A Fairy Menu Tasting at 8 ½ Otto E Mezzo Bombana Restaurant, Hong Kong.

Yesterday I introduced you to Chef Bombana, and today I am going to explain you the astounding menu tasting I had at his Three Michelin Star awarded restaurant.

Chef Bombana is adorable and the team is very professional, kind, elegant and smiling. Thanks to all for taking care of me!.

I had a private table, so it was perfect for my chat with Chef Bombana.

Sorry I don´t have a picture for the dessert! I was so exited with our conversation and I let go the time immerse with the chocolate, the wine, the atmosphere, the relaxing music and Mr. Bombana histories… I have eaten all! 😉

 

During the meal I felt like a real princess – How are you? How is Hong Kong treating you? Is there anything we could do for you? Is everything OK? Do you need anything else?… ”“ Adorable, isn´t it?.

I have to say that Otto E Mezzo Bombana have more than three Michelin stars, they have my magic wand so, one more star, Mr. Bombana, another huge star, and all the PR staff and the staff working at the restaurant! so they have the sky!

My magic wand with the awards!

Hard working, passion and sensibility make the restaurant a must experience!.

Thanks again to all the team who make one of my dreams come true!.

After that, I went to visit the Big Buddha… I think I was a small Buddha too…;)
