Beef & Liberty - Retry & Congrats for 2015 Bib Gourmand

Price: $$
Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

First of all, a big congratulation to Beef and Liberty for being listed as the one and only Bib Gourmand burger restaurant on Michelin Guide Hong Kong and Macau 2015. If you read my previous preview on Beef & Liberty, I was upset about my burger being dry. I came back to Beef & Liberty under invitation as I was told Chef Neil Tomes improves his burgers' recipe from time to time. I wonder if my first was a bad time for Beef & Liberty, so I have to come back again.

Beef & Liberty - Dry Burgers

Price: $$
Cravingness: ★★☆☆☆

Among numerous burger restaurants in Hong Kong, Beef & Liberty is a popular choice known for great burgers. I had been longing to try the burgers here and held great expectation. I came over on a Sunday for brunch but the restaurant was packed. I waited around half an hour for a table for four. Not too bad giving its popularity.

Ruth's Chris Steak House - Best Steak in Hong Kong

Price: $$$$
Cravingness: ★★★★★


I had always considered Ruth's Chris as a fancy steakhouse given its price, but found they aren't going the fancy style but a happy cosy steakhouse style. In several localised steakhouse in HK, you will find 'black pepper sauce' along with the steaks, but in Ruth's Chris Steakhouse the best sauce to go with your steak is Butter, Salt and Pepper. A topnotch steak does not require any sauce as itself can already provide the best taste and mouthfeel that one could get.
