  • Winter Solstice 2009

     

    Winter Solstice occurs exactly when the earth’s axial tilt is farthest away from the sun at its maximum of 23° 26′. which also means the mid of winter….In the Chinese culture family will hold a big dinner gathering.

    This year   Winter Solstice Dinner as well as to celebrate my firiend moving to a new job, I choose to have dinner at the Lawry’s Steak House in Hong Kong which was opened in 2006



    last preparation of the famous Spinning salad at the table side, actually the sever put the mixed green into the mixing bowl and spin the bowl over the ice and add the salad dressing into the the spinning bowl, then plate the salad and serve right away with a Chilled Fork offered to the guest to enjoy the salad.





    Lobster Bisque surprisingly the best dish of the night, the soup  was creamy, full of flavour while the taste of cognac was not over power….



    the servers at this HK Lawry’s Steak House are quite young, this young chef who’s preparing our prime rib was a bit underweight……hahahaah



    the English Cut….



    Yorkshire Budding



    and the dessert was the special Christmas Pudding……I think among all my friends, I’m the only one who like those dried fruits and yes I”m ok with it and I only have this pudding only once a year……

  • I did not know HK has Lawry, and I have tried several Lawry restaurants in US, and their prime rib is quite good.  By the way, I have not eaten fruit cake for a long time.  Wish you Merry Christmas. 

  • Never trust a skinny chef!  =D

    Have a safe trip to HKG.  Why don’t you pop on down to BKK for a side trip?

  • @stevew918 -   the Lawry’s in HKG is introduced by the Maxims HK catering group no wonder their staff are so young…..

    @christao408 -  becos of the tight Party schedule….

    anyway let’s enjoy the holiday wherever we are….Merry Christmas…

  • You need to post more pics of the staff.  

    The prime rib looks very juicy.  (I’m not a big fruit cake fan either)

  • @ElusiveWords - too bad the young chef was a bit too shy…..
