Tapeo, Spanish flair on Hollywood Road

Cold or hot, spicy or not, tapas is the name of a wide variety of appetizers in Spanish cuisine and a more sociable way of eating has yet to be invented. Eaten throughout the day in Spain, but mostly between 5pm and dinner time, just add friends, music and a glass or three of vino, and you have the perfect party. In the relaxed environment of Hong Kong’s newest tapas bar, Tapeo, you have the perfect venue too. Choose from the extensive and appealing menu, then eat your tapas after watching each delectable dish prepared at the bar by the chef – perhaps complemented by a fine glass of sherry. Still hungry? Order more – that’s the beauty of tapas, especially at Tapeo. Tapas Bar Tapeo

Khana Khazana, Indian Spices meet Vegetarian dishes

In meat-lovers city Hong Kong, it’s refreshing (and a relief for many) to find a place where vegetables take centre stage – and shine. Khana Khazana is such a restaurant, a place where Northern and Southern Indian spices turn vegetables and other veggie ingredients into delicious, healthy and satisfying meals. Diners can take their pick from a vast selection of tandoori dishes, curries and roties on the exclusively vegetarian menu, and should pay special attention to the Indian wine promotions. Khana Khazana offers a stellar Long Sunday Lunch buffet with free-flowing wine, and is open on weekends from 11am to 11pm. Restaurant Khana Khazana
