Priced at HK$788 per person, the menu opens with hiyayakko, a delicate almond tofu dish, followed by a twist on xiaolongbao with osso buco dumplings. Other highlights include shime saba with seki mackerel and Algarrobo pork belly, while dessert brings a hit of popcorn ice cream with miso caramel.

First held in 2019, Eaton HK’s Movement Festival takes place this month from November 23 to 24, promising 24 straight hours of performing arts. Themed “Speaking from Afar” in a nod to a fable by Jean de La Fontaine, the festival once again explores the art of contemporary movement. Kicking off with short performances by the Hong Kong Ballet, the programme features more than 30 pieces by artists from Hong Kong and abroad, including Jas Lin and Lara Dâmaso, before culminating in a piece by actor Constantin Leu.
