s chairman of Hong Kong Hotels Association, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to Hong Kong and to CityLife, the monthly magazine for visitors to Asia’s World City. Happy New Year! And may you have a prosperous and rewarding 2022. Regrettably Hong Kong, like the rest of the world, is still feeling the acute impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, now in its third year. As the city’s vaccination effort proceeds steadily, and as travel restrictions to and from China are partially lifted, we are hopeful that visitors will return to Hong Kong soon, with international travel hopefully to follow. For now, while some social distancing measures are still in effect and masks must still be worn in all public places, the city is fast returning to normal, with most events and activities resuming. For prudence, though, we suggest that you contact your concierge for up-to-date details of availability. This month, our cover story features some of the Hong Kong’s coolest neighbourhoods – those areas that are on the move, transforming themselves, mostly organically, into vibrant and dynamic neighbourhoods driven by demographics and influxes of expats and millennials. The evolution of these neighbourhoods, across Hong Kong, is what makes the city fascinating – colourful contrasts of people, architecture, culture and food. Please go to page 6 for more details on our selection of these cool enclaves. How better to welcome in the New Year than by taking advantage of the city’s mild winter weather and exploring all the outdoor activities it has to offer? The city is certainly spoilt for choice in its diverse offerings, whether it’s taking cool winter hikes through country parks; exploring the many different outlying islands, each charming and picturesque in its own way; cycling through wetlands or along scenic waterfronts, relaxing in parks and gardens; or even jostling with crowds at the city’s most iconic street markets. Please turn to our feature story on page 12 for details. The city starts the new year with a plethora of events slated. Among them is the first-ever Spring Shopping Fest, performance events at Xiqu Centre, FreeSpace, and the newly opened Art Park venue, all located at the West Kowloon Cultural District, and music performance elsewhere. Please check the Our Calendar section for more details on these events and more. With overseas travel restricted, the dining scene in Hong Kong is as busy as ever as residents seek any opportunity to be out and about. This month we continue to explore the city’s rich food culture and introduce several restaurants serving local and regional cuisines. So step right along to our dining section for more information on the best places to eat and drink. As the city continues its determined recovery from the pandemic, we appreciate your patronage of our hotels, and please enjoy Hong Kong and all it has to offer.

RubberBand x Hong Kong Festival Orchestra "Live by the Harbour" Concert 2022

While listening to concerts outdoors is enjoyable, performing concerts outdoors and feeling the music flow boundlessly in the air has always been RubberBand's preferred way of performing. RubberBand will participate in the "Live by the Harbour" concert at Wonderland, West Kowloon Cultural District, a new venue. For the first time, it will partner with the orchestra in a live concert, The group will perform "See you in the future" and "Derailed" Moments> with the Hong Kong Festival Orchestra, re-write and perform the most familiar RubberBand songs, and link them with multiple classical music and classic film soundtracks, like an ensemble with musicians of different eras, telling the stories of our city, large and small.

RubberBand x Hong Kong Festival Orchestra "Live by the Harbour" 音樂會 2022 如果說在戶外聽音樂會是一種享受，而在戶外演出音樂會，感受音樂在無邊的空氣流動，則是 RubberBand 一直以來偏愛的表演方式。 2022年一月，RubberBand 將於全新場地西九文化區竹翠公園 Wonderland 參與《Live by the Harbour》音樂會，更首次於現場音樂會拍夥管弦樂團，與曾合作演奏〈未來見〉及〈脫軌時刻〉的 Hong Kong Festival Orchestra，重新編寫及演繹最耳熟能詳的 RubberBand 歌曲，並以多首古典音樂及經典電影配樂串連，彷如與不同時代的音樂人隔空合奏，道出我城的大小故事。

Yu Long | Bernstein

Music is an art that can suspend time or recreate it, and today the HK Phil’s distinguished Principal Guest Conductor Yu Long joins erhu player Yiwen Lu and star pianist Zee Zee to explore exactly what that means. Chen Qigang’s Un Temps Disparu is a ravishing modern Chinese classic, while Leonard Bernstein’s The Age of Anxiety is halfsymphony, half–piano concerto – and every bit as entertaining as you’d expect from the composer of West Side Story .

余隆 | 伯恩斯坦音樂可以讓時間停頓，也可以令過去的時光重現眼前。香港管弦樂團首席客席指揮余隆將聯同二胡演奏家陸軼文及鋼琴家左章，以音樂讓觀眾在時光隧道裡流連忘返。陳其鋼的《逝去的時光》是一首動人心弦的現代中國經典，而伯恩斯坦的《焦慮的年代》一半是交響曲、一半是鋼琴協奏曲，娛樂性完全不亞於伯恩斯坦的《西城故事》。

The Hertz "To All Frequencies" concert 2022

The Hertz released their eponymous first EP "THE HERTZ" last year and left the words "To All Frequencies" on the last page of the lyrics book, signifying that the end of the EP is another beginning for the orchestra, like a tribute to each

frequency. This concert is also named "To All Frequencies", marking the beginning of a new chapter for the orchestra, and at the same time recording the growth experience of the orchestra in the past three years. Everyone is invited to come and witness!

The Hertz "To All Frequencies" 音樂會 2022 The Hertz 去年推出首張同名 EP 《 THE HERTZ 》並於歌詞簿裡最後一頁留下字句「 To All Frequencies」，代表着 EP 的完結是樂團另一個開始，亦猶如對各頻率的一種致敬。今次音樂會亦同樣以「To All Frequencies」命名，意旨樂團新一章的開首，同時記錄成軍三年以來的成長經歷。邀請大家一同前來見證！

Freespace Ensemble Reimagines Kraftwerk

Times have changed since the innocent pre-digital 70s when Kraftwerk emerged with robot-pop sounds like Autobahn and audiences dreamed of a bright, benevolent computer-aided future. Revisiting work from albums created between the 70s and the 90s, the ensemble deconstruct and reconstruct iconic sounds, adding a new dimension of noise and human complexity to the audio-visual landscape and offering a more layered sense of where the computerised world is taking us today.

Tea House Chamber Music Series: Young

25 Jan- Pro Platform – Venture into the Unknown 12 Apr Between January and April, the talented emerging

musicians of Young Pro Platform – part of The Orchestra Academy Hong Kong – present four unconventional chamber music concerts in the intimate setting of the Xiqu Centre Tea House Theatre. Mixing strings, woodwind, brass and percussion, the concerts are devised for three to six players and showcase a wide spectrum of musical styles and genres, including classical, contemporary and pop music.

自由空間樂團再現 Kraftwerk 半個世紀以來，Kraftwerk 一直深深影響每一代音樂人和樂迷，包括一眾自由空間樂團成員。Blue Kwok、hirsk、朱肇階（Daniel Chu）、Jonathan Yang、吳漢紳（Charles Ng）、黃德聰和朱殷政（Victor Chu），分別來自爵士、當代古典、電子等不同音樂背景；這場節目有別於 Kraftwerk 以電子合成器主導的演出，自由空間樂團成員將以多種樂器合奏，以與電子音樂迥異的手法和風格，拆解及重組 Kraftwerk 的音樂美學。

香港岛

Sheung Wan / Sai Ying Pun 上环/西营盘

The historic area of Sheung Wan and its neighbour Sai Ying Pun has witnessed dramatic transformation and gentrification over the last two decades, due in part to the growing French expat community, many of whom have chosen to settle here. Long a backwater behind the shiny attractions of Central, albeit with a rich and lurid history of warehouses, mental hospitals, slaughterhouses and speakeasies, Sheung Wan – now dubbed Hong Kong’s coffee hub – and Sai Ying Pun have turned into distinct, tony neighbourhoods where trendy eateries and coffee houses sprout along Hollywood Road and its side streets and up into the hilly grid above Queen’s Road West. Alongside, you can always visit the contrasting dried seafood streets and historical landmarks such as Man Mo Temple, Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences or browse around Cat Street looking for souvenirs and hidden gems.

Kennedy Town

Kon

可以說，上環及鄰近的西營盤在過去的二十年中見證了最劇烈的高檔化，部分原因是越來越多的法國外籍人士選擇在這片區域定居。上環，被稱為香港的咖啡中心，目前已經變成了獨特的高尚優閑社區，沿荷李活道和它的小街以及皇后大道西上面的西營盤的山地街道，時尚的餐廳和咖啡館已經興起。作為對比，你可以隨時去海味街和歷史地標，如文武廟、香港醫學博物館，或者在貓街逛逛，尋找紀念品和隱藏的珍寶。

坚尼地城

Thanks to the convenience of the extended MTR system, Kennedy Town has also undergone rapid gentrification in recent years. The pace continues unbated, fuelled by the growing Hong Kong University community and continuing influx of Western expats. The New Praya Kennedy Town along the waterfront is lined with trendy restaurants and bars, as are Forbes Street and Davis Street, which have sprung to prominence from nowhere, it feels.

由於地鐵系統的延伸，這裡的交通更加便利，所以堅尼地城近年來也經歷了快速的高檔化。在不斷壯大的香港大學社區和不斷湧入的西方外籍人士的推動下，高端化態勢有增無減。沿着海濱延伸的堅尼地城海傍兩旁是時尚餐廳和酒吧；科士街和爹核士街也是如此，這個地區的轉型最為明顯。

Wong Chuk Hang 黄竹坑

Another old industrial and cargo area that has transformed, as former warehouse buildings are converted into uses such as wine storage, micro-breweries, galleries and boutiques. The development of new office buildings and upscale waterfront residential buildings, completion of the South Island MTR Line linking to the southern side of the island, and the opening of new hotels and of course the Ocean Park Water World have all combined to secure Wong Chuk Hang’s reputation as an up-and-coming neighbourhood. A nice day trip out to Wong Chuk Hang includes a visit to the outlet mall Horizon Plaza on Ap Lei Chau, galleries such as Sarthe, Blind Spot Studio, Red Door Studio, Africa Coffee & tea, a café with a stunning view of the sea and marina, Nam Long Shan Cooked Food Market and Young Masters brewery, along with many other options.

g Ko ng

另一個經歷了重大變化的舊工業和貨運區，這些建築被改成其他用途，如酒庫、微型啤酒廠、畫廊和精品店。新寫字樓及高檔海濱住宅樓的發展，連接島南的南港鐵線竣工，以及新酒店的開業，當然還有海洋公園水上樂園，這些都提升了黃竹坑新街區的色聲譽。一日遊包括參觀鴨脷洲的名品折扣購物中心——新海怡廣場、 Sarthe 等畫廊、 Blind Spot Studio 、 Red Door Studio、Africa Coffee & Tea、還有可欣賞壯麗海景的咖啡館和碼頭、南朗山熟食市場和少爺啤酒廠等。

Wan Chai 湾仔

One of Hong Kong’s oldest neighbourhoods, Wan Chai happily carries its mantle as a microcosm of the city’s development history – a kaleidoscope of early–20th century South China–style tong lau buildings (the Blue House, 7 Mallory Street, The Pawn), ancient temples (Hung Shing Temple; Che Kong Temple), hip redeveloped buildings turned into upscale residential and retail complexes, and dining hotspots of a wide selection of international, regional and local cuisines (Star Street, J Senses, Lee Tung Ave, QRE Plaza). Even the venerable bars and clubs on Lockhart Road made famous by The World of Suzie Wong are slowly gentrifying. Yet the old charms of street markets, bustling crowds and traditional shops remain. Wanchai is worth visiting, either as a half-day leisurely stroll, or a night out on the town for dinner and drinks. 作為香港最古老的街區之一，灣仔已成為城市發展歷史的典型縮影—— 20 世紀初的華南風格唐樓（藍屋、茂蘿街 7 號、和昌大押）、古老的寺廟（洪聖寺、車公廟）重建後成為高檔住宅和零售綜合體的時髦建築，以及各種國際、區域和當地美食的餐飲熱點（星街、J Senses、利東大道、QRE Plaza）。就連由《蘇絲黃的世界》而聞名的駱克道上的老牌酒吧和夜店，也在緩慢地進行着高檔化的蛻變。不過街頭市場、熙熙攘攘的人群和古老的商店的舊魅力依然存在。灣仔值得一遊，悠閒漫步半天，晚上留在這裡享用晚餐和飲品。

Sham Shui Po 深水埗

Traditionally one of Hong Kong's grittiest old neighbourhoods, Sham Shui Po is being reinvigorated by a happy influx of the younger generation. This colourful district dotted with early–20th century tong lau buildings is home to a buzzing flea market (Ap Liu Street) and a shopping haven for fabrics, leather goods, and computers and accessories. A plethora of trendy coffee shops and artsy design shops offer a vibrant and surreal contrast to some of the city's most famous and authentic local eats, which include Lau Sum Kee, Tim Ho Wan, and Kung Wo Tofu factory. 深水埗是香港最古老、最典型的本地社區之一，由於年輕一代的湧入而重新煥發活力，這個色彩斑斕的地區到處都是20世紀初的唐樓，還有熱鬧的跳蚤市場（鴨寮街），也是布料、皮革製品、電腦和配件的購物天堂。大量的時尚咖啡店和藝術設計店與本市最著名和最正宗的本地美食形成了鮮明的對比，這些美食包括劉森記麵家、添好運和公和荳品廠等等。

Kwun Tong 观塘

Kwun Tong was once an industrial heartland, featuring serried rows of iconic flatted factory buildings. These buildings have largely been replaced by spanking new glassy office skyscrapers facing the harbour. The area is now a hive of shopping centres, hip co-working spaces, indie music performance venues, boutique design shops and galleries, and new dining outlets. Start your trip at the Kwun Tong promenade, a nicely landscaped pedestrian boulevard looking across to Hong Kong Island.

觀塘曾經是香港的工業中心，以一排排標誌性的扁平廠房點綴而聞名。這些建築早已消失，取而代之的是面向海港的全新玻璃摩天大樓。該地區現在是購物中心、眾多時尚聯合辦公空間、獨立音樂表演場所、精品設計商店和畫廊以及新餐廳的聚集地。從觀塘海濱長廊開始您的旅程，沿着一條風景優美的步行大道前行，可俯瞰香港島。

封面故事

启德/九龙城

The massive redevelopment of the old Kai Tak Airport remains a work in progress. Still, the recent completion of the Kowloon City and Kai Tak MTR stations, on the Tuen Mun to Ma On Shan line, is accelerating the development pace. Already home to a slew of high-end residential developments and the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, Kai Tak will soon move up another gear with the completion of Kai Tak Sports Park, the city’s next mega project, which will nicely complement the adjoining Kowloon City, itself is a foodie haven for Thai and local cuisines plus noteworthy halal and lamb restaurants. Be sure to visit the site of historic Kowloon Walled City nearby, now a pleasant park.

Tsuen Wan 荃湾

This sprawling and diverse new town on the outskirts of the Kowloon urban area continues to reinvent itself, especially with the development of Tsuen Wan West along the waterfront over the last decade and the opening of the Mills, a revitalisation project that converted several textile mill buildings into an art and heritage centre. The completion of the Tsuen Wan phase of the New Territories Cycling Network further strengthens Tsuen Wan’s appeal. Places of interest include Sam Tung Uk Museum, Western Monastery, Tsuen Wan Park, the aforementioned Mills, and several large shopping malls including D-Park, Tsuen Wan Plaza, CityWalk, OP Mall, plus a plethora of restaurants and cafes to dine at. 這個以多元化服務而聞名的龐大新市鎮繼續自我改造中，尤其是在過去十年中，沿着海濱開發的荃灣西區，以及將幾座紡織廠大樓改造成藝術和文物中心的項目——南豐紗廠的開放。新界單車網荃灣期的落成，進一步增強了荃灣的吸引力。景點包括三棟屋博物館、西方寺、荃灣公園、上述的紡織廠，以及幾個大型購物中心，如愉景新城、荃灣廣場、荃新天地、海之戀商場，還有大量值得一吃的餐廳和咖啡館。

舊啟德機場的大規模重建工作仍在進行中。不過，作為屯門至馬鞍山線的一部分，最近建成的九龍城和啟德地鐵站肯定會加快其發展步伐。啟德已經有許多高端住宅和郵輪碼頭，隨着啟德體育園的建成，這裡將很快成為城市的最新焦點，這是城市的下一個大型項目，將很好地補充毗鄰的九龍城，而且這裡本身就是美食家的天堂，提供泰國和本地美食，還有幾個值得嚐嚐的清真牛肉館。記得參觀附近歷史悠久的九龍城寨，我們強烈推薦。

Yuen Long 元朗

itorie

While designated by the government as a New Town in the 1970s, Yuen Long grew slowly from its original market town due to inconvenient transport access. Transport gradually improved with completion of expressways, a light rail, culminating in completion of MTR West Rail. The development of YOHO Town in 2004 and the completion of YOHO Mall in 2015, plus relatively attractive property prices, have turned Yuen Long into the next large-scale new town development in the city. You can easily spend a whole day in Yuen Long appreciating all that it offers. Check out Ping Shan Heritage Trail, where scores of historic and heritage landmarks and villages are preserved, Long Ping Strawberry Farm where you can pick your own berries, the rustic Nam Shan Wai wetland sanctuary – perfect for bicycling, boutique coffee house like the Accro Coffee, and local eateries such as Hang Heung Bakery and Fat Kee Congee, Ho To Tai Noodle soup, and even an IMAX cinema at the YOHO Mall.

元朗於1970年代被政府指定為新市鎮，由於交通不便，元朗從原來的集鎮發展緩慢。隨着高速公路和輕軌的建成，交通逐漸得到改善，並隨着港鐵西鐵的建成而達到頂峰。 2004年 YOHO Town 的發展和2015年 YOHO Mall 的落成，加上相對有吸引力的樓價，讓元朗成為下一個大型新市鎮發展項目。您可以在元朗度過一整天，這裡各種設施齊全，包括保留下來的大量歷史遺產地標和屏山文物徑、可以自己採摘草莓、在南生圍濕地保護區騎自行車、在 Accro Coffee 等精品咖啡館品嚐咖啡、還有當地的恆香餅家、發記腸粉粥品、好到底面家等餐館，甚至還有 YOHO 購物中心的 IMAX 電影院。

Sai Kung Town 西贡市

The gateway to the great outdoors of Sai Kung, Sai Kung Town and its surrounding communities is undergoing steady change. Spearheaded by an upgrading of the highway leading into Sai Kung, both Pak Sha Wan and Sai Kung are seeing openings of chic cafes, restaurants and bars to accommodate new residents and visitors. The recently opened WM hotel along the town waterfront is drawing staycationers and outsiders alike. Old standby attractions, such as waterfront promenade and its public piers, Sai Kung Global Geopark Visitors Centre, seafood restaurants with live catch seafood, and kaito ferries to various outlying islands, remain as popular as ever. Sai King is a wonderful day trip, not to be missed. 作為通往西貢戶外活動的門戶，西貢市及其周邊社區正在發生穩定的變化。在通往西貢的公路改善工程的帶動下，白沙灣和西貢都開設了別緻的咖啡館、餐廳和酒吧，以接待遊客。新開業的 WM 酒店必將深受當地人和遊客歡迎。舊時的景點——海濱長廊和公共碼頭、西貢世界地質公園遊客中心、提供現場捕撈海鮮的海鮮餐廳，以及前往各個離島的快船渡輪，仍然很受歡迎。絕對是不容錯過的美妙一日遊。

香港的冬天大多溫暖。不過偶爾也會出現寒冷天氣，讓當地人有藉口穿上最新的冬季時尚服裝，在室內

潛水等等。氣溫通常在 15 到 25 攝氏度之間，天氣乾燥，事實上，冬天反而是盡情享受這座城市無數戶外活動的好時機，包括像一些經驗豐富且勇敢的冬泳者那樣在海裡泡一泡——我們不建議這樣做，不過除此之外依舊選擇多多。在香港受歡迎的冬季戶外活動範圍很廣，離島的一些極具挑戰性的小徑在夏天阻止無畏的徒步旅行者探索迷人的風景，冬天就可以去了；還可以享受廣闊的草坪公園，夏天太熱了冬季剛好，騎着自行車盡情享受，不會汗流浹背；還可以在擴張中的海濱長廊漫步。所以準備好，穿上合適的衣服，來看看香港提供的所有精彩的戶外活動吧！

Tung Lung Chau 东龙洲

Tap Mun (Grass Island) 塔门

This hidden gem, just off the Clearwater Bay Peninsula, is reachable only on weekends and public holidays and you are soon disconnected from the hustle and bustle of the city only minutes away. Near the popular rock climbing along its north-eastern coastline is an old, abandoned fort with a campsite adjacent.

As you step off the boat at this unspoilt island, you can almost feel time slowing down. Just off the Sai Kung Peninsula, Tap Mun’s traditional fishing village still ticks to the old rhythms of life. On an easy one-hour walk around the island you’ll see cows still roaming the fields and little fishing boats bobbing nearby. There are a few stores and restaurants: be sure to try the fried rice with local sea urchin roe.

這個位於西貢清水灣半島附近的原始島嶼，是一顆真正隱藏的寶石。只有在周末和公眾假期才能去，東龍島以沿東北海岸線的攀岩而聞名，還有個廢棄的舊堡壘和營地。風景優美的步道提供了暢通無阻的海景和半島景色。用不了多久，你就會從幾分鐘車程外的城市喧囂中脫離出來。

Catch the ferry from Sai Wan Ho at the pier inside Aldrich Bay Typhoon Shelter near Grand Promenade or at Sam Ka Tsuen Ferry Pier in Lei Yue Mun. 可在西灣河的愛秩序灣避風塘內的碼頭或鯉魚門的三家村碼頭搭乘渡輪。

如果您想參觀一個完全未受破壞的島嶼和漁村，這個位於西貢半島附近的小島很偏僻，但非常值得一遊。當您下船時，幾乎可以感覺到時間變慢了，因為塔門的傳統漁村仍然保持着古老的生活節奏。一小時就可步行環島。一路上會看到奶牛仍在田野裡吃草，小漁船在附近漂浮。島上有幾家商店和餐館，推薦當地海膽子炒飯。

Either take a ferry from Ma Liu Shui or catch a bus from Sai Kung town to Wong Shek Pier for the 30-minute kaito ferry ride to the island, and back. 可以從馬料水搭乘渡輪，或從西貢市區搭乘巴士前往黃石碼頭，搭乘渡輪 30 分鐘即可到達島上，然後同路線返回。

Yim Tin Tsai 盐田梓 Another charming islet off Sai Kung Peninsula, next to Kau Sai Chau with its three picturesque public golf courses, Yim Tin Tsai is accessible by kaito ferry from Sai Kung town centre.

Mount Austin (or Victoria Peak) is the highest point on Hong Kong Island. While the Peak area around the Peak Tower and the Galleria is a must-see, an extra hike up Mount Austin Road reveals a tranquil Victorian garden sitting almost atop the mountain. Landscaped with lush lawns, gardens, pagodas and colonnades, the view is unparalleled.

柯士甸山或太平山頂是香港島上最高的山峰。雖然凌霄閣和廣場所在的山頂地區是大多數人來參觀的地方，但您可以探索點不一樣的，沿着柯士甸山道一直走到山頂，您會發現一個寧靜的花園。維多利亞風格的花園風景優美，擁有鬱鬱蔥蔥的草坪、古樸的花園、寶塔和柱廊；從那裡俯瞰島嶼南側的景色無與倫比。

Cycling

骑自行车 Winter is a great time to go cycling in Hong Kong – enjoying the scenery without working up a sweat, and so many fantastic routes to choose from. 冬天可以說是在香港騎自行車的最佳時間 - 享受風景，不會太勞累，也無需汗水，而且還有許多奇妙的路線可供選擇。

Nam Sang Wai 南生围 This idyllic and picturesque ecological treasure is best enjoyed by bike. The 20-kilometre ride through the mangroves and marshes starts from nearby Yuen Long MTR Station where you can rent bikes. Take care as you cross several minor roads. For a longer ride and more ecological sightseeing, join the cycle track at Yuen Long and head to Hong Kong Wetland Park in Tin Shui Wai. 這裡是香港最具田園風光的地方之一，騎自行車遊覽南生圍是一種享受和放鬆。從元朗地鐵站出發，可租用單車前往附近，全程約20公里。到了南生圍要穿過紅樹林和沼澤，過小路時要小心。如您想騎久一點，可加入元朗的單車網徑，前往位於天水圍的香港濕地公園，欣賞更多生態景觀。

The dining awards were organised by Asia Art of Cuisine Society, which rewards restaurants for their cooking skills, creativity, service quality and food dressing.

They include the 8-course Masterchef Wine-pairing Menu ($888 person with 4 glasses of wine, minimum 2 persons) from Chinese restaurants Regal Palace and Regal Court; the 7-course Masterchef Winepairing Menu ($568 per person with 3 glasses of wine, minimum 2 persons) from Chinese restaurant Dragon Inn, the 4-course Masterchef Wine-pairing Menu ($638 per person; add $250 for 4 glasses of wine) from Italian Restaurant Mezzo; and the 5-course Master Chef Winepairing Menu ($438 per person with two glasses of wine; minimum 2 persons) from Vietnamese restaurant Vi.

All is well at wellwellwell!

堪稱完美的「wellwellwell」

We sampled beloved Southern China home cooking dishes at Auntie AYI, the space-age flagship dining area at the newly opened wellwellwell, the city’s latest culinary destination. 我們在代表「鄉井」的 Auntie ĀYI 品嚐了心愛的華南家常菜，這家新開業的 wellwellwell 下的旗艦餐飲店，是本市最新的美食目的地。

Auntie ĀYI’s Ice Cream Sundae 涼粉雪糕新地

he opening of wellwellwell at the swanky Pacific Place Mall represents the latest milestone in the city’s ever-evolving dining concepts and a much-welcome addition to the city’s dining landscape. Occupying a large, prominent area at Pacific Place’s dining hub on the lower ground floor, wellwellwell is a multiconcept dining venue that seeks to recapture the nostalgic Hong Kong/Southern China cuisine, albeit reimagined with a modern interpretation. Three different brands representing three eclectic dining concepts in the spacious area. The open area at the entry is divided into City Well – a refined cha chaan teng–style restaurant that recreates a lively marketplace, Water Well – a casual bar and snack setup destined to be a popular watering hole, and thirdly, the Home Well or Auntie ĀYI, the heart of wellwellwell that celebrates the home kitchens of yesteryear and pays homage to the history of the legendary Ma Jie. The first of the dining brands to launch, Auntie ĀYI, has a design that is space age, literally and figuratively. The outlet’s spaceship setting is striking, as sleek, semipartitioned tables and plush sofa seating with recessed lighting offer a stunning dining venue for guests. For our meal, we sampled some of Auntie ĀYI’s classic dishes. We started with the 8 Immortals Drunken Platter ($108/person) – a collection of tasty, cold appetisers marinated in Chinese Baiju and Huangju wines. A velvety smooth and sweet-tasting Double-boiled Sea Coconut Soup with Fish Maw ($128/person) was next, followed by a house specialty, Char Siu with Silky Eggs and Coriander Cheong Fun ($98), a traditionally made rice roll using handpulled rice sheets with a semi-permeable cloth.

www.hkcitylife.com | JANUARY 2022

Then came the signature Auntie ĀYI’s Sesame Candy Chicken ($688), in which local free-range chicken is baked, its skin coated in sesame candy covering to yield a crispy skin and juicy chicken meat. The presentation of the dish is also lovely, as the meat is arranged meticulously in the form of a flying phoenix. The next dish, XinJiang “Lamb” Skewers ($238), is a pleasant departure, with the tender lamb meat seasoned and grilled just to the right texture and tenderness. Another new dish that captured our palate was Angus Beef with Runny Egg Yolk Claypot Rice ($218) in which the angus beef cooked in the clay pot enhances the rice’s aroma; a secret soy sauce recipe further adds to the flavour of the cooked rice, which is cooked almost to a sizzle. The delightful and filling meal ended with Auntie ĀYI’s Ice Cream Sundae ($88). We should mention that to complement its nostalgic menu, Auntie ĀYI will be serving a collection of Alcoholic and Non-Alcoholic Drinks, including a wide selection of Seasonal Cocktails, some of which use Chinese Shaoxing wine, and even Chinese baiju for the adventurous, in addition to a menu of healthy Chinese hot drinks perfect for the winter. We are confident that, led by Auntie ĀYI, wellwellwell will soon be the talk of the town. There is much to like – excellent location, unforgettable and space-age ambience and tasty home-cooking dishes worth going back in time for. We strongly suggest you give wellwellwell and specifically Auntie ĀYI a try.■

Can Lah ($$$$)

Since its opening, Can Lah at the ifc mall in Central has become a popular choice for down-home, hawker style Singaporean cuisine, albeit in a refined setting. Helmed by well-known Singaporean Chef Francis Chong Wui Choong, with over three decades of culinary experience, including 20 years at the famous Long Beach Seafood Restaurant in Singapore renowned for its black pepper crab, Can Lah offers an authentic Singaporean dining experience, including ingredients and secret sauces imported from Singapore. Can Lah also feature a Chef’s Table Singmakase, a select offering of proprietary dishes created by Chef Chong and served in an exclusive private dining room. The décor of the restaurant is open and bright, resonating with its contemporary ethic; its centrepiece is the open-air lounge offering panoramic views of Victoria Harbour. The name Can Lah – a popular phrase in Singlish, the local Singaporean English dialect – captures the can-do spirit of the restaurant. Our meal began with a generously portioned and yummy Malaysian Satay Skewers Platter, Pork, Beef, Chicken ($128), followed by Hand-minced Deep Fried Shrimp Roll ($68). Next came a real treat – Chong’s Signature Crab ($538) with Add-on Butter Toast ($28). The spicy crab is cooked in a Sarawak black pepper and Can Lah’s signature white pepper, lemongrass Kam Heong sauce,

and golden salted egg yolk sauce. Another Chef Chong’s specialty dish is Crab Beef Hoon ($598) for which a big, succulent crab is simmered for over eight hours in a milk broth infused with more crab and chicken and served in a clay pot – absolutely yummy. For good measure we also had the Hainanese Chicken ($198/half; $388/ whole) – the chicken is so tender and the rice infused with chicken oil is aromatic and yummy, as is the garnishing. Our dessert was Coconut Pudding & Mango Sago in Fresh Coconut ($98); drinks we chose include Iced Lemongrass Ginger Water with Grass Jelly ($42), Air Mata Kucing, Iced Buddha’s Fruit, Longan & Dried Winter Melon ($42), and The Tarak (hot/ iced) ($38), a popular local tea drink. If you are in the mood for authentic and tasty Singaporean down-home food, Can Lah is your go-to option. Give it a try – it’s highly worth it.

HISTORY MATTERS

香江史料

THE BIRTH OF THE PENINSULA 半島酒店傳奇

The Peninsula Hotel has entertained the military – and the odd monarch 著名的半島酒店曾經招待過軍隊——還有脾氣古怪的國王。

ight-and-a-half years after work had begun on The Peninsula Hotel, it finally opened its doors to guests on 11 December 1928. It had been scheduled to open in 1924, but there were many delays including the unexpected presence of ground water, and it became necessary to sink 600 piles to prop up the foundations. In 1927, when it was ready for occupation, the hotel was commandeered by the British Army, and the Coldstream Guards and the Devonshire Regiment moved in. There had been riots in Hong Kong the previous year and a civil war was raging in China. These two distinguished British regiments proudly carry the name "Peninsula" as a battle honour on their regimental colours. The honour was awarded to them for their gallantry during the Peninsular War when they helped the Iron Duke smash the armies of Napoleon and not for wrecking the interior of the Peninsula Hotel a century later. Such was the damage they caused that after the army left a complete renovation was needed. The hotel’s chief engineer Clifton Triggs recalled

www.hkcitylife.com | JANUARY 2022

“We had to rebuild it!” It was in the bathrooms where the most of the damage occurred. Every bathtub had to be replaced. “They must have kept their guns in them!” said Triggs. Nine months after the troops left there was a grand opening ceremony. The South China Morning Post wrote: “The furnishings and interior decorations were exceedingly attractive and it seemed that no effort had been spared to provide guests with everything that might be desired. To speak of one instance alone, there are no fewer than five grand pianos in the building.” About the only person who was not enthusiastic about the opulent splendour of the hotel was the Acting Governor, Thomas Southorn, who performed the opening ceremony. In his speech he remarked: “Opinions may differ as to the architecture and decoration: some may prefer a Spartan simplicity, some the sumptuousness of an eastern palace - but there can be no two opinions as to the arrangements made for the hygienic cleanliness of the hotel and everything connected with it.” Southern, who had pretensions to culture, was probably afraid of what Virginia Woolf, who

半島酒店從動工建業開始，整整花了八年半，時間終於在 1928 年 12 月 11 日

正式落成啟用，酒店原定於 1924 年開幕，卻因種種原因速度延期。包括地基竟意外出現下水，需要把 600 根椿柱打進地基加固。

1927 年，酒店原已可以啟用，卻被英軍陸軍徵用。結果進駐酒店的乃是寒流警衛軍團和德文郡軍團。前一年香港曾發生暴動，而中國大陸的內戰則正打的熱烈。這兩個戰績彪炳的英國軍團的徽章上，赫然可見「半島」二字的戰功標記。但其實是軍團在半島戰爭期間表現勇猛，鐵血公爵成功擊潰拿破崙，故被授予戰功。而非紀念軍團在百年後大鬧半島酒店。但軍團進駐確實對酒店內部帶來了嚴重破壞，以至酒店必須徹底重新裝修，酒店的總工程師 Clifton Triggs 事後回憶道：「我們要將之重建！」損壞最嚴重的地方是浴室，每個浴缸都要更換。 Triggs 說，他們肯定是帶着槍砲洗澡的。軍團離去後九個月，酒店舉行了盛大的開幕典禮，南華早報寫到：酒店的內部裝潢極為吸引，看來酒店不遺餘力地想為住客提供一切最好的設施。茲舉一例，酒店內最少有五台鋼琴。

was his wife’s sister-in-law, would say if he lavished praise on the old fashioned decor. Fate has a way of punishing intellectual snobs: the unlovely Southorn Playground in Wanchai is named after the Acting Governor.

唯一對酒店華麗裝潢不感興趣者，是主持開幕儀式的署理港督修頓。在致辭時他說，「就建築和裝修而論，意見未必一致。有些人寧取斯巴達是簡潔，有些人再喜歡東方宮殿的奢華。但論到酒店，在所有關乎衛生整潔方面的安排，那倒是沒話說的」。

The hotel’s splendid plumbing was not however to everybody’s taste even though every bedroom had its own bathroom and lavatory. Distinguished guests, such as the last Emperor of Ethiopia, sometimes made strange demands. His Imperial Majesty Haile Selassie, the Lion of Judah and Emperor of Ethiopia, was a direct descendent of The Queen of Sheba. He stayed at the Peninsula in the 1950s.

擁有文化修養的修頓未敢過度稱讚酒店的古典裝潢，或是因為怕愛妻的好姐妹，英國著名作家伍爾夫會對之有微言。但命運有時真會捉弄文人雅士，位於灣仔毫不起眼的修頓球場，正是以這為署理港督的名字命名。

When an emperor graces your hotel with his imperial presence, his every whim is your command. Leo Gaddi, the manager of the Peninsula, was anxious to please. When he received an imperial command to replace the Western-style lavatories, he was rather surprised, but willingly obliged. With ruthless efficiency the hotel’s contractors ripped out the British flush toilets and replaced them with the Asian variety. Work was completed just in time for the royal visit. As the Emperor had taken the whole of the sixth floor the logistics were horrendous. Even so, “Operation Prester John”, named after the legendary King of Abyssinia, took only two days. It is reported that the Lion of Judah had a comfortable stay.■

半島酒店的每個房間都設有浴室和衛生間，卻不是所有人都會欣賞其中的豪華設備，尊貴住客如埃塞俄比亞末代國王便曾就此提出過一些奇怪的要求。 Selassie 被尊稱為「猶大雄獅」，即使還在俄比亞國王，也是所羅門跟希巴女王的直系子孫。這位國王陛下曾於 1950 年代下榻半島酒店。國王大駕光臨酒店，陛下的聖旨必然是遵從。所以當時半島酒店的總經理 Leo Gaddi ，絕對可稱得上是畢恭畢敬，唯恐龍顏大怒，當他預先收到皇室只是說要換掉酒店房間內西式衛生間時， Gaddi 大吃一驚，卻還是依旨行事。酒店的工程人員結果以超高效率把英式的沖水坐廁換成亞洲式樣，國王抵達時，工程剛好完成。國王同時包下了六樓全層，讓酒店職員忙的不亦樂乎。儘管如此，此次別名「 Prester John 」行動的招待，實際上只為期兩天。據說「猶大雄獅」在半島酒店還住的挺舒適。■

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

‘On Your Mart’ at Art of Nature Contemporary Gallery Until 23 Jan With the familiar slogan “On Your Mart” as the theme, this exhibition conveys the artists’ vigour, enthusiasm, and spirit. The displayed works include sculptures, installation art, paintings, prints and various playful art toys and products. The works showcase the personal concepts and perspectives of the 12 artists, each derived from popular culture. The exhibition setting and works respond to this generation’s daily life experience and the status quo of the art circle with joy and liveliness, engaging the audience with a strong visual aesthetic. The exhibition aims to make contemporary art a quotidian part of the lives of the non-gallery going public and especially for the “Mart series” exhibition to resonate with the younger generation. Room 1-6, 21/F, Mega Trade Centre, 1 Mei Wan St, Tsuen Wan, NT (Exit A3, Tsuen Wan MTR Station); Monday to Friday, 10am – 7pm Saturday, 12 noon – 7pm Sunday and public holidays by appointment only; 2416 3632

One who holds the title is commonly addressed as Rimpoche (‘Precious Jewel’) and counted in the Tibetan tradition as a lama or a guru (spiritual guide). As embodiments of boundless compassion and beneficence, tulkus willingly take on recurring births in order to spread out their good acts and thus benefit as many sentient beings as possible with each reincarnation. 3C Yally Industrial Building, 6 Yip Fat Street, Aberdeen, Hong Kong Island; Tue-Sat: 11am-6pm; 3575 9417

‘Jubilee-Exhibition “10 Years Art Supermarket”’ at Art Supermarket Until 26 Feb In the past 10 years, Hong Kong art gallery Art Supermarket has passed various milestones presenting fabulous exhibitions by a selection of outstanding artists.

PARTING THOUGHTS

思考之窗

Waiting for Sigma and more 2022 New Year Wishes T

he arrival of a new year signals hope and renewal, something the world needs more than ever. While many countries are still being ravaged by the Covid-19 pandemic, now in its umpteenth variant – Omicron being the latest menace, there is hope on the horizon that, just maybe, we are beginning to see the light at the end of the proverbial long tunnel. To be fair, on pandemic metrics, Hong Kong has fared much better than most places. Thanks to strict border control restrictions and highly effective contact tracing measures, not to mention a uber-diligent, mask-compliant citizenry wary of the virus, Covid impact on the health of Hong Kong has been minimal. The bubble we’ve created has shielded us well. Alas, there is a price to pay for maintaining such as a leakproof bubble, and that is the (uneven) impact it has had on the city’s economy. Particularly hard hit have been the travel, hospitality, conferencing and events industries, plus businesses involved in their supply chains, all of which are important components of the Hong Kong economy. Recovery of these industries is only possible if we remove the bubble wrapped so tightly around the city. Yet, as Covid continues unabated elsewhere, how can that happen when it effectively means removing the travel restrictions and quarantine protocols? And especially when our pending reciprocal travel arrangements with China depend on Hong Kong’s keeping practically any community case from occurring, a threshold so high that it may encourage even tighter measures to keep international travellers at bay? And therein lies the conundrum we face – how to do away with the bubble and enable life to return to normal without having Covid run amok amongst the populace. Heretofore, Hong Kong could thankfully avoid such a choice since the world at large had the same problem, and international travel was highly restricted pretty much everywhere. That has started to change as more and more countries are easing travel restrictions as their populations gain significant immunity either through vaccination or naturally from prior infection; the gathering consensus that Covid will be with us indefinitely in some form has also helped these countries to accept the notion they have to live with the disease, not eradicate it – transitioning from

www.hkcitylife.com | JANUARY 2022

pandemic to endemic, as the jargon goes. At some point, when most countries resume normal international travel, the pressure on our own international business and finance hub to remove the bubble will inevitably increase. Yet, since Hong Kong has never had a significant outbreak to speak of, we are not transitioning to an endemic state, but needing to create one, from scratch. It’s not clear how a populace as insulated as Hong Kong’s can live with an endemic virus, which means living with a steady stream of Covid cases – including some deaths, one assumes. It is hard to predict how Hong Kong people will react, having invested two years in avoiding just such a scenario. It’s a tough problem, all right. One way out of the conundrum facing Hong Kong may be to wait for the virus itself to change. Preliminary data coming out of South Africa, the UK and elsewhere suggest that successive variants of Covid-19 may become milder and less lethal. While Omicron is probably too nasty for us to willingly let in, posing more of a threat than Hong Kong people could live with, perhaps if we wait for a few more mutations, we’ll be dealing with a variant mild enough for us to accept – like a seasonal flu. By the Greek alphabet, which is how these variants are named, the next few are Pi, Rho, and Sigma. So, when and if a Sigma variant arrives, it may just be mild enough to be our panacea, allowing Hong Kong to open up without causing panic, and restoring the city’s status as a global gateway known for free movement of people and limitless connectivity, as those harshly affected industries get their chance to rise again. If that is the path we must take, Sigma can’t come soon enough, and its arrival will fulfil everyone’s new year wishes. A further hopeful wish is that, with time, the people of Hong Kong will gradually shed their collective fear of the pandemic, and psychologically readjust to normal life – not risk-free, but accepting and coping with adversities, including another endemic virus. To the extent we can do that, the auguries for 2022 may be the best for several years indeed!■
