Boozing and Brunching

This Saturday, MaxFoodLab brings you a meat-laden brunch at Blue Butcher – the likes of which you’ve never experienced before! The concept of brunching has really taken off here in HK, but there always seems to be a lack of good music to set the mood. ‘Meats & Beats’ aims to provide diners with an awesome fusion of the best music, food and beverages. Spend the whole day dancing and dining with the free-flow brunch, or head over in the afternoon for just drinks. Spaces are limited, so don’t miss out on the chance to spoil yourself silly with a glass of bubbly (or three)!

When: Saturday, 23 January, 11am – 4pm
Where: Blue Butcher, 108 Hollywood Road, Central, Hong Kong
How Much: Brunch and Free-Flow: $650 + 10% service charge, Free-Flow only: $280 + 10% service charge. For reservations, please contact [email protected] or call 2613 9286.

Refreshments will also be available, so make an evening out of it.

Sway to spirit-lifting melodies brought to you by DJ VISA and special guest, Gaby Endo, or sit back, relax and sip on some delicious cocktails. Sounds like the perfect way to prepare for another chilly January week!
