Prepare to get whisked away on a culinary and artistic adventure as the stylish urban retreat, The Mira Hong Kong,gears up for Art Month!   

From this March onwards, The Mira will be celebrating the exhibition “Picasso for Asia – A Conversation,” brought to Hong Kong by the M+ Museum and Musée National Picasso.

Drawing inspiration from Picasso’s life, his culinary preferences and artistic talent, the hotel’s acclaimed restaurant WHISK and open-air lounge bar Vibes are offering menus infused with the essence of the legendary maestro.

From Mar. 19 to July 13, 2025, every Wednesday, WHISK will present a special dinner menu influenced by Picasso’s culinary adventures, as chronicled in Picasso, Bon Vivant by Ermine Herscher. Their five-course menu is available for dinner from 6:30 PM to 10:30 PM, priced at HK$1188 for two guests, and includes a bottle of wine.

Chef Sheldon Fonseca reinterprets classic dishes beloved by Picasso and his avant-garde circle, blending flavors from the South of France and the Basque region. 

Options include the Ratatouille and Goat Cheese Pinchos on French Sablé, slow-cooked Striped Salmon with organic Egg Mimosa, and Firefly Squid with squid ink brush strokes — an homage to Picasso’s bold artistic style.

Vibes, The Mira’s vibrant lounge bar, celebrates Picasso’s artistry with three signature cocktails, each inspired by an iconic masterpiece.

Try the melancholic cocktail inspired by "The Old Guitarist"from Picasso’s Blue Period. This cocktail features toasted coconut-infused gin, agave syrup, lemon juice, red wine, and absinthe mist. Indulge in a cocktail inspired by "Still Life with Chair Caning,"Picasso’s first collage and painting in one. This creative concoction brings together whisky, homemade maple syrup, chocolate bitters, and gin.
