"Celebrating the colourful, vibrant food culture of Sri Lanka, where casual eateries flourish on the streets all over Colombo, Hotal Colombo mimics the roadside eateries frequented by locals, offering snacks, quick bites, and a gathering place to unwind throughout the day."

"New Punjab Club on Wyndham Street in Central pays homage to the cuisine of post-colonial Punjab, a province shared between India and Pakistan."

"This year's favourite goes to Black Sheep Restaurants' modern Soho izakaya, which impressed readers with its electric atmopshere, solid execution of fun Japanese fare by chef Shun Sato, and refreshing whisky highballs."

New Punjab Club and BELON are featured in T.Dining's 20 Top Restaurants in Hong Kong.

"Upon entering Ho Lee Fook it’s almost impossible to head down the stairs to the restaurant without taking the time for a quick photo, or even better, a boomerang. The lucky cat wall epitomises the restaurant’s modern and quirky take on Chinese cuisine, and may just be our favourite thing about the place – second only to its famed short ribs."

喜歡只在晚上才醒來的日本居酒屋，不是因為我「喜愛夜蒲亅，而是入座那刻我肯定處於放低工作的放鬆狀態。

在香港雖然賣薄餅的快餐式連鎖店很多，但要找到一家正宗的意大利薄餅其實也不難，尤其是在中環蘇豪區這個多文化聚匯點，而當中藏於窄巷、電梯旁的這家 MOTORINO 就是其中一家代表。

"For the first time, Black Sheep Restaurants are rolling out the Black Series – a week-long celebration of dining across 18 eateries.

"Reopened in 2017, the hotel has moved its lobby upstairs to make room for a new centrepiece: Italian restaurant Osteria Marzia. Deep-blue tiles and fresh seafood displays offer a taste of the Amalfi Coast on Victoria Harbour and an introduction to the maritime theme that runs throughout the hotel."

"Black Sheep Restaurants opens its first Japanese izakaya, Fukuro, bringing the intoxicating energy of Tokyo after dark to Hong Kong."

"From the neon cow on the sign at the entrance, to the dessert trolley coming round just when you think you couldn't eat another bite, La Vache! doesn't disappoint."

For this relatively young restaurant group, 2016 was already a landmark year, with three stellar new openings in the first six months alone. And it's looking like another bumper year for restaurateurs Syed Asim Hussain and Christopher Mark, who have lifted the veil on three new venues in 2017.

"The restaurant is set to open later this month, but you can expect strong holiday vibes from this one, which is inspired by the coastal, family-run osterias that dot Italy's coast."

"The winds of Vietnam continue to blow through Hong Kong, and one of the strongest contenders for the city’s best banh mi thit (aka banh mi) is Le Petit Saigon, a quaint takeout counter located next to sister restaurant Le Garcon Saigon."

"Under the helm of chef Daniel Calvert, Belon somehow makes the farm-to-table approach work wonders in Hong Kong's notoriously farmland-starved territory."

“As the name suggested, Buenos Aires Polo Club is more like an exclusive gentlemen’s polo club than your typical steakhouse and pays homage to the golden ear of the 1900s.”

“You may have already fallen for Le Garcon Saigon in the Star Street precinct, with his cool, open-air facade and deeply flavourful grilled meats made from the Vietnamese chef's mama's recipes. Well, now you can sample the goods from this boy's little bro next door, and he's as uncomplicated as they come, serving only one thing, bánh mì thịt, or pork banh mi.”

“So how do you guarantee your pork chop is juicy AF? You brine it. Or, in the case of this Vietnamese-inspired chop from Bao La—chef of Hong Kong's Brasserie Le Garcon Saigon — you make a marinade that's fresh and sweet and savoury as hell.”

“The Star Street Precinct just got a little more interesting with the opening of Le Petit Saigon, the sister branch of Le Garcon Saigon, which serves nothing but a single item – the humble yet ultra-popular banh mi thit.”

“Stepping into Buenos Aires Polo Club bar, you can have a taste of the famous luxurious private club life of the time, as well as the iconic cocktails.”

“Maison Libanaise, SoHo’s favourite Lebanese restaurant, is kicking off summer tomorrow with the first of their weekend sessions, starring two Instagram favourites: skewers, and frosé: the picture-perfect combination of ice, rosé and fresh strawberry puree.”

“Buenos Aires Polo Club’s strong red ale by Otro Mundo Brewing Company has a sweetness that goes very well with Malvaviscos, a nostalgic dessert which involves toasting marshmallow tableside. This is a great beer pairing with dessert.”

"Carbone started out life in Greenwich Village, New York – so you can be sure that the Hong Kong outpost understands the need of any would-be diner in search of carb-filled NYC/Italian fare. And it certainly delivers."

"On the menu a month after Belon’s opening, the wing was immediately revered for its taste and reviled for its elitism."

"Serving modern Chinese cuisine with fusion elements, the cheekily-named Ho Lee Fook is helmed by award-winning chef Jowett Yu."

"A champion of authentic Vietnamese cooking, chef Bao La’s Le Garcon Saigon is a grill house with a twist."

"Soul Food is a gem of a Thai restaurant specialising in Bangkok-style street food."

"Taiwan-born chef Jowett Yu has created one heck of a Hong Kong must-visit with his modern Chinese, Elgin Street restaurant in Central, Ho Lee Fook (say it out loud, you got it)."
