Tatler Dining Guide - Hong Kong
14 Somm
MODERN EUROPEAN
Before Somm, the space on the seventh floor of The Landmark Mandarin Oriental was primarily occupied by a rather non-descript bar, where diners going to Amber would enjoy a pre- or postprandial cocktail. Following the massive renovation of the entire level, we’re glad that Somm has been willed into existence. Its unpretentious mission is to inspire diners to try wines outside of their comfort zone and to serve a solid menu of comforting dishes executed with a high level of finesse. Because Somm is open all day, from breakfast through to late-night supper, it’s become a place where we feel comfortable popping in for a glass of wine and some charcuterie, or for a bigger meal starting with fresh oysters, followed by delicious Tasmanian salmon confit, ikura and vinegared rice cream, or Japanese pork belly with barbecue sauce and Hakata cabbage, paired with a bottle from the extensive list, recommended by the knowledgeable somms.
