These are our favourite places to dine and wash it all down with a tipple or two
There's more to a meal than just good food. Location, ambience, service and even interior design can affect how much you enjoy a dining experience—and that's before any liquid accompaniments come into play. As for the libation that you choose to sip before, during or after your meal, this is (for some at least) the alcoholic icing on the cake. While some prefer wine pairings on the dinner table, others are choosing cocktails over chardonnay. With that in mind, we've pulled together some of our top places to dine and enjoy a cocktail in Hong Kong.
For those that do gush over the most inventive concoctions behind the bar, don't forget to stop by at Tatler Dining's Hong Kong Cocktail Festival (30 June–3 July 2022) and join us for some great food, fun workshops and, of course, some seriously good cocktails. Purchase your tickets here, and stay tuned for more updates by following Tatler Dining on Facebook and Instagram.
1. LPM
Offering classic French Mediterranean dishes for sustenance, LPM's drink menu features a more whimsical list of cocktails including some that pay tribute to the life of influential French poet and artist Jean Cocteau to enjoy at the bar or with your meal. Named after the room that Cocteau regularly stayed in at Hotel Welcome—where he hosted parties for the likes of Charlie Chaplin and Coco Chanel—Room 22 is a cocktail made for sharing and features a flowing absinthe fountain.
