Hong Kong’s Aqua to auction 1kg white truffle for charity
All proceeds from the restaurant’s charity dinner, which includes the auction of a 1kg white truffle, will go towards The Duchess of Kent Children’s Hospital
It’s truffle season, and white truffle lovers are in for a treat. To mark the highly anticipated white truffle season, Aqua has come up with five new and unique dishes. It has also unveiled a white truffle ice cream. The white truffles in each dish are sourced from Savini Tartufi in Tuscany, northern Italy, where the world’s premium truffles are located.
The restaurant is co-hosting a charity white truffle dinner with the Savini family, in aid of The Duchess of Kent Children’s Hospital, on November 23. Renowned truffle hunter and trader Cristiano Savini and his brother will be flying in from Italy to attend the event, bringing along an impressive 1kg white truffle available for auction in the evening. Tickets to the dinner are HK$988 per person.
