Ciak – in the kitchen has been opened for a while now, it is located on the 3/F of landmark where three-sixty used to be. Now there’s also Urban Bakery Works, Pret and Ciak which is a casual dining venture by Italian chef Umberto Bombana of three-Michelin-starred 8 1/2 Ozzo e Mezzo.

There are two sections of the restaurant, a walk-in section for buying take away and a restaurant section for eating in. Now the choices for walk-in section is very limited, they have soups, salads, pizzas and desserts on offer which are ordered directly from the counters.
I was here for lunch and opt for the set lunch. I had a quick look at the a-la-carte menu and it was not cheap. 2 courses for HKD268 but the option i have to say was pretty good.
The bread was nicely warm, fresh from the oven

We both started with the mushroom soup – it was deliciously creamy and hearty and a perfect way to start the meal.

I couldn’t go past the char-grilled US sirloin steak with arugula salad. I was a little surprised when it arrived on the table – the serving was TINY but it was excellent. Succulent, tender and cooked to perfection.

R opt for pan-fried salmon, french bean and mashed potato. I am always a little wary about ordering salmon, most of the time it is over cooked but this was perfect, pink on the inside and wasn’t dry. Her gripe was that the same as mine – definitely could have eaten more of it.

Unfortunately I didn’t have time for dessert, however, the chocolate brownie with hazelnut ice cream sounds good. I have always enjoyed at Ozzo, so really enjoyed my meal here, even though I didn’t even try the pizza or pasta – definitely next time!
