I agreed. I don't expect such a small crowded area at Felix. The food is bad. But dessert is quite surprising, taste good. Indeed I love dessert very much!

I dont know Verandah. I ...

Peninsula has different atmosphere to cater for different needs, Lobby Lounge, Verandah, Felix, Chesa, Gaddi's.... and if you have deep pocket and know the right person, the China Clipper.   It's just different strokes for different folks.

I won't call Felix bad or crowded.  It's a Phiippe Starck designed joint, meant to be for the chic and stylish patrons.  Personally, I like them all.

可以試下佢o既醬牛肉同酥 炸 小 黃 魚 (8條 配 家 常 餅 1份 )
不過佢真係正宗北京口味，所以同平時係香港食開既北京菜係有分別

I finally went to 老北京 and gave them a try. Yes, it was quite different from any other HK "北京" places I've been to.   It was lunch time on a Saturday (it wasn't busy), our table (out of total 4) was the only one Cantonese speaking !

It is quite good I think and I'll go back again.  Thank you 小丫環 for the recommendation.

At the same location. Once the new building is done, Hugo will move back to the premises.

有無人食過, o係us好出名, 而家開到黎hk,
打去訂位又話要2星期後先有位

呢間o野真係好一般﹐名過其實。係Lawry's食 Prime Ribs 並唔係好特別o既一件事﹐除非曾經係LA Lawry's 試過又有情意結... 個人覺得 Morton Chicago 或 Chris Ruth 都正好多。

I'd doubt 老北京 is a tourist's place.   What do 小丫環 think ?

我想問下點定義係tourist's place??

食風味菜我會揀d多當地人去食o既餐廳,
果d先係o岩味(我覺得)
前幾日我bf又帶我去一間食韓國野,
間野full晒, 都係得我地一枱hk人(可能咁o岩啦)
不過真係食翻o係韓國食o既味道

ah...前日團年先同我bf又去食老北京, 我bf屋企人真係食得好開心,
因為佢媽咪話真係好食到o係北京o既味道!!

Chris Ruth o既扒係切好一塊塊後 grill﹐即係用明火燒兩邊。 D 扒係grill之前每一塊會先用保鮮紙包住﹐係10度左右的溫度下放大約兩日﹐名為 aging﹐等D肉質變得較為鬆。Grill會先用猛火燒塊扒兩遍﹐等表明d肉有燒焦少少﹐封住裡面o既肉汁唔會外流。上碟前會加上唔同o既汁調味。

Lawry's serves o既係 prime rib﹐係成大塊肉放係一個托盤裡面﹐加入一 D 簡單o既配菜﹐如紅蘿蔔﹐洋蔥等﹐原味放入焗爐焗。焗完出爐後再逐塊切比人吃。通常塊肉兩邊會熟D﹐中間會生D。吃個時一般只會加鹽同黑椒﹐吃原味。

I think everyone should try.. cos i try the one in LA, which is very good!!

Both are not as good as I/C's Steak House.

I like their Cream Spinach.  Try and see if you like it too.

Creamed Spinach - at $75 + 10% as a side order, it's horribly expensive.  

Taste-wise, it's nothing to write home about.

Taste-wise, it's nothing to write home about.

At the Steak House, a typical meal costs you -

1 soda/water      $55
1 glass of wine  $175
1 Salad bar  $160
1 8 oz Mignon  $490
1 creamed spinach   $75
1 sauteed mushroom $75
1 coffee  $55
1 dessert $120

Total including 10% service charge, $1,325.50

For the kind of food you are getting, it sucks.  I feel bad even it's on expense account.
