HK Michelin Starred Restaurants

Food is always best enjoyed with good company, shared plates passed around the table, stories traded between bites, and moments that linger long after the last course.

In Hong Kong, where dining is as much about togetherness as it is about taste, several Michelin-starred restaurants rise to the occasion for group gatherings. Whether it’s menus designed for sharing, elegant private rooms for special occasions, or spacious layouts that comfortably welcome larger parties, these dining spots prove that world-class dining doesn’t have to be a solo affair.

Arca's Chic Sunday Brunch Offers Unlimited Tea and Vinyl Sessions

Arca Society is hosting its Tea & Vinyl Sessions on Aug. 2, 2026, a two-hour Sunday afternoon experience pairing unlimited artisanal tea with a live vinyl set.

The event runs from 3 to 5 PM, and costs HK$168 per person, plus service charge. Guests get two hours of unlimited tea tasting curated by CHACHABANG Tea, a Hong Kong-based tea curator with Taiwanese roots and her own tea farm, and a vinyl set spun by DJ Crystal S. Availability is limited, so early reservations are encouraged.

There are two available add-ons to sweeten the deal: a Petite Four afternoon tea set for an extra $78, and 20% off anything ordered from the à la carte menu or all-day sets.

The tea program is split across a hot station and a cold station. At the hot station, Ruby is a modern red oolong that boasts floral and fruity notes, and a hint of sweet potato. Wisdom, on the other hand, runs classic: a roasted oolong heavy on caramel and nuts with a delicate "fire" finish. Both are served gongfu-style in 200 ml teapots with small tasting cups.

The cold station, however, is a true flex. The Artisan Jin Xuan Cold Brew is silky and sweet with milky, floral notes, poured into white wine glasses. The Sparkling Oolong "Champagne" — a custom, non-alcoholic sparkling built on the Jin Xuan base.

Paired with DJ Crystal's vinyl set moving through hip-hop, R&B, and disco, it's a subtly uplifting afternoon that asks you to take your time. No rush, just nostalgic grooves and tea.

For more information, visit their website and follow Arca Hotel on Instagram.

New Store Alert! Sugar Daddy Set to Sweeten Up Wan Chai This August

Sugar Daddy 1Photo by Sugar Daddy

Calling all pastry lovers and gelato addicts! There’s a sweet new opening to look forward to this summer.

Award-winning pastry chef Fabio Bardi is bringing Sugar Daddy, a playful new Italian pastry, gelato, and café concept, to Wan Chai this August. Located at the ground floor of Fu Tung Building along Queen’s Road East, the upcoming go-to neighborhood spot promises a fun and modern take on classic Italian treats, from Chef Fabio’s signature maritozzi to bite-sized piccola pasticceria, buttery cornetti, fresh gelato, and premium Italian coffee.

What makes Sugar Daddy even more tempting is its focus on “balanced indulgence.” Expect desserts made with lower-sugar recipes, natural ingredients, and no artificial additives, alongside vegan, sugar-free, and dairy-free options so more people can get in on the fun.

For Chef Bardi, whose résumé includes the three-MICHELIN-starred 8½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana, one-MICHELIN-starred ESTRO, and Dang Wen Li by Dominique Ansel, the concept is deeply personal.

Sugar Daddy is my love letter to Italian pastry culture, but with Hong Kong energy,” he said. “I wanted to create something that feels luxurious but not serious, indulgent but not heavy, and deeply rooted in Italian craftsmanship while still being playful, modern and a little bit cheeky.”

Designed for everything from morning espresso runs to afternoon gelato breaks and pastry-filled catchups, Sugar Daddy is shaping up to be one of the neighborhood's most exciting foodie openings this season.

More details on the official launch date and opening celebrations will be revealed in the coming weeks, so follow Sugar Daddy on Instagram and Chef Bardi on Instagram.

Soft Thunder Launches New Limited-Time Double-Black Sesame Tart

Soft Thunder Launches New Limited time Double Black Sesame Tart 1Photo by Instagram/ Soft Thunder Bakery and Coffee

Just when we thought Soft Thunder Bakery and Coffee couldn’t make their pastry lineup any more tempting, they've dropped a brand-new flavor that'll have black sesame lovers running to their nearest branch. Meet the Double-Black Sesame Tart, a limited-time creation featuring bold sesame flavors layered inside a charcoal shell.

Released on July 10, 2026, the bakery’s newest flavor is packing not one but two layers of the nutty ingredient into a single pastry. The tart features a silky black sesame light crème layered over a rich black sesame egg custard, all housed inside a charcoal crispy shell that gives it a signature dark appearance. Described by the bakery as a “double-layer” black sesame bomb, it’s designed to deliver an intense sesame experience with every bite.

The launch marks a temporary farewell to a fan favorite, the Coffee Mochi Tart, which will be taking a short break while the new flavor is in the spotlight. Fans can breathe easy, though, as the bakery has confirmed that their popular coffee tart will be making its return in the future.

Since opening its first brick-and-mortar bakery in Kennedy Town in 2021 and new flagship in Wan Chai in 2023, Soft Thunder Bakery and Coffee has built a loyal following for its mouthwatering pastries, particularly its egg tarts and innovative seasonal specials.

Wakaran and Poppy Return for Chapter II of Collab Dinner

Wakaran mainPhoto by Courtesy of Epicurean Group

Wakaran and Poppy are back at the same table!

The two contemporary Hong Kong restaurants will reunite for "The Next Course — Chapter II," a two-part dining collaboration priced at HK$888 per person.

Two exclusive evenings are scheduled: July 14 at Poppy in Wan Chai, and July 28 at Wakaran. Each night brings its own specially curated, six-plate tasting menu paired with three bartender beverages — meaning two distinct experiences.

Seats are limited at both sittings.

The evening is designed as a full progression, beginning with a sparkling Korean makgeolli before pivoting to what organizers describe as a playful centerpiece: a cocktail called "Sangria for Him & For Her." Rather than sharing one drink, each guest at the table receives a different interpretation, both built on premium sake, vermouth, fresh fruit, and house-made ingredients. Designed to be sipped, compared, and swapped across the table.

The six-plate menu that follows highlights the strengths of each restaurant. Early courses include rich Mushroom or Curry Crab Croquettes alongside the signature D.P.D. "Stir Fried King" Squid, and Italian Beef Tenderloin Tartare with foie gras and Ibérico. Larger plates lean into premium ingredients: Abalone Paella and Dry-Aged Ma Yau Paella sit alongside dry-aged pigeon. Bold flavors, carefully and expertly handled from the culinary lens of each kitchen.

The finale arrives in two parts: a Pandan Tiramisu infused with Green Tea Rum, followed by an Old Fashioned Affogato built on Japanese MARS Whisky, hazelnut and peanut butter gelato. An unexpected and indulgent capper to an already extraordinary menu.

In 2025, the two restaurants partnered for a debut collaboration. It was a two-night event led by three chefs: Chef Tommy Tsui of Wakaran, Chef Ronald Nelson of Poppy, and Pastry Specialist Chef Pathon Ngai. Following an overwhelmingly positive response, Chapter II was born.

Reservations are open now through this link.

Turns out food waste isn't just headed for the landfill anymore as Hong Kong's food waste recycling efforts are showing significant progress, with the city recycling an average of 350 tons of food waste daily in 2025. Domestic food waste recycling has seen especially strong growth, rising from about two tons per day in 2022 to over 120 tons daily in 2025.

A key driver behind the increase is the Pilot Scheme on Food Waste Smart Recycling Bins in Private Housing Estates, launched in 2023 by the Environmental Protection Department (EPD) and the Environmental Campaign Committee (ECC). As of February, 453 smart recycling bins have already been installed across 115 private housing estates, serving more than 270,000 households. With this, participating estates have collectively recycled over 7,300 tons of food waste.

The smart recycling bins accept various types of food waste, including hard food waste, and feature odor control, pest prevention, and overflow management systems. Residents can also earn GREEN$ points through the connected incentive program, which are redeemable for daily necessities and supermarket vouchers.

To expand participation, the Government lowered the scheme's eligibility requirement in 2025, allowing smaller housing estates to join. The EPD also introduced a Food Waste Recycling Truck trial at the end of 2025, visiting different locations nightly to further promote food waste recycling across the city.

Together, these initiatives show how Hong Kong is making food waste recycling more accessible and rewarding, encouraging more residents to turn everyday food scraps into a valuable environmental resource. For more details, visit the EPD and ECC's website.

Corks Wine & Bar is hosting "Beached & Buzzed," the July edition of its Discovino series on July 4, from 4 PM till late at its Causeway Bay spot. Entry is free; guests can register through the link in Corks' Instagram bio.

The event pairs a live DJ set by P.Grant with an extended happy hour. With Hong Kong's turbulent summer weather and heat running at its peak, Corks is offering an indoor beach-party experience without the actual sand.

Corks' invitation is simple: "Hong Kong's melting, so we're throwing a beach party indoors." They promise "breezy beach vibes, ice-cold wine, and a DJ spinning all night long." All you need to bring are your shades and the energy to dance!

Discovino is Corks' monthly recurring event centered on music, sips, and dancing. Last June, their Discovino event was themed: Orange Summer. They debuted an orange wine, and guests were encouraged to don the bright color.

Register for the upcoming Fourth of July Discovino event through this link.

Stay tuned to their upcoming Discovino events and other updates by following Corks on Instagram.
