My first dinner in Hong Kong on this trip was with an American couple who have lived in Hong Kong for eight years. Dining with them in the past, I have eaten delicious Tibetan and Filipino food, in addition to great dim sum. So that night, imagine my disappointment when Alex and Jayne suggested… Italian… at the Grand Hyatt. Of course, it didn’t matter that the food, wine and service at Grissini were impeccable; that the homemade minestrone soup was completely fresh and light; that the pumpkin and porcini mushroom risotto was a perfect mix of creamy and tangy; that the conversation and company were perfect. I wanted my Asian food.
