TWINS KITCHEN

Josh and Caleb Ng are the duo behind Twins Kitchen, the brand and platform behind some of Hong Kong’s most exciting F&B initiatives. The twin brothers have piled a lot on their plates over the years—including opening a dumpling bar, Gao, in Copenhagen

and launching Interval, a coffee bar and event space on Wellington Street, all while exploring even more possibilities in the culinary space. In 2018, the duo saw the need

to support budding local entrepreneurs and chefs, and launched Taste Kitchen at PMQ, the city’s first incubation programme for restaurants. By offering the space (with a fully functioning kitchen and bar) at a nice price, as well as support staff at the front and back of house, the twins have created a space where local innovation can thrive. At least two chefs—Stephanie Wong of Roots Eatery and Zahir Mohamed of Baked— have opened independent eateries soon after their stints at Taste Kitchen, and we can’t wait to see how else the brothers will use their resources and influence to help

grow our local dining scene.
