Oyster + Western in Central
Address:G/F, 39 Aberdeen Street, Central
+852 2815-2208
Price: HKD400+ per person

As the name suggest, this is a place for oysters, and they have very nice oysters from all over the world! At this moment (Feb), it is the season for oysters from France, so we had Belon 000 ($68), something from Ireland, Special de France etc.

Apart from oysters, we had 2 soups and seafood angel hair that were also tasty. Situated at Aberdeen Street, can be a little bit hard to find if you don't know the area. Ask for direction.

Being at IFC, this restaurant is a bit on the pricey side as expected, the food and tea/coffee are pretty good. Somehow being on the 2nd floor instead of the podium floor (where most traffic concentrate) means that it is seldom fully occupied and thus it is a nice choice if you want to be sure to get a table. Sit by the edge with a view of the podium floor, it is quite fun watching people busily walking in and out of IFC.

Review:
We had oysters (gigas + island pacific). I prefer island pacific for the creamy texture. Potato Leek soup, Escargot, Lobster pasta. White wine: L&E Blanc Bordeaux. Classic atmosphere, something like an old french restaurant with high ceiling. It's quiet before 8:30pm on Saturday. We enjoyed this meal very much. As the name suggests, it has good seafood selection on the menu. Wine list is so so.

Review:
A low-cost alternative to the usually expensive restaurants in Soho. The entrance is a bit hard to find if you don't know your way.
