Assaggio Trattoria Italiana

It was a retro celebration of my birthday. Fanny brought me to Assaggio in Tsimshashui.   It was full and we sat outside the restaurant.  Though the environment is ideal, the food compensated it.  Our appetiser was not the average dishes found elsewhere but creative and delicious.  We began with beans and shrimp salad.  It was fresh and the combination delivered a surprising good impression and memory.

Colours, we liked the bright and happy moods of the pumpkin and vegetables lying on bread.   Fantastic assimilation of different vegetables in harmony and imposed no threat of weight gain.

It came our meat, charcoal beef.  Medium rare, tender and beefy!  Potato was served.

Our reunion ended with Tiramisu and chocolate mousse.  I would say I could made better ones.

There is another Assaggio Trattoria Italiana in Wanchai, at the Arts Centre and managed by the Miramar Group.  The two have the same logo.  The one in Wanchai is more elegant and won a few awards and recommended by the Michelin.
