Allan Zeman and Kuninori Matsuda, Consul General of Japan in Hong Kong, welcomed VIP guests and the media to FUMI’s launch party last January 18, 2018. The Japanese restaurant officially opened its doors on the 15th of January, inviting diners to enjoy seasonal menus, many created by celebrity guest chefs from Japan.
The Japanese character for ‘culture’ was incorporated in FUMI’s name, a nod to the concept’s vision of educating and promoting traditions from the land of the rising sun. The restaurant is planning to host Japanese dance performances, calligraphy demonstrations, sake tasting classes and talks on culinary heritage in the coming year. Watch this space for a restaurant review coming soon!
