when i first started writing this site, i was thinking of sharing my precious moments with my readers.
“good wine, good food and good friends”, should be an universal formular for our “precious moment”.
don’t envy me, what i am going to introduce to you, is the only restaurant of a world-wide culture and trendy label, the Agnès b. le pain grillé.
this is the first and only Agnès b. restaurant all over the world (except that there is another Agnès b. cafe opened in HK as well, shortly after this le pain grillé), serving southern french cuisine. it is located right underneath the Agnès b. Travel Concept Shop. it seems that the restaurant itself is making a declaration on the fushion of fashion, travel and cuisine, i.e. culture and life.
during its first opening in Sept 2006, the waiting list was up to 3 months. this restaurant was really the talk of the town at that moment.
the food and wine served by this shop are pure southern france traditions, even every decoration inside the restaurant is from the southern france. sitting inside the cozy restaurant, tasting a glass of fine french wine (in a very competitive price) and ordering their tradition french dishes, one would hardly believe they are now in hong kong.
among their dishes, i love their freshly baked bread, foiue gras, la omlette, mussels (exactly the same as those i tasted in paris and southern france), crepe & souffle in particular.
if you ask me for a recommendation of french cuisine in hong kong, this Agnès b. le pain grillé should be on the top 3 of my list.
