Their Japanese is the best in town and beats Nobu and Zuma hands down! I can&#39;t wait to try their new place in London. Oh and Dim Sum Diva would you like a glace cherry with your Kir Royale? Don&#39;t think I&#39;ve ordered a Kir Royale since I took my grandma out to the pub in 1990!John Channoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21993365.post-11221790233367313692009-10-08T16:25:01.237+01:002009-10-08T16:25:01.237+01:00Dim Sum Diva&#39;s experiences are certainly very different from mine! I&#39;m a regular customer at Hutong and Aqua, and I&#39;ve had some great nights there over the years. Michelin gave Hutong a star earlier this year, and they&#39;re pretty decent judges. I went to Aqua Nueva during its first week, and the food and service were excellent. Looking forward to sampling their Japanese place too.Intrepid Dinernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21993365.post-89818582752840387672009-10-07T15:01:00.322+01:002009-10-07T15:01:00.322+01:00Was really interested to read this. The Aqua group&#39;s restaurants in Hong Kong are a little pants (once served a Kir Royale in a wine glass, etc.) . They&#39;re really nothing to write home about, except that they lucked out with an extremely awesome location with a fantastic view of HK Harbour. I was pretty surprised to hear about the expansion to London considering how average the Aqua restaurants are.Dim Sum Divahttp://threelittlepiglets.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21993365.post-24930030326590363572009-10-06T14:06:47.028+01:002009-10-06T14:06:47.028+01:00A touch of the Hollyoaks about it?Grobelaarhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15885924794586675336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21993365.post-26082582735671112682009-10-06T13:07:12.175+01:002009-10-06T13:07:12.175+01:00Ha Ha.
