duck on the peak

yesterday, i had the most delicious birthday dinner!
Larry took me to a nice Asian-Australian restaurant on the top of the peak, called Pearl on the Peak. i order an entree of braised duck legs cooked in lemongrass and red curry, served with coconut-flavored rice. wow, was i impressed at how incredible it all tasted. perhaps it's my newfound love and appreciation of Asian curry and coconut flavors, or maybe it reminded me of being back in Southeast Asia. what i know is that despite feeling full halfway through the meal, i forced myself to finish the whole dish and essentially surrendered the last of my stomach space normally reserved for dessert to it... because i loved it THAT much! we even had the chance to give our compliments to the chef in person. the restaurant itself was very nice and classy with a perfect view of Victoria Harbour, and dinner included complimentary pre-meal appetizers and petite fours desserts. i believe i'll be dreaming of this braised duck dish until we return there for another nice dinner!

i definitely recommend this restaurant! (reservations necessary)
