Your Hong Kong weekend drinks guide for April 23-25
Parisian bistro Jean-Pierre launches new cocktails, Qura at the Regent is doubly taken over, and Osaka’s Craftroom heads to The Aubrey
This weekend, guest shifts abound as Taipei’s unDer Lab and Bangkok’s Messengerservice both take over Qura at the Regent for two nights, while Craftroom from Osaka appears at The Aubrey. For a cheeky pre-dinner cocktail, Le Bar at Black Sheep’s Jean-Pierre has expanded its offerings.

UnDer Lab + Messengerservice x Qura
Qura at the Regent is hosting a dual takeover on Thursday and Friday, as unDer Lab from Taipei and Messengerservice from Bangkok run successive shifts on both nights.
Messengerservice – Asia’s 90th best bar last year, and winner of best bar design from the same body – is represented by R&D manager Tug and senior bartender Por (what better name for someone in the industry?). Their cutting-edge creations include the Sushi Roll, made from sake, cucumber, wasabi distillate, ginger, truffle oil and tsuyu sauce.
Where: The Lobby, Regent Hong Kong, 18 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui
