MAISON EIGHT: HONG KONG’S STYLISH HANG OUT
BALLROOM AND SALVATORE AT MAISON EIGHT SHAKE UP HONG KONG’S COCKTAIL AND MUSIC SCENE
(Hong Kong, 22 June 2016) World class cocktails and music at Maison Eight’s Ballroom and Salvatore have made the sky high destination the talk of the town. With sweeping vistas of the city’s skyline Maison Eight is the ultimate venue for French inspired cuisine, crafted menus, creative cocktails and tasteful beats for all times of the day.
“From day to night, the space transforms from a casual lunch, afternoon tea and weekend brunch spot to a bar serving cocktails that pack a punch. We pair our sophisticated offerings with live music performances throughout the week. Our guests could spend a whole day with us and have a range of different experiences,” says Assistant General Manager Guillaume Places.
Salvatore at Maison Eight, is the city’s favourite for after work drinks: the first cocktail bar in Asia by The Maestro, world-renowned bartender Salvatore Calabrese. Together with his Hong Kong team, he has created an innovative menu which includes a modern approach to classic cocktails, a selection of the signature cocktails and some exciting new offerings of Asian influence exclusive to Maison Eight. The snazzy cocktails beam over the 10.8m bar reflecting the depths of Victoria Harbour and moody skies of the city. The ever-personable bar team help tailor and understand individual tastes. The menu highlights an array of spirits from gin to whisky, martini to Negroni, infused with a cheeky, personal style.
Considered “the godfather of the cocktail world”, Salvatore is known for creating the world’s oldest drink made of fine, rare liquors and the world’s most expensive cocktail at The Playboy Club in Mayfair. “As my first venture in Asia, I wanted to bring a selection of my signature cocktails, some unusual twists on the classics and new exciting creations unique to Maison Eight. I am inspired by the amazing and vibrant flavours found in Asia. At Salvatore at Maison Eight, guests can sit back, relax and choose a taste sensation that’ll take them on a pleasant journey,” says Salvatore.
