It hasn’t been that long since our last visit to Fang Fang, the maverickly modern Asian restaurant nestled in the bustling Lan Kwai Fong District. But in keeping with Hong Kong’s mercurial nature, Executive Chef Wong Tai Po has already wrought a major change to the fine dining establishment’s expansive menu in the form of an all-new Saturday Asian Fiesta Brunch selection.
This latest culinary experience kicks off with welcome snacks in the form of salted edamame and prawn crackers, followed by an assortment of tapas-style small sharing plates. The highlights here include the crispy yet smooth Salt & Pepper Tofu and the Miso Grilled Eggplant, a seemingly-simple dish that packs a serious umami-flavoured punch.
Next, each diner can choose one of a series of main courses – all fan favourites from the regular a la carte menu. Seafood aficionados should definitely not miss out on the Honey Grilled Seabass, a miso-glazed seabass steak that literally melts in your mouth. Those looking for a little spice kick will love the Spicy Popcorn Chicken, a unique blend of actual caramel popcorn kernels and tender Sichuan pepper-spiced chicken morsels. Aromatic Duck, a modern interpretation of Peking duck, is another standout choice.
If you haven’t made the mistake of over-indulging with Fang Fang’s delicious savoury selection, round out your Asian Fiesta Brunch while simultaneously satiating your sweet tooth with some Ginger Creme Brulee or Sesame Ice Cream.
Priced from HK$358 per adult and HK$210 per child, the Asian Fiesta Brunch is available every Saturday from 12 pm until 3 pm. An add-on free-flow alcoholic beverage package is available at HK$280 per person, while a non-alcoholic package runs at HK$110 per person.
