The house move at Bar De Luxe is "bartender's choice": tell them sweet, bitter, or somewhere in between, and they build you something bespoke on the spot. This sleek cocktail bar on Pottinger Street runs on Ginza discipline, with staff who still train in Tokyo under the lineage of legendary bartender Hidetsugu Ueno. The menu skips heavy conceptual theatre in favor of clean, precisely made drinks, with occasional nods to Hong Kong film history for locals who'd rather not explain themselves.

Protégé
“The Protégé, for example, with its champagne, cucumber and lavender spirit, green apple syrup, kaffir lime-infused absinthe and a garnish of MSG, packed a punch and resembled the drugs that drove the eponymous movie’s gritty plot.”
