Where to Eat in Hong Kong This October 2021
From an autumn Middle Eastern feast to a revamped Italian American social club, here’s where to eat in Hong Kong in October 2021.
Estro
Celebrated Italian chef Antimo Maria Merone has opened his first independent restaurant, in Central’s Duddell Street. Estro — it means inspiration — focuses on elevated Neapolitan cuisine with deeply personal dishes and unexpected pairings. The debut seasonal menu draws inspiration from Merone’s childhood dishes, which are audaciously innovated through elegant plating and techniques. Highlights include Pigeon Under Ashes, a nod to Mount Vesuvius served with an artichoke cooked in its own ashes and a sauce made with Piedirosso wine, and Tomato Homage, which explores the fruit’s complex textures with processes that include poaching and clarifying.
Estro, 2/F, 1 Duddell St, Central
Maison Libanaise
As part of the autumn plated series, Maison Libanaise is launching a Fête d'Automne menu with creations that include whipped feta with smoked honey and Samke Lubieh, a crispy snapper fillet served with peas and a Beiruti pesto.

Frank's

Krug
For the sixth Krug x Single Ingredient programme, 11 Krug Ambassades Chefs unleashed their imagination on the humble onion.
