Le Pain Quotidien - Hong Kong

Great food. few server (so can slow) but very polite.

Le Pain Quotidien (LPQ) is a Belgian based bakery that now has a handful of branches around he city including here at Pacific Place in Admiralty. Opening hours are 8am to 10pm daily. This is a good place for European style bistro meals that are healthy and reasonably priced. We stopped by recently for a light and early breakfast, enjoying a round of coffees and the hazelnut flute (bread) that tasted the same as what we have been served at LPQ branches in Europe in recent years. Coffees tasted decent, what you expect here in HK. Seating is mix of small tables for 2-4 patrons as well as an expected communal table. Staff were friendly and service timely during our recent visit. Overall, an expectedly good stop at LPQ, one we'll happily make again in the future.

The food quality becomes better now and they also serve the lunch set with soup and drink at around 140-150 HKD. The chai is not as good as expected. Fair price and quality at busy Admiralty.

The service level changed a lot here. It was no longer attentive as before there was a queue without attending in the morning. Waitress mostly carried rush and uptight faces.

Ordered the bakers breakfast. Dry scone with no butter, old tasteless fruit, a pathetic wilted tomato, bland oily eggs and mushrooms. Plus the service was terrible, spent 5 minutes trying to get a waiter despite the restaurant being empty. Definitely would not recommend this place.
