Time to U Hang out<br />
Hung Up On U<br />
U Hang (Shop 6-6A, 48-78 High St., Sai Ying Pun, 2549-6788) is the follow-up project to<br />
popular mod Korean resto Sanche in Central, and this time ‘round it’s all about Korean<br />
snacks and comfort food in a casual bar setting. As far as I know, there aren’t going to<br />
be the usual suspects like dobbokki (spicy rice cakes), bibimbap or kimbap rolls—instead,<br />
we’re talking short ribs, sliders and KFC (not the Kentucky variety). Wash it all down with<br />
a soju cocktail or a steaming cup of Korean tea.<br />
Hikari Bartaurant—all Japanese to me<br />
It’s a Bird... It’s a Plane... It’s a Bartaurant!<br />
Apparently, the folks at Hikari Bartaurant (Shop B, G/F, Jet Foil Mansion, 415-421<br />
Jaffe Rd., Causeway Bay, 2808-0292) decided that neither “bar” nor “restaurant”<br />
were suitable enough terms to describe their brand-spankin’ new venue. If it<br />
was going to be a forced mashup, I personally would’ve gone for “restobar,”<br />
but hey, to each their own. Hikari will be serving salads, yakitori and other<br />
Japanese dishes bar-snack-style, paired alongside cocktails, wines<br />
and sake. Upon entry, you will be greeted by (ninja) graffiti<br />
on the walls—a 2014 hipster bar pre-req.<br />
