New Indian restaurant in Central! The Great Indian Kebab Factory is the second branch of a fine-diner that offers 11-course tasting menus as well as a whole bunch of a la carte options. Kebabs (natch), tikka dishes, tandoori specialties, samosas and lassis are all on offer—paired with a glass of wine, if you so please.
Progress U offers an intensive two-day seminar with the French Chamber of Commerce about employee retainment aimed at business owners, middle and senior managers as well as human resource managers. The workshop examines the seven hidden reasons why people resign and the best ways to address this. The workshop also looks at long-term goals, examining how managers can develop leadership practices that influence key retention of talent.
After getting one pretty miserly sized (albeit tasty) taco for $40 from the Brickhouse pop-up at Clockenflap two weeks ago, I walked a couple stalls down and discovered another set-up by the new shop selling $30 Beijing-style streetside pancakes at triple the size. To be clear, $30 was the price on Saturday, and I heard that by Sunday the pancakes had gone up to $50 a piece—maybe the owners had dropped by the Brickhouse tent and realized they could get away with a ginormous price hike on their own products.
A notoriously hard-to-find speakeasy, situated behind an unmarked black door between Graham Street and Queen's Road Central. Despite its somewhat secret location, the very small bar has been making a name for itself through word of mouth thanks to its excellent Earl Grey Martini and grilled cheese sandwiches.
The beautiful people love to frequent this joint. Think classy cocktails, starched white linens and collectable art. Add bankers, entrepreneurs, young media luvvies and you have Kee defined. Housed on the sixth floor of a nondescript building, the elevator doors open to moody, understated luxe. It’s small, exclusive and very, very desirable. But beware the secret paparazzo.
A good concierge should be able to get you into this exclusive members-only club, where you can sip a classic cocktail and check out the Picassos, antiques and colonial-style service. It’s more about eating than drinking, but a welcome respite from the neon buzz outside.

The buzz: Priding itself as Hong Kong’s first and only Polynesian-themed bar, Honi Honi (pronounced, perhaps appropriately, “honey honey”) comes complete with all the tropical flowery flair you would expect. Escape the city’s mayhem and relax amidst coconut-shell cups and swaying palm trees—right in the heart of Central.

More Than Noodles Bar definitely has more than just noodles—and, ironically, barely any noodles at all. The menu is a mishmash of grilled seafood, Chinese snacks like curry fishballs and turnip cake, and a total of seven kinds of noodles—all in soup and all featuring seafood save for two beef-based varieties.
