There are not many Australian restaurants in HK so the only Australian places I have tried are Flames, Seasalt, which serve specific things.
Since I have just tried this place, I intend to try Bellbrook too.
The Grill room is themed by these wolves which actually look like cute foxes.
I love the table sheets, which are so tempting to colour in if I had colouring pencils.

I ended up ordering too much because the portions were really big.

For starters, I chose the sharing board which lets you choose 3 or 4 little bites and the portion was huge.
I had the mushrooms, chicken, clams and calamari.

The calamari came with a lovely yoghurt sauce which was loaded with cucumbers.

Cauliflower, almonds and crispy garlic:

The cauliflower had a strong buttery aroma and taste.

Slow braised beef cheek ragu fettucine:
 3 讚好

The beef was soft and gelatinous as expected but the ragu sauce was a tad too spicy but I loved the cumin that was in it because it is a bit like chili con carne.
I think it should say spicy on the menu because Ragu is not usually spicy.

Crispy pork belly:
 4 讚好

It is nice that the chef has marinated the pork belly with kumquat which gives the pork belly an interesting taste.
 3 讚好

The buttery caramelized apples tasted great with the smoky pork belly.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆
Peri peri spring chicken

This tastes just as good as the chicken from Flames.
It was tender, juicy and flavourful.
