Gaddi's is a French haute cuisine restaurant situated in The Peninsula Hong Kong hotel. It was opened in 1953 and named after a former general manager of The Peninsula, Leo Gaddi. The current executive chef is Rémi Van Peteghem. The former executive chef was Philip Sedgwick, the first British head chef of Gaddi's.

Decor

The decor is meant to evoke old Hong Kong and the hotel's original 1928 neoclassical architecture. It has a European dining room, with two six-foot crystal-and-silver chandeliers from Paris, Tai Ping carpets, and a Chinese coromandel screen dating from 1670.^[1]

It also created the first chef's table{{Citation needed|date=September 2008}} in Hong Kong where the Chef Table diners sit at a special table beside the Gaddi's kitchen viewing the dishes being prepared.

Food

The food is classically French but with inventive European influences.Online Frommer's review

Examples of past dishes include:

Raw-marinated foie gras with toasted brioche
Twice-cooked pork belly with mustard risotto
Bitter herb salad and balsamico sauce
Specially selected American Black Angus Sirloin baked in a rosemary and salt crust with pea puree
Roquefort fritters and pan-fried rye bread with melted Camembert and oscietra caviar

There is a ten course tasting menu which lets the diners taste a sample of many of Gaddi's famous dishes.

The wine cellar is among the best and largest in Hong Kong{{Citation needed|date=September 2008}}, with a collection of rare vintages.

In a 2006 Independent feature on romantic dining, author Alexandra Antonioni wrote:

"They don't make restaurants like this any more and everyone should dine at Gaddi's at least once in their lifetime. Nothing can touch it for glamour and sheer indulgence."^[2]
