Not without its gastronomy, The Henderson houses Akira Back, the chef’ s eponymous Japanese-Korean fusion restaurant blanketed in swirling pastels on the fifth floor of the building. Dishes center on the sentimental, where the iconic Akira Back tuna pizza with umami aioli, micro shiso and white truffle oil complements 48-hour Wagyu short ribs. Or, go for an exclusive 10-course omakase menu only available in Hong Kong.
Ascend to Summit 38, the top-floor dining collective at The Henderson, to enjoy the ultimate craft cocktail at Peridot, the building’ s literal crown jewel bathed in yellow-green hues and dotted in mirrored lights. A focus on“ terroir” creations means that the recipes dive into different world regions, such as Oaxaca, which rotate every quarter. Live entertainment even wanders among the tables, as musicians set the aura on the piano and play saxophones tableside.
In a lavish locale like Hong Kong, shopping is another art form, where malls and commerce streets dot the map. Near The Regent, the K11 MUSEA Art Mall combines the leisure elements of strolling through a museum with the retail hunt. As the proclaimed“ Silicon Valley of Culture,” this harborside upstart features designs from more than 100 artists, all encased in plant walls and sweeping metal curves. Shop world-famous designers like Audemars Piguet, Balenciaga, Delvaux, Loewe and others while gazing up at stunning structures like a 10-meter Gold Ball set into the ceiling.
