In the ever-evolving landscape of Hong Kong’s cocktail culture, The Savory Project has emerged as a notable contender, seamlessly blending creativity with culinary precision. Founded by Ajit Gurung and Jay Khan, a visionary with a distinguished pedigree in the industry, The Savory Project promises an innovative drinking experience that challenges conventional mixology norms.
A Culinary Approach to Cocktails
The Savory Project is not merely a bar; it is a concept that redefines the cocktail experience through a culinary lens. Khan, who previously made waves with his bar Coa, which topped the Asia’s 50 Best Bars list, utilizes his extensive knowledge of flavors to craft cocktails that are both sophisticated and accessible. Each drink is meticulously designed, emphasizing ingredients that resonate with the palate while offering a fresh twist on classic flavors.
The bar’s philosophy centers on the idea that cocktails should engage all senses. The use of high-quality, locally-sourced ingredients is paramount, as it not only enhances the drink’s flavor profile but also supports local producers. This commitment to sustainability and quality resonates with a growing demographic of conscientious consumers.
Innovative Cocktails
The Savory Project’s cocktail menu features a diverse array of options, each showcasing unique flavor combinations. One of the standout offerings is the Thai Beef Salad which includes: mixed beef, coconut, peanut, chilli, kaffir lime and rum, a combination of umami and innovative flavours that leave you amazed from the first sip.
The Lab
After sampling some of their delicious cocktails, Ajid offered us the chance to visit their Lab located upstairs. Not just a simple laboratory, but a real room to share with friends for a family evening, perhaps drinking some new cocktail experiments.
The room is equipped with a counter and countless products on the shelves as well as state-of-the-art equipment so that all the staff can unleash their imagination by testing new cocktails to be included on the menu.
The Ambience
The Savory Project features an ambiance that complements its culinary ethos. The design merges contemporary aesthetics with a cozy, welcoming atmosphere, making it an ideal setting for both intimate gatherings and lively evenings with friends. Dim lighting and tasteful decor invite guests to immerse themselves in the experience.
