Jimmy's Kitchen is my recent new fond located on Wyndham street that offers British Cuisine. Surprised as I was, I never knew about this place, I first thought it was a Chinese Restaurant just by its name. Yet they do offer Chinese dishes, especially this Chicken a La King is the best Chicken a La King in town!
The restaurant dining hall has a classy ambiance with burgundy floral patterned carpet, rustic stone wall, white tables with suede sofas and red lamps in a dim yellow lighting. The bar looks very fancy, with beige brown floor tiles accented with bright red button tufted leather sofas. I can totally imagine people sipping scotch and smoking cigar there. Service is topnotch here, they have a number tag for you if you check in your umbrella, so no asshole can steal your umbrella secretly (To whoever stole mine at Cha Cha Wan!!!!!) Menu was well explained and several recommendations were given. I think I like it here already!
A beautiful salad to whet the appetite. This salad combination can never go wrong but Jimmy's Kitchen made it better by using fresh salad leaves and celeriac. The celeriac and sweet apple were chopped the same size, made us a bit confused but fun when we were enjoying the salad. The mayonnaise sauce was delicious and was a great match to the salad. My guess is the mayonnaise is made in house, as the taste was rather special.
A great flavoured dish with tender oxtails and rich savoury red wine sauce. The oxtails were especially nice with some soft joints adding extra texture to the dish. The red carrots however held no taste of the sauce, it seemed they braised the carrot separately. The tagliatelle was cooked al dente, but there was not enough sauce to compliment it. What a pity!
I would have totally missed the Chicken a La King if the waiter did not specifically point out how amazing their Chicken a La King is. I ordered it out of curiosity and to my surprise, it did live up to its fame.
The Chicken a La King at Jimmy's Kitchen is probably the best that I have ever had in my life! Jimmy's Kitchen's amazing cream sauce won over the local Cha Chaan Tang shit. The sauce was extremely savoury and creamy! The chicken can be more tender but was still good. I could not recall if the butter rice did taste different since I was too busy indulging in the cream sauce LOL. So if you have not tried Jimmy's Kitchen's Chicken a La King, you have NOT yet tried Chicken a La King!
To be completely honest, Jimmy's Kitchen is rather pricey given that I spent almost HKD300 for lunch. It would not be a restaurant that I (currently) afford to go everyday for lunch, but I really like this restaurant from furnishing to service and food! I can't wait to come here again, may be the Sunday Roast next? :)
