A new smart-casual diner by Max Levy, the only non-Chinese chef at Sushi Yasuda, Okra doesn’t take reservations and has a standing-table section. But before YOU get any reservations, try the cuisine. The diverse tapas-like menu is divided into smaller A-sides and larger B-sides, and the culinary boldness of each make any waiting worthwhile.

Walk in and you’re struck by the private-club vibe, the wall of lovingly rendered horse oil paintings and the impressive selection of steak knives - but that’s only until the food arrives. Chef Felipe Lopez is here to prove that the asado grill is alive and well in Hong Kong.

A high-ceilinged open kitchen aptly designed in the style of a Wanchai market, this bustling buffet has everything from high-quality Sichuan to Indian, Malaysian and Italian - each major worldly cuisine sumptuously spoken for, as are some lesser-known ones.

The Peninsula’s place among the best hotels in the world is not at all overstated. This Twenties-era harbour monolith manages to evoke a romanticised colonialist past that’s in perfect balance with modern luxuries and conveniences, a perfect base from which to explore Hong Kong.

The Conrad is situated in the upper floors of a central tower so the views are, of course, marvellous. But there’s so much more to this one. In addition to the generous rooms, the soft beds and the deep-soak baths, this hotel offers four unique restaurants, two bars and a sensational rooftop pool.

LKF for short, this surprisingly small precinct is one of the nightlife capitals of Hong Kong. Packed into a small square of streets are over a hundred bars, restaurants and clubs: it’s Hong Kong’s answer to Tokyo’s Golden Gai.
