Recently discovered a high-value Spanish restaurant at ELEMENTS in Tsim Sha Tsui! The newly opened Rico Rico features a distinctive red and green color scheme, along with contemporary paintings, mosaic patterns, brass chandeliers, adding an exotic atmosphere to the dining space.
The restaurant specializes in a variety of family-style Spanish cuisine, with generous portions and a mix of traditional flavors with modern elements, full of surprises! Signature dishes include “Spanish Iberico ham with fresh tomato sauce on toast”, with sourdough toast baked to a golden crisp, and 18-month cured Spanish Iberico ham that is tender, paired with fresh tomato puree to enhance the ham’s richness! If you love Spanish ham, you can also try the “Iberico pork Spanish pizza”, with a Coca pizza base topped with Cheddar cheese and Mozzarella cheese, then layered with Spanish Iberico ham, full of savory flavors!
The traditional Spanish stuffed eggplant dish Berenjenas Rellenas is transformed into “Baked Eggplant Stuffed with Tuna”, where the eggplant flesh is hollowed out and filled with a stuffing made from tuna, Spanish vinegar, and sea salt, topped with cheese for a crispy finish!

Classic Spanish cuisine would not be complete without seafood paella, and here the paella is innovatively infused with elements of “surf and turf”! The “Spanish King Prawn and Beef Paella” is topped with beef, mussels, and tiger prawns, making for a visually stunning dish! The chef simmers a variety of fish and shellfish to make the seafood broth, then adds Bomba Rice, saffron, and crab paste to cook up the Paella seafood rice, allowing the plump grains of rice to exude a seafood aroma! The slow-cooked beef on top is cooked at a low temperature for 75 minutes, maintaining a tender texture, along with New Zealand mussels sautéed with white wine, butter, and herbs, and tiger prawns seared to a golden brown, truly satisfying!
As for must-try desserts, the top recommendation is the “Signature Basque Cheesecake”, with a crispy outer layer and a dense inner layer. Every bite is filled with a rich cheese aroma, combined with vanilla seeds handpicked from whole vanilla pods, adding another layer of flavor! Paired with a glass of Sangria full of Spanish flavors, making the dining experience even more enjoyable!
