Common Grounds
上環永和街33號地下

Common Grounds is not to be confused with Common Ground because they serve very different styles of dishes and both happen to be in the Central/Sheungwan area.
Honestly I was expecting a bit more because it was located in the Sheung Wan area.
The food served was the general Chinese style Western dishes that you can find elsewhere such as pasta, steaks and fish.
The salad was ok but the greens could have been more crisp.
The soup was ok but them cream on top made it a bit too creamy.
Out of the whole menu, the roast pork knuckle was the one I liked but the wasabi could not be tasted because it was meant to be honey and wasabi roasted pork knuckle.
The hot chocolate was quite nice but unfortunately it had rose in it which ruined it.
The lemon panna cotta was nice because the taste and texture was nothing like real panna cotta.
I actually liked the curd texture of the dessert and it was not too creamy like proper panna cotta.
