Lunch at Howard's Gourmet Restaurant

on 15 Apr 2019

by Gerhard Huber

Posh restaurant in Central. The Chef is apparently more a chemist, than cook. But he has a treasure of old recipes which he recreates using his knowledge of chemistry.
The sea cucumber has a unique texture being crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. The Hot and Sour soup was the high light of the dish being entirely different in colour and taste from the usual MSG loaded version.
This all gets served with deliberate speed so you can plan something after about 90 minutes.
