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.

While community cases have practically stopped and our vaccination effort is proceeding steadily, international travel continues to be restricted with quarantine protocol remaining in place as the Covid-19 pandemic rages on in most other countries. While some social distancing measures remain in force and masks must still be worn in all public places, the city is returning to normal, with more events and activities resuming. For prudence, though, we suggest that you contact your concierge for up-to-date details of restrictions.

Cycling in Hong Kong – for leisure, sport and transport – has steadily grown in popularity, the more so with the recent success of Sara Lee Wai Tze, who won a bronze medal in track cycling at the Tokyo Olympic Games. Despite crowded streets and highways, Hong Kong offers plenty of options for cycling about the territory, including almost 300 kilometres of dedicated cycling tracks, open roads in the countryside, and numerous mountain bike trails. Our cover story this month gives a rundown of the current cycling scene in Hong Kong and features 10 of the city’s best cycling routes and destinations. Please go to page 8 for more details.

The outlying islands of Hong Kong offer residents the precious opportunity to get away from the city’s madding crowds – emerald jewels that offer beaches, hamlets, hiking trails, rugged shores and fantastic rock formations.

This month we highlight those outlying islands that still require access by boat and remain largely unspoiled havens for quietude and excursions. Please go to our feature story on page 14 for more details.

September features several noteworthy events. The Mid-Autumn Festival falls in this month, with mooncakes to be given out and consumed galore. This month, Hong Kong welcomes – after 18 years dormant – the reopening of Central Market, a historic landmark and heritage building that epitomises the Bauhaus architecture popular in the 1960s and 70s. The new Water Park at Ocean Park is also scheduled to launch this month, while Hong Kong’s favourite sporting pastime, horse racing, opens for another exciting season this month as well.

Please go to our Calendar and Happenings sections starting from page 4 for more on these and other events.

As social restrictions ease, the dining scene is returning to normal, and many restaurants are downright busy. This month, our food section highlights three Japanese restaurants, all different, a refined Cantonese restaurant, and a Nepalese momo restaurant. Please visit our Hot Tables and Dining News sections for details.

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.

Gu Jiani and Untitled Group 古佳妮及十口無團

A latest epic set, sound, light, and movement creation; Choreography by Gu Jiani at Freespace 中國當代舞壇最大膽的藝術家之一，展現爆炸、細緻及精確的肢體語言

Despite being a work in progress, the West Kowloon Cultural District exceeds expectations as the cultural hub for performance arts in Hong Kong. Featuring world-class venues such as Xiqu Centre, Freespace, Art Park, and many more to come, the district consistently hosts quality, avant-garde performances by artists from Asia and the international art scene.

This October, passionate fans of dance are in for a special treat. Freespace presents the Hong Kong premiere of Transition , the latest creation by Gu Jiani, China’s famed choreographer, and her dance troupe, Untitled Group. Having grown up and developed her talents in China, Gu Jiani is one of the country’s most daring voices in contemporary dance.

Her works, including her group’s recent performance in the international presentation of the Hermes’s Women’s Fall/Winter 2021 collection, have toured around Asia, the US and Europe.

Inspired by daily abandoned objects and migrations of all scales observed in animals and human society, Transition is a complex and exhilarating interplay between performers, mannequins, and boxes, exploring the dynamics between dancers and objects discarded in the consumerist society.

Transition explores the themes of mobility, space, vitality, and boundary-breaking throughout the course of its three-year development, incorporating the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. The show’s explosive choreography expresses struggles and intricacies with inter-personal relationships and the surroundings, requiring precision and trust among dancers.

Transition will perform at Freespace for two shows only. Book your tickets now!

Jaap | Dvořák 7 – Hong Kong Philharmonic

Inspiration can blossom anywhere. Anna Clyne’s Within Her Arms turns a memory of her mother into music of timeless beauty. Dvořák saw a train entering a station: the melody that popped into his head grew into one of the stormiest and most powerful symphonies of the 19th century, beloved of Jaap van Zweden. And Rachmaninov took a scrap of a tune by Paganini and spun it into pure gold. Dazzling, playful and deliriously romantic, the Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini is still a matchless showpiece for a truly great pianist – so it’s perfect for our soloist Avan Yu.

梵志登｜德伏扎克七——香港管弦樂團 無論在哪裡，靈感都可以開花結果。作曲家克蘭茵將她對母親的思念，化 為美妙音樂，流傳後世；德伏扎克看着火車進站，腦海中忽然飄過一個旋 律，就衍生成19世紀最強勁、最激烈的交響曲之一（那是梵志登非常喜歡 的樂曲呢）。拉赫曼尼諾夫根據巴格尼尼一個旋律的片段，編寫成純金一 樣奪目的傑作。《巴格尼尼主題狂想曲》活潑有趣，浪漫激情，是首令人 讚嘆的樂曲，而且對技藝超群的鋼琴家來說，至今仍是展現自己超卓琴藝 的首選──因此，由余沛霖擔任獨奏實在是完美組合。

Hong Kong City Hall Venue Partnership Scheme: Sea Interludes – Hong Kong Sinfonietta

The sea – now bewitchingly calm and reflective, then mercilessly tempestuous and ferocious – has fascinated and inspired generations of composers. Set sail on an invigorating voyage with Hong Kong Sinfonietta and conductor Roberto Forés Veses in Sea Interludes, where the waves of Thomas Adès’ and Britten’s music lull and challenge you, until they morph into the soaring silhouette of the Alps – an equally dramatic and hauntingly beautiful force of nature – in Brahms’ much-loved Symphony No 1.

Waiting Heart – Dance

Hong Kong Dance Company and Utopia Cantonese Opera Workshop’s joint presentation of Waiting Heart returns to the stage. Based on the Cantonese opera masterpiece The Legend of the Purple Hairpin, it skilfully intertwines the inheritance of traditions with the wonders of contemporary imagination.

Central Market

Central Market, a beloved historical landmark that was closed and has sat empty for 18 years, finally reopened on 23 August to much fanfare after an extensive renovation. Located in the heart of Central and entry point to the Mid-levels Escalator System, the redeveloped building is destined to be a popular destination for locals and tourists alike. Managed by the Chinachem Group under a 10-year operating lease, the three-storey building houses souvenir and novelty shops, fashionable and popular F&B outlets, a niche supermarket and sitting area. Under the theme of “Playground for All”, the redeveloped building is set to regain its landmark status.

中環街市

舞蹈劇場 X 簡約粵劇《紫玉成煙》今年再踏台板，改編自粵劇經典 《紫釵記》，並跨越藝術界限，融合舞蹈劇場及簡約粵劇兩大藝術元 素，對角色身分進行創新的詮釋，承傳粵劇文化瑰寶的同時，牽引更 多想像。

曾關閉並空置了 18 年的歷史地標中環街市，經過大規模翻修後，終於在 8 月 23 日重新開放。重建後的大廈位於中環心臟地帶，是半山自動梯系統的入口，肯 定會成為本地居民和遊客打卡的熱門目的地。華懋集團對這個三層建築擁有 10 年管理權，街市裡有新奇紀念品商店、時尚餐飲店、小眾超市和休憩區。以 「Playground for All」為概念打造休閒新體驗，重建後的街市是半山自動扶梯的 入口，注定要重新奪回其地標性地位。

21 SEP

Mid-Autumn Festival

Under continuing Covid-19 restrictions, Hong Kong’s celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival will be more subdued than usual, with the perennial Tai Hang Fire Dragon Dance and Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival festivities across the Territory cancelled for a second year. Still, families will continue to gather for the Mid-Autumn dinner, enjoy the full moon, and render appropriate thanks to local deities.

The giving and eating of mooncakes remains quintessential to the occasion, with millions of the sweet delicacies expected to be purchased, mostly as gifts. Creating ever-fancier mooncakes wrapped in ever more eye-catching boxes has become a point of pride for mooncake makers, the choices ranging from classic lotus seed with egg yolk to ice cream and snow-skin mooncakes to mini-mooncakes, and more. Many hotels in Hong Kong prepare their own versions, all beautifully packaged. Even the international confectioners join in, creating yet more modern variations on this ancient sweet.

What type of mooncakes to choose? For traditional mooncakes like double-egg yolk with lotus seed, Maxim’s always make quality and consistent mooncakes fit for purpose. Other popular and quality renditions include Kee Wah and Wing Wah. Noted pastry confectioner COVA combines its renowned cake-making expertise with exquisite packaging to produce some of the city’s better mooncakes, including their signature creamy custard mooncake and mocha mooncake.

Mini mooncakes continue to grow in popularity, for their more manageable portion size. Try the mini mooncake with lava sesame seeds from Loong Yuen, the award-winning Cantonese restaurant at the Holiday Inn Golden Mile, which offers a healthy and aromatic alternative to regular mooncakes.

Other innovative options include ice-cream mooncakes from HaagenDazs, Godiva chocolate mooncakes, and Tai Pan snowy mooncakes, still a local favourite after all these years.

中秋節 由於 Covid-19 的持續限制，香港中秋節的慶祝活動會相對低調， 往年各地的大坑火龍舞和中秋燈會慶祝活動已被取消。儘管如此， 家庭聚會享用中秋晚餐，賞月，祭拜神靈依舊在。 當然，送月餅吃月餅的傳統不能丟，每年這個時候會有數以百萬計 的月餅，大多數用來送禮製作出更加精美的月餅，設計引人注目的 包裝已成為月餅製造商的驕傲，從經典的蛋黃蓮子月餅到冰淇淋、 冰皮月餅，再到迷你月餅，應有盡有。香港的許多酒店都會自製 包裝精美的月餅。就連國際糖果商也加入進來，為這一傳統糕點創造 出更多現代風味。 我們精心為您推薦幾款有代表性的月餅，美心的雙黃蓮蓉月餅，始終 品質如一，廣受歡迎。奇華餅家和榮華餅家也有很美味的雙黃蓮蓉 月餅。

COVA 的月餅也名氣高企，品牌善於將經典的蛋糕製作融入於月餅 技術，配上精美的包裝，生產出高端豪華的優質月餅，推薦標誌性 的奶黃月餅和摩卡月餅等。 迷你月餅分量恰到好處，很受歡迎。金域假日酒店內獲獎無數的龍苑 中菜廳今年全新推出了竹炭迷你流心芝麻月餅，既健康又美味，在很多 人心中已經取代常規傳統月餅。 其他創新月餅包括哈根達斯冰淇淋月餅、 Godiva 巧克力月餅和時 隔多年仍廣受歡迎的大班冰皮月餅。

COVER STORY 封面故事

Cycling ong Hong K 香 港 骑 行

R

iding on the recent successes of our cycling Olympians, interest in bicycling in Hong Kong has never been higher. Surprisingly, despite crowded streets and major roads criss-crossing the city, Hong Kong offers an abundance of choices of places to bike, ranging from flat scenic routes to sinuous mountain roads to challenge the fittest climbers, as well as thrilling downhill mountain bike runs. CityLife reviews the current cycling scene in Hong Kong and unveils its list of recommended routes to explore the city up close, under your own power.

自 行车选手在奥运会上取得了优异成绩后，香港市民对单车的兴趣空前 高涨。尽管香港的街道和主要道路纵横交错，但仍有许多地方可供骑 行，从平坦的风景路线，到最适合挑战者的陡峭道路，还有惊险的下坡自 行车道，应有尽有。 《东方之珠》为那些想要近距离体验香港单车生活的 人提供了一份推荐路线清单。

CYCLING IN HONG KONG

在港骑行

A s far as cycling goes, Hong Kong is a city of two tales – the abundance of the New Territories, where new towns are threaded with cycle tracks and locals ride for transport and pleasure, and the urban areas, often seen as dauntingly busy, and certainly lacking dedicated infrastructure – but nevertheless a viable option for anyone used to riding in other cities. As a recreational activity, cycling continues to grow in popularity, especially in the relative space beyond the crowded streets of Hong Kong and Kowloon.

Just minutes outside the city’s urban core, cycling becomes a very viable option, for leisurely sightseeing and exploring, or something more sporty. Over the course of the last four decades, matching the growth of cycling here and worldwide, the new towns have nearly all been built with cycling in mind – Tuen Mun, Yuen Long, Sha Tin, Tai Po, Fanling, Tseung Kwan O – offering an enticing labyrinth of over 200 kilometres of mostly dedicated cycling tracks.

就 遍布單車徑，市民可騎單車出行遊玩；而市區交通繁忙熙熙攘 騎單車而言，香港是有兩個值得推薦的地方：一是新界，新市鎮

攘，缺乏專門的基礎設施——但對於那些習慣騎車的人來說，也可以騎行。 騎行作為一種休閒活動，越來越受歡迎，尤其是在香港和九龍擁擠的街道以 外的空間。

距離市中心僅幾分鐘路程，騎行出發非常可行。在過去的二十年裡， 配合本地及世界各地單車運動的發展，新城鎮在構建設計時都考慮了騎行 車道 – 屯門、元朗、沙田、大埔、粉嶺、將軍澳 – 提供超過 200 公里專用 自行車道。

www.hkcitylife.com | SEPTEMBER 2021

On top of these local facilities, the crown jewel is the New Territories Cycling Track Network, an 82-kilometre route stretching from Tsuen Wan to Ma on Shan.

Much of it has now been completed, including the link between Yuen Long and Sheung Shui, part of the 60-kilometre route from Tuen Mun to Ma On Shan, passing through areas including Tin Shui Wai, Yuen Long, Sheung Shui, Fanling, Tai Po, Fo Tan, and Sha Tin along the way. An initial 2.3-kilometre section of Tsuen Wan Waterfront from Tsuen Wan Riviera Park to Bayview Garden in Tsuen Wan has also just opened for cycling, as a downpayment on the 23 kilometres from Tsuen Wan to Tuen Mun. The network links popular cycling centres, with bikes available for rent – in some cases allowing drop-off at different locations. Cycling popularity is expected to intensify as local district councils get on board the global surge in cycling to request building tracks in their areas.

Most cycling though still takes place on regular roads where cyclists share the carriageway with cars, trucks, and buses. That certainly is the case on Hong Kong Island, in Kowloon, Sai Kung, and much of Lantau. Nevertheless, for the most part, by keeping alert, cycling is a safe and wonderful way to explore the multiple layers of our compact city.

Several urban parks – Kowloon City Walled Park and Quarry Bay Park – have short, closed loops of cycle track, ideal for checking out a new or borrowed bike, or for learning the basics. West Kowloon Waterfront Promenade has bikes for rent to use on a 1.4km stretch of harbourfront with magnificent views over the Western Harbour – all the more so around sundown. For BMX fans, Kwai Chung has a full-fledged BMX facility that is popular with young and adult riders alike.

More people are also taking up mountain biking. There are 15 designated mountain bike trails and plenty of unofficial trails dotted throughout Hong Kong’s mountains, many of which are inside the Tai Lam Chung Country Park, the de facto hub for the sport. As to indoor track racing, the success of cyclist Sara lee Wai-Sze who won a bronze medal in the just-completed Tokyo Olympics, will propel more people to check out track cycling at the Hong Kong Velodrome in Tseung Kwan O, the city’s home of indoor cycling sport.

In retrospect, given its diverse terrain of hills, coastline and flat plains and mostly agreeable weather, Hong Kong should long have been a haven for cycling for pleasure, sport and transport, as it offers myriad scenic routes suitable for families and casual riders, or adventurous explorers, all year around. Cycling has a bright future in Hong Kong indeed.

So, why not get into bicycling with your family? While bike-sharing in Hong Kong is largely restricted to the area around Tseung Kwan O, there are many rental outlets at popular cycling destinations. And if you are interested in getting your own bike, the city’s numerous cycle shops can provide you any bike you want. Bikes are carried (free) on all of the extensive MTR rail network, although you may be asked to remove a wheel.

除上述本地設施外，最重要的是新界單車徑網絡，這是一個由荃 灣延伸至馬鞍山的全長 82 公里的網絡線。大部分工程已完成，包括 由屯門至馬鞍山的 60 公里路線的最後一環連接元朗與上路，途經包 括天水圍、元朗、上水、粉嶺、大埔、火炭和沙田。由荃灣至屯門全 長 23 公里的連接荃灣至荃灣海濱的第一期工程，全長 2.3 公里，由 荃灣海濱公園至灣景花園，亦已啟用。該網絡將熱門的自行車中心連 接起來，並可租自行車——在某些情況下，允許在不同地點還車。隨 着全球騎自行車熱潮的興起，地區區議會也加入進來，要求在自己的 地區修建自行車道，想必自行車的熱度會進一步上升。 儘管如此，大部分的騎行仍然是與汽車、卡車和公共汽車共享道 路。在香港島、九龍、西貢和大嶼山的大部分地區，情況確實如此。 在大多數情況下，只要保持警惕，騎行是安全的，也是探索我們這個 密集型城市的絕佳方式。 如果您只想在城市範圍內短途騎自行車，許多公園都設有自行車 道，通常不到一公里長。這也是學習騎車的好地方。鰂魚湧公園、西 九龍海濱長廊可以租用共享單車，欣賞海港、數碼港海濱公園和九龍 城公園的美景。對於初出茅廬的車手來說，葵涌甚至有一個發展多年 的小輪車公園，適合兒童和成人！

現在也有越來越多的人開始騎山地自行車。香港有 15 條指定的山地車道，還有許多非官方的山道，其中很 多都在大欖湧郊野公園內，大欖湧郊野公園實際上是山地 車騎行的中心。至於室內徑賽，在剛剛結束的東京奧運會 上奪得銅牌的自行車選手李慧詩的成功，讓更多的人到香 港室內自行車運動主場地——將軍澳的香港單車館觀看室 內賽車。 回顧過去，香港地形多樣，山巒、海岸線、平原聚在 一起，氣候宜人，自古以來就是騎行和運動的天堂，一年 四季都有適合家庭、騎手或冒險者的騎行路線。單車在香 港很有前景。 所以和家人一起去騎自行車呀，雖然香港的共享單車 尚未興起，但在熱門單車目的地有許多租賃店。如果您有 興趣想買自行車，這座城市有很多自行車零售店，想要款 式這都有。所有地鐵都可以（免費）攜帶自行車，不過可 能會被要求卸下車輪。

WHERE TO RIDE

骑行地点

CityLife has highlighted 10 cycling routes around Hong Kong for your riding pleasure, offering a variety of cycling experiences and challenges. They include both dedicated cycling tracks and road riding, plus a mountain bike trail to boot. So pick your journey and be sure to stop and smell the roses along the way! 《東方之珠》精選了香港不同地區的 10 條單車路線，讓您盡享騎行樂趣，感受單車體驗和挑戰。包括在專用自行車道 上、在公路上，以及在山地自行車道上騎行。享受旅程的時候記得停下聞一聞沿途的瑰麗花香！

Sha Tin/Ma On Shan to Tai Po Waterfront Park/Tai Mei Tuk 沙田/马鞍山至大埔海滨公园/大美督 The backbone of the New Territories Cycling Track Network and arguably the best-known and most popular cycling path in Hong Kong, and for good reason – the views of Tolo Harbour and Plover Cove Reservoir are fabulous. You can start from any of Tai Wai, Fo Tan or Ma On Shan and follow the track along Tolo Harbour to either Tai Po Waterfront Park or further along to Tai Mei Tuk, or vice versa, of course. It is mostly a flat route, perfect for a family or occasional riders.

The route is flexible enough to allow different time and endurance constraints.

Bike rental shops are at end points and major locations. 新界單車徑網絡的主幹道，可以說是香港最著名和最受歡迎的單車徑。你可以從大圍、 火炭或馬鞍山的任何一處出發，沿吐露港前往大埔海濱公園或更遠一點的大美督，反之 亦然。這裡很適合家庭和孩子，因為都是平地騎行。路線十分靈活，可以允許不同耐力 的人來騎行。主要終點均設有單車租賃店，沿途吐露港及船灣淡水湖的風景盡收眼底。

Nam Sang Wai

南生围

Another popular destination is Nam Sang Wai. The 20-kilometre ride starts from Yuen Long MTR Station where you can rent bicycles and make the short journey to nearby to Nam Sang Wai. Once there you pass through the mangroves and marshes – easily one of the most idyllic and picturesque rides in Hong Kong. Take care as you cross several minor roads. If you are up for a longer ride, you can join the cycling network track at Yuen Long and ride to the Hong Kong Wetland Park in Tin Shui Wai for more ecological sightseeing. 是另一個熱門景點，20 公里的車程從港鐵元朗站開始，您可以在那裡租用自行車，然 後短途旅行到附近的南生圍。到達後，您會穿過南生圍的紅樹林和沼澤地——這目前 是香港最田園詩般、風景如畫的場地之一。穿過小路時要小心，如果想騎得更遠，可 以騎到元朗的單車徑，騎車前往天水圍的香港濕地公園，享受更多生態觀光。

10 www.hkcitylife.com | SEPTEMBER 2021

Hong Kong Island West/South 香港岛西/南 If you don’t mind jostling a bit with cars and buses along the way, a ride from western Hong Kong Island on to the south side is worth considering. Start anywhere near the Western District waterfront and join Victoria Road then Sandy Bay Road to Cyberport and Wah Fu, from where you can stick to the waterfront along Tin Wan Praya on to Aberdeen and then to Ocean Park along Nam Long Shan Road. After that you’ll have to follow the south side’s only main road to take you all the way to Stanley and Tai Tam. If you are ambitious, an arduous climb will get you up Tai Tam Road and onward to either Shau Kei Wan or Shek O and Big Wave Beach. We recommend this route for experienced riders only. 如果你不介意沿途與小轎車或巴士擠來擠去，可以考慮從香港島西到 南側。從西區海傍附近出發，經域多利道、沙灣道、數碼港及華富， 從那裡可以沿着田灣海旁的海濱一直到香港仔，然後沿南朗山路往海 洋公園。之後便可以沿着南面唯一的主路一直走到赤柱和大潭。如果 你有冒險精神，可以沿着大潭路到筲箕灣、石澳及大浪灘。只建議有 經驗的騎手探索此路線。

Tseung Kwan O / Sai Kung 将军澳/西贡 There is a nice network of cycling tracks in Tseung Kwan O that connects the Hong Kong Velodrome Park to the Waterfront Park, passing by Po Lam, Hang Hau, Tiu Keng Leng and Tseung Kwan O along the way. At less than six kilometres long, the network route is relatively short. Tseung Kwan O though can also serve as the starting point for cycling to Clearwater Bay Road either westward to the Clearwater Bay Beaches and the golf club or eastward to Sai Kung town and beyond. 將軍澳有一個連接香港單車館和海濱公園的自行車道，沿途經過寶琳、 坑口、調景嶺和將軍澳。這條不到 6 公里長的線路相對較短。您可從 將軍澳出發，向西前往清水灣道，或前往清水灣泳灘及高爾夫球會，或 向東前往西貢市及更遠的地方。

Tsuen Wan to Gold Coast / Tsuen Mun along Castle Peak Road 荃湾至黄金海岸/荃门沿青山公路 You can start at the just-completed Tsuen Wan Waterfront track and ride on Castle Peak Road along the coast all the way to the Gold Coast or Tuen Mun. Motor traffic on this popular route is relatively light and you are rewarded with scenic views of Ma Wan Channel and the bridges, passing Sham Tseng, Tsing Lung Tau, Tai Lam and Siu Lam. 你可由剛建成的荃灣海濱環線出發，沿青山公路海岸一路前往到黃金海岸，甚至屯門。 在這條熱門路線上，車輛相對較少，沿途可欣賞到馬灣海峽及大橋的美景，途經深井、 青龍頭、大欖和小欖。

COVER STORY 封面故事

Mui Wo and South Lantau 梅窝及南大屿山 Lantau Island offers plenty of cycling options. Exploring Mui Wo is arguably the most popular ride in Lantau, especially for the whole family.

You can rent bicycles near the Mui Mo ferry terminal. The ride around Mui Wo taking you to Silvermine Beach, Mui Wo Village, and the Silvermine Waterfall is easy and unhurried. Mui Wo is also a good departure point for rides along Lantau Road to Pui O, Sheung Sha Wan Beaches, Shek Pik Reservoir and Tai O. The 23-kilometre ride to Tai O plus the return trip fits comfortably into less than a day. Or for a real challenge, drop to bottom gear, stand up in the pedals and ride over ‘The Beast’ – the 341-metre pass across the island to Tung Chung. 大嶼山有大量騎行路線可選擇，在梅窩騎單車可以說是大嶼山最受歡迎的活動， 尤其是全家人一起。可以在渡輪碼頭附近的梅窩租用單車，遊覽銀礦灣泳灘、 梅窩村和銀礦瀑布。還可以順着大嶼山公路前往貝澳、上沙灣泳灘、石壁水塘及 大澳。往返大澳全程共23公里，僅需不到一天的時間。推薦冒險家來一場真正的 挑戰，用最低檔的速度，站在踏板上，騎過“野獸”——341米穿過港島到東涌 的路段。

Tung Chung to Sunny Bay 东涌至欣澳 The new town of Tung Chung also offers a dedicated cycling track network that connects most of its built-up areas including Tung Chung MTR Station. For a longer but mostly flat ride, take the bike route from Tung Chung to Sunny Bay, entering the cycling network at Tung Chung Crescent and ending your ride at the Disneyland Inspiration Lake. The 15-kilometre coastal ride is scenic and relaxing. 東涌新市鎮設有專用單車徑，連接大部分樓宇，包括東涌地鐵站。想要距 離長但大部分平坦的騎行，推薦從東涌到欣澳的自行車道，在東涌欣澳站 進入自行車道，在迪士尼迪欣湖結束騎行。 15 公里的風景之旅是足夠讓你 放鬆下來。

Cheung Chau

长洲

What is a trip to Cheung Chau without cycling around its various points of interest? Cycling is a way of life for residents as no cars are allowed on the island, so you might as well join the crowd.

There are plenty of bike rental shops near the ferry pier that you arrive at. It’s an excellent way to pedal your way all over the island including the town itself, the beaches, the temples and Cheung Po Tsai Cave. Free from motor traffic, just watch out for pedestrians and other cyclists. 不騎車去長洲各個景點就是白來香港，騎自行車是長洲居民的生活方 式，因為島上不允許汽車通行，所以既來之則安之，加入騎行人群。渡 輪碼頭附近有許多自行車出租店。騎自行車遊覽全島是絕佳方式，可以 看看城鎮本身、海灘、寺廟和張保仔洞。這里遠離機動車，騎行只要注 意行人和其他騎自行車的人即可。

Lamma Island

南丫岛

Another popular weekend destination where cycling is common. There are bike rental shops at both Yung Shue Wan and Sok Kwu Wan. The Family Trail connecting the two villages is suitable for biking, although there is a moderate uphill climb to get over the hill ridge. It’s a faster way to enjoy scenic views of the villages, beaches, South China Sea and mangroves, and getting some healthy exercise while doing it. 是很受歡迎的周末騎行行目的地。榕樹灣和索罟灣均設有單車出租店。連接 兩個村莊的家庭步道適合騎自行車，不過翻越山脊需要上坡。沿途可以欣賞 村莊、海灘、南海和紅樹林，過程中不僅身心放鬆，還得到了鍛煉。

Olympic Mountain Bike Trail 香港奥运径自行车道 Some of the mountain bike trails can be difficult and challenging while others are easy rides. The Olympic Trail between Tung Chung and Mui Wo is convenient and undemanding, a paved path with only one section of steps, which you’ll likely have to dismount for. The pleasant 12 kilometres is largely flat or gentle climbing, suitable for kids and less experienced riders as well as aspiring medallists. 一些山地自行車道是具有挑戰性的，不過也有容易的。位於 東涌和梅窩之間的香港奧運徑既方便又不費力，是一條只有 一段台階的小路，到這停一下推車過就行。令人愉快的12公 里大部分是平坦或是平緩的上坡，適合兒童和缺乏經驗的騎 手以及有挑戰精神的騎手。

G N O K G N O H OF 港 翡 翠 般 群 岛 香

The outlying islands of Hong Kong are nature’s outstanding endowment to this bustling metropolis.

We pick some of Hong Kong’s most idyllic and scenic ones for an enjoyable day out! 离岛是这座繁华大都市的最佳自然风光。我们挑选了一些极具田园诗风情的岛屿，帮助您度过愉快的一天！

I

C

f there is any silver lining to the Covid-19 pandemic, which has severely restricted local Hong Kong residents’ ability to travel abroad, it is that many of us are discovering the city’s diverse geography and taking to its great outdoors, of which the outlying islands comprise a key part.

ovid-19 大流行限制了香港本地居民出國 旅行，所以越來越多本地人開始探索當地 自然風光，欣賞這座城市多樣的地理環境，享受豐 富的戶外活動，離島是絕對不容錯過的。

Remarkably, Hong Kong has more than 260 islands. As the city’s urban landscape intensified, some of the bigger islands were connected to the city via tunnels and bridges. They include Lantau Island, Hong Kong’s largest island, Tsing Yi, Ap Lei Chau, Stonecutter’s Island, Ma Wan Island, and Chek Lap Kok, where the airport is located. Others were joined with the mainland as part of constructing the High Island Reservoir and Plover Cove Reservoir from the sea or as part of reclamation developments such as Fat Tong Chau in Tseung Kwan O.

值得一提的是，香港擁有 260 多個島嶼。隨着 香港的發展，一些最大的島嶼通過隧道和橋樑與城 市相連。包括香港最大的島嶼——大嶼山、青衣、 鴨脷洲、昂船洲、馬灣和機場所在的赤鱲角等。另 一些則與內地合作，例如興建萬宜水庫及船灣淡水 湖，或作為填海發展計劃的一部分，例如將軍澳的 佛堂洲。

So, in our 2021 look at the outlying islands, we are choosing those that are accessible only by boat, but are served by either regular or ‘kai to ferry’ services.

Here is an eclectic selection of eleven emerald isles that we recommend for a visit, offering stunning topography, pristine beaches, rustic villages, picturesque hiking trails, cool rock formations and good seafood restaurants, with each packing its own charm and character.

所以，對於2021年版的離島，我們選擇了只能 乘船到達的島嶼，可以乘坐普通船隻或渡輪到達。 這裡有 11 個不拘一格的離島，值得一遊，迷人的 地形、原始的海灘、質樸的村莊、風景如畫的遠足 小徑、涼爽的岩層和優質的海鮮餐廳，每一個都有 自己的魅力。

Enjoy your excursion and be sure to take photos aplenty.

d n a l s I a m m a L 丫岛 南

Hong Kong’s third-largest island is home to several sleepy villages and is popular with Westerners, who relish the slower pace of life here. For a sceneryladen route, we suggest you take a ferry from Central to Yung Shue Wan village, walk through the village then follow the paved path to Sok Kwu Wan. You will pass by a popular stand selling beancurd pudding before reaching Hung Shing Yeh Beach, a pretty, sandy beach worth lingering at before you ascend a modest hill. The walk up to the ridge offers panoramic views of the island and the power plant beyond. Descending the hill, you’ll pass by some rustic villages, mangroves and a Tin Hau Temple before arriving at Sok Kwu Wan, where a row of seafood restaurants await you. Cap your day with a yummy live-catch seafood meal before taking the ferry back to Central from the adjacent pier. Central Ferry Pier No. 4. 南丫島是香港第三大島嶼，島上有幾個寧靜的村莊，也是西方移民的聚居地，他們 喜歡這裡較慢的生活節奏。如果您想要一條風景優美的路線，我們建議您乘坐渡輪 從中環到榕樹灣，穿過榕樹灣，沿着鋪好的小路走到索罟灣。會經過一個賣豆花的 小攤，到達洪聖爺海灘，美麗的沙灘值得在留下拍照，隨後爬上一座小山丘，沿着 山脊向上走，可以看到島上和遠處的發電廠的全景。下山後，你會經過鄉村、紅樹 林和天后廟，然後到達索罟灣，那裡有一排海鮮餐廳等着你。在從鄰近碼頭乘渡輪 返回中環之前，以美味的海鮮餐結束一天遊玩。中環四號碼頭

u a h C Cheung 洲 长

Like Lamma Island, Cheung Chau has long been a favourite destination, so it can get quite busy on weekends. There is a small but busy fishing harbour and a lively village with shops, restaurants and bars lining the waterfront promenade and the narrow lanes behind, all of which are well worth exploring for souvenirs and a slice of local life.

There are bikes for hire to help you go a little further. Temple hopping is also popular as the island is home to several, including the Pak Tai Temple, heart of the famous Cheung Chau Bun Festival. Nearby Tung Wan Beach is ideal for swimming. Hiking trails abound, including one to explore the famous Cheung Po Tsai Pirates’ cave and others offering scenic vantage points. Central Ferry Pier No. 6. 和南丫島一樣，長洲一直是人們最喜歡的目的地，所以周末會很擁擠。這 裡有一個小而繁忙的漁港和一個充滿活力的村莊，海濱長廊和後面狹窄的 小巷裡都有商店、餐館和酒吧，所有這些都非常值得探索，還可以購買紀 念品和體驗當地生活。可以租自行車出行玩得更遠。逛寺廟也很受歡迎， 島上有幾個寺廟，包括著名的長洲搶包山比賽舉辦地——北帝廟。不遠處 的東灣泳灘非常適合游泳。遠足徑比比皆是，推薦那條可以到達著名的張 保仔洞的遠足徑，沿途風景優美。中環6號碼頭。

Peng Chau is a small and quaint island just off east Lantau, not far from Discovery Bay. Several thousand people live here – either born of multiple local generations, or drawn to its unhurried lifestyle and relative isolation.

Stepping onto the island, it won’t take you long before you feel the same vibe. You can take your time checking out eclectic arts and crafts shops, including a former leather factory converted into an art space. There is a heritage trail worth following (an easy hike) and a modest scamper up to the highest point, Finger Hill, rewards you with a 360-degree view of Lantau, Hong Kong Island and the South China Sea.

This pristine island lying just off the Clearwater Bay Peninsula in Sai Kung District is a real hidden gem.

Reachable only on weekends and public holidays, Tung Lung Island is famous for rock climbing along its north eastern coastline. There is an old abandoned fort with a campsite nearby. A scenic footpath offers unimpeded views of the sea and the peninsula across. It won’t take long before you are disconnected from the hustle and bustle of the city only minutes away.

Tap Mun

) (Grass Island

塔门（草岛）

If you want to visit a totally unspoilt island and fishing village, this small island off the Sai Kung Peninsula is out of the way but well worth a visit.

As you step off the boat, you can almost feel time slowing down as Tap Mun’s traditional fishing village still ticks to the old rhythms of life. It’s 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. To get there, 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. 如果您想參觀一個完全未受破壞的島嶼和漁村，西貢半島附近的這個小島 雖然偏僻，但非常值得一遊。當您下船時，會感覺時間變慢了，因為塔門 的傳統漁村仍然保持着古老的生活節奏。環島步行只需一小時。過程中會 看到黃牛在田野裡漫步，小漁船在附近晃動。有幾家商店和餐館：一定要 嚐嚐當地海膽炒飯。 可以從馬料水乘坐渡輪，或者從西貢鎮乘坐巴士到黃石碼頭，乘坐渡輪 30 分鐘即可到達島上。

O t a K & u a Ap Ch 吉澳 鸭洲、

Two fascinating islands in one outing – you can’t get better than that!

Located in Mirs Bay in the remote northeastern corner of Hong Kong and within sight of Shenzhen’s Yantian container port, both islands are part of the Hong Kong Global Geopark. Ap Chau is purportedly the city’s smallest inhabited island that is accessible, while the nearby Kat O, or Crooked Island, is considerably larger. A scheduled kaito ferry from Ma Liu Shui in the New Territories will take you to both islands. At Ap Chau, you’ll have an hour to enjoy the natural scenery of the small islet and the Ap Chau Story Room, which is more than enough time. Then on to Kao O which was once a thriving village with more than 4,000 inhabitants – mostly fishermen and farmers. Most have since migrated abroad, and the island is now just another quiet outpost. You can take the heritage trail, visit its story room inside the village’s Tin Hau temple, and enjoy lunch at the island’s only restaurant. The close-up views of a bustling container port make for a stark contrast to the quietness. Kaito ferry from Ma Liu Shui or Sha Tau Kok. 一次遊兩個島嶼，沒有比這更好的了！這兩座島嶼都位於香港東北方的大鵬 灣，與深圳的鹽田集裝箱港口相望，都是香港世界地質公園一部分。鴨洲據說 是該市最小的、可到達的、有人居住的島嶼，附近的吉澳要大得多。來自新界 馬料水的定期渡輪將載客前往兩座島嶼。在鴨洲，一個小時的時間欣賞小島的 自然風光和鴨洲故事室，綽綽有餘。然後前往吉澳，它曾經是一個繁榮的村 莊，超過 4,000 名漁民和農民居住在此。後來大部分移居國外，現在的島嶼就 變得很安靜。您可以沿着文物徑，參觀村里天后廟，並在島上唯一的餐廳享用 午餐。這邊的寧靜和熙熙攘攘的集裝箱港口形成鮮明對比。 從馬料水或沙頭角搭乘渡輪。 SEPTEMBER 2021

This month, CityLife reconnects with The Square at Exchange Square, one of the city’s finer Cantonese restaurants, to try out its brand-new menu. 本月，《東方之珠》再次到訪香港最好的粵菜餐廳之一——交易廣場的「翠玉軒」，品嚐其 全新的經典粵菜主菜單。

e are long familiar with The Square, a fine-dining Cantonese restaurant located at Exchange Square. The restaurant garnered a Michelin star for seven years in a row a few years back and holds a reputation as one of the better Cantonese restaurants in town. Yet, tucked away on the mezzanine floor of Exchange Square lobby, it is easy to miss. As it had been some time since our last visit, we were keen to reconnect with The Square with the announcement of its offering of a brand-new menu.

Hungarian pig known for its strong and juicy taste. The meat is prepared char siu–style, complete with a final smoking to enhance the flavour of the sweetly tender and succulent meat.

The Square occupies one half of the mezzanine floor of the Exchange Square Podium, a deceptively large space.

The spacious dining area, which follows the curvy layout of the mezzanine, is comfortably and cleanly decked out. The tables by the open-air balustrade offer an engaging view of the expansive podium below.

Another special dish awaits – Pan-fried Japanese Sea Cucumber Stuffed with Minced Pork and Shrimp Served with Rock Rice ($248). This dish was new to us, and what a delight! Its presentation is exquisite, and the preparation is meticulous. The tasty pork and shrimp stuffing contrasts well with the sea cucumber and its broth. The rock rice enjoys similar texture to glutinous rice but is less chewy – we liked it. Next, we tried Braised Sliced Chinese zucchini in pumpkin sauce ($138). It was savoury.

For our dinner, we chose from several of the chef’s recommended dishes. For the new menu, the seasoned chefs at The Square aim to combine traditional refined Cantonese cooking with modern sensibilities, so to speak.

That means creating dishes that make inventive and flexible use of ingredients while upholding the core Cantonese cooking methods.

We started our dinner with a selection of appetisers: Fresh Bean Curd Sheets and Chinese Yam in Sesame Dressing ($78) and Deep-fried Eggplant with Salted Egg Yolk and Pork Floss ($88). We quite like the slightly crunchy texture of the zucchini and the savoury flavour of the egg yolk with the eggplant.

Steamed Seabass in Salted Potherb Mustard ($398) is excellent. The seabass bites tender and melts in the mouth. Next was Barbecued Mangalica Pork ($398) a

22

www.hkcitylife.com | SEPTEMBER 2021

Fish Maw Soup with Crab Meat ($198) followed.

Soup is always a reliable benchmark of Cantonese cooking prowess and this one passed muster handsomely. The combination of fish maw and crab meat is a creative take, and we like its rich and umami flavour.

Our final dish, Braised Rice Vermicelli with Spanish Shrimp ($128), is another imaginative creation in which the strong prawn flavour nicely takes control of the blander vermicelli. We finished the dinner with a wellchosen fruit platter.

We should note that The Square still serves excellent dim sum during lunch. We were impressed with the menu though – well-crafted dishes, inventive and bold use of new ingredients, and still distinctively Cantonese cooking.

If you want a special Cantonese fine-dining experience, we highly recommend giving it a try.■

一。然而，餐廳隱藏在交易廣場大堂的夾層樓，很容易錯過。自上次訪問 已經有一段時間了，本月我們再次到訪翠玉軒，品嚐其提供的全新菜單。 餐廳佔據了交易廣場平台層的一半，寬敞的用餐區遵循夾層的曲線佈 局，裝飾舒適整潔。露天欄杆旁的桌子為食客欣賞下方廣闊的平台提供了 場地。 晚餐我們是在廚師推薦的幾道菜中選擇的，可以說是翠玉軒新菜單， 經驗豐富的廚師將傳統精緻粵菜與現代感相結合。這意味着在堅持粵菜的 核心烹飪方法的同時，靈活地使用食材，創造出全新菜餚。 晚餐從開胃菜開始：有機腐衣鮮淮山（ $78 ）及、金沙肉鬆脆茄子 （$88）我們非常喜歡西葫蘆略微鬆脆的質地和蛋黃的鹹味。 雪裡紅醬蒸海鱸魚（$398），鱸魚鮮嫩，入口即化。接下來是煙燻鬈毛 豬叉燒（$398），匈牙利國寶食材棉羊豬為原料，肉嫩味濃。肉經燻烤後 慢火燒製，再用櫻花木輕燻，煙燻香氣撲鼻。 接下來是石鍋蟹肉花膠湯（$198）。靚湯一直是評價粵菜烹飪技藝的 標準，這道有創意的湯非常美味，花膠和蟹肉的搭配很有新意，我們喜歡 它豐富而鮮美的味道。 另一道特色菜——煎釀日本關東遼參伴岩米飯（$248/位）。這道菜對 我們來說是驚喜，整個菜品呈現出精緻二字，美味的豬肉和蝦餡與海參及 其肉湯形成恰當融合。岩飯的質地與糯米相似，但沒有那麼筋道——讓人 難忘。之後，我們嘗了金湯綠柳（$138），這菜清新美味。 晚餐的最後一道菜是西班牙紅蝦燜米粉（$128），這道富有想像力的 菜，把味道濃郁的蝦味和清淡的米粉巧妙地結合。最後以水果拼盤結束了 晚餐。 值得一提的是，翠玉軒在午餐期間還提供點心。餐廳美味令人回味無 窮——精心製作的菜餚，創造性地使用新食材，保留原有粵菜的精華。如 果您想要一個特別的粵菜美食體驗，我們強烈建議您嘗試一下。■ SEPTEMBER 2021

Y

Toritei Set 鳥亭

akiniku is a popular cuisine in Japan and increasingly in Hong Kong as well. A close cousin of the Korean-style BBQ from which it is supposedly derived, yakiniku features bite-size cuts of beef as its mainstay, augmented by other meats including pork, chicken and seafood.

Hong Kong’s latest yakiniku restaurant is Saburo Japanese Yakiniku, which we think will be a hit with beef lovers and yakiniku enthusiasts alike. Located in the fashionable H Zentre in Tsim Sha Tsui, Saburo aims to deliver a high-end, luxury yakiniku omakase dining experience, serving top-quality wagyu beef cuts and other quality meats, seafood and vegetables.

About the beef first, and good news for lovers of wagyu beef: Saburo manages to source A5 wagyu beef from four renowned regions: Iga, Himeji, Miyazaki and Kagoshima, each producing different meat quality in terms of flavour, marbling and texture. Much of the beef – such as Iga – is rarely available for export due to strong domestic demand.

So, kudos to Saburo for being able to bring in these prized supplies from Japan. In addition, Saburo offers several rare and coveted cuts of wagyu beef in its omakase menus.

The 3,000-square-foot restaurant is spacious and well laid out. A kitchen plus bar counter dominates the space upon entry; the dining areas are subtly portioned to offer seclusion. The décor is minimalist but elegant and features abundant natural materials to offer a relaxed and comfortable ambience. All dining tables are installed with grill sets that use a smokeless ventilation system.

Saburo offers several Omakase sets for dinner. Its signature set is the Kyoraku Omakase Set ($1,280), essentially the deluxe set. The course includes Appetiser,

24

www.hkcitylife.com | SEPTEMBER 2021

Seasonal Sashimi (3 types), Wagyu (7 types, including rare cuts), Seafood Platter, Second Appetiser, Soup, Meal and Dessert. Beef takes centre stage here; some of the rare cuts include Oyster Blade – a small area just below the chuck that is chewy and flavourful and chuck tender. The others include sirloin, ribeye, round and tri-tip.

We also tried two more omakase sets. Ryotel ($880), another beef set that features three cuts of wagyu beef plus the same complements as the other set. Other than beef, Saburo serves the Toritei Set ($580), which features Chicken (Awaodori Chicken Thigh, Wing), Pork (Kagoshima Kurobuta Loin Rib).

Beef is best seasoned lightly to fully bring out the flavours. Saburo uses several quality flavoured salts that include charcoal, basil, mustard, scallop and oyster.

For diners wanting the meats perfectly grilled, Saburo offers seats at the bar counter with all the meats cooked and served by the restaurant staff.

You can also see through the glass partitions into the kitchen to see how the food is prepared. The bar counter seats and available on a first-come, firstserved basis.

Our visit to Saburo certainly exceeded our expectations – in the quality of the food served, the ambience and the whole yakiniku experience.

Clearly, Saburo has set a new bar in high-end yakiniku dining. So, if you crave deliciously grilled wagyu beef, a visit to Saburo should sate your desire. We recommend it.■

日 式燒肉在日本很受歡迎，在香港也越來越受歡迎。感覺日式燒肉是 韓國烤肉的近親，它的主要特色是一口大小的牛肉，配以豬肉、雞

Pazzi Isshokenmei For ardent foodies, the great thing about living in Hong Kong is the abundant opportunities to try out new restaurants offering innovative cuisines, from mainstream to the downright eclectic and eccentric. The newly opened Pazzi Isshokenmei, which serves traditional Italian cuisine blended with Japanese Izakaya style, is firmly at the latter end of that spectrum.

Pazzi Isshokenmei is the creation of local restaurateur Philip Chow, a 20year veteran of the local F&B scene. In his latest venture, Chow has created a dining concept that bridges the expressive West with the traditional, disciplined East, as expressed in its name, décor, and of course its inventive dishes, using largely fresh seasonal ingredients imported from Japan and Italy.

Occupying the second floor of the prominent H Queen’s, Pazzi Isshokenmei is bright and airy, the restaurant’s high ceiling complementing its stylish décor.

For our lunch, we chose items from the Lunch Special, a three-course selection comprising a starter, main course and dessert. We began with Salmon Tataki, (daiken, coriander, chili); Lobster Miso Soup (daiken, tofu, miso) for an additional $98, and Beef Tartare (pickle, egg emulsion) for an additional $98, with a distinctive and yummy beef seasoning.

For the main course, the choices vie for attention. Alioli Soba (garlic, chili, shichimi) ($258), which pairs Japanese soba noodles with Italian-based spices and garnish, is an Italian inspiration that can give any quality pasta dish a run for its money. Miso Crab Tagliolini (crab meat and paste, miso) ($398) is another delicious concoction, adorning fresh Tagliolini pasta with Japanese crab meat and miso. Our last main was the Rib Eye (morels, potato) ($488), a tender steak, nicely grilled.

Green Tea Tiramisu Cremia ($68 extra),a green tea flavour fusion delight with tasty Cremia ice cream, which was made from a specially ordered machine from Japan, one of only two purportedly available in Hong Kong, rounded out our meal nicely.

對於熱愛美食的人來說，住在香港的好處是有很多機會嘗試新餐廳，從不拘一格 到古怪創新的各類美食。新開張的 Pazzi Isshokenmei 在傳統意大利美食中融合了日 本居酒屋風格，非常神奇。

Pazzi Isshokenmei 是本土餐館老闆 Philip Chow 創立的，他擁有 20 多年的資深 餐飲經營經驗。在他的最新項目中，創造了一種將富有表現力的西方與傳統、嚴謹的 東方聯繫起來的餐飲概念，正如它的名字、裝飾，當然還有它的創意菜餚，餐廳主要 使用從日本和意大利進口的新鮮時令食材。 餐廳位於著名的 H Queen 餐廳的二樓，光線明亮，通風良好，高聳的天花板與時 尚裝潢相映生輝。 午餐我們選擇了午市精選套餐，當中有三道菜，包括前菜、主菜和甜點。我們選 擇的前菜有三文魚他他（大根、香菜、辣椒）、龍蝦味噌湯（大豆、豆腐、味噌）和韃 靼牛肉（泡菜、蛋液）後兩道前菜各要額外支付98港幣——我們非常喜歡鮮牛肉的味 道。 對於主菜，可選擇的美味非常獨特。蒜香橄油蕎麥麵（$268）將日本蕎麥麵與意 大利香料搭配在一起，靈感源於意大利拿坡里的「香蒜橄欖油意粉」，可以與優質意 大利面相媲美。味噌蟹肉全蛋手工麵（$398）同樣美味，將新鮮的 Tagliolini 意大利面 與日本蟹肉和味噌混合在一起。最後的主菜是肋眼扒配羊肚菌、土豆（$488）肉質鮮 嫩，火候恰到好處。 最後，我們點了抹茶提拉米蘇軟雪糕（另加$68）作甜品，一種綠茶味的混合美味 甜點，配以著名日本 Cremia 軟雪糕，為我們的美食之旅錦上添花。

Pazzi Isshokenmei 提供優質葡萄酒，包括精選的 2017 年 Domaine GeantetPansiot Gervey-Chambertin，來自勃艮第的果味黑皮諾，是用餐必配。 我們非常推薦 Pazzi Isshokenmei，餐廳提供一流的創新美食、高檔裝飾和輕鬆氛 圍。與您所愛的人一起去，享受一次愉快的用餐體驗。快去試試吧。

2/F, H Queen’s, 80 Queen’s Road Central, Hong Kong 中環皇后大道中 80 號 H Queen’s 2 樓；2555 0666

Pazzi Isshokenmei offers a quality collection of wines, including our selection, the 2017 Domaine Géantet-Pansiot Gevrey-Chambertin a balanced, fruity pinot noir from Burgundy.

We are hugely enamoured with Pazzi Isshokenmei. The restaurant offers an excellent package of innovative and inventive gourmet cuisine, upscale décor, and relaxed ambience. It’s a good place to go with your loved ones or for a nice social gathering. We highly recommend it.

DINING GUIDE 飲食指南

Nami Izakaya 浪‧居酒屋 Soundwill Plaza in Causeway Bay is one of the city’s premier high-rise food buildings, home to a plethora of restaurants. The recent grand opening of Nami Izakaya will certainly add to its already stellar line-up of distinctive outlets.

Nami offers traditional Japanese izakaya (snacks and alcohol, akin to pubs serving snacks, or tapas bars) dining popular during Japan’s Edu period. The outlet is lively, flamboyant and colourful, its expansive premise is decorated in red and dark brown wood, accented by bright-coloured hand-painted murals by local Hong Kong artists depicting architecture and street scenes of Kyoto.

Nami offers an extensive menu of tasty izakaya snacks (over 50 items), and other popular Japanese items including sashimi, sushi, skewers, shabu-shabu, sukiyaki, donburi, and udon to complement its large selection of sakes, beers, and wines.

True to expectations, our meal was a cavalcade of delectable dishes.

For snacks, we had Deep-fried Tofu with Crab Meat & Crab Roe ($78), Lobster Salad with Crab Roe ($78), Japanese Sea Grapes ($58) from Okinawa, Angler Fish Liver ($78), Wagyu Beef Tataki ($198), which is so tender it practically melts in the mouth, and Scallop in Lemon Soy Sauce ($98). For soup, we tried the rather flavourful Seafood Soup in Teapot ($68/ serving).

The sashimi and sushi are excellent too – fresh and tender. Supreme Sashimi Platter ($568) is a real treat as we devoured a large plate of succulent seafood including toro, snapper, red bream, spot prawn and scallop. For sushi, we had Premium Sushi Platter ($298) and Nami Sushi ($128) – both good. Also tasty are Unadon ($198) – rice topped with a footlong whole eel grilled and marinated with house-made sauce, Deluxe Trip Don ($228), and Crab Meat and Crab Paste in Shell ($168), a yummy delicacy.

位於銅鑼灣的金朝陽中心廣場是香港首屈一指的高端美食擁有地之一。 浪‧居酒屋最近開業，無疑將為其已經很有特色的門店陣容錦上添花。 浪‧居酒屋提供傳統的日本居酒屋小吃（小吃和酒類，類似於小酒館或小 吃吧），在日本江戶時代很受歡迎。這家店活潑、華麗、色彩繽紛，寬敞的店 面採用紅色和深啡色木材作主要裝潢色系，輔以香港本地藝術家設計的手繪壁 畫，描繪京都的建築和街景。 浪‧居酒屋提供豐富美味的居酒屋小吃（超過 50 種），以及其他受歡迎 的日本料理，包括生魚片、壽司、串燒、日式涮鍋、壽喜燒、蓋飯和烏冬面， 還有繁多的清酒、啤酒和葡萄酒。 和往常一樣，迎接我們的是源源不斷的美味菜餚。我們點了 蟹肉飛魚 子炸豆腐 （ $78 ）、 龍蝦蟹子沙律 （ $78 ）、 沖繩海葡萄 （ $58 ）、 安康魚 肝 （ $78 ）、 日本火炙生和牛 （ $198 ） 入口即化，還有檸檬帶子醬油刺身 （$98）。特別推薦海鮮土瓶蒸（$68 /份）味道很好。 生魚片和壽司都非常好吃——又鮮又嫩。廚師精選至尊刺身盛（Supreme 生魚片拼盤， $568 ）是真正的美食盛宴，我們狼吞虎咽地吃了一大盤多汁 的海鮮，包括托羅、鯛魚、紅鯛魚、對蝦和扇貝。壽司方面，推薦上壽司盛 （$298）和 Nami 壽司（$128）。同樣美味的還有原條鰻魚丼（$198）—— 米飯上放着一英尺長的整條鰻魚，用自製醬汁醃製烤熟，還有 特色三色丼 （$228），還有美味的甲羅燒（$168）。 最後，我們享用了菠蘿冰沙（$78）和柚子冰沙（$68）。自家品牌浪清酒 （$580/720毫升）也很不錯。 浪‧居酒屋注定會成為香港流行的餐飲熱點之一。無論是與您的家人還是 朋友一起來，在這裡用餐都是有趣的用餐體驗。試一試。

1/F, Soundwill Plaza 2 – Midtown, 1-29 Tang Lung Street, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong 銅鑼灣登龍街1-29號金朝陽中心2期Midtown 1樓；2383 4038

We finished the hearty meal with Pineapple Sorbet ($78) and Yuzu Sorbet ($68). The house brand Nami Sake ($580/720ml) also hit the spot nicely.

Nami is destined to become another popular dining hotspot in the city.

Whether it’s with your family or a group of friends, a meal at Nami makes for a fun and filling dining experience. Give it a try.

DINING GUIDE 飲食指南

Momoz Given the rising popularity of Nepalese cuisine, another new Nepalese restaurant is always welcome. That is certainly the case with Momoz, a new Nepalese concept restaurant serving momos (Nepalese dumplings) and rolls. Momoz, with outlets in Tsim Sha Tsui and Lan Kwai Fong, is the first brand launched by Cygnus Concepts, a new local restaurant group specialising in presenting niche and unique regional culinary concepts.

Momoz aims to create authentic momos and rolls, albeit reinterpreted with international twists in taste, appearance and scent.

It sources all its spices from Nepal and the momos are made from scratch daily. What distinguishes Momoz though is the many colourful momos that it serves on its menu. These visual treats, which are made from natural ingredients and designed as “one-bite” size, are steamed to order.

We tried a wide selection of momos, all deliciously tasty. They included Classic Chicken Momo ($88/8 pieces), a traditional Nepalese favourite, served with homemade chutney. Classic Vegetarian Momo ($78/8pcs) featuring a dozen ingredients and a spinach-infused dough, thus its green colour, is excellent also. A locally inspired momo is Cha Siu Momo ($88/8pcs) with a beetroot-infused purple dough. Other exotic selections we tried included Swiss Italian Cheese Momo ($98/8pcs) made with Swiss Emmental and mozzarella cheeses, Kimchi Momo ($98/8pcs), Katsu Chicken Curry Fried Momo ($88/8pcs) and FITH Lamb Momo ($98/8pcs).

The rolls are tasty too. Each filling is rolled into the paratha flatbread (roti). We tried the traditional Lamb Rogan Josh Roll ($108), and Dynamite Prawn Roll ($118), a US-inspired treat in which fresh shrimp is deep-fried and topped with homemade cocktail sauce and wrapped in a roll with coleslaw.

鑑於尼泊爾美食越來越受歡迎，Momoz 這家新的尼泊爾概念餐廳開幕即巔 峰，餐廳供應特色尼泊爾餃子和卷物。 Momoz 在尖沙咀和蘭桂坊設有兩家分店， 由全新本地餐飲集團 Cygnus Concepts 呈獻的一系列創新餐飲概念，他們專注於 展示小眾和獨特的區域烹飪概念。

Momoz 旨在創造正宗的尼泊爾餃子和卷物，不過在口味、視覺和氣味方面進 行了重新詮釋。香料都從尼泊爾採購，每天都是新鮮製作。與眾不同之處是它在菜 單上提供許多五顏六色的餃子。這些餃子都是天然成分，設計成「一口」的完美份 量，都會即叫即蒸。 我們試了很多口味的餃子，都很好吃。包括尼泊爾傳統美食——傳統雞肉餃 子（$88/8 隻），佐以自製酸辣醬。傳統素菜餃子（$78/8 隻）以十幾種原料和 菠菜麵團為特色，所以都是綠色的。還有一種受當地啟發的餃子是港式叉燒餃子 （$88/8 隻），面皮是浸有甜菜根的紫色麵團。還有多款異國情調，意大利芝士 餃子（$98/8 隻），由瑞士艾門塔勒奶酪和馬蘇里拉奶酪製成，韓國泡菜 momo （$98/8 隻），日式咖哩吉列雞餃子（$88/8 隻）和菲斯羊肉餃子（$98/8隻）。 蛋捲亦是尼泊爾中的另一道代表菜式，餡料用蛋餅包捲起來。我們嚐了港式叉 燒尼泊爾蛋捲（$108）和醬汁炸蝦尼泊爾蛋捲（$118），這是一種以美國口味為靈

感的炸蝦卷，裡面是炸新鮮的蝦，淋上自製的雞尾酒醬，再用涼拌捲心菜捲包裹。

Momoz 還供應當地和其他各地區的精釀啤酒以及採用獨特透明罐裝的新鮮 調製雞尾酒。我們推介：Hot Virgin Chili Mojito 和 Homemade Lemonade（每款 $42）。 無論你是想擁有全新的就餐體驗，還是想品嚐美味的尼泊爾餃子和蛋捲， Momoz 都是絕佳選擇。一定要試一試。

Shop no. 3, G/F, Lee Wai Commercial Building, 1&3 hart Avenue, Tsim Sha Tsui 尖沙咀赫德道 1-3 號利威商業大廈地下 3 號鋪 (Tel: 3752 2670) and 6 Lan Kwai Fong, Central, Hong Kong 中環蘭桂坊 6 號 (Tel: 2898 3129)

Momoz also serves local and regional craft beers plus freshly made cocktails that are presented in unique, transparent cans. The drinks include Hot Virgin Chili Mojito and House Lemonade ($42 each).

Whether it’s venturing out for a new dining experience or just being in the mood for delicious momos and rolls, Momoz is a fun and excellent choice. Be sure to give it a try.

Arthur Hacker paves the history of one Hong Kong’s busiest roads. 亞瑟·克赫在香港最繁忙的道路上，與你緬懷過去

W

hen Lord Palmerston, the British Foreign Secretary, heard that Captain Elliot had founded a British colony in Hong Kong in January 1841 he was not pleased. He wrote an angry letter to Elliot in which he described the new colony as "a barren rock with hardly a house upon it." He had expected something rather grander.

Hong Kong Island had no towns and no roads. The small land population lived in a few remote and isolated fishing villages, the largest being Aberdeen which in Cantonese is called Heung Gong Tsai (little Hong Kong). Elliot named the original British settlement Queenstown. lt was later renamed Victoria after Britain's young queen. lt is now known as Central District.

Footpaths connected the villages. One of these rough tracks ran along the northern shore of Hong Kong Island. Viewed from the hills, this wiggly little track, which was used as a towpath by local junk captains, was said to resemble the drawstring that Chinese ladies tied around their waists. This is why, according to Dr Eitel, an early Hong Kong historian, it was known as Kwan Tai Lo, which he translated as Petticoat String Road.

ln 1841 the Royal Engineers laid a new road on top of the towpath. With a bewildering lack of imagination they named this new highway Main Street, but in March 1842 the road was officially renamed Queen's Road in honour of the British monarch. ln the Victorian era many important buildings stood between St John's Cathedral and the Clock Tower at the junction of Pedder Street. On the corner where the Landmark is today, (15 Queen's Road Central), stood the Hong Kong Hotel, the first luxury hostelry in the colony. Nearby was the first headquarters building of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank. It had a massive octagonal dome that stood 100 feet above the ground, A new headquarters was erected in 1935 that was the largest building east of Suez at the time.

The bank’s current main office at 1 Queen's Road Central was designed by Sir Norman Foster and covers the site of the original bank and a bit of the old City Hall, a beautiful building designed by the French architect M.Hermite. This cultural centre was financed by public donations and housed a museum, a library and the Theatre

在 一八四一年一月，當英國外務秘書長帕 麥爾斯頓勳爵（ Lord Palmerston ）得

悉艾列萊隊長（ Captain Elliot ）將香港列為英 國殖民地之時 , 他顯得不甚愉快。於是，他寫了 一封充滿怒氣的信給艾列萊，信中他形容香港為 「一片荒漠的不毛之地」。帕氏認為作為英國殖 民地的應該是一處更華麗的地方。

當時的香港島沒有道路、更沒有市鎮；而 在 一 條 僻 遠 的 漁 村 里 —— 「 香 港 仔 」 ， 只 住 有 少數的居民，人煙稀少。艾列萊本來稱這區作 ‘ Queenstown ’ ( 直譯為：皇后的市鎮 ) ，及後 被大英的年青女皇易名為‘ Victoria ’ ( 維多利 亞 ) ，最後改名為我們現時熟悉的「中區」。 小徑與各村落相互連接，從山上俯瞰，可見 其中一條崎嶇的山徑橫跨港島北面，彎彎曲曲的 迂迴着；這條小徑據說曾被本地的船夫用作「曳 船路」 ( 沿河岸拖船時所行的路 ) ，與女士們系在 腰間的腰帶相似。敬此，香港早期的歷史學者 Eitel 博士稱這條小路為「裙帶路」，英文亦直譯 為‘ Petticoat String Road ’ ( 裙子帶的路 ) 。 在一八四一年，皇家工程師在曳船路的盡處 開闢了一條新的小路，因茫無頭緒 , 只好稱它為 「大街」；而在一八四二年三月 , 該路以英國君 主之名，重新命名為Γ皇后大道」。

Royal, where Queen Victoria's son, Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh, watched a naughty play performed by the Amateur Dramatic Club called Notting Hill. The Prince had opened the City Hall a couple of days earlier, He was Hong Kong's first royal visitor.

On the opposite side of the road, below the cathedral, was another exquisite building called Beaconsfield Arcade. It only came to be built because a Mr Emmanuel Belilios had donated a thousand pounds for the erection of a statue to Lord Beaconsfield. Lord Beaconsfield politely declined the offer, so Belilios named the arcade after his hero. Belilios is best known for using a camel to commute between the Peak and Central. With the opening of the Peak Tramway, the beast became redundant and in a fit of melancholia committed suicide by jumping over a cliff.

Another interesting building was the Ice House that stood at the junction of Battery Path and Ice House Street. ln spite of its name, it did not manufacture ice.

The ice was harvested from icebergs by The American Company and shipped to Hong Kong. The crop arrived in great blocks and was stored in the Ice House. At one time the company was owned by a dubious entrepreneur called George Duddell who ran an illicit craps game in the building. He was also a dishonest auctioneer who once illegally sold a ship to himself at a ridiculously low price... and got caught. ln spite of this chicanery there is a street in Central named after him.■

維多利亞時代，在聖約翰座堂及鐘樓交彙的畢打街上，座落了多 幢顯赫的大廈：在現時置地廣場 ( 皇后大道中 15 號 ) 的角落上，曾是 本港首幢高貴酒店一香港酒店的所在。附近是香港上海匯豐銀行的首 間總行，其八角形的頂部建築離地一百口尺，成為銀行的標記。而新 的總部大樓建於一九三五年，是當時亞洲地區最高的大樓。 現時的匯豐銀行總部矗立在皇后大道中 1 號，以諾文 · 科士打的鬼 匠神工，在銀行原址及由法國建築師 M.Hermite 設計的舊大會堂部 份所在地上建築總行。而舊大會堂則由公眾捐款而建，擁有博物館、 圖書館、皇家影院等，維多利亞皇后的兒子——艾佛王子，即愛丁堡 公爵，亦曾在該影院欣賞由 Amateur 劇團舉辦的風月話劇‘ Notting Hill ’。他亦在香港為大會堂揭幕，是首位訪港的皇室成員。 在皇后大道的另一面，聖約翰座堂的下方矗立着另一幢高級的大 廈，柏拱行 ( 或稱：比更士菲樓 ) (BeaconsfieId Arcade) 。庇利羅士 先生 (EmmanueI BeIiIios) 曾捐出數千磅，希望建造一個比更士菲銅 像，卻被首相婉拒了，庇利羅士則以他祟拜的莢雄之名來為比更士菲 大樓命名。庇利羅士就是那位以駱駝代步，往返山頂及中環的名人。 其後，在纜車站開幕後，它頓時變得沒甚用途，在憂鬱症的陰霾籠罩 下，從懸崖上跳下來自殺 , 到另一片樂土去了。 另一幢有趣的大廈——雪廠，座落在砲台裡及雪廠街的交界上， 雖然名為「雪廠」，但這兒並不是製造雪塊的地方，雪塊其實是從一 間美國公司在雪山上開采的，再運送到香港的雪廠儲存。公司由一名 古惑的生意人佐治 · 都爹利 (George Duddell) 所擁有，據說他曾在大 廈裡進行非法的交易，亦是一名不實的商人；他曾因非法地以極低的 價錢將一艘船售予他的公司而被捕。即使他的惡名遠播，香港其中一 條街道——「都爹利街」還是以其名而命名。■

The interplay between spatial qualities, imagery and the objects presents itself as a Gesamtkunstwerk that is constantly in metamorphosis, transforming the gallery space into a schizophrenic, psychedelic and LARPING-esque (Live Action Role Play) visual experience.

As a material it carries the function and obligation that society applies; the character of the wood is bared to all. Zelehoski’s work is an attempt to re-structure that character through observation. 10/F, H Queen's, 80 Queens Road Central, Central; Tue-Sat: 11am-7pm; 2682 8289

MY HONG KONG

香港精選

Top picks from CityLife’s Concierge of the Month 《東方之珠》為您介紹本月禮賓司推介

Sai Kung Big Wave Bay Beaches

西貢大浪灣海灘

Absolutely the best beaches in Hong Kong – Long, smooth, white sandy beaches with quite shallow water.

You can take number 29 bus from Sai Kung town; it only runs a few times a day, so you need to watch the return schedule. It’s a 45-minute walk to get there.

There is no lifeguard there, so swim with caution. There is a restaurant/store for a quick meal and a place to take a shower. Be sure to enjoy a great seafood meal in Sai Kung.

西貢大浪灣海灘，絕對是香港最好的 海灘——廣闊、光滑的白色沙灘。可 以從西貢市乘坐 NR 29 巴士；每天只 有幾趟，需要注意返回時間表。 下 車後步行45分鐘即可到達，這邊沒 有救生員，游泳要十分小心。這裡有 一家餐廳可以吃快餐，還可以洗澡。 而且，我十分推薦西貢的美味海鮮 大餐。

Thor Chan 陳敏聰 Concierge Manager, Hyatt Regency Hong Kong, Tsim Sha Tsui 香港尖沙咀凱悅酒店 禮賓部

Hotel Industry Career 從業時間薦: 18 years / 年 About Me 關於本人 : My first job after finishing my hospitality diploma was with the Kowloon Shangri-la, starting out as a room attendant and then joining the concierge team because of my outgoing nature. I’ve stayed in concierge ever since – seven years at Kowloon Shangri-la, 10 years at Langham before recently joining Hyatt Regency. I love my job – being able to talk to guests and enjoy the challenge of helping our guests with their requests and problems – this is quite satisfying. I still remember helping a guest with finding a specific brand of running shoes for his trail race the next morning just as the stores were closing. I had to call a store owner I know and asked him to stay over and accommodate him. The guest found the shoes, did the race and was happy. We have remained in touch since! 完成學業後，我的第一份工作是在九龍香格里拉酒店， 做客房服務員，由於我性格外向，隨後被邀請加入了禮 賓部。從那以後，我一直擔任禮賓部工作——在九龍香 格里拉酒店工作了 7 年，加入凱悅酒店之前在朗廷工作 了 10 年。我熱愛這份工作——能夠與客人交談並享受幫 助客人解決他們的要求和問題——這讓我非常愉快。 記得有一次在鞋店都關門時，我幫助一位要參加田徑賽 的客人找到了一雙特定品牌的跑鞋，打電話給我認識的 店主來接待他。客人買到了合適的鞋子，順利參加 比賽，從那以後至今我們一直保持聯繫！

Favourite Hong Kong activity : 最喜歡香港的活動和興趣？

I love the outdoors and I regularly hike and participate in trail races, including the 100-km MacLehose Trail. I love to eat local food – wonton noodles from Lau Sum Kee, egg tarts from Tai Cheong Bakery and pineapple buns from Kam Wah Cafe. 我喜歡戶外活動，經常遠足和參加越野賽，包括麥理浩徑 100 公里。喜歡香港美食——我特別推介劉森記雲吞 麵、泰昌蛋撻和金華冰室菠蘿包，每一款都是地道經 典美食。

What I love about Hong Kong : 最喜歡香港哪裡？

The wonderful outdoors, for sure, and the food – such a wide range of choices, and with our public transport, everything is so easy to get to. 香港有着各種多元化的戶外活動，還有種類繁多的小吃， 便捷的交通——去哪裡都很方便。

Bonus Recommendation 精心推荐 :

1

Dried Seafood Street in Sheung Wan and Sai Ying Pun. It’s uniquely Hong Kong, and probably the largest gathering of dried seafood stores in the world. If you like the smell of dried fish, scallops, and so forth. you are going to love it. The smell is not for everyone, of course. 上環及西營盤海味街，是香港獨一無二的風景線，可能也是世界上最大的海味乾貨聚集地。 如果你喜歡魚乾、扇貝的味道，一定會愛上這裡。當然，這獨特的鹹鮮味並不是每個客人都 會欣賞的哦，但逛一逛卻感受到濃厚本地市場氣氛。

2

Tai O village. Tai O still manages to retain its charm and way of life despite being a popular destination. Between stilted houses built over the water, looking for Chinese pink dolphins and enjoying the sunset at the Fu Shan Viewing Point, there is a lot to do. 大澳村，大澳非常受歡迎，這裡仍設法保留了原有魅力和生活方式。欣賞在水上搭建的 棚屋，在富山觀景台尋找中華粉紅白海豚，欣賞落日余暉，很多回憶等着你來創造。

Extra Tip 額外提示 : Finally, before you go out, approach the concierge desk for the latest updates on Covid-19 restrictions. 最後在出行前，記得到禮賓台了解最新的 Covid-19 限制措施。
