Felix Hong Kong

Felix sits on the 28th floor of The Peninsula on Salisbury Road. It is a ten-minute walk from the Avenue of Stars, the Hong Kong Museum of Art, and Harbour City.

The room runs smart and elegant, but the focus here is the Italian fusion menu. Most places along this stretch of the harbour rely on the kitsch factor of the skyline, yet the cooking at Felix carries its own weight rather than leaning entirely on the floor-to-ceiling glass. It is a more demanding environment than the bistros tucked into the surrounding shopping complexes, where the atmosphere is often secondary to the pace of the crowd. By moving the experience to the top of the tower, the restaurant avoids the frantic turnover common to the waterfront, making it the right choice if you prefer your skyline with a side of intention.
