If you’re looking to kill two birds (occasions) in one stone, this 1-Michelin star contemporary french restaurant has customized 6-course menus for this month’s occasions while you and your loved ones enjoy an intimate meal set against the panoramic view of Victoria Harbour. Placing emphasis on Asian produce to ring in the Lunar New Year, the Fireworks menu include common Chinese dishes with a french twist such as Suckling Pig with celeriac-black truffle and Sea Bass with delicate broth, and a firecracker-shaped chocolate pine nuts dessert. For the lovebirds, a romantic set for two includes Steamed Duck Foie Gras with Pumpkin-Chestnut and Blue Lobster with Monalisa Potato Gnocchi, and heart-shaped Chocolate-Raspberry desserts to end off the night.

當你認為狂歡作樂的日子已經完結，可能要改變想法了。像我們居住在香港和澳門的，真正歡騰慶祝的新年卻是在二月。 在這個充滿生氣、歡樂和吉利的半個月時間，家人和朋友都會歡聚一起，吃一些傳統應節的食品，例如盆菜和撈起。儘管 情人節夾在農曆新年中間，但阻止不了情侶們沉醉於浪漫的這一日，就如情人節（Valentine's Day）名字最初的由來─ 傳說古羅馬會在 2 月 14 日舉行盛大的典禮慶祝「牧神節」，食物總是表達人們愛意的方式，不論你慶祝農曆猴年還是情 人節，用以下介紹的餐廳的美食取悅別人的胃口，總錯不了。 If you thought the feasting season just passed, think again. For those of us living in Hong Kong and Macau, the actual new year celebration really kicks off in the month of February. For 15 days of the month, the liveliest and most auspiciously colourful festivity begins among the Chinese culture where families and friends gather to feast on traditional dishes like Poon Choi (“basin vegetables”) or Lo Hei (prosperity salad). Whereas, snug in between the festivities is a day where all lovebirds worldwide befallen into the mood of romance. There’s a reason why Valentine’s day is originally known as the Feast of Saint Valentine – food is always definitely a gateway to express one’s love. Regardless whether you are celebrating the Lunar New Year of the Monkey or Valentine’s Day – you cannot go wrong through the art of pleasing one’s appetite with these special menus prepared by these restaurants. 62 | KEYPAD

Michelin-starred chef Philippe Orrico recently branched out into a simplistic yet innovative gourmet venture with Hong Kong’s first all-day dining luxury Tartine concept – a beloved French staple with seasonal produce atop thickcrusted sourdough bread. Emphasizing on fresh quality ingredients with its farm-to-table concept, types of tartine combinations range from refreshing Goat Cheese & Roasted Figs to the flavourful Maison Samaran Duck Confit. The two-storied establishment has a sprightly laidback ambient, perfectly capturing the carefree joie de vivre – the French way of leading a carefree merriment life. Accompanied with a fine array of French wines and cocktail selection, this is a great place to share a simplistic warmth of a romantic dining experience with your partner.
