As a French expat in Hong Kong, Bouillon is my go-to for a taste of home. When I’m feeling homesick and craving comfort food, Chef Johan Ducroquet’s French classics always hit the spot. From the boeuf bourguignon and duck confit to the steak tartare, every dish on the menu transports me straight back to the heart of France. The warm, inviting atmosphere and the familiar dishes create a sense of comfort and nostalgia that’s hard to find anywhere else in the city.

Louise

At Louise, good food and beautiful design go hand in hand. The ground floor’s La Terrace by Louise is a haven for leisurely weekend brunches, perfect for celebrating Bastille Day under the sun amidst lush greenery. Louise’s brunch menu is a culinary delight, featuring dishes like oysters, foie gras, and the iconic “Île flottante” that captures the seaside charm of the French Riviera.

The chemistry of two friends, translated into food. Chefs Romain Dupeyre and Adrien Castillo, both hailing from the south of France, share a deep respect for culinary tradition. At Racines, they blend this heritage with innovation, infusing classic French dishes with their unique backgrounds to create a modern experience for their guests. As you approach the restaurant, you can’t miss the glass doors offering a glimpse of the interior design. A majestic pendant tree, its branches reaching towards the ceiling, all of which set the stage for a night of culinary discovery.
