Brut!
Some say Brut! is the cosiest wine bar in Hong Kong, and we would tend to agree with them! This intimate restaurant boasts not only a scrumptious seasonal menu, but wide knowledge of the perfect pairing bottle of wine. And this upcoming season sounds like it won’t disappoint.
Spring / Summer specials

Grandma’s Rolls – a playful take on a classic American cinnamon roll, with a distinctly Asian twist, crafted from a buttery brioche dough and a miso glaze
Sichuan Tiger Prawns – features a bright and umami-rich prawn head sabayon, garnished with vibrant Sichuan chilli oil for just the right amount of ma la spice
Champagne tasting (HK$380/4 tasting glasses)
No bookings, walk-in only.

Mendel’s Delicatessen
There is a new cool kid in Kennedy town, this all-day coffee bar and deli is inspired by the classics of New York. And it’s certainly giving us that vibe, with all day breakfast and Everything Bagels you by Schmuck you bagel co, the menu is mouth-watering. So if you aren’t quite ready to give up brunch yet, this place is worth checking out.
Veda
Celebrate the vegetable this spring!
Veda is a celebration of the Earth and all that comes with it. Crafted by our chefs, the vibrant vegetable champions our menu with dishes that are minimally processed, rich in flavour, yet simplistic by nature.
Tasting Veda’s complex, yet natural flavours should be more of a celebration than a sacrifice. Veda’s dishes are not centred around the “without”; rather they are focused on the “with” – food with flavour, with texture, with creativity, with thought.
