SPOON: Sexy French fare

SPOON is sexy from the first step. Eel-skin upholstered chairs, sofas with mink cushions and 550 hand-blown Venetian glass spoons on the ceiling, all complete with a stunning harborview backdrop. A little whimsy and a lot of cool.

Diners warm up their well-bred palate with the tasting menus that feature artisanal pasta with ham, black truffle and Emmenthal. Or just get your hands dirty and dive right into the full 6- or 8-course menus (HK$888-HK$1,088 per person, respectively). The 3-glass wine pairing at SPOON goes for HK$688.

Behind the contemporary French and international cuisine at SPOON is culinary mastermind Alain Ducasse, who was the first chef to own restaurants carrying three Michelin Stars in three cities.
