Both Meat Main Courses were "exorbitantly impressive". If I came back in quick succession again & was forced to pick, it'll be the Lamb 1st 🐑 However if this was my last supper I will pick the Miyazaki Wagyu Sirloin. I actually have no dilemma picking one for each occasion, may be it's because they were so distinctive anyway, let me explain:
•
✴️Agneau de l'Aveyron 🇫🇷 Young Lamb rack of Lacaune breed, is served with Alpine Garlic 高山ニンニク, Cardamom, Chanterelle mushrooms, Puree, Burnt Leek Powder & Australian Winter Truffle. The mild yet milky tasting, tender Lamb is ethereal & all in perfect equilibrium, with a tinge of nutty gingery caramel zing. In HK, I have only had such mesmerizing Lamb at Bombana's 8 1/2 Otto e Mezzo before, also a while ago when Harlan still cooked at GOLD. And even then, this pure taste was highly expressive of its terroir. I have had enough Aveyron or Pyrenees Lamb before to gauge that this was one of those extraordinaries.. 🤔

✴️𝘔𝘪𝘺𝘢𝘻𝘢𝘬𝘪 𝘞𝘢𝘨𝘺𝘶 𝘚𝘪𝘳𝘭𝘰𝘪𝘯 🇯🇵 with Mussel & Red Paprika, Okahijiki 陸鹿尾菜, Beef Jus & a shave of Truffle. Was so good it can make one cry. When every restaurant is selling a Wagyu Beef nowadays, we tend to forget that the best pieces carry such a sophisticated Wagyu monounsaturated fat profile, Meatiness, the flavors still evolving & further developing whilst lingering on your palate like a top vintage Grand Cru Burgundy that doesn't want to dissipate. The long finish is not even believable anymore these days as we have become complacent with too many Wagyu offerings which are already good but this was just something else! The last time I had this quality and wasn't willing to swallow each bite, was at Arbor twice, and also at Whisk in Mira, or say at Nikushou when I was served a great muscle.

As to why I would pick the Lamb over Wagyu for my next visit? It is because somehow the Lamb recipe & taste here was totally unique, and in my memory bank never replicated before... The Wagyu was also a top 2% performance, but on a lucky day you might still experience one in HK or Japan. There is almost nothing between them though..! 💭💭❤️
