Rustico is an authentic Spanish escape, bringing modern day Barcelona style dishes to Hong Kong. Executive Chef Juanjo Carrillo’s concept is traditional with a contemporary twist, which he successfully accomplishes throughout his delicious menu. We recommend starting with a selection of their delicious tapas including the Deep Fried Spanish Padron Peppers, the crispy Andalusian Style Deep Fried Baby Squid, the Spanish Spicy Chorizo in Sherry Wine, and the indulgent Deep Fried Chicken Croquettes. We loved everything paired with their wines recommended by the knowledgeable staff. Their decadent main courses are perfect for sharing and we couldn’t get enough of their tender and perfectly prepared Crispy Suckling Pig, which is one of the best we’ve had in Hong Kong. We also highly recommend their Prawns “Al Ajillo” fried with garlic, chili and extra virgin olive oil, and their “Rustico” Seafood Paella.
Rustico is currently offering a special menu featuring a local Spanish vegetable which is seasonal and only available at the restaurant until the end of February. Calcots are traditionally served with Catalans in the Winter when they are eager to welcome warmer months. Chef Carillo has prepared this imported treat in it’s traditional style and has even supplied a simple step by step eating guide to show you the authentic way to enjoy the delicacy. We loved the fresh Charcoal Grilled “Calcots” with traditional “Sadvitchada” sauce, and the Spanish Coca with Grilled Escalibada and confit calcots with black olives and anchovies. Make sure to sample this delacay before it’s too late!
