L'AMOUR — Restaurant in Tai Po District

High Quality for most of the dishes in LAmour lovely puddings esp haaa love yaya

Lamour isn’t too big, guess ten tables in total and the seating is so comsy, only bad thing is the transparent door which the sunlight go directly into the restaurant, pretty annoying for the eyes if you come to have lunch here sadly, my bad eyes sad, overall the restaurant is in good standard, good foods and good service, such a good choice if you wanna have a decent lunch, pretty valuable if you come by lunchtime haa

the oyster is soso fresh very unexpected, and very sweet too haa, and even better than those i ate in longham hotel lollll

Black sugar bread is sweet haa

the lobster soup tasting sweet with strong lobster flavor, i’m loving it haaa, even the texture isn’t so thick instead so smooth, and some scallop pieces insides haa

Caramelized Foie Gras Tart not having good outlook at all lolll, the taste is good haa just like eating egg tart haa, foie gras won’t be strong or weird

Tasmanian Sea Urchin Toast having a whole piece haa and urchin tasting not too strong but it’s okay ya

Thunnus thynnus Tartare tasting good with a bit of pepper so it’s a bit exciting when you taste it haa and soso good when you mix the tartare with caviar the taste is so much better, like this one so much with complex taste

Pan Seared Grouper is okay ah, with very crispy layer and smashed potatoes having full of butter flavor and i guess butter is overwhelming haa, but the grouper tastes so light sadly seem not too fresh

Slow cooked Iberico Pork Loin Rack with Caramel Apple Sauce, i like the smashed pumpkins paste soso sweet haa, the pork having really tender texture, haa, on top having a piece of iberico ham which is so tasty with a bit of saltiness

Sea Urchin Ice Cream having very strong tofu flavor, you can taste a bit urchin flavor when you get some urchins haa

Mongo pudding is sososo yummy with very silky texture haa, indeed so in love with this one, honestly even better than ice cream, 100% and plus, pudding simply melt insides your mouth soso good lovely lovely haaa

every dish is in good standard, and i esp like the fresh oyster and mango pudding, my number one favorite haaa, yaya, first time trying here having very good impression and pretty out of my expectation haa

taste 4.5 envir 3.5 service...

Pretentious overpriced food. Numerous items on their menu were blacked out; why don’t they just create a new menu?

We were seated at a table right next to the door, despite booking in advance on openrice/ Google. They decided to cancel my booking because they “couldn’t get hold of me when they called”. Hence we were given such an awkward table.

The restaurant was very cramped as they filled every inch of space with tables to maximise occupancy (and profits) at the expense of the comfort of diners.

They charge fine dining prices but their service was unfriendly and sub par. As the menu had very limited options for green vegetables (they only had ONE salad), I asked the waitress to enquire whether the chef could steam a dish of broccoli as a side dish. The waitress didn’t even try to ask but immediately said, “we don’t do these kinda things here” (“我哋唔做呢啲㗎”).

When asked further whether they had lettuce in their ONLY salad, the same waitress reluctantly answered my question saying they only use rocket leaves. She clearly had an attitude and seemed so surprised that a diner would ask for details about the ingredients of a dish in the restaurant she works in!

We ordered 4 dishes. The lamb cutlets were tough to eat despite asking for medium. The fish was way below average as it tasted like it was frozen fish, and not fresh fish.

The good dishes were pork loin and truffle fries. However, neither were worth the price tag they charge. Pork loin was approx HK$260 and truffle fries HK$130.

The salads that came with each main were inedible - no dressing and filled with random petals and a sprig of parsley (why?). There were no actual salad leaves. Also, all salads were identical regardless of what meat you have. How is this fine dining?

Our total came to approx HK$1100 for 3 people.

Oh and their oversized hard-to-read menu looked ridiculous on their tiny...

Caramel foie gras tart HK$88 Really love the warmth of the tart when served 🔥 since most of the tart in other restaurants are small, yet cold ❄️ The second thing I love is the rich buttery taste which melts in your mouth with the caramel foie gras filling 🧈💖

Sea Urchin Caviar Toast HK$238/3 pics Crunchy toast is non-negotiable 😌🫶🏽The urchin is rich and a great match with the caviar. 🤩The golden flakes are the icing on the cake 🧁

Mozzarella parma ham rocket roll HK$198 Quite surprised at the portion of the salad dish 😆 definitely enough for more than 2 people 👍🏼 the parma ham has a mild saltiness and are easy to chew 😋

Black truffle scallop pearl barley HK$288 First time trying pearl barley and the texture is interesting 😚 like the sauce and the 🍄‍🟫 💕 black truffle on scallop is 🤌🏽

Sous vide Iberico pork loin rack with caramel apple HK$388 The outer layer is grilled with a bamboo charcoal incense while inner pork loin is pinkish 😍 very soft as it has been slow cooked. 🤤 The caramel apple sauce is light🍎

Pan fried barramundi fillet with cauliflower HK$288 Crispy fish skin 🍥 The plating of the dishes are very pretty 😍 the red carrots, purple tomato and cauliflower puree with asparagus are like a painting 🖼️
