“I love Tai Kwun for blending heritage with modernity seamlessly – it’s a great place to find inspiration. Magistracy Dining Room, a charming brunch spot within Tai Kwun, transports you back in time with its historical ambience. If you love art, books and are a warrior of your own life, I recommend the Taschen x ZtoryTeller “Taste Your Answer” pop-up bar inspired by tarot. Sitting with a drink while reading inspirational books and watching the cars and people outside is so peaceful. It’s running until August 18, so be sure to visit before then. The newly opened Sotheby’s Maison at Landmark is an art lover’s paradise showcasing myriad breathtaking artworks and treasures. From exquisite jewellery, handbags and watches to rare finds like dinosaur fossils and classical paintings, this space caters to collectors and adventurers alike. Instant purchases make it a haven for art enthusiasts seeking unique additions to their collections. May these art experiences in Hong Kong illuminate your summer days with inspiration and cultural richness!”

“I’m on a diet these days so I don’t really eat out a lot, but Jeonpo Meat Shop for K-BBQ is my recent go-to restaurant when I have dinner with friends – it’s perfect for larger groups. I’m also looking forward to trying this new restaurant called Dionysus & Loong in Tai Hang. I found it on YouTube and it’s a Hong Kong-style izakaya. As for drinks, Bar Leone has been a recent favourite. I love the atmosphere and their bites are really, really good, which is rare to find in a bar! I would also love to check out this speakeasy called The Holywell’s. A lot of friends have been posting about it and it looks really nice and cosy.”

“For August, I’m looking forward most to Hikaru Utada’s concert, where I’ll be able to finally sing along to ‘First Love’. I also want to check out Miroku, Beijing-based artist Huang Yulong’s first solo show with Ora-Ora. Last but not least, I’ve been enjoying Argo Gin, made in collaboration with Never Never Distilling Co. I love it!”
