Each of the dishes on Popsy Room's eight-course tasting menu is paired with a specific piece of art on the gallery's walls. The exhibition -- thus the menu, too -- changes every third month. The latest trend to hit the city's booming restaurant and art scene has gallerists and restaurateurs teaming up to combine elements of gastronomy with visual arts.
The result? Diners gain a stronger connection to both the food and the art, say fans. "Gastronomy is art for the senses," says Duddell's executive chef Siu Hin Chi. Eating at Duddell's is like attending a dinner party at the home of a renowned art curator who also happens to be a two-star Michelin chef.
"Our diners appreciate the arts -- not only the artworks exhibited at the restaurant, but also the art of dining," says Duddell's executive chef, Siu Hin Chi. Siu says his cooking takes inspiration from the color and composition of artworks.
"For example, the Trio of Seafood is one of our most creatively plated dishes -- one of the dumplings is in the shape of a goldfish, one has a green-colored rim and the third is wrapped in the shape of Chinese gold ingot," he says.
It's a stylishly relaxed environment, provoking conversation on all things culture.
"We believe the artworks enhance the dining experience -- they provide a treat for your eyes, while the food provides a treat for your taste buds," Siu says.
