【食記】Albert Dock 午餐記－il Giardino Romantico

這個餐廳的名字我已經忘了。不過就位於Albert Dock內。非常的好找。其實在做完黃色鴨鴨艇之後，我們姐弟兩人本來只想簡簡單單的吃一餐。但基於小弟那龜毛『餐餐都要有湯』的習慣，簡單的一餐也變成正式的一餐了。我本來想點soup of the day，但又怕自己已經被撐大的肚皮，光是喝湯一下就餓了。後來看到這家餐廳的炸魚薯條『兒童餐』的價錢與soup of the day差不多，我就想來試試看這一家的炸魚薯條。因為在此之前我只有在簡單的外賣店吃過。好吃歸好吃，但看到這家餐廳的氣派還不錯，就想說應該會吃到更好吃的炸魚薯條吧！

I couldn't remember the name of the restaurant, but it's located inside Albert Dock, and it can't be difficult to find. After our adventure on the Yellow Duck Marine, we were actually looking for a quick meal. However, since my friend insisted on having soup with every meal, a simple meal became a full meal. I was going to order soup of the day, initially, but seeing that my appetite had vastly expanded, I didn't want to risk becoming hungry too soon. I thought I'd try their fish and chips, children's meal, since the price was pretty much the same. This was not the first time I had fish and chips, but seeing that this restaurant had a good atmosphere, I thought they would probably serve better quality food.

每日一湯。Soup of the day.

小弟點的香腸與馬鈴薯泥。My friend's meal.

非常非常好吃的炸魚薯條。Savory fish and chips.

結果果然沒令我失望。因為我早就猜到若是點成人餐，一定又會太多吃不完。兒童餐的份量一定剛剛好！而且呢，他的薯條雖然看起來量少，但吃進口中真的有馬鈴薯的味道。不像一般外賣店都是拿現成的來炸。這家餐廳的薯條感覺上是純手工的。另外，邊邊的那些豆子也不是省油的燈。因為似乎還加上了羅勒，一口接著一口，真的很香！最後就是重頭戲。至今，加上這次的，我一共吃過三次的炸魚薯條。這間的炸魚，肯定是比前兩次吃到的還要好吃太！多！了！因為完全不油！餐廳提供的檸檬也一點都不吝嗇。讓我吃的實在很過癮！

In the end, I was not disappointed. I knew that the size of the ordinary meal would have been too large a portion for me. The size of this was perfect. And although the portion of the chips looks insufficient, you'll be surprised at how good they taste. Unlike the usual frozen chips, these tasted like real potatoes. Also, the beans had a special aroma added to them. I think it must be basil, or some other kind of herb. I've had fish and chips at two other restaurants before, but I must say that this is way better than the previous ones. For one thing, it was not oily at all. The big chunck of lemon also contributed to my enjoyment of the fish.

更幸運的是，我們用餐的時間，雖然早就超過中午，但卻被我們遇上了現場演唱的表演。一邊用餐，一邊聽現場演唱，即使外頭飄著小雨，一點都不破壞當天的閒情逸致。

Furthermore, even though it was way past noon, we were there in time for one of the live performances in the afternoon. What an enjoyment! Meal and live performance! We forgot all about the sprinkly rain outside!
