And the bartenders are super nice – they’re a great contrast to the occasional “divas” you might encounter on some nights. The party usually kicks off on Thursday, with crowds swelling on Friday and Saturday. In addition to the good grub, enjoy cocktails and Vietnamese beers during their daily happy hour between 5 and 7 p.m.
Fukuro – A late-night izakaya in SoHo with great sake and delightful food.
But for your occasional splurge, it’s pretty fine.
Some nights, you can sing karaoke, but that’s not really the appeal (at least to me). Dates: 2026 to be announced.
Floatilla Hong Kong – On the second Saturday of October every year, Haus of Circuit hosts a massive gay event on the water near Lamma Island. The hotel boasts ten fantastic restaurants and bars, including three with Michelin stars.
The best part is that you can cover a lot of ground while barely lifting a foot.
Tian Tan Buddha and Po Lin Monastery – Located in Ngong Ping on Lantau Island, these iconic attractions are reachable via the scenic Ngong Ping 360 cable cars. The crowd is also a nice mix of young and old, so I’m sure you’ll find a few buddies to join you as you play!
