10 most Insta-worthy dining spots in Hong Kong
Jun 11, 2018
When it comes to picking where you want to dine, you always take the food, location, ambience and service into consideration. For better or for worse, there’s now one thing which sways our decision above all other criteria: its Insta-worthiness. I mean, if you didn’t Instagram it — did it even really happen? Thankfully, Hong Kong has been stepping up its game with some new dining spots that are aesthetically-focused. That’s not to say, classics such as Caprice and Sevva haven’t made it on the list.
Check out our favourite spots for when our Instagram is looking a little dull (which is hardly ever, of course):
