W

e welcome you to Hong Kong and to CityLife , the monthly magazine for visitors to Asia’s World

City.

Weather in November in Hong Kong is usually lovely and perfect to venture outdoors or explore the city on foot. Our cover story (on page 10) suggests three urban walking tours to explore the city’s neighbourhoods: Central and neighbouring Sheung Wan, which together have become one of the most culturally diverse and dynamic areas of Hong Kong; Wanchai and Causeway Bay, another fascinating part of Hong Kong Island undergoing transformation that blends the new with the old; and Nathan Road in Kowloon, the renowned “Golden Mile” and the main thoroughfare from Tsim Sha Tsui to Sham Shui Po, with a bewildering variety of things to do and see. Be sure to save some time to do one of the walking tours, if not all – it’s the best way we know to get to appreciate all Hong Kong has to offer. Hong Kong’s skyline is world renowned, owing to its natural geography of steep mountains, great natural harbour, and of course endless skyscrapers that dominate the cityscape – it’s a real treat for lovers of architecture. So why not also explore on foot or otherwise some of the iconic buildings designed by internationally famous architects? Our feature story on page 16 highlights some of these buildings and the architects behind them, including the Bank of China Tower by I.M. Pei and the HSBC Building by Norman Foster. It would be a pity to miss them while you are here. November also sees the city celebrate the Hong Kong Great November Feast with a number of culinary events taking place across the city including the Marco Polo German Bierfest, Queen Road East Festival and Lan Kwai Fong Carnival – there’s something for everyone, from dedicated foodies and lovers of good wine to those with a more passing curiosity. There are plenty of cultural events taking place as well: the highly popular Clockenflap, Hong Kong’s premier music and arts festival, returns this month – the three-day extravaganza has a new venue at the Central Harbourfront Event Space, but the programme’s activities and performances are as diverse and popular as ever. You do not want to miss it for sure! And creative arts of all sorts make their presence felt in Hong Kong with the hosting of New Visions Arts Festival 2016, its eighth edition. The festival serves as a creative platform where various artistic genres and cultural insight converge to creative new viewing experiences – what a pleasant way to be surprised, visually at least! Whether it’s walking tours, food festivals, arts events and just random exploration, you have picked a great month to visit Hong Kong, the perfect time to get acquainted with the city – you will be more than pleasantly surprised! On behalf of all of us, we wish you a most enjoyable stay in Hong Kong.

HISTORY MATTERS

香江史料

Elegant Ming chairs or a Qing wedding cabinet converted to hold a TV: antique Chinese furniture can suit any modern home. 無論是典雅的明朝椅子或是由清朝櫃子改造而成 的電視櫃,中式古典家具放在任何現代家庭都十 分適宜。

Antique Chinese Furniture 中式古典家具 H

ong Kong is a great place to choose and buy antique Chinese furniture, sourced from all over China. Some dealers send the pieces to workshops across the border, where they have more space to clean and restore the pieces. Others prefer to have their own workshops in Hong Kong where restoration is done under close supervision.

Furniture styles U n t i l t h e Ta n g d y n a s t y ( 6 1 8 - 9 0 6 A D ) sleeping, working and eating all took place at ground level using low pieces of furniture. Later, by the Song dynasty, high form furniture such as stools and chairs developed and was used by everyone. With the refinements in manufacturing and fashion over the next few centuries, the Ming and early Qing dynasties were a golden age of Chinese furniture. Ming furniture is simple and clean in design. It is scarce, since pieces are over 400 years old, and not so long ago old furniture in China was broken up to reuse the

wood. Chinese craftsmen of this period are unsurpassed. In a sophisticated system of joinery, each two pieces were fitted together, without the use of nails or glue, then a small peg was inserted into the joint to make it solid. The pieces included ingenious features such as tables with floating panels that could be altered to compensate for shrinking wood (as all wood shrinks with time).

Ming chairs Like upright horseshoe or yoke-back chairs, Ming chairs are very elegant, while folding chairs were used by officials when travelling. A scholar’s desk had a top which lifted off two side sections that held the drawers, allowing it to accompany the official on his travels. Display cabinets held books or small items of aesthetic value such as porcelain or snuff bottles. Square tables were used for dining, while long rectangular tables were for practising calligraphy or Chinese painting. Beds were canopied and often included drawers to hold possessions.

家具風格 在唐朝(公元618年-906年)以前,人們都在一 樓睡覺、工作和進餐,使用的是較矮的家具。直 到宋朝,凳子和椅子等稍微高一點的家具被廣泛 使用。緊接著的幾百年間,家具工藝不斷改進, 明朝和清朝早期成為了中式家具的黃金時期。 明朝家具的設計比較簡單,擁有超過 400 年 歷史,因此十分稀有。這個時期的工匠的手藝可 說是無與倫比,通過一個複雜的木材組合結構, 無需任何釘子或黏著劑,可將兩件木材完美地 接合在一起。然後用一個小夾子固定接合處。還 有一些很聰明的設計,例如桌子的面板是可移動 的,這樣就可以替換縮小了的木板(所有木材都 會隨著時間縮小)

明朝的椅子 明朝的椅子非常典雅,例如馬蹄形靠椅及垂直 靠背的椅子,而摺椅通常是官員出行時使用 的。明朝的書桌下方兩側用於支撐,並設有抽 屜,官員出行時可攜帶。展示櫃用來放置書本 及有觀賞價值的小物件,例如瓷器和鼻煙壺。 四方桌是用餐時使用的,而長方形的長桌則用 於書法和繪畫。明朝的床是有頂簷的,通常設 有抽屜以收納物品。


Types of wood Much of the best furniture was made from hardwood huang huali, (yellow flower pear wood) which has a very fine texture with colour ranging from pale honey to dark reddish brown. It is renowned for its fine grain and warm feeling. Zitan, tzi tan, is another hardwood, dense and very heavy, and prized as it is now extinct. It is distinguished by fine silvery cobwebs on the surface of dark purplish black wood. Generally it is too dark for more than a smallish piece. Jichiumu (chicken wing wood, as the grain resembled the neck feathers of a chicken), and ying mu (burl wood cut from a large knot or twisted root) are other popular hardwoods. In theory, hardwoods are from deciduous trees and softwoods from coniferous trees. But 'softwoods', used to describe Chinese furniture refers to miscellaneous woods that were indigenous to China and include elm, willow and walnut as well as cedar, cypress, pine and camphor wood. Blackwood was the name given by westerners to 19th century decorative Chinese furniture but the term has no real meaning. Actually a rosewood, which is the commercial name for the wood of several tropical trees, the colour is reddish purple often streaked with black and further blackened to popular taste. Hong mu, literally redwood, is a general term now in use. Modern furniture in period designs is still extensively made and the degree of darkness can be specified by buyers. In the 1970s it was particularly popular with expatriates in

Hong Kong as at that time good western style furniture was hard to come by..

Late Qing and Hybrid Pieces Late Qing dynasty furniture is more plentiful and includes country style furniture and socalled provincial pieces – although they were also used in Beijing and other major cities. Other types of furniture are stools, kitchen cabinets and wedding cupboards painted red or green with large circular brass fittings. Mostly made from softwood, they are less expensive than hardwood. Although catering to the less well off, the results are often splendid, albeit skimping on finishing in parts not normally seen. Today they are more affordable as the supply of classic pieces is limited. Inexpensive pieces of furniture are easily acquired but these are often hybrids, made up of parts from several different pieces of furniture. There is a constant demand for these ‘decorator' pieces from the late Qing dynasty and most dealers specialising in furniture have a steady supply. Some pieces can be altered to suit today's lifestyle. A small dining table may be cut down to make a coffee table or a cupboard can have its interior reworked to hold a TV. Whatever is done the elegance of many pieces fits in well with modern decor and can add a special element to any design. Although there are shops in many districts, the main antiques area is the western end of Hollywood Road, just a short walk from Central. ■

木的種類 大多數上等家具都是用屬於硬木的黃花梨木做 的,黃花梨木木質堅固,呈棕黃色或棕紅色,以 細緻的花紋及溫暖舒適的觀感著稱。紫檀木同樣 屬於硬木,木質堅硬細密,重量較重,如今已十 分稀有,它的特點是紫黑色的木的表面有細密的 銀色網紋。其他比較受歡迎的硬木還包括雞翅木 (因木紋酷似雞翅膀得名)及癭木(從樹上體積 較大的結或纏繞的樹根上割下來的瘤)。 理論上,硬木通常是闊葉樹材,而軟木則是 針葉樹材。中式家具通常使用軟木,這些木材來 自中國本地,包括榆木、柳木、核桃木、雪松、 柏木、松木及樟木。 Blackwood ( 黑木 ) 這個名 字是西方人因應 19 世紀的裝飾性中式家具命名 的,但這個名字跟木的本身沒有關係。實際上黃 檀木是幾種熱帶樹木的名字,顏色為紫紅色,通 常帶有黑色條紋,人們可對它的顏色進行加工, 以迎合大眾的喜好。紅木是如今通用的名字,各 種風格的現代家具仍大受歡迎,買家可特別指明 顏色的深淺度。這些家具在 1970 年代特別受旅 居香港的外國人歡迎,因為當時上等的西式家具 並不多。

晚清及組合家具 晚清時期的家具種類很豐富,包括田園風格及聲 稱來自各省的家具,實際上這些家具也是在北京 和其他大城市製造的。其他種類的家具包括凳 子、櫥櫃及漆成紅色或綠色的衣櫃,中間有一大 塊圓形的黃銅。這些家具大多是用軟木製成的, 價格比硬木要便宜。雖然購買的人大多不太富 裕,有些隱蔽的部位做得較粗糙,但成品整體通 常都很好看。如今這些家具的價格已不像從前那 麼高,因為經典款式的供應數量有限。 價格便宜的家具很容易買到,但這些家具通 常是由幾件不同的家具組合而成的,這些晚清時 期的裝飾性家具一直擁有一定的需求,大多數家 具供應商都能提供穩定的貨源。一些家具可改造 得更適合如今的生活風格,一張小餐桌可以切割 成咖啡桌,一個櫃子可通過改造內部結構,成為 一個電視櫃。無論如何改造,這些優雅的家具與 現代裝潢都配合得很好,對任何設計來說,都是 特別的元素。雖然香港各區都有這些店舖,但古 典家具最集中的地方是荷里活道西邊盡頭,從中 環步行數分鐘即可到達。■

COVER STORY

封面故事

WANCHAI/CAUSEWAY BAY 灣仔/銅鑼灣

One of the oldest neighbourhoods in Hong Kong, Wanchai has seen tremendous urban renewal. New, upscale residential high rises are popping up along with trendy restaurants and coffee shops amidst street markets, old neighbourhoods, and historic buildings and cultural relics. Wanchai is also home to Hong Kong’s famous bar district along Lockhart Road. Nearby Causeway Bay, a stone’s throw away and arguably Hong Kong’s best-known shopping district, offers plenty to see and buy.

e 利東街

g Avenu

Lee Tun

作為香港最古老的街區之一,灣仔經歷了一系列城市翻新。簇新的高級住宅、時尚餐廳、咖啡店聳立在熱鬧的市集、舊街區及歷史和文化建築之間。 灣仔駱克道一帶是著名的酒吧區。一步之遙的銅鑼灣更可說是香港最有名的購物區,五光十色,應有盡有。

路線

3.

Use the tram track as the spine and you can wander off the side streets as needed. Start at the beginning of Hennessy Road just after Admiralty. The tram track then turns on to Johnston Road until it merges back with Hennessy Road a kilometre or so later; Causeway Bay is but a few minutes’ walk down the same street.

4.

沿著電車路前進,您可以隨時到兩旁的小街小巷遊覽,從軒尼詩道 出發,電車路穿過莊士敦道,前進一公里左右又沿著軒尼詩道繼續 前進,從這條街步行數分鐘即可到達銅鑼灣。

Lockhart Road Bar District: Both Lockhart and Jaffe Road, running parallel to Johnston Road, come alive at night, the place to go for drinks and live music and more. 駱克道酒吧區:駱克道和謝斐道是與莊士敦道平行的兩條街道,入夜之 後更加熱鬧,是享受美酒和現場音樂的好地方。 Southorn Playground: A concrete oasis for the urban dwellers with a soccer pitch and basketball courts for recreation. You may catch elderly residents practicing Tai Chi if you go early enough. 修頓遊樂場:水泥森林中的一片綠洲,為城市居民提供踢足球、打籃球 的場地。早上您可以在這裡看到長者們練習太極。

5.

Lee Tung Ave: This new development which straddles Johnston Road and Queen’s Road East is the latest hotspot with a festive plaza and retail shops set against an appealing period architectural layout. 利東街:利東街連接著莊士敦道和皇后大道東,這片新發展的區域是最 新的休閒熱點,充滿喜慶氣氛的廣場及零售商店在具有時代特色的建築 中更為突出。 Blue House/Hung Shing Temple/Old Post Office: To get a glimpse of Hong Kong’s past, you may want to visit these historical buildings not far from Johnston Road. 藍屋/洪聖廟/舊灣仔郵政局:想一窺香港昔日風景,不妨來看看這些歷 史建築,均位於莊士敦道不遠處。 Canal Road Petty Villain Hitting: Watch elderly ladies exorcise your demons or enemies, for a price, of course, right underneath the major overhead expressway bridge on Canal Street. 在堅拿道打小人:在堅拿道天橋下有一些婦人們可以幫您“對付”您的 敵人,當然,您需要支付一定的費用。

6. Shopping Galore: Times Square, Hysan Place, Sogo, Fashion Walk and all the shops in between – only time and money are constraints. 瘋狂購物:時代廣場、希慎廣場、崇光百貨、名店坊等商場近在咫尺, 只要您有足夠的時間和金錢,就可盡情血拼。

Iconic Buildings

Famed Architects 美輪美奐,超凡匠心 M

uch like performance art, the practice of a rc h i t e c t u re i s a n e g o p ro f e s s i o n – l e s s flamboyant for sure, but intrinsically only different in its execution. Who among us wouldn’t want to have a building of their own design stand in posterity, if not perpetuity? And to have an iconic building that stands out here in Hong Kong, a city known for its skyscrapers and its skyline (the most skyscrapers in the world and one of the world’s most stunning and beautiful skylines), is an unbeatable ego boost for any architect. So it is no surprise that many of the world’s most renowned architects seek a legacy in Hong Kong. It is noteworthy, however, that while the city is dotted with architecturally impressive and interesting buildings, not that many are designed by internationally significant architects. There are a number of reasons for this: the practical approach of Hong Kong’s developers means that most buildings here are commercial while many architects prefer public buildings such as museums as vehicles of their architectural expression; rules requiring that submitted building plans comply with local building codes may discourage the use of international architects for the added costs and time; and finally local architects do deliver well designed buildings fit-for-purpose, a testament to their standards and quality indeed. Whatever the case, the city does have its fair share of buildings designed by world renowned architects. It’s well worth your time to take an architectural tour of Hong Kong and check out the monuments left by these global masters of their trade!

雖然建築設計師這份職業不及表演藝人那般光彩奪目, 但同樣是表現自我的職業,兩者只是在呈現方式上 有所不同。說到底,誰又不想自己設計的建築物能為後世 所敬仰甚或是千古留名呢?香港擁有世界上最多的摩天大 樓,也是擁有最壯觀的天際線的城市之一,對於建築設計 師來說,最大的滿足感莫過於在這個城市擁有一幢自己設 計的標誌性建築物了。 正因如此,許多世界著名的建築設計師都希望在香港 留下自己的作品,但奇怪的是,雖然這個城市有許多宏偉 和充滿特色的大樓,但由國際知名建築師設計的卻沒有想 像中多,原因可能包括以下幾點:第一,香港建築開發商 的特點。這裡大多數建築都是商用的,而建築師一般 更喜歡設計公共建築物,例如博物館等;第二,要 求本地建築師呈交的設計圖必須遵守本地建築 規範,出於時間和成本的考慮,這可能導致 較少國際建築師參與;最後,本地建築師 的作品無論是設計或功能上都十分出 色,這是標準和品質的最好印證。 無論是什麼原因,這個城市 還是有一定數量的建築是由世 界著名建築師設計的,不妨 花一點時間,來一趟香港 建築之旅,看看這些出色 的建築師的作品吧!

Bank of China Tower

Lippo Centre

The Shanghai-born American Chinese architect, now 99 years old, bequeathed one of his masterpieces in designing the triangular, 72-storey Bank of China Tower, which was Hong Kong’s tallest building until overtaken by Central Plaza in Wanchai. Also designer of the controversial Glass Pyramid at the Louvre in Paris, Pei’s BOC building is often touted as Hong Kong’s most iconic building, and for good reason, although the building’s sharp edges were once controversial and are considered bad feng shui, even to this day.

This American architect, known for his ‘minimalist’ design concept, designed the distinctive Lippo Centre in Admiralty. It was formerly called Bond Centre – for notorious Australian developer Alan Bond, who acquired the project mid-stream. The two towers feature hexagonal pop outs that accentuate the building’s zig-zag form – you can’t help but stare at it. Rudolph designed a similar building in Singapore called the Concourse, on Beach Road, with less startling effect though.

I.M Pei在上海出生,是一名美籍華裔建築師,如今已有99 歲高齡。中銀大廈外型為稜柱狀,樓高72層,直到灣仔中 環廣場建成前一直是香港最高的建築物。I.M Pei也是具爭 議性的巴黎羅浮宮金字塔的設計師。中銀大廈常被認為是 香港最具代表性的建築物,雖然其刀鋒般的形狀曾引起不 少爭議,至今仍有人認為設計存在風水問題。

這位美國建築師以其極簡抽象概念聞名,位於金鐘的力寶 中心前身是奔達中心,是根據前業主Alan Bond的名字命名 的。兩幢大樓的六面體外凸式設計十分惹人注目。Rudolph 在新加坡海濱路也設計了一幢類似的建築物,名字是 The Concourse,但並沒有力寶中心那麼矚目。

HSBC Main Building, Hong Kong International Airport, Cyberport, the Lily. Lord Foster has made his mark on Hong Kong with his thriving practice. It is the HSBC Main building, built in 1982, that is his most famous legacy. Touted as the world’s most expensive office building at the time it was built, the aluminium-Steel-and-glass structure is designed to provide external views for all of its occupants. Legend has it all the building pieces can be dismantled and re-assembled if necessary. The building also is influenced by local feng-shui notions, as evidenced by its passthrough ground floor, a haven for some of Hong Kong’s many domestic helpers who gather there on Sundays. Hong Kong International Airport’s Passenger Terminal is another Foster masterpiece with his signature floating roof adorning the airport building, similar to his design at London’s Stansted Airport.

Norman Foster為香港設計了多幢標誌性建築物,因此而名聲大噪,1982年興建的滙豐總行大廈是他最 著名的作品,也是當時最昂貴的辦公大樓,大廈主要由鋁、鋼鐵和玻璃建成,開放透明的設計令外部景 觀一覽無遺,整個設計的特色在於內部並無任何支撐結構,可自由裝拆。滙豐總行大廈的建築設計同樣 受風水影響,大樓底部完全開敞,如今每逢週日,很多外傭都會聚集於此。香港國際機場客運大樓是 Norman Foster的另一傑作,與同樣由他設計的倫敦斯坦斯特德機場一樣,採用了頂部懸浮的設計。 HSBC Main Building 滙豐總行大廈 - 1 Queen's Road, Central 中環皇后大道中1號 Hong Kong International Airport 香港國際機場 - Lantau Island, Outlying Islands 離島大嶼山 Cyberport 數碼港 - Cyberport Road, Telegraph Bay 鋼綫灣數碼港道 The Lily - 129 Repulse Bay Road, Repulse Bay 淺水灣道129號

Deep Fried Boneless Chicken Wing with Crabmeat 蟹粉燒鳳翼

A

special culinary treat for visitors coming to Hong Kong in November is eating hairy crabs, a seasonal delicacy available only at this time of year, with November the best month. The most prized hairy crabs come from the lakes of Tai Hu and Yang Cheng, both in Jiangsu province near Shanghai. The crab derives its name from the chunk of hairy ‘moss’ that grows on its claws. The crab meat is fresh and sweet, but the part most valued by aficionados is the crab’s rich thick golden roe. The crab is steamed and served hot, and while deshelling a hairy crab is considered fun by some and arduous by others not so familiar with the technique, it is certainly part of the ritual. A good size crab is about 200 to 250 grams and is normally the featured dish of a dinner meal. Demand for hairy crabs is high in Hong Kong, and thankfully the city still manages to get preferred quality allocation from China despite rising demand elsewhere. We tried our hairy crab meal at the famed Man Wah, at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, one of Hong Kong’s venerable, iconic hotels. The Michelin-starred restaurant serves primarily Cantonese cuisine plus classical, regional Chinese dishes. The impeccably decorated restaurant exudes elegance and luxury, and you know you are in for a special meal. Man Wah has created a special menu featuring dishes pairing minced crab meat and crab roe with different meat selections. The dishes can be ordered either a la carte or as part of a set menu ($768 and $1388 for six-course set lunch and dinner respectively). Our first course is the Deep Fried Boneless Chicken Wing with Crabmeat ($198), a refreshing choice as the tender chicken meat blends in well with the crab meat. Next is the Pan Fried Scallop with Shrimp

www.hkcitylife.com | NOVEMBER 2016

Paste and Crabmeat ($228) – we like the sweet taste of the scallops which the crab meat helps accentuate, aided by the salty shrimp paste flavour, a most pleasant sensation to the palate. The Braised Pork Ball with Crabmeat in Brown Sauce ($198) is served next. This highly popular Shanghainese dish , also called Lion’s Head in Chinese, is a staple in most restaurants’ menu. We like the effect of the crab meat flavour adding to the heavier sauced pork, creating a delightful balance. We saved the best for last: the Stir Fried King Prawn with Rice Cake and Crabmeat ($298). The flavours of both the prawn – which is really crunchy and tender – and the crab meat are soaked up by the bland, slightly chewy rice cake, and make for a delicious combination. We would be remiss not to mention that the meal was accompanied by a most delightful drink made from preserved plums that is slightly sour and sweet and light, and which lightens the meat flavours – be sure to ask for it if available. We finished our meal with two more courses: exquisitely presented Poached Shanghainese Cabbage in Supreme Broth – carved like a flower and a most welcome respite from the meats – and Braised Rice with Sea Cucumber and Chicken, the tasty rice serving as a fitting end to this wonderful meal. The restaurant will be serving steamed hairy crabs for the month of November and will fly in two lovely Shanghainese ladies to demonstrate and de-shell a hairy crab with the crab shell wholly intact afterwards in less than three minutes. Be sure to book your reservation and try out this special treat. ■

秋風漸起,又到了每年一度品嚐大閘蟹的最佳時節, 十一月訪港的旅客可以大飽口福了!來自江蘇省太 湖和陽澄湖的大閘蟹向來是最受歡迎的。大閘蟹又稱為毛 蟹,這種蟹的特徵是蟹螯上有密集的絨毛,因而得名。大 閘蟹的蟹肉味道鮮甜,但最令大閘蟹愛好者瘋狂的是那 質感厚實、味道濃郁的金黃色蟹膏。大閘蟹通常用蒸的做 法,去蟹殼的過程對部分人來說頗有樂趣,但也有人認為 十分麻煩,但無論如何,這都是必要的步驟。大閘蟹每隻 約200到250克重,通常都是晚宴中的主角。香港對大閘蟹 的需求很大,幸好高質素大閘蟹的數量尚算充足。 文華東方酒店是香港最老牌、最具代表性的酒店之 一,這次我們來到酒店內頗負盛名的文華廳。這間米其林 獲獎餐廳提供粵菜及各地區傳統中菜。餐廳裝潢優雅奢 華,為賓客營造完美的用餐環境,一踏進餐廳就能預料到 這一定是一頓特別的晚餐。 文華廳特別為賓客設計了一款以蟹肉和蟹膏搭配不同 肉類的特色菜單,可選擇單點菜單或六道菜的套餐菜單 (午餐$768/位,晚餐$1,388/位)我們品嚐的第一道菜是 蟹粉燒鳳翼 ($198),嫩滑的雞肉和蟹肉是完美配搭,味道 十分清新。下一道菜是蟹粉煎百花元貝皇 ($228),蟹肉的 味道突出了元貝的鮮甜,配上鹹香的蝦醬,滿足了我們挑 剔的味蕾。 接下來的紅燒蟹粉獅子頭 ($198) 是很受歡迎的上海 菜,是很多餐廳都有的常見菜式,在獅子頭中加入蟹肉, 是一道口感和味道都很均衡的菜式。 我們最喜歡的是蟹粉年糕老虎蝦 ($298),老虎蝦炸得 外脆內嫩,年糕的味道清淡,口感軟糯,完全吸收了蟹肉 的味道,滋味配搭令人回味。 除了各款美饌之外,不得不提的是適合搭配以上各款 菜式的酸梅湯,淡淡的酸甜味可稍稍平衡肉類的味道,別 忘了問一問侍應當天是否有酸梅湯供應。 除此之外,我們還品嚐了高湯津白菜,大廚獨具匠心 地將津白雕琢成花狀,味道清新,令我們感覺十分舒適。 最後一道菜是美味的海參雞粒炆飯,為這一頓完美作結。 文華廳將於整個十一月供應大閘蟹,更將派出兩位服 務員,以純熟技巧於席前為賓客三分鐘內拆解原隻大閘 蟹。趕快訂座,一嚐蟹鮮吧!■

www.hkcitylife.com | NOVEMBER 2016

anhai Number 1, located on the top floor of i-Square in Tsim Sha Tsui and with a commanding view of Victoria Harbour, is a favourite dining hotspot among both locals and visitors. Operated by Elite Concepts, a restaurant group specialising in contemporary and themed highend dining, the restaurant serves a broad collection of quality Chinese cuisines. The restaurant is spacious, modern and comfortable. The high ceiling creates an airy ambience, helped by the bright skyline that surrounds the restaurant – the famous Eyebar located at the same premises, where guests can enjoy the stunning harbour view from its open air terrace, further cements the restaurant’s status as a desired dining destination. Not surprisingly, the restaurant offers hairy crabs when in season, with their own proprietary supplies from Yang Cheng Lake. We tried the special dinner tasting menu ($1080) with the steamed hairy crab as the featured dish. The generously portioned menu starts off with Crab Roe Dumplings and the Crispy Shredded Yam with Peanuts as starters. The filling of this popular Shanghainese dumpling is juicy and tender, and is best eaten in a single swallow, allowing the flavour to linger in the mouth. The shredded yam is crispy fried, with the appetising sweet and sour sauce providing a nice contrast. The Steamed Hairy Crab comes next; ours was about 200 grams, which is a decent size. A special dark vinegar sauce mixed with ginger always goes with the dish so as to reduce the

“cooling effect” of the crab. Whatever the reason, the vinegar certainly complements the crab, especially the roe. The roe in our crab was golden brown in colour and creamy rich in taste. It was just a pity that there is only so much in each crab. The table became quiet as the focus turned to deshelling and savouring the crab. After the crab come the other dishes. First, the Steamed Grouper with Bean Curd and XO Chili Sauce – the texture of the fish fillet is firm and tender, and the steamed bean curd base soaks up the flavour. This is quickly followed by the Sautéed Chopped Yunnan Green Peppers with Clam Wrapped in Lettuce Cups. The dish name is self-explanatory, with the lettuce helping to provide a crunchy and refreshing texture to the tender clam meat and chopped peppers wrapped inside. The Roasted Pigeon, another local delight, and the E-fu Noodles with Crab Roe in Superior Soup comprise the last two dishes. The pigeon skin is crispy and its meat firm and flavourful. The E-fu noodles, a Cantonese specialty, are delicious, helped by the broth base and of course the crab roe. A Sweet Jujube Jello Dessert brings this meal to a satisfying end. By this time we are quite full, and we actually skipped two dishes that feature on the tasting menu: Shark’s Fin with Crab Roe and Simmered Asparagus in Broth. A hungry mind and empty stomach are required to make the most of this sumptuous dinner! ■

南海一號位於尖沙咀國際廣場頂層,可俯瞰維多利亞港迷人景 色,向來是本地人和遊客最愛的美食熱點之一。南海一號屬主 打新派主題高級餐飲的優意集團旗下,提供各式各樣的高級中菜。 餐廳面積寬敞,裝潢充滿現代感,感覺十分舒適,高樓底的設計更 營造出開揚、氣派的格調。食客可在餐廳旁邊享負盛名的 Eyebar 戶外露台觀賞維多利亞港海景,是休閒放鬆的最佳選擇。 涼風送爽,又是品蟹的好時節。南海一號每年都會推出來自 陽澄湖的時令大閘蟹。這次我們很榮幸率先品嚐全新大閘蟹套餐 ($1,080)其中包括5兩重的清蒸大閘蟹。 這次推出的大閘蟹套餐份量十足,頭盤是蟹粉小籠包和麥糖花 生脆芋絲,小籠包柔軟的外皮包裹著美味湯汁,一口吃完,香氣縈 繞在嘴裡。芋絲炸得十分香脆,與甜酸醬的味道形成鮮明對比,令 人胃口大開。 下一道菜就是這頓晚餐的重頭戲——清蒸大閘蟹,每隻約重 200克(5兩)。傳統中醫認為大閘蟹偏寒涼,因此通常會搭配黑 醋和薑絲以驅寒氣,這裡當然也不例外。不過無論是什麼原因,黑 醋的味道與大閘蟹的鮮甜味配合得恰到好處,特別是蟹膏那獨特香 味,實在令人無法抵擋。大閘蟹一上桌,大家就安靜下來,仔細地 去殼品嚐。金黃色的蟹膏十分粘稠,味道濃郁,可惜每隻蟹的蟹膏 有限,我們都覺得意猶未盡。 下一道菜是XO醬白玉蒸斑球,魚肉結實而鮮嫩,蒸豆腐完全吸 收了醬汁的味道。接下來的皺椒蜆肉生菜盞同樣充滿驚喜,生菜口 感爽脆,味道清新,包裹著美味的蜆肉和雲南皺椒,又是一道相當 有特色的美食。 最後兩道菜是充滿地道風味的紅燒乳鴿和蟹粉鴻圖伊麵。乳鴿 皮脆肉嫩,滋味十足。伊麵是廣東特色美食,配上濃郁的湯底和香 氣四溢的蟹膏,一試難忘。壓軸登場的甜品和田玉棗糕為這頓晚餐 劃上完美句號。 吃完這些我們已經非常飽了,但實際菜單上還有生拆蟹粉乾撈 勾翅和上湯原條蘆筍兩道主菜,來品嚐大閘蟹套餐前要有大幹一場 的心理準備哦!■

Il Moro Il Moro is a small Italian restaurant tucked away in a quiet area of Sheung Wan. If you want the feel and taste of home-made Italian food, lively conversation included, you should definitely try Il Moro. Its owner and chef, the energetic and loquacious Joseph, believes in embracing his guests with an informal and cosy dining experience, and happily prepares off-menu dishes as requested. For our meal, we trusted Joseph’s guidance and were richly rewarded. A procession of his favourites followed; the starters included the crispy and garlicky Bruschetta ($70), the fresh Roasted Cherry Tomatoes and Basil ($50), Coppa, Arugula and Shaved Pecorino ($85)- we loved the cheese and the meat combination, and the Prosciutto on a bed of Grilled Asparagus ($75)- all of which were quickly consumed. The entrees are equally appetising: Roasted Melanzane stuffed with Minced Beef served with Tomato Salsa ($170 for two), the Sicilian Clams with Chili and White Wine Sauce ($120), the Tortilli with Guanciale Di Manzo ($140), and the freshly made Red Snapper Fillet, Prawns on a Bed of Black Ink Squid ($180) round out the meal. Il Moro definitely is one of Sheung Wan’s hidden gems, and worth checking out if you want a zesty, hearty Italian meal in lively company, and all at reasonable prices!

Il Moro是位於上環一片幽靜區域的小意大利餐廳,如果您喜歡家常意大利菜的感覺和味道,也喜 歡和大廚談天說地,這是您的必到之處。活潑健談的Joseph兼任老闆和大廚,他喜歡為食客們 提供舒適隨意的用餐體驗,還會根據您的要求製作出菜單上沒有的菜式。 Joseph 為 我 們 安 排 了 一 系 列 他 最 喜 歡 的 菜 式 。 頭 盤 已 令 人 垂 涎 欲 滴 : 意 大 利 開 胃 菜 Bruschetta ($70) 以蒜蓉烤麵包配上番茄和其他蔬菜,令人胃口大開。清新的烤羅勒車厘茄($50) 、芝麻菜意大利Coppa火腿配羊奶芝士 ($85),我們很喜歡這個芝士與火腿的配搭,還有意大利 帕瑪火腿配烤蘆筍 ($75),美味的前菜很快就被我們一掃而光。 主菜同樣精彩:免治牛肉釀烤茄子配番茄醬 (兩件$170) 、紅番椒白酒煮西西里蜆($120)、 鹹牛肉麻花意大利麵 ($140),最後以新鮮烹調的紅鯛魚大蝦配墨魚汁意大利飯 ($180)作結。 Il Moro這間小店並沒有太多人知道,但絕對值得一試。您可以在輕鬆愉悅的氛圍下享用精心 製作的意大利菜,價錢也十分合理。

Praya Waterside Eatery Praya Waterside Eatery, on Kennedy Town Praya, and formerly the Irish restaurant Kinsale, reopened its doors recently. New executive chef Michael – who has worked extensively in both Melbourne and Hong Kong – has come up with an innovative concept using a broad palette of interesting and special ingredients. The signature dishes we sampled included Seared Scallops Paired with Candied Pork Belly and Aioli ($158). The fried scallops were crispy and tender, complementing the pork belly, which is cooked with a special sweet and lemon sauce. The Whole Roasted Seabass ($258) is mouthwatering with its crispy skin and tender fillet. The Smoky Slowed Cooked Pork Ribs ($238) practically melts in the mouth as the tender meat separates readily from the bones – the shallot potatoes provide a good complement. Besides the signature dishes, the Seafood Spaghetti ($228) is worth trying, as are the desserts, including the Sesame Fried Goat Cheese ($148) and the Chocolate Pavlova with Mango and Vanilla Cream ($78), both innovative and tasteful creations.

Praya Waterside Eatery前身為愛爾蘭餐廳Kinsale,早前已於堅尼地城新海 旁隆重開幕。餐廳請來曾在墨爾本和香港多間知名餐廳任職的新任行政總廚 Michael,他擅長運用特色食材入饌,製作出獨具匠心的佳餚。 香煎帶子配蜜餞豬腩肉 (HK$158) 是我們品嚐的第一道招牌菜,新鮮飽 滿的帶子煎得外脆內嫩,加上微甜的五花肉和特製檸檬蛋黃醬,令人食指大 動。烤原條海鱸(HK$258)將魚皮煎至香脆,但魚肉依然嫩滑。煙燻慢煮牛 肋骨(HK$238)經長時間烹煮,肉和骨頭能輕易分離,再加上香蔥馬鈴薯沙 律作為配搭,心思十足。 招牌菜式以外,同樣充滿驚喜。雜錦海鮮意粉(HK$228)以魚湯和番茄 醬作湯底,滿載鮮味,芝麻炸羊奶芝士 (HK$148) 外層香脆可口,入口充滿芝 士香。朱古力蛋白酥配芒果及雲呢嗱忌廉(HK$78)在蛋白酥上鋪滿朱古力 醬、香草忌廉和朱古力碎,再以鮮芒果和芒果乾點綴,是一道十分出色的新 派甜品。

Sharing insights on

ENHANCING ORGANISATIONAL PERFORMANCE THROUGH UNLOCKING LEADERSHIP POTENTIAL

發掘領導潛能,改善企業績效 Professor Maxim Sytch, Associate Professor of Management and Organization at the University of Michigan Ross School of Business, shares his thoughts on the impact of leadership development on organisational performance and the school’s Strategic Leadership Program. 美國密歇根大學商學院組織管理學副教授 Maxim Sytch與我們分享發展領導才 能對企業績效的影響以及有關密歇根大學戰略領導力課程的介紹。

My passion is the study of leadership and specifically how leaders leverage relationships within and between organisations to unlock their own leadership potential and enhance their organisation’s performance. I’ve led talent development programmes with companies in over twenty countries. I have also experimented with delivery methods in leadership training: my colleagues and I launched an online course which has become the world’s most popular online leadership course with over 150,000 students all over the world. I am excited to bring our research insights and share them with our programme participants. The Strategic Leadership Program is an intensive five-day leadership development course that we offer to senior managers with, typically, director or similar titles, and who have significant strategic and operational responsibilities in their companies or business units. The programme is designed to improve and enhance their leadership skills. Our programme distills the many research and practical insights learned at the Michigan Ross which is a recognised world leader in organisation and leadership studies. The distinctive feature of our programme is that, in addition to providing participants with a leadership development tool kit, it is also reflective: participants

Professor Maxim Sytch

conduct a “360” assessment prior to the programme with feedback from subordinates, peers and superiors, allowing them to focus on concrete developmental opportunities in their leadership skills. Understanding one’s own leadership style is a critical aspect of the programme and is the basis for an actionable leadership development plan.

我很喜歡學習有關領導力的知識,特別是有關領導如何 在企業內和企業之間發揮作用,發掘自身領導潛能,改 善企業績效。過去我為超過20個國家的不同企業提供技 能培訓課程,除此之外,我還致力於發展不同的學習模 式,我和同事們一起開辦了一個網上課程,如今已成為 全球最受歡迎的領導課程,擁有超過15萬名來自世界各 地的學生。

Competing Values Framework is the cornerstone of Michigan Ross’s research on leadership. In short, it identifies dominant tendencies in the way we lead other people (e.g. the extent to which we focus on performance results versus people development). It also allows leaders to explore the tensions that arise from different dominant tendencies either between individuals or between the individual and the organisation. It’s a powerful concept that helps align the individual’s leadership style with both the culture and strategic objectives of the organization. In that sense the framework can be both diagnostic and prescriptive.

密歇根大學的戰略領導力課程是一個密集式課程,課程 時長為五天,針對高級管理人員特別是負責企業戰略和 營運的主管,幫助他們提升領導能力。密歇根大學的組 織和領導研究水平享譽國際,而這個課程也涵蓋了大學 的多項研究和發現。

The benefits to participants of this programme are substantial and manifold: acquisition of a skill set that is validated by both research and experience and can be applied immediately to improve one’s leadership ability; creation of an individualised, sustainable leadership development plan based on the 360 assessment; and, most importantly, delivery of the ability and tools to allow participants to cascade what they learn to their peers and subordinates by becoming teachers themselves. This multiplier effect is a highly effective way of leadership development for companies from both a cost and time standpoint. Our feedback from past participants confirms that these benefits are real and lasting.

競值架構是密歇根大學有關領導力研究的基礎。簡而言 之,它有助於發現管理者在領導過程中的主導趨勢,例 如是更注重績效還是人才發展,以及幫助管理者探討個 人之間或個人與企業之間不同主導趨勢引起的不同效 果。這個極具影響力的概念可將個人領導風格與文化和 企業的戰略目標緊密結合,因此這個架構既可以是診斷 性,也可以是規範性的。

Our ultimate goal for this programme is to deliver a transformative set of leadership skills that allows the participants and their companies to thrive and compete effectively in the increasingly dynamic global economy, and I think we have the right foundational tools and knowledge to achieve that.

課程最大的特色是除了向學員教授領導技巧之外,學員 上課前還會進行一次全方位的評估,他們會收到下屬、 同事和上司的反饋,這樣他們就可以專注在自己領導技 巧上的具體發展機會和空間。了解自己的領導風格是這 個課程的重要內容,也是一個實際可行的領導力發展計 劃的基礎。

學員完成課程後將受益匪淺:課程教授的領導技巧均經 過研究和實驗認可,可即時應用並提高管理者領導能 力;根據全方位的評估,學員將取得一份針對個人領 導能力發展的長遠計劃;最重要的是,學員可以向同事 和下屬傳授在這個課程中所獲得的知識。無論是從時間 或成本的角度來看,這對企業的領導力發展都是十分高 效的。根據以往的學員反饋,這些效益都是真實和長遠 的。 這個課程的最終目的是向學員傳授靈活的領導才能,讓 學員和他們的企業在不斷變化的全球經濟環境下快速發 展,提升競爭力。我認為我們已經具備所需的基本工具 和知識。

The first solo exhibition dedicated to Maria Taniguchi in Hong Kong at Galerie Perrotin

3 Nov-21 Dec. The exhibition showcases about 6 brick paintings and 1 installation. Though the artist refers to them as “brick paintings”, these works are only a suggestion of a solid structure.

The paintings appear to be either exterior or interior, or are even possibly not “walls”. Tue-Sat, 11 am-7 pm. 17/F, 50 Connaught Road, Central. 3758 2180. www.perrotin.com

CONCIERGE CHAT

禮賓司天地

Ringo Chau, Service Manager at the Kowloon Shangri-La, Hong Kong shares with us his experience in the hospitality industry 九龍香格里拉大酒店 禮賓部服務經理周慶彬 與我們分享他在酒店業的經歷。

Ringo Chau 周慶彬

CONCIERGE CHAT CityLife: Can you tell us how you got started in the hotel industry? Ringo: A schoolmate introduced me to this industry back in 1979, and it’s now 37 years and counting. I was impressed by the concierge’s uniform and the golden key on its lapel, so I chose concierge as my job. I joined Kowloon Shangri-La in 1982 and became the Service Manager as I progressed. CL: What is your favourite part of the job and why? Ringo: I enjoy all the challenges that come with the job, which means I have to deal with anything and everything. A successful concierge needs to be experienced, have a broad network, and be resourceful. I am an outgoing person and like to help people, so this is a very enjoyable job for me. CL: Have you observed any changes in guests’ service needs? Ringo: Guests demands are clearly becoming more discerning. Most guests are already up to speed with the basics, from the internet, and are looking to us for more detailed and specific

東方之珠:可以跟我們說說你是如何進入酒店行 業的嗎? 周:我是 1979 年經同學介紹進入酒店行業的, 至今已有37年經驗。面試時看到禮賓部的制服和 制服上的金鑰匙很帥氣,就這樣被這個行業吸引 了。我在1982年加入九龍香格里拉大酒店,經過 不懈的努力,逐漸晉升至現時的職位。 東方之珠:你最喜歡禮賓司工作的哪一部分?為 什麼? 周:我最喜歡這份工作帶來的挑戰性,這份工作可 以說是沒有界限的,一名成功的禮賓部經理需要有 豐富的經驗、人際網絡和很強的靈活性,我性格外 向,喜歡幫助別人,因此很享受這份工作。 東方之珠:你認為最近幾年顧客對服務的要求有 什麼變化嗎?

information. So we have to raise our service standard and be highly attuned to their needs and preferences. CL: Any memorable requests from guests that you can share with us? Ringo: A couple from Europe who were staying at our Guangzhou Shangri-la came to Hong Kong for an excursion and checked into our hotel – the husband was Italian and wife French – and they had planned to return to Guangzhou to catch a flight back to Italy. But to their horror they discovered that their China visas were single entry only and it would take four days to apply for a new one, for a French citizen. We suggested they changed their flight to one leaving from Hong Kong, and we arranged for their luggage to be transferred to our Shenzhen Shangri-la. We then arranged for our staff to accompany the husband to Shenzhen, which grants same-day landed visas to Italian passport holders, to pick up the luggage. They were able to return home without further incident.

周:近年來顧客對服務的要求提高了不少,由 於科技發展迅速,一般顧客向我們求助前已在 互聯網上獲取一定信息,這就要求我們的服務 更加細緻,更關注顧客的需求和喜好,而不再 是只提供基本信息。 東方之珠:顧客曾提出什麼讓你覺得很難忘的要 求嗎? 周:有一次一對夫妻下榻我們酒店,妻子和丈夫分 別是法國人和意大利人,他們從廣州香格里拉酒店 到香港遊玩,然後回廣州乘飛機到意大利。沒想到 他們只有單程簽證,不能再從香港進入內地,而法 國人辦理簽證需時四個工作天。我們建議他們將機 票改為在香港起飛,並通知廣州香格里拉酒店打包 好他們的行李,送到深圳香格里拉酒店,在我們的 專人陪同下,丈夫利用落地簽證到深圳取得行李, 兩人最終順利回到意大利。■

RINGO RECOMMENDS 周慶彬誠意推薦

Favourite local Hong Kong food: Favourite local foods: First-time Hong Kong visitors should try the egg waffle and the Bu Zai Pudding, both wellknown local street food that I have not seen elsewhere. Two-day itinerary for visitors: Day 1: Take the Peak Tram to the Peak and enjoy a panoramic view of Hong Kong. Go to Aberdeen's fishing village and visit the Jumbo Restaurant there. Or go to Repulse Bay, enjoy a walk along the beach with your loved one and have a romantic dinner at the Veranda there. Day 2: Ride the Ngong Ping 360 Cable Car on Lantau Island and visit the Big Buddha, then head along to Tai O fishing village and explore its rich heritage. You can relax and have a drink and if the timing is right take a boat and try to catch sight of our famous Chinese Pink Dolphins. 最愛的香港食物: 首次來港旅客不可錯過的地道美食:雞 蛋仔和砵仔糕,西式的格仔餅很常見, 但港式雞蛋仔和砵仔糕是我在別處沒有 看到過的。 兩天香港遊行程建議: 第一天:在香港島乘坐山頂纜車到太 平山頂俯瞰香港全景,遊覽香港仔漁 村,參觀著名的珍寶海鮮舫。或者到 淺水灣一遊,與摯愛在沙灘上閒逛, 在淺水灣的露台餐廳 The Verandah 品 嚐晚餐。 第二天:乘坐昂坪 360 纜車到大嶼山參 觀天壇大佛,前往歷史悠久的大澳漁 村,悠閒地喝咖啡、啤酒,運氣好的 話,還可乘船觀看中華白海豚。
