EAT | SUNDAY'S GROCERY (Hong Kong)

Guest User April 10, 2017

A quirky concoction of speciality liquor purveyor, convenience store and take-out joint, Sunday's Grocery is the third venture by Canadian pair Matt Abergel and Lindsay Jang, of Yardbird and RONIN fame.

We got chatting to staff at a craft beer shop who told us to seek out Sundays Grocery, order Korean fried chicken and a katsu sando, buy some bevsand sit by the water or head back on the rickety old tram. And so we ventured to Kennedy Town and did exactly that.

Sadly it's now closed. Head to the website to buy online and find out where they'll be opening next.

EAT | LITTLE BAO (SoHo, Hong Kong)

Guest User March 7, 2016

Believe the hype. Head in early and line up. Little Bao.

Chef May Chow has always been known to cause a stir in culinary circles. Starting out with her sell out pop-ups at farmers markets and then opening her 20-seater restaurant in SoHo in 2013. Little Bao quickly achieved cult status with people lining up every night. Roll into 2017 and she has been awarded Asia's Best Female Chef by Asia's Top 50 Restaurants mob. What a legend!

You'll find steamed boas with Asian-inspired fillings, combining old-school Chinese flavours in modern, against the curve ways. No trip to Hong Kong is complete without a few little baos under your belt.

Pork Belly: slow-braised pork belly, leek and shiso red onion salad, sesame dressing, hoisin ketchup

Beef: grass-fed organic beef, tomato, jam, roasted onion, sesame mayo, shiso, cheddar cheese

Fish Tempura: fresh market fish, tamarind palm sugar glaze, pickled lemongrass, fennel salad

Szechuan Fried Chicken: Chinese black vinegar glaze, Szechuan mayo, coleslaw

EAT | RŌNIN (Sheung Wan, Hong Kong)

Guest User February 16, 2016

Canadian-born chef Matthew Abergel has some serious credentials. Having worked at high-end Japanese restaurants including Masa in NYC and Zuma in Hong Kong. He then opened cult yakitori restaurant Yardbird in 2011 before launching Ronin, a Japanese seafood and whisky bar, two years later.

Ronin will forever be remembered as that amazing spot in HK where we enjoyed our first glass of sparkling to celebrate our engagement. And the spot that I scammed a $100 candle outta Ryan simply because I finally said yes to his proposal. Mind you... he did ask 11 times throughout various un-romantic spots in Portland and we finally confirmed my acceptance before dinner. Oh the memories... 💍💗💍💗

Heading to Hong Kong? Make sure you book in nice and early.

Common Ground is part slow-paced cafe, part indie design store, with a wellness skewed menu. Set on the steep hills in 'PoHo', this eclectic little coffee joint features upcycled furniture and has coffee loves spilling out on to the stairs enjoying some of Central's finest. Grab a coffee and enjoy people watching.

🥐🥐 | PO'S ATELIER (Tai Ping Shan, Hong Kong)

Po's Atelier is a boutique bakery focusing on artisan breads and sweet treats. Oh that divine aroma of baking wafting through the air... bliss! From baguettes to brioche, palmiers to madelines and all sorts of pastry and wonder. Enjoy it fresh outta the oven and don't forget to take some back to your hotel for later.

EAT | ONE DIM SUM 點心 (Hong Kong)

Guest User December 2, 2015

When you see the line it’s hard to believe One Dim Sum was once a low-key dim sum joint. But with a Michelin Star and plenty of press, it’s now impossible to fly under the radar. I’ve been to this joint every time I’ve been to Hong Kong and it’s a tradition I’ll be happy to keep up.
