Set along Victoria Harbour, with gorgeous views prominent, book a table at The Bayside for the restaurant’s five-course Valentine’s Day menu (HKD1,188 for 2). The theme of red is a focus of the menu, from the starters of steak tartare and 52-month Ibérico ham, to the lobster vol-au-vent and signature crab cake, to the mains.

Recognised as one of the world’s most beautiful dining rooms by the Prix Versailles, Baccarat-studded Cristal Room by Anne-Sophie Pic is especially enchanting on Valentine’s Day, with the world’s most lauded Michelin-starred female chef making a return to the kitchen this February. An exceptional eight-course Valentine’s Day menu (HKD4,888 pp) is one option for living large on Feb. 14, but to truly up the ante – perhaps you have a proposal in mind – book in for the Exclusivité Valentine’s Day Experience (HKD18,880 for 2), set within one of the restaurant’s intimate private dining rooms.
In addition to enjoying the French fine-dining V-Day menu with wine pairings, diners will be treated to a special delivery of fresh roses, a signed and dated copy of chef Anne-Sophie’s latest book, Suffusion, and a specially engraved pair of Baccarat Harcourt 1841 crystal “Love” glasses.

Three-course Italian menu at Casa Cucina & Bar
Casa Cucina’s general vibe is romance incarnate, made even more so with the modern Italian eatery’s three-course San Valentino sharing menu (HKD598 pp), available for one night only on Feb. 14. The menu kicks off with a selection of sharing starters, including chicken-liver focaccia and crispy polenta with tomato aioli, Parmesan, and pistachio, before it’s time to pick an individual main course (but there’s no stopping you from sharing this too!). We recommend selecting chef-owner Anthony Cheung’s handcrafted seafood tagliatelle or the orzo-based lobster risoni. For dessert, it’s a toss-up between the tofu panna cotta and sea-salt tiramisu, before couples are sent on their way with a complimentary keepsake photo. Free-flow still or sparkling water is included (a nice touch), but you can also choose to add on an optional one-hour bottomless beverage package (from HKD98 pp).
