THE LOUNGE (FOUR SEASONS)

The Lounge at the Four Seasons Hong Kong makes light work of its intimidatingly sizeable menu, which includes everything from salads and sandwiches to homemade pastas, grilled meats and Asian specialities (with special breakfast and afternoon tea menus, too). The work of executive chef Andrea Accordi and pastry chef Ringo Chan has really enlivened this all-day dining venue, with exciting flavours, beautiful plating and high-quality ingredients that elevate this well beyond standard hotel lobby fare; Accordi’s dexterity shines through on the pasta dishes especially. The Lounge itself is light and spacious, with large windows, comfortable sofas and live musicians making this contemporary space even more welcoming. Service is outstanding, boasting a detailed knowledge of both food and wine that means recommendations and explanations are offered with ease.
