A highly anticipated collaborative dinner event hosted by chefs Oli Marlow of Roganic and Kevin Wong of Seroja Singapore will take place at Roganic Hong Kong on March 4 and 5, 2024. This event will blend Roganic’s modern European cuisine with Wong’s expertise in crafting vibrant flavours inspired by the rich cuisine of the Malay Archipelago. Renowned for its homage to the diverse cultures of the region, Seroja promises to infuse the menu with its unique culinary perspective, exemplified by dishes such as spiced fish floss with raita and mint; hand-dive scallops with laksa leaf sauce and roti paung; and cold wheat noodle tossed with century egg emulsion and winter truffles. The menu, priced at HK$1,980 per guest, will also offer dishes from Roganic’s repertoire including fuseau artichoke and whipped ragstone with urban mushroom farm’s oyster mushroom xo, sunrise tomatoes from farmhouse productions with nasturtium and cod roe, and 14-day dry-aged duck with young yellow moon carrots sauce infused with mountain marigold vinegar, amongst other dishes.

Howard’s Gourmet, celebrated for its elegant take on Chinese cuisine, is partnering with Ankyu, a restaurant revered for its mastery of Kaiseki from Kyoto, Japan from March 14 to 16 for a Chinense-Japanse dining experience from March 14 to 16. Led by chefs Yozo Ueda from Ankyu and Howard Choy of Howard’s Gourmet, this collaboration promises to showcase their shared dedication to utilising the freshest, seasonal ingredients, which is available for lunch (March 14 to 15) and dinner (March 14 to 16) for HK$2,800. 

As Art Month in Hong Kong approaches, LPM Restaurant & Bar is gearing up to offer art enthusiasts a way to unwind after exploring the galleries and exhibitions with an art-inspired menu of refreshments and dishes. Under the creative direction of LPM’s global bar manager Tibor Krascsenics, the ‘Recipes for our Friends’ cocktail menu pays homage to the legendary French artist Jean Cocteau, infusing cocktails with his whimsical artwork and rich history. Guests can indulge in nostalgic sips like the 1889 Americano, honouring Cocteau’s birth year with French Suze liqueur and vermouth infused with pineapple, his favourite fruit. For a taste of Cocteau’s vibrant 1920s social scene, try Room 22, inspired by his stays at the famed Hotel Welcome, accompanied by live music performances by The Troubadours on March 29 and 30. Complementing the cocktails, head chef Maurizio Pace presents a menu of distinctive French-Mediterranean dishes, including king crab and tomato tart, courgette flower tempura with cherry tomato sauce and langoustine risotto with mushrooms.

Next month, Kenichi Fujimoto of Sushi Fujimoto and Eric Räty of Arbor are teaming up for the second time on March 6 (dinner only) and March 7 (lunch and dinner) for a Nordic-Japanese dining experience. At Sushi Fujimoto’s intimate nine-seat sushi counter, the menu, priced at HK$3,888 per guest, will feature top-quality ingredients for 12 exclusive dishes spotlighting fresh delights such as cherry salmon, blue lobster and salted mullet roe. Together the two restaurants hope to create a flavourful symphony that highlights the best of the season.
