The Best Things To Do in Lan Kwai Fong, Hong Kong
Lan Kwai Fong is the heart of Hong Kong – it’s in the centre of Central. While it can be a little rough around the edges, there are a lot of hidden gems beyond eating and drinking. Here are some of the best things to do in this infamous neighbourhood.
1. Have a personalised cocktail at J.Boroski
Cocktail Bar, Bar, Cocktails
J.Boroski is known for its out-of-this-world bespoke cocktails and impeccable service. But unlike other bars, there’s no menu – it’s all about personalisation. The bartender will craft a unique cocktail based on the customer’s preferences. Unfortunately, you can’t just stroll into this place; you need to be invited. To be invited, shoot them a note on social media or write them an email at hk@jboroski.com.
2. Feed your sweet tooth at Tai Cheong Bakery
Bakery, Chinese, Portuguese
First established in 1954, Tai Cheong has built up a reputation as one of the best places for a sweet and buttery egg tart in Hong Kong. This bakery was the first in the city to use shortcrust pastry in their egg tarts. Culture Trip recommends you get a couple of them because you’ll want to eat more than one. With branches all over Hong Kong, you’re never far from your next custard-egg-tart fix.
3. Watch a live performance at Fringe Club
Theater, Art Gallery, Building, Theatre
5. Get a taste of traditional dim sum at Luk Yu TeaHouse
Restaurant, Dim Sum
6. Have a drink on CÉ LA VI HK’s rooftop bar
Bar, Cocktail Bar, Restaurant, Asian
For a drink with a view, head on over to California Tower and up to CÉ LA VI’s Sky Deck. Occupying the top three floors of the building, CÉ LA VI offers a variety of food and drinks. If you go up to their rooftop terrace, Sky Deck, not only will you be greeted with good music, vibes and drinks, but you’ll also get a sweeping panoramic view of Hong Kong that will leave you speechless.
7. Check out some contemporary art at Opera Gallery
