Trattoria Felino will host a one-night-only charity dinner on 22 December, uniting a standout lineup of Hong Kong chefs and venues for a collaborative multi-course evening in support of families impacted by the Tai Po fire – a tragedy that has affected many in the community. The dinner (food only) is priced at HK$1,880 + 10% per guest, and all revenue from food and beverage on the night will be donated to the Hong Kong Red Cross, supporting its relief work through the Tai Po Fire Emergency Appeal.
“Our hearts are with everyone affected by the Tai Po fire,” says Chef Marcello Scognamiglio, co-founder of Trattoria Felino. “This dinner is our way of bringing the hospitality community together to raise meaningful support for families who need it right now.”
Joining host Chef Marcello Scognamiglio of Trattoria Felino, the evening’s lineup includes Chef Olivier Elzer of two MICHELIN-starred L’Envol and Clarence, Chef Angelo Aglianó of one MICHELIN-starred Tosca di Angelo, The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong’s elegant Italian dining room known for refined contemporary plates; Chef Aven Lau of one MICHELIN-starred ÉPURE, the contemporary French restaurant celebrated for seasonal produce and precise technique; Chef Fabiana Miccoli of L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon Hong Kong, the city’s flagship of Robuchon’s iconic counter-style ‘Atelier’ concept; Chef Cary Docherty of Lobster Bar & Grill, a long-running favourite for premium seafood and grill-led brasserie dishes at Island Shangri-La; and Chef Marco Xodo (formerly of Testina), known for modern Italian cooking with a produce-driven, technique-led approach. Cocktails and dessert (THE Flan) will be led by John Nugent and Angel Chiu of Sugar King (also of The Diplomat and Cardinal Point), some of Hong Kong’s best-loved cocktail destinations, known for classic-driven drinks and hospitality-forward service.
