Review – Guest Chef Paul Liebrandt @ Mandarin Grill + Bar, Hong Kong
120330 Corton - Menu @ Mandarin Grill + Bar
(Update 13 April 2012 – updated Wagyu | Tuna PL descriptions with feedback from Corton)
We were excited to get a table for Paul Liebrandt’s wine pairing dinner at the Mandarin Grill + Bar. It was fully booked and we were lucky that there was a last minute cancellation. The chef-owner from the two Michelin starred Corton in New York attracted our interest, but our expectations were a bit cautious as we thought it was going to be a lot of molecular gastronomy. Nevertheless, we went with open minds and open mouths.
Review – New Sushi Chef Okabe-san @ Inagiku, Hong Kong
120313 Inagiku - Chef Takashi Okabe
We headed to Inagiku at IFC, Hong Kong to try the new sushi chef, Takashi Okabe, former head sushi chef at Sushi Musashino, Hilton Tokyo, Japan. To be honest, we did not have terribly high expectations as Inagiku’s existing sushi chef was already very good.
Review – Molines Bistro, Hunter Valley, Australia
120127 Molines Bistro - Main entrance
A bit off the path of usual Hunter Valley wineries and restaurants, this small gem is next to the Tallavera Grove winery in the south, tucked up on the hillside of Mount View.
Review – Roberts Restaurant, Hunter Valley, Australia
120126 Roberts Restaurant - Main entrance
We got a bit confused about this one. We were recommended to try Roberts at Pepper Tree and upon searching for it on the web, we found Roberts Restaurant instead, but didn’t think otherwise and made dinner reservations. Then we noticed that their names were different and their websites had vastly contrasting styles. Nevertheless, we decided to go to Roberts at Pepper Tree for lunch. We passed by the Pepper Tree Wines, so we were at the right place. But upon arriving at the front door, the logo and everything was Roberts Restaurant. Upon checking their phone numbers, we confirmed them to be the same place. Anyway, since we were here, we thought that we might as well enjoy it.
Review – Muse Restaurant, Hunter Valley, Australia

120125 Muse Restaurant - Menu
This restaurant in Hunter Valley, Australia was recommended by our friends and we were excited to try it. But once we drove up Hungerford Hill Winery, where it is located, we immediately realized that we had been here before! And from our experience, we knew we would not be disappointed.
