Lead the Whey
Nespresso Gourmet Weeks is back for another year, with the instant coffee giant lining up three chef collaborations taking place over the course of this summer at Artisan Lounge in K11 Musea. This year comes with special significance as Nespresso is launching its Vertuo Next brewing system in Hong Kong, which offers a more diverse range of proprietary capsules—each with their own unique barcode so that the machine can customise its brewing temperature, flow, and amount of water for the optimum results every time.
Heading the campaign is Barry Quek of Whey, who has designed four a-la-carte dishes to pair with Nespresso's Vertuo coffee blends. Highlights include the chicken liver parfait with mulberry gel and Nespresso Hazelino Muffin-infused brioche; and Nespresso Peru Organic-infused pork rib with jicama and black garlic. Available until June 19, Quek's stint will be followed by The Chairman's Danny Yip between 20 June and 3 July; and finally, Maxime Gilbert of Écriture between 4 July and 18 July.
