Anyone eaten at Magnolia in Hong Kong? Help!
I also lived in NY for 10 yrs so I can relate to a love for great food. For Magnolia, stick to their inhouse specialty - Southern comfort food. Note that food service takes forever - very slow. DO NOT go for their fine dining catering. I thought it would come with the same care and quality as their Southern food - big mistake. After a short conversation with the chef they sent to my home, I discovered that they sent me a part-time BBQ chef. I got ripped off for a HK$650 per person meal. The food was highly unrefined, salty, and the portion was offensively large. I called the owner Lori to talk to her about this. She made a half-assed attempt to return my call. She called me back. Left me a voicemail. I called her back two to three times. Never heard from her again. I would consider that unprofessional, rude, callous and breathtakingly lacking in integrity as a business owner and chef.
