HK+ Pick

Calling Mr. Jones - Sir Tom Jones is bringing his pelvic thrusting action to town. If you’re not familiar with the band featured on the left, then this guy might be more your speed.

OPEN BAR

The Backyard

The buzz: Langham Place Hotel’s latest addition is 6,000 square feet of pure outdoor (grown-up) fun.

AFTERHOURS
with Johannes Pong

Nightlife is a “Dribbling Tool”

My witch friend Maloy texted me on the morn of the new Chinese year: “Get ready for some turbulence in the Year of the Tiger.” Luckily, one of the fierce goddesses that I talk to on a regular basis is Lady Durga. No, NOT Gaga. DURGA. Google her. She can smite you with her smile. Anyway, my point was that... she rides on a tiger. Or lion. Depends on the iconography.

FILM

Crossing Hennessy

It is enormously refreshing to see a Hong Kong film that has nothing to do with triad politics or wired kung fu acrobatics. Set over a few streets in Wan Chai, “Crossing Hennessy” is a straightforward dramedy that acknowledges the pathos of modern urban living while pointing out some of the simple truths in life.

It is a small, cozy film that feels like a personal tribute.
