國安法已實施，白色恐怖瀰漫，但在這環境下，人更應保持樂觀韜光養晦。這次來到中環的 Burger Circus ，或者可以令人忘卻在香港的煩惱，因為真的好似回到美國一樣！

The restaurant combines good service, delicious dishes, striking decor and, to top it all, music from the 1960s.

Crown Super Deluxe is out to give you a dining experience to remember. From the unique restaurant setup, to the culinary showmanship and table-side entertainment, it really is unlike any other dining experience in Hong Kong.

位處中環的Crown Super Deluxe，是家廚師發辦的鐵板燒專門店，每晚只供應精挑頂尖食材及肥美海產的三款餐單，各款席前料理都盡顯師傅心思及功架。

Maison Libanaise has the perfect adult beverage to welcome back the full-on HK summer heat. The Frosé renaissance, back for a fourth summer.

呢間名為Hotal Colombo嘅小店，外牆特別地以粉紅色牆雜貨店形式製成，外表完全唔似一間餐廳。但吸晴嘅大門亦成為唔少文青嘅搶手打卡位！

A delicious, high-end teppanyaki experience in an opulent yet funky setting. Impeccable service, as expected from all our previous Black Sheep restaurant experiences.

This is the bone, or its 10th cousin once removed, that New Punjab Club turns into the best tandoori lamb you’ve ever eaten. This by itself warrants New Punjab Club’s one Michelin star.

The trattoria, which evokes the soulful osterias and small restaurants all over one of Italy’s most beloved regions, elevates the concept of cucina povera or cuisine of the poor.

Hong Kong diners are now able to channel some of Florence's unique attractions at Associazione Chianti, a Tuscan trattoria that combines butchery and top-notch wine.

Rajasthan Rifles is Black Sheep Restaurants’ first Anglo-Indian restaurant. The menu and the decor are inspired accordingly, and the result is unlike anything else seen in Hong Kong.

意大利佛羅倫斯風光綺麗，物產豐饒，不知當地美食是甚麼風味？米珠蓮最近拜訪灣仔的意菜小館Associazione Chianti，終於可一嚐當中的滋味。

Maison Libanaise’s Feast de Noël menu has everything you need for a comforting Christmas meal along with a few uniquely Lebanese flavours and additions. Served sharing style, this feast is best enjoyed with family and friends.

Black Sheep Restaurants has been on a hot streak this year. And with its latest opening, Associazione Chianti, throwing open its Wan Chai doors next week, the brand will likely have another winner on its hands.

At Associazione Chianti, the simple, honest ingredients are indeed the focus, and Executive Chef Josh Stumbaugh strives to capture the essence of Tuscany’s cucina povera using the finest local, seasonal ingredients to create dishes that are packed full of soulful flavour.

If you’re looking for a great Japanese restaurant for some late-night “snacks”, Fukuro is an izakaya-style restaurant – opened in SoHo by Black Sheep Restaurants – that serves light Japanese dishes paired with refreshing cocktails.

Chôm Chôm is a stalwart of Hong Kong’s unpredictable dining scene and manages to ensure consistent quality of food and reliable, friendly service throughout the sheer volume of customers.

Much like all Black Sheep restaurants, Associazione Chianti hits the authenticity nail on the head, delivering a concise menu of Tuscan-inspired favourites.

A glass of Chianti, a steak and good company spell pleasure in a way that’s most fundamental to Florentine food culture — a tradition that Associazione Chianti captures here with authenticity and soul.

Since opening in 2013, Chôm Chôm seems to have been perpetually busy, with diners spilling out onto the steps outside the restaurant, sipping on their curbside beers in true Hanoi-style.

Rajasthan Rifles excels as an all-rounded establishment with consistent execution for its casual-fine dining offerings.

From samosas to butter chicken to keema pau, everything on the menu was tempting and none of the dishes disappointed.

“The New Punjab Club is an artful, immersive, transporting, cinematic experience in the guise of a newfangled tandoor grillhouse.”

“There’s one thing to be said about Black Sheep Restaurants – they don’t seem to shy away from experimenting with super-niche cuisines. And the Anglo-Indian cuisine on offer at one of their latest restaurants, Rajasthan Rifles, is as niche as it gets.”

While the interior of the restaurant proper has mucho macho accents, its kitchen space is decidedly more feminine, a clear sign that Angie Ford, its Canadian head chef, is intent on making her mark in this relatively chap-dominated field.

Many say that ambience is just as important as the actual food at a restaurant, and we think that Rajasthan Rifles gets perfect scores in both respects. The expert storytelling that has spun a colonial background into the eatery’s nostalgic menu makes for an unforgettable dining experience.

"What Taqueria Super Macho does is offer up something a little different in our restaurant-saturated city. The well-researched, laid-back vibe is perfect for any day of the week, its flavours are big and its prices are right."

Hong Kong’s superstar restaurant group has swept in for a heroic effort at giving the city the taqueria it deserves — “one for the fans,” according to Black Sheep Restaurants co-founder Christopher Mark.

"I cannot remember when my friends and I ate with such joyful abandon as at our recent meal at Hotal Colombo."

The 11th edition of the gastro guide was revealed this afternoon at an event honouring the biggest talents in the restaurant industry. New one-star additions include French restaurant Belon, as well as New Punjab Club, the first Pakistani restaurant to win a star in Hong Kong.

"Make sure you come hungry because you will want to try as much as possible from the menu. We left vowing we’d be back and we mean it!"

"The Greek concept is a first for the local restaurant group. The new 50-seat restaurant is separated into two adjacent shop fronts, each representing the legendary Greek god and goddess. Designed by Sean Dix, the interiors pay tribute to a traditional Greek taverna with domed ceilings over the dining room equipped with an open courtyard at the back for al fresco options."

"The atmosphere at Canton Disco is every bit as energetic and opulent as the surrounding EDITION hotel. This restaurant pays tribute to the infamous Kowloon discotheque of the same name — Hong Kong’s quasi-answer to Studio 54 — with an uproarious 80s soundtrack and setting reminiscent of a banqueting hall hopped up on acid. But whereas the atmosphere is wonderfully ridiculous, Canton Disco’s cuisine — traditional Cantonese fare executed using premium produce — is precise and sophisticated."

"Go-to Neapolitan pizzeria, Motorino, is already a popular spot for families, but now there’s another reason for little diners to head there, as the Wan Chai branch is now offering children’s pizza parties where mini-chefs can create their own masterpiece using the restaurant’s wide variety of traditional Italian toppings."

Featuring BELON, ho lee fook, La Vache!, New Punjab Club and Le Petit Saigon.

Featuring New Punjab Club and Motorino.
"This post-Colonial inspired Punjabi restaurant serves up street food favourites elevated with premium ingredients and refined plating in a jovial and lively atmosphere."
"Motorino is famous in particular for their tasty Brussels Sprout pizza. Before your turn your nose up, it might sound like a weird combination – and usually the best pizzas are – but believe us when we say it’s truly delicious."

"Burger Circus brings in crowds for its juicy burgers, cute vintage aesthetic, and of course, its shakes. With its diner-style vibe, shakes at Burger Circus are served in a tall glass with a cherry on top, so it serves Hong Kong well for an Instagrammable photo-op."

本港餐飲集團Black Sheep Restaurants由Syed Asim Hussain和Christopher Mark創辦，Asim是居港巴基斯坦籍港人，他和拍檔連續兩年被評為「年度最佳餐廳老闆」，對員工關懷備至，設應急基金和提供免息貸款、與員工一齊划龍舟，留住一班好員工，更在7年間開設18間多國菜餐廳，大多選址在地段昂貴的港島區，以不同國家的特色菜做招徠。

"An Argentinian steakhouse styled as an Edwardian Era ‘elite members-only’ club, Buenos Aires Polo Club is a cosy yet elegant venue to tuck into some juicy steaks."

"Warm and inviting, La Vache’s Parisian bistro-inspired décor, seen in its red leather seats and colourful wall murals depicting the Seine and a French opera theatre, makes it ideal for romantic meals."

"The famed New York pizza chain's first outing in Hong Kong has proven to be a successful one, serving up a stripped back menu of classic pizzas (along with a couple of delicious oddities). If you're getting bored of your margherita, opt for Motorino’s prosciutto di parma pie as the saltiness of the ham balances out the scorched crust flavours and adds an extra layer to the dish."

"Expect a more formal experience at Buenos Aires Polo Club compared to the rest of the establishments on this list, with proper and somewhat ceremonious service. The heavy morcilla is an Argentinian specialty you might want to try here, or the unctuous grilled bone marrow with oxtail-Malbec jam. If you’re not hot on the meat, go for the fully loaded baked sweet potato with sour cream and Manchego cheese."

"It is always exciting to see what Black Sheep Restaurants are going to do next. And they do not disappoint with Fukuro, their 18th eatery in Hong Kong. This modern izakaya, which is next door to Ho Lee Fook, is the group’s first Japanese venue."

HYPEBEAST: 全新日系型格居酒屋 Fukuro 進駐中環
門面以和風木製門面加上暗黑的設計，門口只有「Fukuro Izakaya」字樣的鐵牌，以及一盞有貓頭鷹圖案的圓燈，而店名「Fukuro」就是貓頭鷹的意思。店內昏暗的氣氛加上以非常日系的木質雅致裝潢，讓人有如置身在日本的感覺。同時為了迎合一眾夜貓子，Fukuro 沒有設關門時間，好讓大家能夠吃得盡慶！

"Despite being better known for its restaurant, the bar at Buenos Aires Polo Club deserves its share of the spotlight. A classy place to sip a well-made drink, there’s a particularly good range of fernet cocktails on offer as well some surprisingly good non-alcoholic ‘teetotallers’. Thursday night’s Buenos Aires Rock Club event is also not to be missed."

"With high-quality food and drinks and well-managed concept, Fukuro has proven an early success in the neighbourhood. As one of Black Sheep’s strongest openings to date, it has the potential to be the hottest destination on this side of Elgin Street since Ho Lee Fook."

"The unexpected winning main course of tuna maremma was beautifully cooked while also fatty and soft, with other notable dishes including the raw red prawns and fried baby squid."

"My meal at Le Garçon Saigon was so fresh and green, it was easy to convince myself that I was having an assortment of salads for dinner. I love how Chef La pushes the boundaries of exotic Vietnamese flavours on his never-ending quest to innovate and make Vietnamese food interesting."

The Fiasco at Carbone is the uncivilised booze-fest, with a story, dancing and far too much Italian-American goodness.

Osteria Marzia is certainly a welcome addition to Wan Chai’s eclectic culinary mix, and its small but carefully curated menu is testament to the focus and mastery behind each dish. There are no showy or unnecessary bells and whistles here – just elevated and excellent versions of classic dishes, where quality ingredients take centre stage.

A Hong Kong-born Punjabi, Hussain has revealed NPC to be his biggest passion project yet: It's inspired by The Punjab Club, the private social and athletic club in Lahore where Hussain spent his childhood; as well as a nod to Hussain's father, a restaurateur who operated The Mughal Room in Hong Kong in the '80s. This emotional attachment may have been the catalyst for aiming to set the bar even higher with this latest opening: Without question, New Punjab Club is one of Black Sheep's most thoughtfully curated venues to date.

"Were it not for the super neat settings, Osteria Marzia could easily pass for a family-run space, where the owner knows you by name, the waiter is quick to pour your favourite wine and the chef remembers what you like from the menu."

In Hong Kong, it can get pretty tricky to separate the Indian and Pakistani restaurants that will actually satisfy your cravings from the otherwise average offerings you happen to come across on the street. Say hello to Black Sheep Restaurants’ newly-opened New Punjab Club, which is looking to introduce the boisterous spirit of Punjab to Hong Kong with a refined flair. So what exactly is Punjabi cuisine?

"With equal parts swagger and glorious campiness, New Punjab Club is a confident rendition of a modern day grill house by way of the post-colonial subcontinent - and so much more."

"Hong Kong has no shortage of Italian restaurants, but Osteria Marzia stands out from the crowd with its coastal cuisine, eye-catching design, and chilled-out vacation vibes."

"Thai ingredients creatively used in intriguing cocktails in this lively, packed and noisy space that brings a taste of Bangkok to the streets of SoHo."

"An intimate space above a restaurant, with comfortable seats, expert bartending and wine nights where you can taste rare vintages by the glass, Upstairs by Belon exudes class."

“Calvert has been tasked with cooking whatever he wishes to as long as it is “inherently excellent”. The result is a delectable marriage of premium fresh produce and French-inspired flavours, albeit with a more modern and unique interpretation.”

“Behind Maison Libanaise’s versatile menu is Head Chef James Harrison, former star apprentice of Michelin-starred Chef Greg Malouf, the 'Godfather of Lebanese cuisine’.”

"Service at Soul Food Hong Kong is impeccable. From the moment you walk in the staff are all smiles."

"I had a great dinner at Soul Food Hong Kong and think it would be the ideal spot for a catch up with the girls. It’s in a great location, the vibe is laid-back, and the dishes are best for sharing."

"The halved yellow chicken is beautifully grilled until crispy on the outside and juicy within, particularly great wrapped in rice paper with fresh herbs and pickled daikon and carrots."

"As one of the few Argentinian steakhouses in town, Buenos Aires Polo Club sets itself apart with not only grass-fed beef from the Argentine pampas, but also an array of nicely-executed dishes to impress."

"We start with home-made country-style bread with butter, which we could not stop eating. It is how bread should be made, warm and soft in the middle and hard and crusty on the outside."
