If you ask me to describe it in only one word, I will say Il Milione is so… GOLD.
Look.
The Door
The Bar
The Lounge
The Private Room
The Main Dining Room
The Molton Brown Hand Wash and Lotion. Lol! :)
I suddenly felt out of place in my green shorts and FitFlops, but the nice staff walked me to my table and welcomed me warmly with a drink.
Apple and celery juice. So refreshing in this Hong Kong heat!
I couldn't resist crusty breads when served with olive oil this good.
I think I finished all of it - bread and oil.
My appetizer was a warm salad of buffalo mozzarella and breaded tomato puree.
This was such a simple dish but it tasted so divine that I couldn't stop moaning and groaning
with each bite of the creamy and flavorful cheese. The tomato was a perfect balance between
sweetness and acidity. This stuff I can eat forever.
Main course was a simple grilled black cod with sautéed vegetables
Beautiful char marks on the outside and unbelievably moist and creamy inside
It would have been a perfect lunch if the tiramisu were more… tiramisu.
This one was more chocolate without a hint of coffee.
And I needed my coffee. I also prefer it strong and black.
Little cookies all lined up for me to eat
On my way out, the bar manager named "Rush" handed me the drinks menu.
It looked very interesting. I also found out that the owners of Il Milione are the
same owners of Las Flores in Manila! I will have to come back for a drink.
