Gaucho - Flame Grilled Argentinian Steakhouse

Price: $$$$

Cravingness: ★★★★★

Flame on! Gaucho, the award wining Argentinian steakhouse originated in UK has recently made its stop in the steakhouse battle scene in Hong Kong. Located at the LHT Tower, the very heart of Central, Gaucho Hong Kong is the first flapship restaurant in Asia (Wo-hoo!). I am very excited about its opening, but not as excited as Henry, as Gaucho is his favourite steakhouse on Earth and he can talk hours about it. We thought reservation would be difficult, but to our surprise, we got our reservation pretty easily.

La Vache - Mooooooooo!

Price: $$$

Cravingness: ★★★★☆

Stage back a year ago to my gastronomy trip in Paris, I missed dinning at Le Relais de l'Entrecôte, a famous steak frites in Paris as my stomach got real upset after all the delicious food that I had. When I first heard about La Vache, the steak frites in soho, I got really excited. We failed a few times making a phone reservation, so we decided to just walk in tonight. And to our surprise, they have a (bar) table for us!

The Steak House Wine Bar + Grill - The Steak King?

Price: $$$$$

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆

Whenever we talk about the best steakhouse in Hong Kong, the Steakhouse Wine Bar + Grill at Intercontinental is always mentioned. Being crowned the Steak King, I finally got the chance to try the steak house since HSBC Premier Visa Card is offering a 20% discount on every al la carte items which is an amazing deal that cannot be missed!



The steakhouse has a similar settings and ambience to any other good steakhouse in Hong Kong - it is spacious, grand but causal at the same time. The very attribute that makes the Steak House stands out is their charcoal grill, which is the one and only charcoal grill in Hong Kong. Despite that they are also known for the topnotch services and the eclectic selection of knives, steaks and condiments! I will explain more in below.

Strip House by Harlan Goldstein - Flirty Food

Price: $$$$

Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

Strip House by Harlan Goldstein is an American steakhouse located amidst the lustrous Lang Kwai Fang. With a sexual name, Strip House creates a flirty ambiance for its diners.

Starting with a red luminous light with "Strip House by Harlan Goldstein" on a red wall, a red and black table setting with sex symbol Marilyn Monroe cushion, black and white posters with nudity, bold sexy red lips wallpaper at the washroom etc. Even the menu and drink list play with flirty words like Sickest Crabcakes in the World or "Kick Ass" Mac and cheese or Panty Dropper. Not to mention they play Frank Sinatra, my favourite jazz singer on earth. It already sounds fun dining at Strip House.

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.

Wooloomooloo | A Panoramic View of The Beautiful Vic Harbour

Dinning in Wooloomooloo was an impulsive decision, we did not make any reservations nor research on the menu ahead of visit. There was vacant tables on a normal weekday, but the nice spots - window seats and the roof top was fully reserved. Since the purpose wasn't for a romantic dine out as I was with my family, I decided to focus more on other aspects e.g. services and their dishes.

Craft Steak | Juicy Nice Steaks

Super Monday again! I love Mondays as I could always enjoy more food with less price. Today, we brought my parents along with me to Craft Steak in Soho, which I reckoned is a very decent steakhouse.

There are two dinning sessions in Craft Steak, one from 6.30 - 8.15, another from 8.45 - closed. So we made our reservation at 8.45. When we arrived to the restaurant, the waiter said they do not have any reservation record from us. At that moment, all empty table had already had a reserve card on them, we were afraid that we might have to disappoint my parents especially we had the dinner that late at night. Fortunately, after waited for about ten minutes, the waiter somehow got us a table to settle in.
