A new place to hang out

Newly opened in June, RHODA is a thriving scene in Sai Yung Pun.
Headed by Yenn Wong of JIA and Nate Green from 22 Ships and Ham & Sherry.
The menu is big and vast serving the best of local ingredients available so the menu changes daily.

Equipped with a charcoal grill, they specialize in lots of grilled meats and seafood.

Here was what we had that night:

+++++
Beer bread (Suntory dark ale), seaweed butter:
 0 讚好

The bread was a great start, it was yeasty light and airy.
++++++
Wild Hereford beef jerky:
 0 讚好

The jerky was dry and chewy with a sweet taste to it.
+++++++
Chicken wings glazed with Xeres vinegar:
 0 讚好

Cooked over the charcoal, there was an aromatic charred crisp surface on the chicken with a lovely sticky sweetness.
+++++++
Cured New Zealand salmon, heritage beetroots, rhubarb:
 0 讚好

This was refresing with the crisp beets and rhubarb.
+++++++
Terrine of Middle White pig’s head & shoulder:
 0 讚好

The terrine was soft and silky like pulled pork.
+++++++
Hokkaido scallops, pink grapefruit, basil:
 0 讚好

+++++++
Brink’s farm free range chicken, spring onion:
 0 讚好

The roast chicken was flawless, it was juicy from all the way through from the white meat to dark meat.
+++++++
Snapper baked in kombu, oregano & lemon dressing:
 0 讚好

The fish was interesting because it was baked in Kombu which gives it a slight flavouring on the fish skin, while keeping the fish moist.
 0 讚好

+++++++
Maitake mushroom risotto, new season truffle:
 0 讚好

The risotto was quite strong because the cheese was quite prominent.
+++++++
Vanilla cheesecake, rhubarb, raspberry:
 0 讚好

I loved the rhubard and I am glad to see that a lot more restaurants are using rhubarb on the menu.
+++++++
Chocolate, mint, marshmallow:
 0 讚好

For dessert, finished with this delicious combination of chocolate, mint and marshmallows.
The marshmallow was lovely and gooey.
+++++++
