CHESA

1/F, The Peninsula Hong Kong, Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong TEL: +852 2696 6769

www.peninsula.com/chesa Decorated in the style of a cosy Alpine chalet, the charming restaurant feels as if it has been transported straight from the Swiss mountains. And a meal there delivers a traditional Alpine experience beginning with the specialities of raclette or cheese fondue—the melted cheese in the fondue moitié moitié is a smooth, full-flavoured blend perfect shared between two, to the well-executed, comforting meat and fish favourites, some, such as the veal Zurichoise and the Spätzle, more Swiss in style, through to dessert where signature chocolate offerings are rich and indulgent, whether in the form of the delightful chocolate Swiss chalet or the decadent chocolate mousse. It’s all presented by slightly brusque yet knowledgeable staff. Accompany the meal with a glass or two from the comprehensive wine list which includes an excellent selection of Swiss wines, a more unusual option that perfectly rounds out an authentic overall experience. There’s a reason that Hong

Kong diners have been coming to this quaint spot for more than 50 years.

There’s more to Chesa than fondue
