Michelin Star French dining at Épure
Returning to our French Roots, a unique Chaîne dinner was specially created at Épure Fine French Dining Restaurant by Michelin Star Chef Nicholas Boutin. Naturally the courses were matched with complementing wines.
Located in a tranquil terrace nestled within Hong Kong’s bustling city centre, Épure is well known for uncomplicated yet elegant contemporary French cuisine. The beautifully-designed venue, by internationally renowned design institute Yabu Pushelburg, exudes French heritage and natural habitats.
Chef Boutin offers exciting contemporary dishes that showcased the finest seasonal ingredients from France. Our members and their guests had the pleasure of embarking on a culinary journey employing Chef Boutin’s philosophy of purity of ingredients, flavours and presentation.
