Lupa, not the wolf but the restaurant

I go open party of Lupa with Sweet Sweet Boyfriend and his foody friends.  I took picture with the fat chef and I no know who that is.  Foody Woman say "Lucky you!  That's Mario Batali, the Iron Chef, one of the partners of Eataly.  You know that, right?"  I say "Of course!"  Why Iron Chef not Cast Iron Chef?  Sweet Sweet Boyfriend said Cast Iron pan very good...  Eataly?  Isn't it Italy?  Hmm....

And boys and girls fan, sorry!  No show my face because I need anonymity (or is it annoyance?  I no know which word. Sweet Sweet Boyfriend no teaching me good) as food blogger! 

Anyway, many Foody people write about Lupa and I need to go.  After all, I am grand food blogger.  How I no go for review?  So,  I went with girlfriends for lunch.   I remember what those Foody friends of Sweet Sweet Boyfriend say about food writer, they no go bling bling. So, I took my Tod's Bauletto that Sweet Sweet Boyfriend bought me.  I no see too many in HK yet.  

Restaurant say very grand place in New York City but service just ok in HK.   Place too big and long walk to table and have to see many people.  We went to table and Huh?  They no have stool!?  No stool!?  They really lucky because I go with two girlfriends and we put bags in one chair.  Not grand but at least no on floor.  

Lunch is buffet and you add money to add main and dessert.  I pick lots of salad because I eat healthy like all stylish people.  I no understand why they no cut arugula.  So long and difficult to cut.  The arugula must  be good though because taste so much stronger than one form super market.  I also ate beet root, cold cut and cheese.  All ok texture and taste fresh.  

I no know what to eat for main and ask recommendation. Waitress said try Garganelli with Oxtail Ragu.  Oxtail slow cook.  I say slow cook very good. Sweet Sweet Boyfriend say meat slow cook good texture and juicy.  Pasta texture good but oxtail not strong taste enough.  The orange too strong and no oxtail taste left.  

All girls, even on diet, love dessert.  I go spinning class and ask my personal trainer to increase my weight from 2 lbs to 3 lbs but I need eat dessert.  I went to dessert table and got lemon tart, meringue, apple tart, cheese cake and chestnut mouse?  Everything so soft and cute.  Sweet Sweet Boyfriend will no like apple and lemon tart because base soft and no char but I ok.  I did not finish lemon tart because night before, I ate best lemon tart by Foody Baker Woman and I no eat any lemon tart not as good.

Restaurant ok but I ask Sweet Sweet Boyfriend take me New York to eat at real Lupa so that I can say "I ate at NY one!"
