Salisterra review: The Upper House’s top-floor restaurant offers awesome Hong Kong skyline views and plenty of vegetarian dishes
- Celebrity chef Jun Tanaka’s casual dining concept is packed with fresh Mediterranean flavours, inspired by the coastal cuisines of France and Italy
- Perched on the 49th floor of The Upper House hotel in Pacific Place, Salisterra boasts epic city views, plus chic interiors designed by André Fu
FARE Designed by celebrity chef Jun Tanaka, Salisterra’s menu is populated by flavours of the Mediterranean, inspired by the coastal cuisines of France and Italy.
AMBIENCE Perched on the 49th floor of The Upper House, the interiors are designed by none other than André Fu. Earth tones combine with elegant bronze embellishments, threading the colours of coastal towns into the subconscious.
COST All menu items are sharing plates, with vegetables starting at HK$95 and the most expensive main is the veal chop at HK$520.
WHO TO BRING Friends, business associates or even your date – basically anyone.
TURN-ONS While vegetables are usually considered sides or added on to assuage the guilt of a rich meal, vegetable dishes here can take centre stage. The pickled carrots with coconut yogurt and cashews have amazing texture while the sprinkle of dukkha adds savoury Middle Eastern notes.
