Executive Bar

Top choice in Wan Chai & Northeast Hong Kong Island


There are just 20 seats at this discrete gem of a bar overlooking the racecourse, which means Japanese owner and bartender Ichiro (it's a one-man operation) can give you his undivided attention. Perfectionist spins on classic cocktails employ fresh fruits imported from Japan, hand-chipped ice and house-infused bitters that change with the seasons. Ichiro has a terrific whiskey selection too.
