This month, Japanese and Italian flavours take over Hong Kong’s gastronomic calendar.

In celebration of Censu Hong Kong’s third anniversary, the Gough Street restaurant will be teaming up with the famed DEN Tokyo and chef Zaiyu Hasegawa to create an exclusive one-night-only menu on September 5 for our city’s gastronomes. The evening is themed around the Japanese idea of “yakusoku“, which translates to “promises,” as it was chef Shun Sato’s promise to bring success to his restaurant in Hong Kong. The eight-course menu will go for $3,388 and feature dishes such as zucchini flower tempura with bacon three cheese mousse and port wine truffle purée, Mayura wagyu with Arima Sansho soy and Japanese mushrooms, and paella with himono fish, scallop chicken rice and negi ginger sauce. For an extra $688, you’ll also get to enjoy a sake pairing that’ll let you try a yet-to-be-released SOMATO sake, created collaboratively with AMBUSH.

On September 12 and 13, Sushi Zinc and chef Zinc Leung will be joining Cafe Bau and chef Kasey Chan for a two-night special menu spotlighting Hong Kong’s locally sourced ingredients with a touch of Japanese culinary finesse. Named “Field to Fork, Sea to Table,” the collaboration will see an eight-course menu priced at $1,588 feature dishes from star-snapper sashimi with crisp fish skin and local soy sauce, and cobia clay pot rice with Yi-O rice, XO sauce, cobia liver, shaved dried abalone and dried scallop to Kuruma shrimp mille feuille with shrimp roe aioli, an oxen tartare accompanied by oyster sabayon and noodlefish cracker, and Sushi Zinc’s signature tamagoyaki, this time with a twist involving corned beef ice cream instead of the classic vanilla butter and maple syrup.

Italian Galore at Falcone and Bar Leone

On September 11 from 4 pm until late, Bar Leone and Lorenzo Antinori will be welcoming chef Josh Stumbaugh and Falcone to bring together the best of Italy’s gAstronomy and mixology.
