AGNES B.
INFILTRATE THE BREATH OF FRENCH
With French rose as its theme, agnès b. FLEURISTE at Taikoo Place (Quarry Bay, Hong Kong) has been renovated and reopened recently. In keeping with the love of floral, the agnès b. florist is set up like a garden in South of France, placing over thirty types of roses (from Kenya, The Netherlands, República del Ecuador and more) together. Each bouquet is wrapped in black or grey paper and tied with signature agnès b. FLEURISTE ribbon, completing the French chic aesthetic.
In keeping with the French retro aesthetic of the newly opened agnès b. café LPG, wooden dinning table and chair, Morocco mosaic floor, blackboard written with menu and the rest of the set up creates a relaxing atmosphere. Open kitchen churns out freshly baked bread and cakes, such as croissants and blueberry, green apple and chocolate fruit tart. Main dishes include crepe (French pancake) made with buckwheat flour and filled with Gruyere cheese, Emmental cheese and Australian free range eggs (especially imported by air). Vegetarian omlette is filled aubergine, zucchini and other types of vegetables, with eggs cook to order. Tartines (open sandwich) is made with single bottom bread layer, a popular French breakfast made with black olive, Italian anchovy and fresh tomato. Pairing French light meal with floral surrounding, a fresh take on modern French lifestyle.
