Like its school-themed sister restaurant, Common Room, Assembly takes its cues from student life, specifically the British pubs favourited by students gathering after a day’s lectures, hungry for some good booze and comfort food. Except, with its super chic contemporary-Chinois look, (think: black arches reminiscent of a Parisian train station), this is a student pub. Given a dramatically upmarket facelift, Assembly is more likely frequented by an in-the-know exec crowd thirsting after old school days than actual broke undergrads. It’s sexy, sophisticated, and touted as one of Hong Kong’s favourite tapas and cocktail destinations.

With a menu like this, it’s not hard to see why. It’s a comprehensive who’s-who of New American favourites, shot through with the occasional Asian touch. Think hearty poutine, fries topped, not with the customary duck fat and cheese curds, but luxurious cheddar-coated pulled pork, and other swish gastropub staples like buttery Linguine Vongole, Lobster Risotto, and Foie Gras Sliders. The thin-crust pizzas here are a house favourite and come fairly lightly-topped so you can best enjoy the crispy flatbread’s texture: there’s a simple Margherita, Cajun Chicken, and even pizza-dough Toasties filled with ham, cheese, onions, or truffle mushrooms. Drinks come in the form of craft cocktails, a mix of classics and new inventions, all made with more than a dash of attitude and lots of attention to detail. Hong Kong watering holes don’t get quite as special as this, and you’ll want to be seen here as much as you’ll want to chow down on its great bites and strong drinks. (Jun 2017)
