標兄, 又再共鳴

Another place I regret that it is gone is Hyatt Hotel Hugo's

Hugo 最令阿標開心難忘的是頭盤車，為食仔如我可以快意指點江山，東揀西擇，左擁右抱，一次過把眼前美食收攬入懷，啊啊！...那管接下來還要捧�蚢”{子捱過工作間的漫漫悶長下午，盡興食飽先至算....嘻，頭盤車，諗起都開心！吃至主菜燒牛肉連骨時，已是阿標勤勞的胃另一邊廂的責任了！唉，美食何多胃何小！！！   可愛老頑童兄再有同感乎？

但係我又食過一間o係cwb怡和街某大廈o既<老北京>真係唔錯咖,
幾有風味, 因為我bf佢媽咪係天津人, 她成日都話hk好難食翻一間有傳統北京風味o既餐館, 但我bf帶佢屋企人去食過之後, 好like, 話有以前個老工人o既水準喎, 唔知真唔真, 不過老北京都真係幾好食, 同有驚喜!!

紫玉蘭好多年前都同boss去食過, 但係都唔記得過次咩, 因為都無咩特別~

I would love to hear your comments after your visit to Lawry's.  

For Prime Ribs, try ordering medium-rare. The risks of contacting germs are quite low. Unlike hamburger steaks where the cho ...

....時不我予，這正如天要下雨娘要嫁人般的世間無奈事！阿標亦如頑童兄般每念於斯感懷不已！

不過，話說回來，興起時能隨時餐啖五安，已不能太多抱怨！起碼有心有閒，有銀有力，已是人上人也！�G且君子饞人，食無求飽，祇求味求精，境界更高也！頑童兄以為然否！

講開 ording the biggest cut of steak available in a restaurant，多年前在 SF Steak Hse 好似有限時內盡啖 48 oz 牛肉可免費並得證書之舉，頑兄曾參予其盛否？

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

Agreed -- Peter Luger is legendary, but you have to go to New York Brooklyn!!!  I have tried it once and it is excellent.

Other choices in NYC is Del Frisco's in midtown and Sparks (famous for dry-aged steak).

Made reservation for Lawry's once. End up didn't dine in. So stupid for them to have two seatings, once at 7 pm and the other at 9 pm. The first seating is too early for me as I work in Kowloon side. So chose the second seating. Arrived on time, but saw that there were over 5/6 table waiting as the people from the first seating haven't finished.

WHAT A STUPID IDEA!!!!!!!

As some people who reserved for the first seating didn't arrive on time, so they'd have started late; also that the time slot for enjoy a meal with starter, main course, dessert and wine could always take longer than two hours! I saw that there were 2 couples with black face already at the waiting lounge, didn't know how long they've been waiting. So I figured that I should rather leave than waiting until probably 10 pm, while their last order were at 11 pm.

So if you really want to go, make sure you reserve for the first seating!!!

Sorry to hear your terrible experience there. It is so disappointed for you to go there but they offered no seat for dinner.

I had similar experience before at Spoon & Felix. But they do have a small area for drinking wine. So by the time you wait, you could seat there drink wine and chat w/ your friends before they offer you a table. I think this is a great idea as you not like wasting time waiting.

I consider "Prime Rib" and "Steak" are different, different in taste, texture... cannot and should not compare them side by side...

FELIX is so disappointing (but Verandah and Gaddi are good). Food quality is really bad and poor value too. Spoon is much better.

They is also a waiting lounge at Lawry's, that's where I saw two couples waiting with black face. Especially for the second seating, people do want to eat at 9!

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 heard of Gaddi but cant remember where it is. Can tell more?

I see. Is the place for waiting comfortable? If yes, I dont mind waiting 30mins for a table. I can have a drink and wait...
