His interiors also create a canvas for Mauro Colagreco’s hearty Italian dishes at Fiamma. The city takes food seriously, and new restaurants are joining the fray in every corner. In lovely, leafy Dempsey Hill, Claudine serves up delicate French cuisine in a converted chapel. Tetsuya Wakuda has opened his second restaurant in the Marina Bay Sands complex, WAKUDA, with elevated izakaya dishes on the menu. In the Botanical Gardens’ Orangery, Malcolm Lee’s tasting menu-only Pangium focuses on Straits cuisine through heritage dishes and ingredients drawn from the region’s natural biodiversity. And Raffles Singapore’s stellar WAKUDA line-up of restaurants – including those by Anne-Sophie Pic, Alain Ducasse and Jereme Leung – bring some deserved gastro-buzz to this renovated Grande Dame.

Hong Kong Centurion Living 2023 Performances, Experiences and Introductions: Le Mépris, Orna Guralnik, African Art Where to STAY & GO — Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong, home to seven Michelin stars, has undergone a full makeover, including the addition of new bar Argo where cocktails made with AI-produced gin and molecular-aged whisky focus on “the future of drinking”. Families should head over to the south side of Hong Kong Island where the Fullerton Hotel, located at Ocean Park, offers direct access to water slides and giant pandas. The West Kowloon Cultural District has finally become a serious player on the arts scene with the arrival of the Herzog & de Meuron-designed M+ museum of visual culture. It’s worth making time to try Mosu Hong Kong’s seasonal Korean cuisine on the museum’s rooftop. For a journey back in time, the Palace Museum showcases 900 pieces from its parent collection in Beijing, some never before seen by the public, including calligraphy, ceramics and Qing dynasty imperial portraits.
