It's not as quiet as I expected because they put all the guests in the same area by closing the other half. I come here for the environment, so I am disappointed. Food wise, good without any surprises. There are other options in HK, so I prefer to try other in the future.

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.

D and I's Review:
Introduced by friends of ours who really know where to find excellent food. Not a well known restaurant nor is it at a popular spot, it has opened for 6 months by someone who is passionate about serving great food with friendly services. This off-the-beaten location with minimalism design concept makes it possible for high quality food at reasonable cost. The set lunch menu (available every day except public holiday) is priced at $98 - 198 for 3 course meal. Brunch on public holiday is available at $198. For dinner, average spending is about $500 per head, however you could always tell the owner what you like to eat and your budget to make the best out of your meal. I am happy that my money is not going to the rent and interior design, but to the dishes I am eating and the staff who prepare them.

I was most impressed by the Bouillabaisse (seafood soup) and was trying to drink the last drop of it :)

We had a tasting menu of 6 courses which includes Alaska crab leg salad, foie gras, mushroom soup, pan fried "Tung Shing Fish", 4oz Japan A4 Kobe beef and Ginger Souffle. We also had a refreshing champagne jelly with blueberries and strawberries. I should not forget to mention the bread which is also fresh and delicious. Hope you enjoy your meal!

Nice food and very nice decoration (upstairs). A bit pricey though. We had sashimi, oysters, asparagus, salmon. The fried asparagus is a good creation. I think it's better to come here for lunch.
