Mark your calendar for a carnival of dining at Carna in June as the World’s Greatest Butcher’s inspirations meet a trio of tempting possibilities
Carna at MONDRIAN HONG KONG is the essential nose-to-tail dining experience, where the talents of Tuscany’s Dario Cecchini, hailed as the world’s greatest butcher, meet the passion and flair of Tuscan culinary artistry.
This cosy renaissance sanctuary with jaw-dropping views of Hong Kong’s harbour and skyline from the 39th floor of Mondrian Hong Kong, in the heart of the Kowloon’s dining and nightlife buzz, needs no introduction to adventurous diners and Hong Kong’s cognoscenti.
Now come three very good reasons to embrace Cecchini’s world of poetry, play and passion, juicy cuts and joi de vivre this June, with three new menus to savour.
