Hong Kong’s premier food hall destination, BaseHall 01 & 02, continues to refresh its culinary offerings with the arrival of three new exciting concepts. From Cantonese dim sum and Sichuan-influenced comfort dishes to Japanese onigiri and a modern take on Hong Kong’s two-dish rice, the newly opened dining spots at Central's Jardine House add new layers to the already bustling food hall from this month onwards.

Now open at BaseHall 02, San Xi Lou (三希樓) brings a more casual extension of the established Hong Kong restaurant, which has been known since 2008 for its Sichuan cuisine and premium hot pot.

The BaseHall menu focuses on approachable dim sum, rice, and noodle dishes, including Crystal Shrimp Dumplings, Siu Mai, and Chicken Soup Xiao Long Bao (all priced at HK$22), as well as heartier plates such as Steamed Pork Ribs with Black Bean Sauce (HK$40) and Scallop Sticky Rice in Lotus Leaf (HK$38).

Rice and noodle staples include Steamed Rice with Salted Egg Pork Patty, Sichuan Dan Dan Noodles, and Chongqing-style Hot and Sour Noodles (all priced at HK$68), while the Signature Mala Saliva Chicken Rice (HK$138) offers a bolder and spice-forward option.

For set meals, diners can combine selected dim sum, noodles or rice, and a drink for a complete, everyday lunch from HK$88.

The onigiri range spans premium fillings such as A4 Wagyu Sukiyaki (HK$49), alongside everyday favorites (starts from HK$32) like Mentaiko Salad, Minced Chicken with Soy-cured Egg Yolk, and vegetarian options including Kinpira Maitake Mushrooms and Grilled Corn with Miso Pine Nut Butter.

TEMAI also offers maki rolls (from HK$40), customizable Create Your Own Bento sets (from HK$82), signature Tamagoyaki (HK$40), nourishing daily soups, and more for the on-the-go crowd.

The rotating weekly menu combines vegetables and mains such as Okra with Yuzu Vinaigrette, Honey Wasabi Chicken Thigh with Crispy Potatoes, and Slow-cooked Beef Cheek in Coconut Curry, with set lunch options ranging from the Lite Set (HK$58) to the Premium Set (HK$82), all customizable with different rice or noodle bases.

7-Eleven is pushing far beyond its store aisle with a bold new creative collaboration that fuses streetwear, scent, and Hong Kong nostalgia into one highly collectible drop. Teaming up with local fashion label GrowthRing & Supply (GRS) and fragrance brand BeCandle, the 7-Eleven x GRS x BeCandle collection reimagines everyday convenience into a distinctly local culture statement.

Drawing from iconic 7-Eleven Hong Kong store details and GRS creative director Kenji Wong’s "Kowloon" motif, the collection leans heavily into 1980s workwear culture. The lineup spans apparel, caps, and accessories with a lived-in, vintage feel, alongside wearable and home fragrance pieces blended locally by BeCandle.

Anchoring the drop is the Patched Work Jacket (HK$1,980), inspired by the third-generation 7-Eleven staff uniform and finished in deep red with a washed texture, exclusive commemorative embroidery, and a back print referencing a promotional slogan from 7-Eleven Hong Kong’s first store opening in 1981.

The Patched Work Shirt (HK$1,780) follows in classic green, embroidered with milestone patches celebrating 45 years of local presence, balancing heritage and wearability.

As for the accessories, the Kowloon Mini Cap Pouch (HK$380) updates GRS’s cult-favorite design with 7-Eleven’s signature orange, green, and red, while the Kowloon Cap (HK$680) comes in Vintage White and Vintage Red, finished with deliberate distressing for a true retro look.

The apparel lineup is rounded out by the Washed Tee (HK$780), which channels the spirit of 1980s advertising tees through anniversary graphics and a clean, unfussy silhouette.
