Pierre is one of my favorite restaurants in Hong Kong.
The place is understated yet classy, elegant yet comfortable.
So simple and so effortlessly WHOA!!!
I want to take home the vavavoom chandelier!
And the breathtaking views of Kowloon from our window seats
The bottle
I'm tempted to have these yummy breads and wine all night, but afraid the server might kick me out :P
If you think the place is sexy, wait till you see the food!
At Pierre, every course gives birth to many baby plates, like a degustation within a degustation.
