Shui Hu Ju and Riquiqui




Chilled out day with dinner and dessert bar. We had dinner at Shui Hu Ju on Peel St in Central, Hong Kong. Trudging up the steep incline you notice on your left 2 red lanterns with a old style wooden door. Creak open the door and you are greeted with decor reminiscent of old style China. For each table, there is a lamp that acts as a spot light onto the stars of the show. The whole performance was based on highlighting the ingredients without having to do anything too spectacular. This is my style, simple elegance. However the service was left wanting.

Perfectly timed end to the dinner, we strolled our way to a newly opened dessert bar Riquiqui. Indulged in a 3 course dessert which included the Aussie classic the pavlova. mmm.. The food and atmosphere was fair but would not think of visiting again.
