Part 2/2
It wasn’t on my to-eat-list but this dinner became one of my most-enjoyed meals this HK trip.
Chef Giovanni Galeota, who helms The Dining Room, serves unassuming Italian comfort food—but with an untypical brio and panache. As a result he transforms “grandma-like” heartiness into dishes that you can’t stop eating.
I truly loved the garlic and olive oil emulsion with linguine and seaweed. And, his traditional mixed pasta “controne” white bean and crustacean reminded me of my much-loved bouillabaisse, minus the saffron.
As with any true-blue Italian experience, the meal is never “light”, and I walked out of the restaurant nursing a 5-month-pregnant tummy … but feeling absolutely happy.
