Nicholini's

This Northern Italian restaurant offers some excellent views of the Hong Kong skyline. The restaurant's stylish interior is noteworthy for its Murano glass collection and organza screens. The antipasti and main dishes like the seasoned lobster are popular, as are the ravioli with spinach, cheese and mushroom sauce. The potato gnocchi with melted Castelmagno cheese is especially good, while many diners come here simply to feast on the line-caught sea bass steak, cooked in a tomato olives and capers. The wine list is quite extensive, and the desserts, especially Nicholini's signature souffle with choices of sauce, are difficult to resist. MTR: Admiralty.
