LucAle

After closing its doors back in January for renovation, Sai Ying Pun’s neighbourhood Italian restaurant LucAle has now reopened with not just a brand new look but also a fresh menu. Created collaboratively by chefs Alessandro Angelini and Luca De Berardinis, the new dishes revolve around exquisite seafood that spotlights the best of what the Italian Coast has to offer, featuring items such as thinly-sliced warm baby cuttlefish with pistachio cream ($238), green cappelletti filled with sea bass with Sorrento lemon foam and caviar sauce ($368), hand-cut tagliolini pasta with lobster, prawn, and scallop ragout in fresh tomato and basil sauce ($298), and a 24-hour slow cooked Wagyu beef cheek with celery root purée and caramelised kumquat ($308).
