there. Food quality, the combination of flavours, the menu choices and the atmosphere created from the floor staff with the chef, it was all...
