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

We welcome our visitors this month with a double happiness greeting: Happy New Year and Kung Hei Fat Choy! What a way to kick off a new decade! For 2020, the Lunar New Year falls in January, which means Hong Kong will be celebrating both the new years with gusto this month. The highlight is undoubtedly Lunar (Chinese) New Year, the most important holiday in Hong Kong and other Chinese communities worldwide. Over the fourday holiday period from 25 January, locals will observe a host of celebratory customs. The city itself goes into a festive mode, topped by the Cathay Pacific International Chinese New Year Carnival, which features festive installations, daily parade performances, food booths, entertainment and a web AR game. There are other festive events and customs you will want to experience, including visiting the flower markets on Chinese New Year’s Eve, seeking good fortune at Wong Tai Sin Temple, or visiting the iconic wishing tree at Lam Tsuen. Please check out our cover story on page 10 for more details.

You’ll doubtless want to take home souvenirs for friends, family and loved ones. As Asia’s shopping mecca, with countless shops and malls to explore, finding the right souvenirs can be daunting. If you are looking for just the right Hong Kong souvenirs, check out our article on page 14 on the ultimate Hong Kong souvenir guide.

And while you are out shopping, be sure to take advantage of all the outstanding offers in the Flash Sale On promotion citywide – you can pick up a great souvenir and save money at the same time.

Several high-profile sporting events take place this January. The Hong Kong Open, Asia’s oldest professional golf tournament, has been rescheduled to this month. The Vibram Hong Kong 100km Ultra Trail Race is also being held this month, as elite trail racers test their physical limits on Hong Kong’s picturesque and mountainous trails.

A slew of musical performances are lined up this month in the city. Don’t miss a rare performance by the National Folkloric Dance Troupe of Egypt who will showcase traditional Egyptian dancing – an essential component of the country’s rich cultural heritage.

Superstar pianist Lang Lang joins up with conductor Jaap van Zweden of Hong Kong Phil for a special concert to celebrate the 250th anniversary of Ludwig van Beethoven’s birth.

LITTLE SHOP OF PHOTOS 照相館小史

Hong Kong's early photographers had to work hard to take a picture, writes Arthur Hacker

1

P

hotography today is ubiquitous. We each carry at least a mobile phone with a camera, and often a compact digital camera or classic SLR. However, in Victorian Hong Kong, owning a camera was comparatively rare as they were not only very expensive but also extremely difficult to operate.

When John Thomson went on a photographic safari to China in the 1870s, he needed 18 coolies to carry his equipment. ln this digital age of autofocus, auto-exposure and miniaturisation, not to mention the super-convenient point-andshoot phone camera, it is difficult to envisage the problems faced those photographic pioneers.

In Hong Kong at the time, picture postcards were not even available. So how did tourists cope? The answer is that they bought photographs taken by professional photographers.

In 1860, two Americans, a Mr Weed and a Mr Howard opened a shop in Hong Kong selling photographs. Inadvertently they established a curiosity that became known as "The Firm". lt was not a firm at all, but a collection of photographic negatives. ln 1861, the partners sold their stock to their manager Milton J. Miller.

Miller's portraits of Chinese Mandarins and their families are quite brilliant. He later acquired

some negatives of Peking from Felix Beato, who had photographed the battlefields of the Arrow War. Miller, Thomson, and Beato are regarded as the three great Victorian photographers of the Far East. ln 1864, Miller moved on and ownership of the operation passed first to his former associate S. W. Halsey, then to a J. A. de Silveira. Later, The Firm was owned by Thomson and William Pryor Floyd. lt operated out of the Victoria Photographic Gallery, at 62 Queen's Road, approximately where Lane Crawford department store stood, until it changed to Zara a few years ago. ln those days, photographs were printed from glass negatives. Photographic dealers like Floyd and Hong Kong's leading Chinese photographer, Afong Lai, sold prints in their shops. Customers selected the pictures they liked, together with an exotic Japanese lacquered photo album, and the shopkeeper pasted the result into the album, often in no seemingly logical order.

Thomson sold many of his negatives to Floyd when he departed Hong Kong in 1871.

As the most famous Hong Kong photographer of the period, his work is particularly valued by collectors. After several more owners, The Firm's negatives are thought to have passed

今相機無處不在，無論是獨立相機還是 如 帶有相機的手機，擁有相機十分正常並

且是理所應當。在維多利亞時代，照相機卻是非 常貴重的東西 , 加上操作殊不容易 , 故擁有照相機 的人並不常見°

1870年代，約翰．湯姆森（John Thomson） 到中國進行攝影之旅時，他需要18名苦力來搬運 裝備。在這個自動對焦，自動曝光、連單反相機 都超便捷的數字時代，很難想像攝影先驅面臨的 問題。 當年的香港，就連風景名信片也還未出現。 遊客該如何是好？笞案是：遊人會購買專業攝影 師拍攝的照片。 一八六零年，有位韋特先生利一位侯活先 生，合作在香港開設了一家售賣照相機的店鋪。 不知不覺間，他們累積了一堆珍貴藏品，後人稱 之為「公司」。那當然不是一家公司，而是一系 列的照像負片。一八六一年，兩人把珍臧賣了給 彌爾頓．米勒 (Milton J, Miller)。 米勒為不少清朝官員及家眷拍攝了許多出 色的照片。他後來從菲利克斯．貝亞托 (Felix Beato) 手上，取得一批北京的照片。貝亞托曾用 照相機，紀錄了鴉片戰爭的戰場景況。米勒`湯姆 遜和貝亞托，均名列維多利亞時代活躍於遠東區 的三位偉大攝影家之內。 一八六四年，米勒將「公司」賣了給赫爾 塞 (S.W.Halsey) ，後者再將之轉讓給希爾維拉 (J.A.de SiIveira)。其後湯姆遜和威廉．佛洛伊德

into the hands of Lai, whose company survived until World War Two.

(WiIIiam Pryor Floyd) 擁有了「公司」，就在中環的連卡佛百貨公司附近，幾年 前改為了 Zara。

Photography was a hazardous business in those days.

Thomson relates that the Chinese looked upon having their picture taken as: "Some black art, which at the same time bereft the individual depicted of so much of the principal of life as to render his death a certainty within a short period of years." There was also a popular theory that camera lenses were made out of babies' eyes. Consequenily, photographers were liable to be attacked by superstitious mobs.

那年頭，沖印照片用的是玻璃負片。像佛洛伊德般的照片商人，以至當時本 港著名攝影家 Afong Lai，都會在自己的店鏑內售賣所沖印的照片。顧客會先選 定喜歡的照片，和富於異國情調的東瀛漆皮相簿，然後店員便會把照片貼在相簿 內，但並不會按特定規則安排次序。

Adding to the difficulty was the collodion wet-plate process that was used at the time. lt required a glass plate negative to be sensitised and developed within a few minutes in total darkness.

Getting the chemicals just right created even more problems. On a visit to Taiwan, Thomson described how the water was so alkaline on the island that he had to "employ a goodly supply of Chinese vinegar to turn it slightly on the acid side".

當年，攝影是一門很危險的生意。據湯姆遜說，中國人常以力一旦被拍下照 片，便「等同中了降頭，被拍攝者的生命力會被攝走，不消數年定一命嗚呼」。 還有流摶甚廣的一個說法，指照相機鏡頭乃用嬰孩眼睛製造，故攝影師往往會被 聽信流言的人群起攻之。

The final pictures were printed from the glass plates on thin plain paper sensitised with a silver nitrate solution and coated with a layer of egg white and salt solution. All the pictures illustrating this article were produced by this method and are known as albumen prints.■

湯姆遜在一八七一年離開香港前，把許多負片賣了給佛洛伊德．湯姆遜是當 時香港最著名的攝影家，收藏者對其作品都珍而重之。佛洛伊德在一八七四年將 「公司」賣予魯斯費爾特 (Email RustfeIdt)，該批負片據說輾轉塔入 Afong Lai 手中；Afong Lai 的店子一直經苜至二次大戰爆發。

攝影師當年面對的另一難題，是使用羅甸濕版沖印照片的過程。那必須在完 全漆黑的環境下，讓玻璃負片感光並即場沖洗。單是化學藥品調校正確的劑量， 便已教人大傷腦筋。湯姆遜描述當年他到訪台灣時，就曾面對過島上水質鹼性過 高的問題，幸得「天賜唐醋之助，才能稍稍將之中和」。 沖印照片的最後步驟，是把玻璃負片上的影像，印到一張以硝酸銀溶液作感 光劑，並以蛋白混和鹽液作塗層的懣紙上去。這兒刊登的所有插圖，都是以此方 法印製，一般稱為蛋白照片。■

Wish-making at Lam Tsuen Wishing Trees 黃到林村许愿树抛宝牒 During Chinese New Year and other festivals, many Hongkongers pay a visit to the Lam Tsuen Wishing Trees. Traditionally, people would write their wishes on joss paper and throw it onto the tree after paying their respects.

It’s believed that the wishes will come true if the joss paper doesn’t fall from the tree. Due to their popularity, the trees were at risk of being drowned in paper, so nowadays wishes are made by tying joss paper to nearby wooden racks or imitation trees. 每逢過年過節，很多香港人會到林村的許願樹前參拜許願，並將寶牒拋上許願 樹（為了保護許願樹，現在以仿真許願樹取代）。你也可以探訪這個喜氣洋洋 的村落，把願望寫在寶牒上，並繫上重物，誠心參拜後將它拋到樹上，不跌下 來就代表願望可成真。

F

ans of multicultural music performances are in for a special treat as the National Folkloric Dance Troupe of Egypt, a renowned organization representing the Egyptian Government worldwide in cultural exchange, will be performing in Hong Kong in early 2020 as part of its 60th anniversary celebrations.

Music and dance are an integral part of Egyptian culture, evolved over 7000 years in one of the oldest civilizations in human history. In fact, the popular Belly Dance (traditional Raks Sharqi) has its roots in Egyptian Folklore Dance of which it is but one variation. Egyptian Folklore Dance, which is rich in colourful culture and history, is an ancient art form that features many different dance styles. The dance itself consists of movements that interpret melodies in the music and spring from the soul to unite its participants in a common bond.

Be sure to mark your calendar and treat yourself to this enchanting dance performance and perhaps enhance your appreciation of this venerable cultural heritage with its roots in the dawn of human society.

埃 及國家民俗舞蹈團是舉世聞名的組織，代表埃及政府在全球各地 進行文化交流。 2020年是舞蹈團成立60週年，她們將來香港作 首演，喜歡多元音樂文化的觀眾有機會大飽眼福。

埃及是人類歷史上最古老的文明之一，有着 7000 多年的歷史，音樂 和舞蹈是埃及文化的一部分。實際上，流行的肚皮舞（傳統的 Raks Sharqi ）起源於埃及民俗舞蹈，是其中一種風格。埃及民俗舞歷史源 遠流長，文化底蘊深厚；這種古老的藝術形式，擁有多種不同的舞蹈 風格。舞蹈本身的動作盡情詮釋音樂，來自靈魂深處的靈感將舞蹈者 聯繫在一起，形成一種紐帶，帶動全場。 記得將這個活動加在日曆上，享受迷人的舞蹈表演，欣賞歷史感厚重的 古老文化遺產。

Rùn 潤 2/F, The St. Regis Hong Kong, 1 Harbour Road, Wanchai, Hong Kong 香港灣仔港灣徑 1 號 香港瑞吉酒店2樓

2138 6808

marriott.com

A newly minted Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant and a Nordic restaurant created by a celebrated chef highlight our gourmet journey this month. 新開張的米其林星級中餐廳和由著名廚師創辦的北歐餐廳，是我們本月美食之旅的目的地。

T

he recently opened St. Regis Hong Kong has taken the hospitality industry by storm, for not only its exquisite design but also its outstanding F&B outlets – its French restaurant L’Envol and Chinese establishment Rùn have both won praise from local foodies. Just last month, L’Envol and Rùn were each awarded the coveted 1-Star Michelin Award after opening for just a few months, a testament to their culinary excellence.

Since double-boiled soup is Rùn’s speciality, we opted to share three different soups. The Doubledboiled Abalone Soup, Kelp, Goji, Baby Coconut ($388 per person) is velvety smooth with a yummy light sweet taste; Braised Snake Soup, Fish Maw, Fungus ($348 per person) is excellent and perfect for the winter, and so is Braised Lamb Brisket, White Pepper, Chinese Herbs ($188 per person) which is quite warming. You can tell Chef Hung has mastered the soup-making technique.

Our choice this time is Rùn, the Chinese restaurant.

Rùn serves Cantonese cuisine, including a full complement of dim sum dishes during lunch. Rùn’s menu is devised by Hong Kong–born Executive Chef Hung Chi-Kwong, who has extensive executive experience at several acclaimed Chinese restaurants in Hong Kong.

Chef Hung is known for his mastery and contemporary interpretation of Cantonese cuisine – notably braised dried foods, seafood and double-boiled soups, which imbues Rùn’s cooking philosophy in this new endeavour.

We tried several more excellent dishes: Pan-fried Japanese Scallop, Champagne Sauce ($228); Panfried Bean Curd Shrimp Mousse, Morel Mushroom, Bamboo Fungus ($228) – a refreshing vegetable dish; and Roasted Salted Crispy Chicken (Half-piece) ($298).

The skin of the chicken is baked to golden crispy, its taste is absolutely delicious, as is the savoury, tender meat – a real treat!

Rùn’s design is a modern take on the architecture of a traditional Chinese tea pavilion. Its lighting fixtures take after classic Chinese lanterns housed in moulded glass cubes and bronze, adding to the elegance of the restaurant.

Our visit was to sample some of Rùn’s signature and more popular dishes. For appetisers, we tried Marinated Smoked Foie Gras ($198), a delicious way of fixing the foie gras; Deep-fried Lobster Spring Roll, Black Truffle Sauce (3 pcs) ($168), in which the skin is crispy and crunchy while the lobster meat remains tender and succulent; and Barbequed Iberico Pork, Honey ($368) with tender and flavourful meat.

We wrapped up our meal with Fried Vermicelli, Crab Meat, Shredded Pork, Egg ($288) and a choice of desserts, all of which comprise quite a meal in themselves.

Rùn also offers a Tea-pairing menu for lovers of Chinese tea guided by a certified tea sommelier. Be sure to ask for the details if you are interested.

We were truly impressed with the quality of the food at Rùn; it’s destined to be one of those dining hotspot that you can’t afford not to know. So for a memorable Cantonese meal while you are in Hong Kong, and to keep ahead of the curve, be sure to give Rùn a try.■

N

ordic cuisine has long been on our culinary bucket list. So when Frantzén’s Kitchen, a cosy Swedish bistro tucked away in the trendy Sheung Wan neighbourhood above Hollywood Road, was recommended to us as a worthwhile place to visit, we jumped at the opportunity.

The restaurant is the brainchild of celebrated Swedish 3-Michelin-Starred chef Bjorn Frantzén, who operates the highly acclaimed Frantzén Restaurant in Stockholm, Frantzén’s Kitchen offers a relaxed and intimate setting in which diners can enjoy a curated menu created by Chef Frantzén and his Hong Kong executive head chef Jim Lodahl.

The restaurant offers two distinct dining ambiences – an open kitchen counter for casual dining and a comfortable dining room for more intimate dining occasions. A friendly feature is a printed menu that serves as a placemat, with each dish neatly illustrated, complete with description of its ingredients.

Frantzén’s Kitchen offers both tasting and à la carte menus. For our dinner, we chose the restaurant’s 9-course Tasting Menu ($1,188). There are two wine-pairing options: 4-glass pairing ($688) or 7-glass pairing ($888). We wisely chose the former as it turned out the pour was quite generous.

Two snacks got our dinner started, together with a glass of NV Champagne Thienot from Reims: Roasted Onion Chawanmushi, oxtail jus and vendace roe, and French Toast Truffle – balsamic vinegar, aged cheese and truffle tea, a signature concoction of chef Frantzén’s. Both are bite-sized, and we particularly like the rollercoaster taste experience of the French Toast with its mix of cheese, truffle and the vinegar flavours.

Next came three more starters: Pumpkin, Broccolini, Truffle, pumpkin and hazelnut granola, truffle vinaigrette and vasterbotten cheese; Cold Poached King Crab, tomato and peach ceviche, black pepper, almond emulsion, wasabi and ginger; and Tartare of Te Mana Lamb, black garlic,

cucumber, caviar and pistou. All three dishes were new to us and tasted superb. We liked the citric flavour of the king crab meat, which comes with a zesty and slightly spicy bite. The lamb tartare was also a treat as the savoury caviar blends well with the tartare. For the wine, we had a 2017 Domaine Ostertag “Fronholz” Riesling, from Alsace, a light sweet wine that served the dishes well.

Next came Arctic Char goat beurre blanc, rosemary, trout roe, pickled turnip and seaweed.

The cold-water fish meat is tender and succulent, enhanced by the rich goat beurre sauce. The Velouté white onion, liquorice and smoked Marcona almond provided a nice break before we tucked into Magret of Duck raspberry “hot sauce”, smoked tomato, sticky beet, grilled rose and sprouted almond. The succulent duck breast is excellent and nicely accented by the raspberry sauce. A glass each of 2017 Kumeu River “Hunting Hill” Chardonnay, Kumeu (Auckland), and 2017 Yelland & Papps “Second Take” Mataro from Barossa Valley in South Australia – a rich and intensely flavoured red – complemented the meal well.

We finished the dinner with Toasted Sesame Ice Cream, with grilled marshmallows & salted plum sauce, which sumptuously capped this delicious and enjoyable meal.

If you are looking for a relaxed and enlightened dining experience with innovative Nordic dishes, Frantzén’s Kitchen is a worthy choice. Be sure to book in advance though.■

Frantzén 提供品嚐菜單和單點菜單。我們選擇了餐廳的9道菜品嚐菜 單 ($1,188)。葡萄酒搭配有兩種選擇：4杯 ($688) 或7杯 ($888)。我們明智 地選擇了前者，事實證明，4 杯足以。 我們的晚餐開始了兩道小吃，還有一杯 NV Champagne Thienot, Reims，烤洋蔥牛尾汁、魚子醬和法式吐司，鋪上滿滿的松露配香醋，陳 年奶酪和松露茶，這是 Frantzén 的招牌之一。兩款菜品都是一口大小的， 我們特別喜歡法式吐司的口味，裡面混合了奶酪，松露和醋的味道。 首先是三道開胃菜：南瓜、花椰菜、松露南瓜、榛子麥片、松露油醋 汁和瑞典西博滕省奶酪；冷水帝王蟹配番茄、桃味“酸橘汁醃魚”、黑胡 椒、杏仁乳、芥末和姜；韃靼羊肉配黑蒜、黃瓜、魚子醬和法式香料油。 這三道菜對我們來說都是新口味。我們喜歡檸檬味的帝王蟹肉，還帶有一 絲辛辣口感。韃靼羊肉也很棒，美味的魚子醬與韃靼融合得很好。關於酒 品，我們點了2017年份的 Domaine Ostertag “Fronholz” Riesling, Epfig, Alsace, France，這是一款淡而甜的葡萄酒，與菜餚搭配完美。 接下來是 Arctic Char 配迷迭香，鱒魚子，醃製蘿蔔和海藻，冷水魚 肉柔嫩多汁，配上濃郁的山羊奶油醬。隨後一道菜是 The Velouté，白洋 蔥、甘草、杏仁；緊接著我們嚐到了 Magret of Duck 配“辣醬”、煙熏 番茄、甜菜、烤玫瑰和杏仁，鴨胸肉多汁美味，與覆盆子醬搭配得很好。 搭配的酒品是2017年的 Kumeu River “Hunting Hill” Chardonnay, Kumeu, Auckland, New Zealand 和同為2017年份的 Yelland & Papps “Second Take” Mataro, Barossa Valley, South Australia，濃郁美酒 與餐點相得益彰。 最後，我們以芝麻冰淇淋、烤棉花糖和鹹梅子醬為甜品結束了這頓美 味可口的晚餐。 如果您品嚐創新的北歐菜餚，感受輕鬆愉悅的用餐體驗，那麼 Frantzén’s Kitchen 是一個不錯的選擇，記得必提前預訂。■

Red Lobster

The much-anticipated recent opening of Red Lobster in Hong Kong was greeted with great fanfare by the local foodie community. The famous USbased seafood restaurant chain, founded in Lakeland, Florida in 1968, is now the world’s largest seafood restaurant company, operating around 750 outlets in 11 countries. The Hong Kong branch, located in Causeway Bay, is a partnership with FWM Restaurants Group, which operates internationally branded restaurants in Greater China.

When you think of Red Lobster, obviously its iconic steamed lobster comes to mind. The company sources all its shellfish – lobster, crab and shrimp–live and directly from America, and uses USDA beef.

For its Hong Kong start, Red Lobster has created several locally inspired dishes that take advantage of Hong Kong’s own rich seafood culinary culture.

These include Typhoon Shelter Lobster ($358/lb), umami-rich Salted Egg Yolk Shrimp ($48), which we tried, and Milk Tea Panna Cotta ($38). Also noteworthy are Red Lobster’s famous warm house-made Cheddar Cheese Biscuits, which are served complimentary in unlimited quantities – they were delicious and addictive.

It is the lobster that we came here for, though, and ours was a whopping three-pounder. The Live Maine Lobster Steamed ($318, $668 and $998 for 1, 2, 3-lb size respectively) is fetched straight from the tank, steamed and brought to the table. In Hong Kong, the steamed lobster is de-shelled by the staff at the table. It was everything we expected – tender succulent meat, especially the fresh sweet claw.

For good measure, we also tried Red Lobster’s surf-and-turf, Grilled Sirloin (7oz) and Lobster Tail ($298), which was outstanding. A filling dessert, Chocolate Tidal Wave ($78) wrapped up our sumptuous meal. Red Lobster serves a variety of cocktails and specialty drinks, including Classic Margarita and Bloody Mary.

Red Lobster’s debut in Hong Kong is destined to be a success as it fills a clear need – hearty and yummy seafood served American-style that offers consistent quality. We highly recommend it. 備受期待的 Red Lobster 最近在香港開業，十分受歡迎。 Red Lobster 於1968年在佛羅裡達州萊克蘭開設第一間網紅餐廳，如今已 成為世界上最大的海鮮餐廳公司，目前在11個國家設有750間餐廳。 香港的分店位於銅鑼灣，是與豐華味匯餐飲集團在大中華開設，豐華 味匯餐飲集團致力於在大中華區開設國際餐廳。 想到 Red Lobster 時，我們自會聯想到他家的招牌菜品——蒸活 龍蝦。 Red Lobster 的所有貝類——龍蝦、螃蟹和蝦，均直接從美國 採購，包括 USDA牛肉。

Red Lobster 在香港開設了多家本地風味餐廳，以利用香港本身 豐富的海鮮烹飪文化。其中包括港式避風塘炒龍蝦 ($358/1磅)，鮮味的 黃金炸大蝦 ($48) 和奶茶意式鮮奶凍 ($38)。同樣值得一提的是聞名 已久的自家製車打芝士鬆餅 ，可無限量免費享用——美味可口，讓人 上癮。 當然來這家的重點絕對是龍蝦，我們的龍蝦重達3磅。美式蒸活龍 蝦 (1磅、2磅、3磅分別為 HK$318、HK$668 和 HK$998)，蒸活的意

思是直接從容器中取出蒸熟，端上餐桌。在香港，服務人員會幫您給 蒸龍蝦去殼。最後您享用的就是——鮮嫩多汁的肉，爪肉尤其香甜。 此外，我們還品嚐了西冷牛排 (7盎司) 配龍蝦尾 ($298)，同樣精彩 美味。最後我們以巨浪朱古力蛋糕 ($78) 結束了這頓豐盛的晚餐。 Red Lobster 還提供雞尾酒和特色飲料，包括經典的瑪格麗塔和血腥瑪麗。

Red Lobster 在香港注定成功，因為它滿足了食客的需求——豐 盛而美味的美式海鮮，高質素食材， 建議您來試試。

HOT TABLES 港飲港食

The Tea Room at One-Eight-One Hotel 壹八壹冰室

In Hong Kong, dining retro-style is the latest trend, especially at outlets that hark back to the old cha chaan teng style café, lovingly called “bing sutt” or literally ‘ice café’. The latest stellar addition is Tea Room, an all-day dining concept located at the newly opened luxury boutique hotel One-Eight-One Hotel in the Western District.

Set in a stylish and refreshing environment, The Tea Room serves authentic old Hong Kong favourites as well as contemporary creations, including a range of dishes well known at regular Cantonese restaurants. The Tea Room’s décor is eye-catching, the art deco–style black and white chairs look sharp in the brightly lit, spacious restaurant. A fascinating collection of pictures of old Hong Kong on the walls helps bathe the setting in nostalgia.

We sampled dishes across the range of food on offer, starting with Boneless Sichuan Spicy Chicken ($98), which is slow cooked at a low temperature and seasoned with home-made chili sauce. Next was Cheese-Baked Curry Chicken Rice with Japanese Onsen Egg ($128), a real comfort food. Steamed Lobster & Chicken Glutinous Rice ($400/$800 for 2 and 4 persons respectively) is also a real treat, as the rice nicely absorbs the tasty flavours of the chicken and lobster. The Doubled-Boiled Soup of the Day ($88 per person), which uses seasonal ingredients like whelk, conpoy and abalone, is yummy.

Other dishes we tried included “Golden Brick” Fried Tofu in Mushroom Sauce ($108), Sour Prawns ($98) and Steamed Giant Grouper Fillet with Mungbean Sheets & Preserved Vegetables ($480), in which the salty vegetables blend well with the tender grouper fillet.

It would have been remiss to pass up the old-style Hong Kong drinks, which include Red Bean Frappe with Italian Gelato ($40) and Black Cow (Coca-Cola with Italian Gelato) ($40) with the Italian Gelato specially made for The Tea Room by 2/3 Dolci.

Dining out at The Tea Room is a pleasure – down-home local food, a charming ambience and reasonable prices. For a genuine local dining experience, give Tea Room a try. 在香港，復古的就餐風格越來越受歡迎，尤其極具香港獨有的冰室餐飲 文化的新式餐廳。這種餐廳一般被稱為冰室，最近一家全天候提供餐飲的冰 室——壹八壹冰室開幕，位於西區豪華精品酒店One-Eight-One內。 冰室設在時尚清新的環境中，供應地道的香港老地道美食以及當代創意 菜品，當然也有多種普通粵菜。壹八壹冰室的裝飾獨特，黑白椅子與明亮寬 敞的餐廳形成鮮明對比，牆上懸掛著香港老照片，勾勒出整體環境，營造出 懷舊之感。 我們品嚐了多款菜餚。首先品嚐了 無 骨 口 水 雞 ($98) ，低溫慢燉的雞 肉，用自製的辣椒醬調味，鮮辣可口。接下來是日式溫泉蛋焗芝士咖哩雞飯 ($128)，這是一款暖胃美食。龍蝦蒸雞糯米飯 ($400 兩位用，$800 四位用) 同樣美味，米飯吸收了雞肉和龍蝦的鮮味。是日燉湯 ($88)，採用優質時令食 材，如響螺、瑤柱和鮑魚。 我們還品嚐了其他菜品，金磚野菌豆腐 ($108)、咕嚕蝦球 ($98) 和雪菜粉 皮蒸龍躉 ($480)，雪菜與嫩石斑魚片完美地搭配在一起。 來這裡一定要品嚐港風傳統飲品， 雪糕紅豆冰 ( $40 )、 黑牛 ( $40 )—— 意式雪糕由 2/3 Dolci 為 One-Eight-One 酒店特別製造。 在壹八壹冰室就餐讓人愉悅，可以品嚐本地美食，感受宜人氛圍，而且 價格合理。如果您喜歡港風餐廳，不要錯過這裡。

Kido 木户

A recent addition to the legion of quality Japanese restaurants in Hong Kong is Kido, a traditional Fukuoka-style “hakata-ku” yakitori grill bar located in Tsim Sha Tsui. What makes Kido special is its speciality – yakitori chicken using prized female Yamato Nikudori chicken specially raised for its strong flavour and juicy texture and sourced from chicken farms around Nara City in south-eastern Japan.

Kido also serves a variety of other meat and vegetable skewers.

The restaurant is helmed by Executive Chef Kimura Junichiro, whose father pioneered many of the menu items at his legendary restaurant in Kyushu. Kido also prides itself on its grilling technique, which uses odourless high carbon “binchotan” charcoal made from Japanese oak. The restaurant offers both a communal counter and dining booths for privacy.

Some of the dishes we sampled included Assorted Pickled Vegetables ($72) and Fukuoka Fruit Tomato ($78) to start. For chicken items we tried Kido Home-made Chicken Meatball with Egg ($36), Japan Yamato Nikudori Chicken Heart ($39), Japan Yamato Nikudori Chicken Gizzard ($39), Japan Yamato Nikudori Chicken Gizzard ($39) and Chicken Wing ($34). Other skewers worth asking for are Fuji Apple and Sangen Pork Roll ($33), Avocado and Sangen Pork Roll ($36), Deep Fried Scallop ($88), Truffle in Deep-fried Potato and Deep Fried Prawn. Kido’s signature Miyazaki Fried Chicken Tartar Sauce “1956” ($98), featuring its secret family recipe, is a must. Also excellent is Inaniwa Udon Noodles with Yuzu and Vegetables ($78).

A Yakitori bar like Kido is perfect for drinking Japanese sake as you enjoy the food, and the restaurant offers a nice selection of quality sakes from quality distilleries which include Koshi no Yuki Tsubaki Tsugi no Tamayura Junmai Daiginjo ($880/720ml and $1180/1,800ml), Zaku Miyabi no Tomo Nakadori Junmai Daiginjo ($680/720ml and $1,280/1,800ml) and Tsushimaya Yamada Nishiki Junmai Daiginjo ($880/720ml), among others.

If you are looking for somewhere to chill and enjoy excellent Japanese chicken skewers and good sakes, Kido is certainly worth a try. 香港現有越來越多的優質日本餐廳，最近又有一家位於尖沙咀的傳統福 岡風味串燒專門店 Kido 全新開業。 Kido 之所以與眾不同，是因為它的特 色雞肉串燒是由從日本奈良引進被當地視為頂級美味雞肉製成，這種雞肉 來自日本東南部奈良市附近的養雞場，專門飼養，以其相對較有嚼勁且肉 味濃郁而聞名。 此外 Kido 還提供各種其他肉類和蔬菜串。 該餐廳由行政總廚木村潤一郎先生掌控，他的父親在九州島宮崎馳名食 府開創了許多菜品。 Kido 還以其燒烤技術而聞名，選用日本橡木製作而成 的備長炭。餐廳提供公共櫃檯和私密用餐區，滿足顧客種種需求。 我們點了雜錦漬物 ($72) 和福岡番茄 ($78)，特色雞肉方面我們則品嚐了 許多，例如自家製雞肉丸配黃金蛋 ($36)、日本大和雞雞心 ($39)、日本大和 雞雞腎 ($39) 和雞翼 ($34)。其他值得一試的還有富士蘋果豚肉捲 ($33)、牛 油果豚肉捲 ($36)、揚帆立貝 ($88)、松露揚薯波和揚蝦串。此外特別推薦總 廚木村先生家族秘傳宮崎南蠻炸雞 ($98)，這道招牌菜是家族秘方。同樣美 味的還有柚子雜煮野菜稻庭烏冬 ($78)。 像 Kido 這樣的 Yakitori 酒吧非常適合在品嚐美食的同時喝日本酒。這 家餐廳確實提供了優質蒸餾酒的精選，包括「月之玉響 」($880/720ml； $ 1,180/1,800ml )，「 作奏乃智 」( $680/720ml ； $1,280/1,800 ml ) 和 「越之鶴」($ 880 / 720ml) 等。 如果您想享受美味的日本雞肉串和烤雞，Kido 絕對值得一試！

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.

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

‘Art Salon: Qin Ai’ at Galerie Ora-Ora 12 Dec – 1 Feb Ora-Ora is pleased to present Art Salon: Qin Ai at the gallery until 1 February 2020. An important figure in the contemporary ink movement, her work combines traditional Chinese painting techniques with compositions inspired by Western art. Both contemporary and timeless, it is characterised by delicate brushstrokes, saturated colour tones, and a refined use of space and perspective—elements that give her works a sense of dreamlike unreality.

Art Salon: Qin Ai presents a collection of paintings from different stages of Qin’s life, each expressing her unique style and philosophy. 17/F, H Queen's, 80 Queen's Road Central, Central; Mon-Fri: 10am-7pm; Sat: 11am-7pm; 2851 1171; http://www.ora-ora.com

‘Nobuyoshi Araki 荒木經惟“Flower Rondeau”’ at SHOP Taka Ishii Gallery 21 Nov - 19 Jan The exhibition, which marks both Araki’s 28th presentation at Taka Ishii Gallery and the Hong Kong space’s first anniversary, features a selection of photographic works and two collaborations, “NOBUYOSHI ARAKI x uniform experiment” by SOPH. and “COMING OF AGE” by Virgil Abloh. These pieces gathered from different series/projects gently align with one another through flower motifs, one of the iconic subjects of Araki’s works, and the wallpaper of “Flower Rondeau” (1997) exclusively made for this exhibition will transform the space. Rare vintage books and editions will also be available for viewing and purchase. Shops 4A & 4B, UG/F, Bo Fung Mansion, No.1 St. Francis Yard, Wan Chai, Hong Kong; 11am-7pm.

Closed on Mondays; 3619 0011; www.takaishiigallery.com

‘Holy Mosses Copy’ at Blindspot Gallery 19 Nov - 11 Jan “Holy Mosses” is a group exhibition of eight female and gender non-binary artists. The exhibition asks a pivotal question: how do we give expression to a world where all genders thrive in freedom? Resisting essentialist narratives, and cultural and biological determinism, this ensemble of artworks explores the non-binary fluidity of gender, its expression across the amorphous expanse of organic nature, and its ensuing mythological imagination and daydreaming across cultures and peoples. 15/F Po Chai Industrial Building, 28 Wong Chuk Hang Road, Aberdeen; Tue-Sat: 10am6pm; 2517 6238; www.blindspotgallery.com

‘Yang Xiaojian: Fauvist Ink’ at Alisan Fine Arts (Aberdeen) 25 Nov - 29 Feb Alisan Fine Arts presents its first solo exhibition for the contemporary artist Yang Xiaojian, whose bold revival of classical calligraphy into a form reflective of Western abstract expressionism has earned him the title of “the Oriental Ink Beast.” In these large works on paper, the artist deconstructs Chinese ideograms into power-fuelled, ambitious compositions that challenge conventional EastWest categorisation. 2305 Hing Wai Centre, 7 Tin Wan Praya Road, Aberdeen; By appointment only; 2526 1091; www. alisan.com.hk

HOTEL CORNER

酒店專才

MEET THE

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Christopher Liu, Executive Director of the newly opened OneEight-One Hotel and Serviced Residences, shared with us his thoughts on his career and his new hotel. 新開業的“ One-Eight-One 酒店及服务式住宅”執行董事 廖坤城先生與我們分享了他對酒店業和自家新酒店的看法。 My family wanted me to be a lawyer. I literally had my legal career mapped out at six months old when they signed me up to enrol at Eton, then Oxford. I didn’t attend Eton, but I did read law at Oxford.

I joined Deacons in the corporate finance practice and was a partner at 31. I felt burned out, So I was looking to do something else. I chose to go back into the family business and look after the real estate side. I was influenced by my mother’s family, with a long pedigree in real estate development. But I had to learn everything from scratch.

And that’s how I got involved in this hotel. It was a commercial building that the family had owned for decades. Originally a rice storage facility, it was converted into office premises in the 1990s. When we decided to redevelop it again, we thought a hotel made the most sense given our location; and a good hotel is something we could leave as a legacy.

We operate the hotel as a 4-star luxury boutique hotel. To stand out among the other hotels in the area, we chose to make our rooms extra large, and all the rooms enjoy harbour views. We also focused on the bathrooms – having a comfortable bathroom makes a huge difference to the visitor experience; we strive for a homely hotel: our design draws in the mountain and harbour and we use a lot of wood and earthy materials to create a warm, easy feel. Our motto is ‘a home away from home’.

As a single property hotel, we need to stabilise our occupancy, so we are operating it as hybrid, with a balance of long-stay guests and free independent travellers. To keep it convenient for long-stay customers we have expansive F&B options – the Tea Room, with a neighbourhood Bing Sutt café concept, is our all-daydining outlet; the Common Room serves Italian cuisine complemented by French and English selections; and there is a jazz bar on the top floor.

I dived into the F&B business with a passion: a few years ago, in my first move, I brought over Trattoria del Pescatore from Italy, which is now the Common Room.

Today, I take care of the company’s overseas investments, the hotel business and the F&B business – it keeps me plenty busy.

I love karaoke and playing mahjong, but don’t have time for them anymore. I still love to cook and eat – I’m a sucker for carbs. You can say my hobby now is work – I enjoy the little projects that I can complete and get satisfaction from.

I love Hong Kong because it’s so dynamic, so convenient and so efficient. And of course it is home for me, where my family is.

Christopher Liu 廖坤城

我的家人希望我成為一名律師。當我6個月大時，他們就為我在 伊頓公學和牛津大學註冊了，實際上已經為我規劃好了法律職業生 涯。最後我沒有上伊頓公學，但在牛津讀了法律。 我加入了的近律師行的財務部門，31歲時成為合伙人，而後感到 筋疲力盡。所以我選擇回到家族企業，負責房地產業務。我的母親是 我在房地產開發業務的啟蒙老師，但我也要從頭學起。 這就是我進入這家酒店的原因。這是一幢商業建築，這個家族擁 有它幾十年了。它原本是大米倉庫，在20世紀90年代被改建為辦公 樓。決定重新開發它是考慮到酒店的位置，這裡最有意義；好的酒店 是可以傳承的財富。 我們經營的酒店是一家4星級的豪華精品酒店。為了在香港酒店 業中脫穎而出，我們特意把房間設計得比其他酒店的客房大。所有的 房間都能看到海港景色，我們專注於浴室——舒適的浴室會給客人留 下深刻印象；此外我們想讓酒店有家的感覺，設計借鑒了山區和海港 風光，使用大量的木材和泥土材料營造出溫馨家庭之感。我們的座右 銘是讓客人“賓至如歸”。 作為單體酒店，我們希望穩定入住率，因此我們將其改為混合型 酒店來運營，為了讓長期入住的客人更加方便，我們增加了更多的餐 飲選擇——壹八壹冰室，採用鄰近地區“冰室”的概念成為我們的 全天候餐廳；Common Room 供應意大利美食，輔以法式和英式美 食；頂層還設有一個爵士酒吧。 我滿懷激情地從事餐飲行業；幾年前，我從意大利帶了一家 叫 Trattoria del Pescatore 的餐廳過來，現在已經改名為 Common Room。現如今我負責公司的海外投資、酒店業務和餐飲業務——這 讓我忙得不可開交。 我喜歡唱卡拉OK和打麻將，現在卻很少有時間娛樂。我還喜歡 做飯和吃東西——我非常喜歡碳水化合物，這絕對是我的暖胃食物。 您可以說我現在的愛好是工作——我認為工作是很多小項目組成的， 完成這些項目可以從中獲得滿足。 我愛香港，因為它充滿活力，交通便捷，生活高效。我喜歡它， 因為這裡是我的家，這裡有我的家人。 貼心建議：

My recommendations for visitors:

1. 打卡維多利亞港——獨一無二。

1. Explore Victoria Harbour – unique in the world.

2. 探索太平山頂和赤柱； 在西區的小街道，還有幾家僅存的還在生 產竹製品，如點心蒸籠和手工藝品的商店。

2. Check out the Peak and Stanley; and explore the little streets here in Western District with these last remaining shops that still make stuff like bamboo steamers and handicraft items.

3. Come and stay at our hotel. We aim to be different.
