3R

Despite its hidden away place in North Point most of the tables were occupied in restaurant 3R when I went there for lunch. The restaurant has a L-shaped interior with white walls, yellow curtains and a little bar giving access to the kitchen. The minimal style of the interior gave me the idea it was not finished yet.
I chose the two-course set lunch for HK$ 98: oxtail soup and tagliatelle with clams, mushrooms and pesto. As side dish some black colored buns were served. The waiter explained that the black color was created from black octopus ink. The looks of the bun were a bit odd, but the taste was good.
The oxtail soup was served in a nice shaped plate and tasted really subtle with fresh vegetables. The main course showed a large portion of pasta with many clams and a bit pesto. I ended the meal with a coffee which was included in the set lunch.
Actually the name of the restaurant was a true promotion for the nice lunch I had. Manager Edith of the restaurant told me that 3R stands for ‘good restaurant’. It is recommendable due to its good food and friendly service. I hope, however, the interior will get redesigned and radiate a warmer atmosphere. The food really deserves it.
3R can easily be reached in North Pont by tram, there is a stop in front of the beginning of Jupiter Street.
