A Lux: Enjoy a high-quality Italian and French restaurant amidst Central's historic landmarks

🥂Caca was so excited to be with her husband at A LUX, the incredibly popular restaurant in Central, located next to the century-old gas lamps on Duddell Street. This highly anticipated restaurant is a must-try! The vintage atmosphere and elegant tableware make each dish exquisite and pleasing to the eye. The staff provides detailed instructions on the ingredients and cooking methods for each dish, from appetizer to dessert. It feels like a #ceremonial place to celebrate dinner! Be sure to check in at the door! 💡 🌹Caca's picks: 5-Course Dinner Set Menu 🥂Wine: Musti Nobilis Prosecco 'Extra Dry' (2 Glasses) $336 It has a refreshing and sweet taste, perfect as an aperitif! Appetizers: ▪️Amuse Bouche: Crab Meat and Avocado Paste with Squid Ink Biscuits. Topped with Alaskan crab meat, the biscuits are made with squid ink and topped with avocado sauce. Enjoy them all in one bite for a refreshing feeling. Main Course Appetizers: ▪️Red Prawn Carpaccio, Caviar, Walnut, and Herb Vinaigrette (Additional $68) The garnishes complement the red prawns perfectly, offering a slightly sweet and sour flavor that whet their appetite. ▪️Beef Carpaccio, Arugula, Parmesan, and Truffle Dressing The tender and fragrant American beef tenderloin is served with diced duck liver, crispy Parmesan cheese chips, and a salad. The dish is lightly salty but not greasy. 🫕Daily Soup ▪️Red Prawn Carpaccio with Cognac Foam and Lobster Biscuit with Ravioli The rich lobster broth is paired with cognac foam, and the ravioli are filled with lobster meat, creating a refreshing and delicious dish. ▪️Seafood bouillabaisse with garlic toast (additional $58) The seafood bouillabaisse features scallops, mussels, clams, and cuttlefish in a fish and tomato base, creating a savory and rich flavor. The cuttlefish garlic toast is delicious when dipped in the broth. 🍴Main Course 1: ▪️Saffron risotto, zampone, and fresh chorizo The succulent Italian pork trotter is succulent and delicious when paired with risotto rice. ▪️Abalone spinosini, garlic, and chili (additional $58) Sweet abalone slices paired with smooth pasta are just the right amount of flavor. 🍴Main Course 2: ▪️USDA beef tenderloin, potato terrine, and peppercorn sauce The US beef tenderloin is served with phyllo potatoes, cooked to medium-rare. The gravy is perfectly encapsulated within the steak, resulting in a tender and rich flavor. ▪️Lobster thermidor with green salad (Additional $68) The lobster is pre-cut and sliced, so ladies can enjoy it elegantly! ❤️This ceremonial dessert makes us feel like we're enjoying a French afternoon tea all over again—a burst of bliss! 🧀Dessert ▫️Cheese Platter Comprising three cheeses: Comté cheese, Pecorino cheese, and Blue cheese, paired with candied fruit, this rich and flavorful platter is a must-try for cheese lovers! ▫️Daily Dessert: Tiramisu Smooth tiramisu with sweet chestnuts 🌰 ▫️Petit Four Four adorable and exquisite desserts: macarons, caramel chocolate, and shell cake—so beautiful! ☕️Tea: Rose Pu'er tea, rich and refreshing.
