Korean-washed, broadly Asian restaurant GOLDEN GIP has ended its run of 22 months in Central, set to be replaced by a new concept from the same restaurant group.
CENSU CREW, the group behind CENSU in Hong Kong and Tokyo and SIÜ SIÜ here in the city, is introducing RON in its place on Wellington Street as head chef Tim Wong arrives to lead the kitchen. Chef Tim formerly worked as sous-chef at CENSU Hong Kong.
Asian recipes with Korean ingredients and savoir-faire signify a new direction for the Central venue, with RON focusing on Japanese-Cantonese fusion cuisine: dai pai dong flavours with izakaya cooking techniques.
RON launches with an opening preview for lunch and dinner on Nov. 12.
GOLDEN GIP debuted a summer 2024 pop-up in Sai Wan Ho before landing permanently in Central in January 2025.
