Roganic’s @roganichongkong seasonal menu honors local produce and sustainability 🥦🥬🍆💚♻️In this concrete jungle, you’ll be surprised there are quality farms and apiary around, such as @zenorganicfarm.official @yiofarm . What Roganic can’t find in this little city, they source it from farms within 160km of the restaurant to limit carbon footprint. To reduce food waste, they creatively use every part of produce in multiple dishes! For example the wagyu 🐮, they use it in the tartare in amuse bouche, make broth for the chawanmushi and wagyu fat caramel in petit four; for the corn 🌽, chawanmushi and delicious mocktail in the soft pairing. The rest they pass it to food waste collection organization @ecpalhk . The effort and thought that are put behind the menu go way beyond the flavor and presentation but researching what’s available around and using every scrap to the fullest 💚🔥 The highlight for me was definitely the Steamed Custard. The creativity and imagination of this course! The unlikely medley of tendon, mushroom XO, lardo, corn, was beautifully orchestrated to give multitude of flavors and textures. Not only it fed my senses but the element of surprise added many brownie points to this dish 💚 Part 2 coming up (maybe🤪) Full Tasting Menu *seaweed tartlet, dry aged wagyu, charred onion *rice cracker, smoked cod roe, herb snow *birch sap glazed truffle pudding, berkswell *sea urchin custard with royal caviar  *pineapple tomato with blue mussel and roganic offerings *soda bread with brown cultured english butter  *steamed custard, tendon, legumes, kohlrabi *hokkaido scallop, zen farm pumpkin, whey *butter poached grouper, Mr Lins asparagus and wild garlic with daurenki imperial caviar *three yellow chicken with fermented turnip, lovage and mustard green *perilla ice cream, cucumber and sorrel *hk figs, fragrant leaf cream, ragstone *whipped hazelnut praline, roasted chicory root and molasses Roganic Hong Kong 📍Shop 8, UG/F, Sino Plaza, 255 Gloucester Road, Causeway Bay #grumpymuncher #hkfood #hkig #michelinstar #michelingreenstar #michelinguide #farmtotable #hkfoodie #hkfoodblogger #銅鑼灣美食 #香港美食 #米芝蓮 @theforksandspoons852

Drinks and snacks are back in Fineprint @fineprint.hk (all outlets) after a year of hiatus 🔥 Completely new wine/cocktail 🍷🍸and snacks 🥙🍖 menu available. Wide selection of wine (mostly new world) is available by the glass and by the bottle. Did I mention they are very reasonably priced (starting from $50/glass)? We were not hungry hippos so we only ordered a few bites. I particularly enjoyed the grilled zucchini and chorizo 🤤 Pleasantly surprised by how good the Lemon Ricotta Cannoli 🍋was! Tangy, creamy, crispy all in one bite! Devour everything with their famous sourdough, guys, it’ll be a good night! 🤩 Thank you for the amazing night besides caffeinating me during the day ☕️😘 Fineprint - Central: G/F, 38 Peel Street, Soho, Central - Sai Ying Pun: G/F, 14 Second Street, Western District - Tai Hang: G/F, 1 Lily Street, Tai Hang #grumpymuncher #hkfood #hkig #foodiehk #hkwine #hkcocktail #winebar #hkbar #f52grams #igfood #hkwinelovers #winelover #hkdessert #tophongkongrestaurants #hkeats #hkdrinks #hkfoodie #hkfoodblogger #topcitybiteshk #discoverhongkong #hkrestaurant #foodstagram #hongkongrestaurants #吃貨 #相機食先 #hkfoodpic #lifestylehk #hkdining #中環美食 #香港美食 @scottiecallaghan @betstar

If you love food and love to hear the story behind each dish, you NEED to get yourself a reservation for the curry focused lunch (first and last Friday each month) at CHAAT @chaathongkong that is both educational and interactive 🔥 This month’s main ingredient is lamb 🐑(changes every month)! Our meal started with their signature appetizer Raj Kachori and Baked Jackfruit Samosa. Then Chef Manav @chef_manav_tuli took us on this culinary trip from the north in Kashmir with the Rogan Josh, then we moved to the northeast in Bihar with the Champaran. Next stop was Bengal and has a delightful Kosha that was so very rich with ginger, garlic and cumin. But I have to say my favorite was the Sali Boti that had crispy golden potato shreds 🥔 on it and served with mint chutney 🤤 Each curry also comes with rice and different types of naan and roti. Carbs heaven 😍 The menu also pairs with a welcome drink and 2 glasses of wine 🍷. Go hungry, guys. Go very hungry. Scroll ➡️ to the last photo to see how well thought this meal was!!! . .

Looking for a great and casual Singaporean/Malaysian 🇸🇬🇲🇾restaurant on Hong Kong Island? LOOK NO FURTHER! Bibi & Baba @bibibabahkg and their new chef will satisfy your cravings! Every dishes I had that night from appetizer to dessert was fantastic 🔥 New on the menu is this beautiful Hainan Chicken Rice 🐥🍚 The chicken was tender and juicy; the chicken oil rice perfectly fragrant😍. $280 for the whole Hong Kong Three Yellow Chicken, such a good deal. Nyonya Laksa 🍜was spot on with a rich coconuty broth. Add a bit of sambal, you’re in for a treat 🤤Thank me later! Beef Rendang🐮, a staple dry curry dish, was made with beef shin. You will want to eat it with rice. Curry fish head curry 🐟 was another dish that I wanted to try most and it did not disappoint. It’s big, so make sure you share! #sizematters JIA @jiagroup is currently doing a promotion throughout July. Go on Monday or Tuesday and you get 30% off!!!! 🤑 *They take reservations for 6pax or above. . . . 📍Bibi & Baba G/F, Pao Yip Building, 1-7 Ship Street, Wan Chai . . . . . . . . . . . . . #grumpymuncher #hkfood #hkig #foodiehk #tophongkongrestaurants #hkeats #igfood #hkfoodie #hkfoodblogger #singaporeanfood @top_hongkong_restaurants #hongkongfood #topcitybiteshk #topcitybites #foodlover #discoverhongkong #hkrestaurant #jiagroup #foodstagram #wanchai #foodphotograhy #girlwhoeats #吃貨 #相機食先 #hkfoodpic #lifestylehk #hkdining #hkfoodblog #灣仔美食 #香港美食

Proper food porn right here 🧀🧀🧀💦💦💦 And when all the focus is on how sexy the truffle mozzarella cheese pull and the deep-fried batter are, you don’t want to discount the mashed green peas with truffles.

The elegance and exquisiteness of Date by Tate @date_hongkong , paired with the meticulousness and deftness of Koffee Mameya @omotesando.koffee created a unique synergy of refined coffee and pastry pairing experience this June in Hong Kong. Enjoy a trio of light to dark blend of java that are paired with three exclusive “Kube” pastries of a blend of sweet and savory flavor that are influenced by East and West spices and flavors. 🍰 Kube Honey Chestnut Cake x ☕️ Light. EI Puente Geisha. Honduras. 🍰 Kube Curry Financier x ☕️ Medium. Raspberry Candy. Ethiopia. (My favorite ❤️) 🍰 Kube Chocolate & Truffle Pound Cake x ☕️ Dark. Guariroba Natural. Brazil. Tips⭐️ Don’t forget to book through the K11 HK app before you go! It is an intimate 12-seater place tucked at the back of if you have never been! While you are there, say hi to @timmyfat who is a very knowledgeable barista and coffee sommelier ☕️ @date_hongkong @tatediningroom @omotesando.koffee @theforksandspoons852 . . . . . . #grumpymuncher #datewithmameya #coffeeaddict #hkfood #hkcake #vscohk #fov_hkcoffeemap #michelinstar #hkfoodblogger #coffeegram #k11musea #hkcafe #coffeepairing #hkcoffee #hkhanddrip #hkig #hkfoodie #hkeats #hkfoodblogger #foodstagram #hkcafe #omotesandokoffeehk #omotesandokoffee #americano #topcitybitehk #香港咖啡 #香港咖啡店 #相機食先 #尖沙嘴美食 #尖沙嘴咖啡 @geoffreywu @romain_herbreteau @chefvickylau @graf_kwok @ms_o_lifestyle_ophelia @pj.moments @yukimaryrosel
