Arthur Hacker examines the demise of Hong Kong's first and only university on the sea. 亞瑟·克赫探究香港第一所海洋學府無疾而終的原因

FLOATING UNIVERSITY PLANS ALL AT SEA 海 上 學 府 的 命 運 H

ighly successful businessmen who fund educational establishments, museums and public buildings are rather fond of having these institutions named after themselves. As businessmen they like to have something to show for their money. This generally produces a few tiresome letters to the newspapers from disgruntled academics, but as ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes pointed out: "The foundation of every state is the education of its youth," and politicians often neglect this maxim, so the private sector has to help out. Visitors to the Tate Gallery or concert-goers at Carnegie Hall are surely thankful to Sir Henry Tate and Andrew Carnegie, with no ill-feeling, so it is not that naming an institution after its founder is generally regarded as distasteful. When CY Tung, a renowned shipping magnate, bought the great Cunard liner RMS Queen Elizabeth and refitted her as a floating university and luxury cruise ship, he renamed the storied vessel ‘Seawise University’ after himself – it sounds like ‘CY's University’. The concept

8

www.hkcitylife.com | NOVEMBER 2019

of a floating university was original to the point of eccentricity and nobody seemed to worry too much about the quirky pun. With the advent of air travel the great liners had begun to rapidly lose money, so in 1968, Cunard sold the Queen Elizabeth. The new owners berthed her at Port Everglades in Florida and used her as a floating hotel and convention centre. It was not a successful venture and the great ship began to disintegrate. In 1970, Tung bought her for US$3 million (around HK$23.3 million). He repaired the engines and she sailed to Hong Kong under her new name: Seawise University. Her maiden voyage had been made during World War Two, when she was painted battleship grey, and she and her sister ship, the Queen Mary, were used as troop carriers. "Built for the age of peace and to link the Old World to the New," wrote Winston Churchill, "The Queens challenged the fury of Hitlerism in the Battle of the Atlantic."

成 功的大商家在建立教育機構、博物館和 公共建築物的時候,往往喜歡以自己

的名字命名。大商家總喜歡以實質的東西來顯示 財力。一些學者對這種做法不表認同 , 寫信到報 章發表批評。但是,正如希臘哲學家 Diogenes 在幾世紀前指出 : 「所有國家都建基於青年的教 育。」政治人物大多忽視這句格言,私人機構於 是挺身協助。 當我參觀過泰德畫廊,在卡內基廳聽過音樂 會,我真感謝享利 · 泰德和安德魯 · 卡內基,我不 明白光什麼人們如此厭惡商人以自己的名字來 命名建築物。著名船王董浩雲向皇后遊乾公司 買下伊莉莎伯號,將之改裝成一所豪華學府,名 命光「海上學府」。巧妙的是,學府的英文名字 seawise University 跟董浩雲英文名字 (CY ’ s University) 的讀音相同。所以,董浩雲暗地裡還 是以自己的名字命名。可是,由於董浩雲是第一 位建立海上學府的人,人們也就不以為然。 在飛機發明以後,許多遊輪公司遭受虧損。 因此,皇后遊輪公司在1968年售出伊莉莎伯 號。她的新主人把她停洎在佛羅里達州的埃弗格 萊茲港,用作海上酒店和會議場地。但是,這門


生意並不成功,輪船亦漸漸變得破舊。 1970 年,董浩雲以 3 億美金購 下伊莉莎伯號!他將輪船的機件重新維修,並航行到香港,起了一個 新名字日「海上學府」。

When she arrived in Hong Kong she was in a pretty sorry state. There had been numerous engine problems during the voyage, and she had to be completely refitted. On 9 January 1972, just five days before the renovation work was due to be complete, several mysterious fires broke out on board. It was a Sunday and the Hong Kong Journalists' Association was having a barbecue at Chi Ma Wan Prison, hosted by a character known as "Dick the Drop", a former hangman. Stranded on Lantau Island, many reporters missed their deadlines,

伊莉莎伯號於二次世界大戰時首次骯行,是一首全身灰色的戰 艦。她的姊妹船瑪麗女皇號則用作接送軍隊。當時的英國首相邱吉爾 寫道 : 「九和平的藝術而建成的戰艦,把古老的世界帶到未來。兩首 女皇戰艦在大西洋戰爭中挑戰希特勒獨裁主義。」 伊莉莎伯號抵港時情況堪虞。骯行到港途中引擎發生故障,亟需 進行大搶修。 1972 年 1 月 9 日,整修工作還有五天就完滿結束,船隻 卻離奇發生火警。那天是星期日,香港記者協會在大嶼山芝麻灣舉行 燒烤活動,東道主是一位名叫 Dick the Drop 的前劊子手。因為伊莉 莎伯號起火的關係,不少記者滯留在大嶼山,來火勢蔓延得很快,消 防員即使全力撲救 ! 也無補於事。下午,伊莉莎伯號已經完全捲入大 火中,所有撲救工作亦告放棄。大火持續了 26 小時,大火熄滅後,伊 莉莎伯號向右傾倒,沉在水中。事件中雖無人命損傷,但董浩雲 5 億 美元的裝修費用卻全部化光烏有。今天,董浩雲並非以船王身份聞名 於社會,大家都知道他是香港第一任特首董建華的父親。

The fire spread very rapidly, and, despite the massive fire-fighting efforts of the Hong Kong Fire Services, the ship was completely engulfed by late afternoon and attempts to save the vessel had to be abandoned. The fires raged for 26 hours and on the following day she listed starboard and foundered. There was no loss of life but the US$5 million that CY Tung had spent renovating the great ship went up in smoke. Today, CY Tung is best known not so much as a great shipping magnate, but for being the father of Hong Kong's first Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa. The Court of Enquiry's findings were not very helpful: "The Court regrets that it ls unable to assign a certain cause to any of the fires but considers… that the most probable cause was the act or acts of a person or persons unknown."

法庭的調查對了解整件事件幫助不大 : 「十分抱歉,法庭未能就是 次火警找出確實起因…火警發生的最大可能是人光因素。」 燒焦的廢船現在成為旅遊景點,曾出現在占士邦電影《金槍客》 中。戲中奸角的總部是一艘大船,廢船就是大船的悲慘下場。■

The burnt-out hulk became a tourist attraction. It was even used as Q's headquarters in the James Bond film The Man with the Golden Gun. It was a dismal end for the monarch of the seas.■

Fashions Bespoke Excellence 卓越品質 口碑相傳

I

n a city renowned for bespoke tailoring, getting a handsome custom-made suit at one of the city’s many tailors is still high on the list of must-do items for many visitors to Hong Kong, as it has been over the decades. As consumer tastes and demographics shift, tailors are having to keep up amidst keen competition, which for some has been tough. None has been more adroit or successful than Raja Fashions, one of the city’s best-known bespoke tailors. Under the alert stewardship of Raja Daswani, a legend in his profession, the business has expanded and thrived. What accounts for its success? According to Raja Daswani, it comes down to some basic time-honoured principles that focus on adapting to and serving the changing needs of existing and emerging customers in a timely fashion. Making impeccably tailored suits for men continues to be Raja Fashions’ area of excellence. In recent years though, the company has actively catered to making smart and top-quality clothes for professional women, with a selection that rivals top-name designer brands. It also offers more fashionable bespoke clothing to younger, millennial clients as well as, increasingly, discerning clients from Mainland China, many of whom are attracted to well-made custom clothing. To keep up, the company continues to invest in equipment, upgrade the expertise of its craftsmen, and more importantly, garner proprietary access to premium fabrics such as Ermenegildo Zegna to ensure that its clients receive clothing that is cutting-edge in design, fabric and craftsmanship. To top it all, Raja Fashions offer their products at attractive and competitive prices that can represent substantial savings over top-name brands, all that with delivery to your hotel room within 24 hours, if you need.

A welcoming Italian restaurant and an opulent club lounge highlight CityLife’s culinary journey this month! 本月的美食之旅,《東方之珠》帶您領略一家意大利餐廳和一間豪華的俱樂部!

C

hris’ Common Room, an Italian restaurant located in a trendy neighbourhood just above Hollywood Road in Sheung Wan, is our first gourmet destination this month. The former Italian seafood restaurant recently reopened as Chris’ Common Room under a new concept that offers a broader menu to accommodate meat lovers and vegetarians alike. Chris’ Common Room is the brainchild of owner Christopher Liu, drawing inspiration from his university days at Oxford spent in the Junior Common Room, relaxing and socialising with his college mates. The restaurant is bright, open and airy. Its décor is contemporary. The all-glass enclosure welcomes guests into a large dining room framed by a long bar and a semiopen kitchen. The high ceilings and warm colours exude a relaxed and friendly ambience, befitting the restaurant maxim of “Bringing good food and good people together”. The cooking philosophy of the restaurant supports the ethos – appetising, authentic southern Italian dishes that incorporate quality and seasonal ingredients from Italy, Japan, Asia and beyond. We started with Red Prawn & Avocado Tartare ($280). The tartare is nicely blended and seasoned with lemon olive oil. Burrata Cheese ($180) came next, one of our favourite appetisers. The cheese is soft, with just the right texture. The Seafood Bouillabaisse ($180) is an appetising, lighter version of the popular Marseille soup that mixes vegetables with a variety of fresh seafood including clams, squid, tiger prawns and red snapper fillet, seasoned with saffron.

www.hkcitylife.com | NOVEMBER 2019

The entrees were next. First came the restaurant’s signature dish – Red Prawn Spaghetti ($500), featuring fresh Sicilian red prawn in a tomato-based sauce. The red prawn is known for its large size, tender meat and its deep-shrimp flavour, and we eagerly savoured every morsel. Next was Braised Wagyu Beef Cheek ($300) in which the beef cheek is slow-cooked in red wine. The meat is tender and practically melts in the mouth, its flavour deepened by the glorious red wine sauce. Then came our highlight dish – Roast Whole Australian Free Range Chicken ($800), with pre-order required. The chicken is marinated with homemade sauce and roasted with garlic, rosemary thyme and butter to a golden-brown colour and served with potatoes. The dish is perfect to share with a large gathering. For dessert, we had Baked Apple Flan with Salted Caramel Gelato ($118), which nicely complemented our hearty meal. Chris’ Common Room offers a wide selection of Italian wines from different regions. We had Le Tunella Pinot Grigio Col Baje 2017 ($110 /glass), a fruity, refreshing white and a nice glass of Il Molino di Grace Chianti Classico Riserva 2015 ($110/glass) for our meal. Chris’ Common Room is destined to become one of the more popular dining hotspots in town. The food is excellent, and the ambience is conducive to a hearty, happy meal. It’s also the perfect place to drop in for lunch, happy hour or dinner after a day of sightseeing along Hollywood Road and Sheung Wan. We highly recommend it.■

cheese; Truffle Caviar with Braised Abalone – Chinese-style stewed abalone with molecular truffle caviar jelly; Drunken Egg with Bottarga – another fusion delicacy of Shaoxing wine–preserved softboiled Japanese eggs with sliced bottarga molecular; and Deep fried Seaweed Cuttlefish.

The Crown is the creation of Hins Cheung, one of the city’s best-known cantopop singers and now rapidly establishing a reputation as a restaurateur. The star’s initial foray into F&B, a fine-dining French restaurant called Junon, was widely acclaimed. The Crown is Hins Cheung’s latest most ambitious venture. Sitting atop the newly built Emperor Hotel in Wanchai, close to the famous Happy Valley Racecourse, The Crown boldly expresses Hins’ vision of the ultimate entertainment lounge.

Next was served Caviar Noodles with Fish Beurre Blanc, a savoury broth with Shanghainese noodles, topped with sprinkles of salty egg yolk, dried caviar and white. Then came the Spanish Red Prawn with Deep-fried Bun and Mango Salsa in which deep-fried Chinese bun is paired with Spanish red prawn – another rare treat for us.

The Crown’s décor is opulent Art Deco: lush carpets, velvet couches and booths, gold and other rich colour accents, marble bar counter and a sunlike crown motif on the ceiling. A performance stage with a state-of-the-art sound system serves up live lounge music that showcases classic local and western songs by accomplished performers. The Crown also offers five private multipurpose rooms of varying sizes for more intimate gatherings. Guests are welcome to enjoy its spacious roof terrace which offers a 270-degree unimpeded view of the city, including the racecourse, the mountains behind and the glittering cityscape – it’s an awesome sight, especially at night. The Crown offers two sessions each evening: a dinner session from 7.30pm to 9.30pm and a midnight menu that stretches from 9.30pm till 2am. Guests may select either a 6- or 8-course Tasting Menu for the dinner session or choose à la carte after the performance starts. We opted for the 8-course Tasting Menu ($688/person); the 6-course Tasting Menu is priced at $588 per person. The meal started with four innovative appetisers: Foie Gras Tart – a foie gras bonbon served as a bite-size tart with mascarpone

The menu finishes with two desserts: Choya Kokuto Umeshu Bird’s Nest, in which the bird’s nest is infused with black plum wine; and Honeycomb with Vanilla Ice-cream, featuring vanilla ice-cream topped with French honeycomb. The Crown has an exclusive collection of fine wines, whiskies, cognacs and liqueurs and several innovative cocktails. We tried several cocktails including Pink Dahlia ($178), a white wine–based fragrant drink inspired by Hins’ bestselling album of the same name; Elixir ($178), a drink infused with sage in soda, and The Emperor ($178), a ginsenginfused cocktail that is also deemed to be healthy. Excellent food and drinks, relaxing music and splendid views in an opulent setting – a visit to The Crown is perfect for a special gathering with loved ones or friends. Do give it a try.■

Hairy Crab Feast 東海•海都「珍饌•大閘蟹」宴

It’s November, and that means the peak of the hairy crab season. Hairy crab, reared in freshwater lakes near Shanghai and Jiangsu, is a delicacy prized for its rich, golden roe. This month, The East Ocean Group, one of the top Chinese restaurant groups in the city, is offering a special hairy crab menu in its two flagship restaurants chains – Victoria City and East Ocean. We chose Victoria City Restaurant, one of the city’s best Cantonese restaurants, famous for its dim sum lunch and seafood, for our hairy crab meal. The crab, weighing 5 to 7 ounces, is traditionally steamed whole to preserve the freshness of the crab meat and roe. Other dishes use deshelled crab meat as their main ingredient. We chose the Hairy Crab Classic Feast, a 7-course meal priced at $428 per person. You can also choose a 9-course Hairy Crab Royal Feast ($1,888 for 4 persons). Our choice includes the delicious Steamed Pork Dumplings with Crab Meat and Roe (2 pieces) and Garlic Bread Topped with Crab Meat and Roe, which is crispy and tasty. An excellent soup follows – Double-boiled Chicken Soup with Conch and Dried Mushroom (served per person). Steamed Hairy Crab (2 pieces), the featured course, follows. Eating a hairy crab and getting the most out of it is an art; helpfully, the restaurant provides a cheat sheet. Eating each crab takes a bit of time but that’s the enjoyment. Two more dishes follow the crab – Poached Yam and Seasonal Vegetable in Broth and Homemade Udon in Hot and Sour Soup with Minced Pork before dessert which is Glutinous Rice Dumplings in Sweet Ginger Tea. A similar hairy crab meal is available at East Ocean Restaurant for $358 per person. Either one represents excellent value. Be sure to give this speciality a try while it’s still hairy crab season!

十一月正是吃大閘蟹的旺季。大閘蟹生長在上海和江蘇附近的淡 水湖里,因其豐富的蟹黃而聞名。本月,香港頂級中餐廳集團之一 的東海集團在旗下兩家餐廳——海都酒家和東海酒家——推出一份 特別的大閘蟹菜單。 我們最後選擇品嚐海都酒家的大閘蟹菜單,毫無疑問這是香港最 好的粵菜餐廳之一,以點心午餐和海鮮而聞名。傳統大閘蟹的烹飪 方法是蒸,這樣可以保證蟹肉和蟹黃的鮮嫩。其他的菜餚則以去殼 蟹肉為主要原料。 我們選擇了“珍饌‧大閘蟹”菜單,共7道菜,每人$428港幣。 還有9道菜的大閘蟹皇家盛宴菜單(4人餐,$1,888)。珍饌•大閘蟹 包括鮮味蟹粉小籠包(2件)和生拆蟹粉蒜蓉包,香脆可口。接下來是 一個很棒的湯-東瀛花菇螺頭燉雞湯(位上)。 此外有 清蒸大閘蟹( 2 只)。東海將品嚐大閘蟹變成一門藝術, 而且價格適中。吃螃蟹要花一些時間,但這就是樂趣所在。此外還 有濃湯淮山浸時蔬和酸辣肉燥手打烏冬,甜點是美味的薑茶湯丸。 東海酒家也推出了類似的大閘蟹套餐,每位358港幣。兩家的菜 單都是美味又可口的,趁現在還是品嚐大閘蟹的黃金季節,一定要 試一試!

Brotzeit

If you are in the mood for hearty authentic Bavarian food in a relaxed setting, then Brotzeit German Bier Bar and Restaurant is your choice. Brotzeit – German for ‘bread time’, that is, time to eat and drink – is located on Alfresco Lane on Tsim Sha Tsui East waterfront. With two floors and a large outdoor terrace, there is plenty of space, plus a gorgeous view of the harbour. Two large TV screens In the restaurant showing sports and happy hour in the early evening make it a great place to kick back and relax. We sampled a fair number of its signature dishes and beers. The Mozzarella Salad ($148) comes in a generous portion and the Cheese Spatzle ($168), a Bavarian speciality of homemade spatzle or noodles with assorted cheeses is real comfort food. The speciality, of course, is Schweinshaxe ($278) or oven-roasted pork knuckle, served with potato salad and sauerkraut. Note that Brotzeit uses only the hind shank imported from Germany, for even more tender and succulent taste. Brotzeit’s Sausage Platter ($258) includes spicy chicken sausages, Nurnberger Sausages, pork cheese sausages, Weisswurst and garlic pork sausages and is another firm favourite, as is the Grilled Mackerel ($268) in which a large mackerel fish is speared and grilled. We ended the meal with the Dessert Sampler ($168), which includes chocolate lava cake, apple strudel with vanilla ice cream and emperor’s pancake with plum sauce. Brotzeit’s extensive beer collection features a slate of imported Paulaner beers, all brewed to the standards of the German Purity Law of 1516. We tried Original Munchner Lager ($78/half litre), Dunkel Hefeweissbier ($80/half litre) – a nice wheat beer and Original Munchner

Dunkel Lager ($80/half litre), a dark beer. For light drinkers, the Stiegl Grapefruit ($65/bottle) is fruity and refreshing. November weather is perfect for sharing a down-to-earth meal in a relaxed outdoor setting somewhere like Brotzeit. Do give it a try. 如果您想在輕鬆的氛圍中品嚐正宗的巴伐利亞美食,那麼 Brotzeit German Bier Bar and Restaurant 一定是您的不二之選。

Brotzeit 在德語中的意思是“吃麵包的時間”或“吃喝時間”,位於尖沙咀 東部海濱的 Alfresco Lane。 Brotzeit 佔據兩層樓,並設有一個大型室外露 台,可欣賞海港美景。餐廳內還設有兩個大電視屏幕,可供觀看體育比賽, 並在傍晚設有歡樂時光,是放鬆身心的理想場所。 我們品嚐了多款招牌菜式和啤酒, 水牛芝士沙律 ( $148 )份量很足, 巴伐利亞芝士麵團( $168 )是巴伐利亞的特色小吃,自製的麵團搭配各種口 味的芝士,讓人味蕾得到極大滿足。最受歡迎的絕對是德國烤焗豬手伴馬鈴薯 沙律及德國酸椰菜 ( $278),Brotzeit 只使用從德國空運來的豬手,鮮嫩多 汁,口感更加。

Brotzeit 肉腸拼盤($258)也很受歡迎,裡面有辣雞肉香腸、Numberger 香腸、豬肉奶酪香腸、Weisswurst 香腸和蒜味豬肉香腸,烤鯖魚($268)則 是用長矛魚烤製而成的。最後,我們以甜品精選拼盤($168)結束了這頓晚 飯,包括軟心朱古力蛋糕伴碎朱古力雪糕、德國蘋果酥批伴雲呢拿雪糕和梅 子醬餅。 Broteit 廣泛的啤酒收藏包括很多進口的 Paulaner 啤酒,所有啤酒均符 合1516年德國純度法的標準。我們嘗試了 Original Munchner Lager($78/半 升),Dunkel Hefe-Weissbier($80/半升)這種小麥啤酒口感很好,和黑啤 Original Munchner Dunkel Lager($80/半升)。對於啤酒輕度愛好者來說, Stiegl Grapefruit($65/瓶)果味清新。 11月的天氣非常適合在 Brotzeit 這樣的戶外環境中享用美餐,一定要試 一試。

Honi Honi Tiki Cocktail Lounge

Did you ever imagine you could be sitting in a Polynesian Tiki lounge sipping tropical cocktails in the middle of Hong Kong’s Central District? Well, surprise! – welcome to Honi Honi Tiki Lounge, the city’s first tiki bar. Honi Honi is a hidden gem as the bar is located on the third floor of a commercial building. Upon entry, we were wowed not only by the tiki culture décor, but also by its outdoor terrace fenced in with tropical plants and bamboo – a veritable tropical thicket amidst Hong Kong’s concrete jungle; and it was crowded. Honi Honi is the brainchild of owner Max Traverse, a veteran operator of high-end cocktail lounges, and managed by Mario Calderone. Both are committed to faithfully recreating classic tiki cocktails and concocting innovative new drinks. Its philosophy is to balance the five elements that make a good tiki drink: sweet (syrup and liqueurs), sour (citrus juices), strong (rum), weak (juices, soda) and spice (nutmeg, cinnamon, bitter, cloves). To do this, Honi Honi has arguably the city’s largest collection of rums that it mixes and matches to create just the right cocktail. We sampled the classics first. These included the iconic Zombie ($160) – created in 1934 – based on three types of rum, using the original secret recipe from the legendary Don the Beachcomber, and Mai Tai (1944), another classic made famous by Trader Vic’s. Some of Honi Honi’s own signature drinks we tried included Bikini Girl ($120), a lychee-flavoured libation and The Curse of the Monkey ($130), a coconut-based tequila cocktail. The Honi Honi Cocktail ($200), a potent drink made with seven different rums, is highly recommended. There are so many to choose from though. Honi Honi also offers a snack menu of chicken and prawn skewers, meatballs, mini quiches and veggie balls to fill the tummy. Between tasty munchies and refreshing cocktails in an enchanting tropical ambience, no wonder Honi Honi is one of the hot gathering spots in town. You don’t want to miss it.

試想一下,坐在香港中環的波利尼西亞風情酒廊裡,啜飲熱帶雞尾 酒的情景。是不是十分驚喜?到 Honi Honi Tiki Cocktail Lounge 就可 以滿足你!這也是本市第一家波利尼西亞風情酒吧。

Honi Honi 是香港隱秘的美食打卡地,酒吧位於商業建築的三樓。 一進門,我們便被它的文化裝飾所震撼,還驚嘆於它的戶外露台,露 台四周環繞着熱帶植物和竹子——這是香港眾多混凝土建築叢林中名 副其實的熱帶雨林。 Honi Honi 是老闆 Max Traverse 的創意之作,他是管理高端雞尾 酒酒廊的資深人士,此間酒廊由 Mario Calderone 管理。兩家公司都 致力於完美重現傳統的波西米亞經典雞尾酒,並調製出新款飲品。它 的理念是要在五大製作優質飲料要素之間取得平衡:甜(糖漿和利口 酒),酸(柑橘類果汁),濃(朗姆酒),稀(果汁,蘇打水)和香 料(肉荳蔻,肉桂,苦味,丁香)。為此,霍尼·霍尼(Honi Honi)可 以說是該市最大的朗姆酒集合,可以將其混合搭配以製作出恰到好處 的雞尾酒。 首選是幾款經典酒品,標誌性的 Zombie ($160),這款威士忌誕生 與1934年,裡面還有三款朗姆酒,均使用了 Don the Beachcomber 和邁泰的原始配方,另一款則是因 Trader Vic's 而聞名。 我們品嚐 Honi Honi 的招牌飲料包括荔枝味飲料 Bikini Girl ($120)、椰子龍舌蘭雞尾酒 The Curse of the Monkey ($130)。而 Honi Honi 雞尾酒則是一種由7種不同的朗姆酒製成的烈性飲料,強烈推薦 您試試。酒品樣式豐富,小食菜單同樣精彩,有雞肉和蝦肉串、肉 丸、迷你蛋餅和素菜丸等等。 在迷人的熱帶氣氛中享用美味的小吃和清涼的雞尾酒,這也注定 Honi Honi 是全港其中之一個熱門聚集地,不要錯過哦。

Singleton Single Malt Whisky of Glen Ord 推出全新 Signature Sherry Cask 威士忌 Glen Ord, a noted distillery from the Scottish, recently launched its Singleton Sherry Cask edition amidst much fanfare. Held at the ballroom of the St. Regis Hong Kong, the glamorous event was attended by wellknown influencers and whisky aficionados and showcased gourmet presentation by Justin Quek, an internationally acclaimed chef from Singapore. Four additional Singleton vintages were sampled along with the 12-year Sherry Cask edition: Singleton 15, 18, 21 and 25 years old. The star of the launch was clearly the Singleton Cherry Cask Edition which is prepared using a triple cask maturation process that involves a fusion of American Oak Bourbon and European oak sherry cask after 12 years of maturation, followed by further maturation after blending with a selection of aging whiskies with the sherry cask whisky. The result: a whisky with rich, fruity notes and complex flavours.

Censers were popular in the Han dynasty. This goose-shaped censer is life-like. The back of the goose body is latticed, allowing smoke to rise from it. The censer is similar in function to the more well-known boshanlu-style censers from the Han period, but its form is very different. Incense was burned not just for the aroma, but also for practical reasons, such as acting as an insect repellent, and to purify the air. Combining aesthetics, practicality, and philosophy, censers are of high artistic and historical value.

GALLERIES The scoop on some of the best art showrooms and their current exhibitions

‘Louise Nevelson & Yin Xiuzhen’ at Pace Gallery - H Queen's 20 Sept—14 Nov Hong Kong Pace is delighted to present Louise Nevelson & Yin Xiuzhen, a two-person exhibition that joins in dialogue one of the premier sculptors of the twentieth century in Nevelson and a renowned Chinese contemporary artist in Yin. Coming from different eras and cultural backgrounds, this exhibition places the work of each artist into juxtaposition for the first time. Nevelson’s large-scale wood ’walls,’ with their heavy dark tones, and Yin’s colourful sculptures made of light materials draw unique associations and contrasts that retain their bohemian style and create a conceptual resonance that invites exploration of the relation between the two artists’ works from a new perspective. 12/F H Queen's, 80 Queen's Road Central, Central; Tue-Sat: 11am-7pm; 2608 5065; pacegallery.com

‘Blue-green: Yin Zhaoyang New Works’ at Tang Contemporary Art 4 Oct—16 Nov Tang Contemporary Art Hong Kong is proud to present “Blue-green: Yin Zhaoyang New Works”. The exhibition will showcase oil paintings from his Landscape series, sculptures, and installations reflecting the artist’s all new experiments with materials. It has been nearly ten years since Yin Zhaoyang began making his Landscape series in 2011. As a theme, landscape is a vast realm that has been embraced in China and the West for more than one thousand years, and re-examining and re-interpreting something so ancient is where the creativity lies. 10/F, H Queen's, 80 Queens Road Central, Central; Tue-Sat: 11am-7pm; 2682 8289; www.tangcontemporary.com

‘SANCTUARY’ at Galerie Ora-Ora 22 Oct—16 Nov Galerie Ora Ora is pleased to announce the joining of Chinese artist Liu Qi. Styling is the main focus of Liu Qi’s figurative paintings. He draws inspiration from figurative styles of various traditional cultures, such as Thangka paintings, Egyptian and Medieval profile portraits, and the colours and figures found in Chinese Han paintings. His artistic approach refrains from allowing personal feelings to subjectively influence the scene, but instead depict every emotion objectively. Liu connects contemporary art and traditional cultures in a calm, elegant and romantic manner. 17/F, H Queen's, 80 Queen's Road Central, Central; Mon-Fri: 10am-7pm; Sat: 11am-7pm; 2851 1171; www.ora-ora.com

GOUTAL – French Perfume House The opening of a specialty perfume store in Hong Kong doesn’t always grab headlines. However, the arrival of La Maison Goutal, Asia’s first flagship store for Goutal, the premium perfume house based in Paris, is clearly an exception. The nearly 3,000-square-foot flagship location on Fashion Street, the trendy shopping enclave in the heart of Causeway Bay, wows in so many ways: a luxurious décor that captures the elegance of Paris and sophisticated style of Goutal; the artistic three-dimensional window display of Goutal’s signature perfumes, complete with inviting sitting spaces; the Sensory lounge with its U-shaped area and marble countertop; the signature Fragrance-wine Pairing Workshop hosted by Goutal’s French perfumer and sommelier, a space perfect for exclusive functions; and a gift zone where customers can pick out their favourite Goutal-themed artistic postcards. It’s the fragrances, of course, that take centre stage. Annick Goutal, iconic pianist-turned-perfumier and creator of the brand, has devoted her talents to creating tale-inspired, multi-layered perfumes, blending into each fragrance poetry, nature and culture. For example, the three Goutal signature fragrances represent the journey of a woman who has grown from innocent girlhood into a confident and charming young lady, ever accompanied by Goutal’s perfumes. Petite Cherie ($1,100/50ml and $1,620/100ml), a perfume with pear notes, is Annick’s vivacious tribute to her daughter Camille. Rose Pompom ($940/50ml and $1,350/100ml) exudes rose scent from Bulgarian rose essence; and Tenue De Soiree ($1,100/50ml and $1,620/100ml) – recently launched and already a global bestseller – is pure femme fatale with the pom pom accessory. If you want to enjoy a trip to a perfume wonderland, be sure to stop by La Maison Goutal.

在香港開設專賣香水店並不常見。然而位於巴黎的高級香水生產 商 Goutal 在亞洲的第一家旗艦店 La Maison Goutal 是個例外。 這家佔地近3,000平方英尺的旗艦店坐落在銅鑼灣核心地段 Fashion Walk,在很多方面都讓人讚嘆不已:匠心獨運地糅合了品牌 法國總店設計精髓與創意元素,瑰麗奢華的裝潢延續了巴黎的優雅和 Goutal 的精緻;Goutal 最具代表性的香水,3D 立體櫥窗展示,搭配 舒適的坐臥空間;Goutal Sensory Lounge 以開放式U型吧台為主, 紋理古雅;法國香水師及侍酒師親自主理「香· 遇 Goutal 」美酒香水 體驗工作坊體驗活動,這是一個功能獨特的區域。還有一個禮品區, 顧客可以在這裡挑選他們最喜歡的Goutal題藝術明信片。 當然,香味才是最重要的。Annick Goutal 是從鋼琴師轉型為香 水師的標誌性人物,也是 Goutal 香水的創造者。她用自己的才華把 故事靈感投入到香水中,使每一款 Goutal 香水都融合了詩意,自然 與文化。例如,Goutal 的三款標誌性香水代表了,伴隨着 Goutal, 一個女人從天真女孩成長為自信迷人年輕女士的旅程。 Petite Cherie ($1,100/50ml和$1,620/100ml)是一種帶有梨味的香水,是Annick 給女兒 Camille 的禮物。 Rose Pompom ( $940/50ml 和 $1,350/ 100ml )散發出保加利亞玫瑰精華的香味; 剛推出的 Tenue De Soiree($1,100/50ml和$1,620/100ml)已經是全球最暢銷的產品, 宛若一個優雅時尚美人。 如果你想享受一趟香水仙境之旅,一定要去 Goutal。
