With so many of us planning, or about to take, a trip out of Hong Kong before the summer sun really turns up the heat, June is a great time to catch up with friends and family before everybody scatters.
Looking for somewhere special for a decadent meal, a happy hour catch-up or a coffee and snack? These newly opened bars and restaurants may take your fancy.
1. Yorucho and Madara

Expect dishes such as crispy nori tacos topped with red prawn head oil and prawn salt, and pickled plum-marinated tomatoes with yuzu ricotta.
