Green eating returns with TREEHOUSE

Plant-based dieters lamented the sudden exit of Christian G. Mongendre’s HOME Eat to Live when it abruptly departed the Hong Kong culinary scene, but after two years, the innovative restaurateur is finally back with his new concept, TREEHOUSE. As with his prior projects, Mongendre emphasises responsible dining and quality-driven food, and his new opening will feature thoughtful interior touches like reclaimed wood, lead-free eco-cement, recycled plastic furniture, recycling bins, and composting facilities. Produce, of course, will be locally-sourced and organic, and gluten-free and raw options aplenty. Expect build-your-own bowls, healthy burgers and sandwiches, salads, smoothies, fair-trade coffees, and kombuchas. TREEHOUSE, Shop 1, G/F, H Code, 45 Pottinger Street, Central | (+852) 3971 2277

Modern Malaysian street food and cocktails at JALAN

The brother-and-sister team behind Uma Nota and BEDU present their playful and vibrant take on Malaysian street food this summer. JALAN, Central’s newest neighbourhood kitchen and bar, focuses on modern Malaysian flavours in the form of sharing dishes like Beef Rendang Samosa ($90), Laksa Fried Chicken ($135), and irresistible Jalan “Satay” Chicken ($130). Sweet-tooths will crave seconds of the Pandan Custard Doughnuts ($80), coupled with a blissful sip of the vivid Masala Mule ($85), a spiced tipple of gin, turmeric honey, ginger beer, lemon, and homemade pepper bitters. Summer may be coming to an end, but we’re finding that rare touch of nature in our concrete jungle and soaking up the Borneo-inspired interiors, replete with leafy greens and sharp colours.

BBQ lunch set at Mr Brown

Chef Asher Goldstein’s grill and smokehouse effort Mr Brown as introduced a new three-course BBQ Lunch Set ($160) that’s sure to land a hit with Hong Kong’s meat-eaters. Ditch the sad salads and dig into wood-fired cooked dishes like Smoked Pork Croquettes with Piri Piri sauce and Eggplant Carpaccio for starters, before moving on to a Pork Katsu Sanger (an informal Australian English term for sandwich, it would appear), Prime Striploin with chimichurri drizzled on top, Smoked Chicken Thigh with toasted tahini and tomato, or the ultimate comfort food of all, the Smoked Beef Lasagna, layered with oozing Monterey Jack cheese. Wrap up with a Smoked Chocolate Mousse with roasted plum to end things on a bittersweet note before making your way back to the office. Mr Brown, G/F, 9 Ship Street, Wan Chai | (+852) 3101 1081
