Thunder, heavy rain, a soggy outfield… almost forgotten as the champagne flowed, the beats chilled and Tri’s Indonesian street food sustained at the Media X Mumm Harbour Party @ Art Central – 21 March, 2016

Wildfire in Causeway Bay is launching a monthly four course wine pairing dinner starting on the 23 March. The $428 four course menu features a Cold Cut Platter – mortadella, salami, parma ham and smoked duck breast – paired with Domain Road Pinot Noir 2009 from Central Otago, New Zealand; Mini Calzone of smoked ham, spinach, mushrooms, mozzarella paired with Clyder Park Pinot Noir 2007 from Victoria, Australia; USDA Black Angus Ribs with black truffle mashed potato and gravy paired with Torlesse Waipara Pinot Noir 2012 from Waipara, New Zealand.

Megabites: Goût de / Good France – 21 March

good france logo

After a successful first event in 2015 the Alain Ducasse inspired Goût de France / Good France returns to tease and tantalise tastebuds globally. Organized by the French government with the intent to showcase the French way of life, regional produce, and France as a tourist destination. From Bangladesh to Fiji, Syria to Lettonia over 1,000 chefs on 5 continents are creating a menu to celebrate French gastronomy and joie de vivre on the 21 March.

Locally 22 restaurants are participating at a wide range of price points, with some menu offerings only available on the 21 March, while others are on offer all week. Some of the menu’s are online at www.goodfrance.com – although sadly the French government no longer seem to recognise Hong Kong as we’re lumped in with China.
