299. Harbour Sixty

Last week I went for dinner at Harbour Sixty, one of the top steakhouses in the city, with my friend. It was one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Amazing food, stunning decor and the service was just perfect. We ended up staying there for 5 hours (we were actually the last two there) and left incredibly full with two boxes each of leftovers. One of the things I loved most about this place was that the portions were all large, unlike many other high-end restaurants. Harbour Sixty is both quality and quantity..I definitely recommend it (especially if you love steak or wine).


The cheese and olives that came with the bread. & I really loved our velvet seating.

Our server was telling us the specials and mentioned this burrata cheese, which is flown in fresh every few days straight from Italy..to which my friend responded "we can't say no to that!", and with my new-found love for burrata cheese (which I tried for the first time in my life the previous night) I was eager to order it. So we each got our own plate of burrata cheese with grilled tomato and crustini. We were both amazed at how good it was..so light and creamy. Definitely order this if you go there! My cocktail was a Milano Spritz.


So good it deserves a close-up.


Appetizer #2: I went for the Applewood Smoked Salmon. (The yellow thing on the side is the lemon)

My friend's second appetizer: Pancetta Wrapped Sea Scallops. See what I mean about large portions? Actually in this photo these don't look so big but they were..the pancetta/bacon was a bit spicy and so delicious

Now onto the mains...


I got a 10oz Filet Mignon and my friend got the Broiled Caribbean Lobster Tail. Our server recommended us his favourite side dishes: parmesan truffle fries, asparagus and truffle mac and cheese. Loved everything.

A little break from all the food photos. Harbour Sixty has the most extensive wine list of any restaurant I've visited so far (their wine list came in a full sized binder). They have over 1000 different kinds. All the bottles were displayed throughout the restaurant behind sleek glass cabinets.

Now back to the food. With a tiny bit of room left for dessert, we shared three different ones. Here is the Molten Chocolate Cake. Normally I don't like anything really chocolate-y but I have to say this was really delicious. It's not that sweet and has a very rich taste.


LOVED this as well..the Coconut Cream Pie

& finally, the Creme Brulee. Regretfully I was already way too full by that point to have much of this lol. They have a very long dessert menu here. I wanted to try everything!!

5 hours later (our dinner lasted from 6-11pm), our leftovers were wrapped up for us and put into this nice little bag.


Even the boxes were nice - lined with gold


Here's their bar

& one of the private rooms "Louis XIII". They have a few other private rooms where they do a lot of business meetings, business dinners, weddings etc.
Oh & another random fact - they have those high-tech electronic toilets here! Haven't seen those since I was in Japan..
