Carmela is bringing the Côte d’Azur to the dinner table this October with Chez Carmela: A Night on the Riviera, the latest edition of the restaurant's monthly Dinner Series.

Taking place on Oct. 6, 2026, the French Riviera-inspired evening features a multi-course set menu priced at HK$688 per person, with special wine pours also available. The lineup leans into the coastal flavors of Southern France.

Dinner starts with a spread of hors d'oeuvres designed for sharing, including Oregano Sourdough Fougasse with Ratatouille, Fried Zucchini Flowers with red pepper and goat cheese, Artichokes à la Barigoule, and Pissaladière.

From there, guests can get a bowl of Bouillabaisse with Rouille Toast, followed by Spaghetti tossed with prawns, bottarga, garlic, and olive oil.

The main event is served family-style, with diners choosing one centerpiece for the table: either Whole Seabream with fennel and tomato or Roasted Lamb Rump with olive tapenade and eggplant. Herbed potatoes with aioli come alongside.

Dessert keeps things bright with a Lemon Meringue Tart scented with rosemary.

Wine plays its own supporting role in the evening. Bottles from Maison Mirabeau have been hand-selected by Simone to accompany the menu.

This limited-time dinner fits neatly into Carmela's broader approach to Southern Mediterranean cooking. From the team behind FRANCIS, the restaurant centers its menu on generous, flavor-forward food rooted in tradition but presented with a more contemporary touch.
