Express Lunch

It's unfortunate that my line of work (in my full time job) didn't take me to as many fine-dining places as I would like to, but here's one rare occasion that I got to join some of my industry peers over at a business lunch at Pierre of MO not long ago. Not my first time dining inside the private room on top of the hotel with perfect view of the harbor skyline and the city, but this time I realized the setting is just perfect for a casual, small group luncheon, with space to mingle and a comfortable long table for a sit-down meal in a cozy room at the back of the restaurant.

Le Grand Petit-Dejeuner

While being a perfect day to stay outdoors to enjoy the gorgeous sunny day on a Sunday afternoon, I opted to spend time on top of Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong to check out the new Sunday brunch menu at Pierre with a group of food-loving friends. It’s been years since I last ate at this Michelin-starred restaurant (and never during the day before) and with their new Sunday brunch offering only introduced in mid-January, I was curious to try what’s on offer and see how the place now stacks up against other restaurants of similar calibre.
