Feasting in the Magistracy Dining Room is an awe-inspiring experience. Images of the Joyce Wang-designed interior went viral when the restaurant opened and it was easy to see why. Recalling a heritage London establishment, the high vaulted ceilings, carved timber panels, oxblood leather seating and golden accent lamps all ignited memories of the building’s historical significance. Housed in the former Central Magistracy, once Hong Kong’s Supreme Court, this monument has taken on a new lease of life as a worldclass hospitality venue. Overseen by Michelin-starred executive chef Alyn Williams – it provides the perfect backdrop for lunches and dinners; and one simply cannot refuse the temptation of enjoying the city’s finest gin and tonics alfresco in the lush Botanical Garden.
