It is the question on every executive’s mind – where to go for lunch? Whether you are taking clients or enjoying an informal gathering with colleagues, a midday repast with great food and comfortable seating is always welcome.
Amber
Amber is your go-to destination if you are looking to eat light. Under the direction of visionary chef Richard Ekkebus, the cuisine at Amber promises zero use of dairy products, and refined sugar is also minimised to deliver flavours in their purest form. Witness how Ekkebus turns fruit tomato, purple artichoke and the likes of other premium vegetable ingredients into seasonal dishes in his vegetarian menu. The quail dish cooked with fermented mushroom on the non-vegetarian lunch menu is also a must-try. The three-course vegetarian menus starts at HK$778.

Ami
One of the newest additions to Central’s restaurant scene, Ami, which means “friend” in French, offers a fine Parisian “bistronomie” experience where carefully selected ingredients are used to conjure up its lunch menu. Items change from time to time, but the Fisherman Soup and the Beef Cheek are well-loved by many executives. A three-course lunch starts at HK$598/person.
