CAVIAR NIGHT AT TOSCA
Knit from Miranda Tsui's
Repertoire collection
KNIT WIT
Fashion designer Miranda Tsui debuts a capsule
collection of knitwear with an exhibition at Sin Sin

examination of the value of knitting – a millennia-old
clothes-making tradition – as well as ways through
which this art form can be preserved. Five per cent of
purchases go to charity.
WHEN? November 1-11
WHERE? Sin Sin Atelier, 52 Sai Street, Central,

Two-star Michelin chef Pino Lavarra has created a decadent six-course menu
featuring a selection of sustainable premium caviar, meaning the fish are farmed
under natural and ecologically compatible conditions to prevent wild sturgeon
from going extinct. Safe in this knowledge, diners can sit back and enjoy the
spectacular views at Tosca, while enjoying Lavarra’s exquisite creations. Each
dish is presented like artwork on a plate and, more impressively, tastes even
better than it looks. Potatoes focaccia with mimosa egg and white sturgeon
caviar is surprisingly light and tasty [pictured]; sea tiramisu with Mediterranean
red prawns carpaccio and rice crackers with Adriatic caviar is a skilful
combination of flavours and textures – our favourite dish of the evening. Other
courses are equally outstanding – spaghetti with caviar, chives and seaweed
may appear simple yet the tastes are distinctive, and the last savoury course of
poached lobster tail complements Oscietra caviar particularly well. We finish
with two desserts: cherrie cake with raspberry coulis and pistachio cream sauce,
followed by a chocolate box of truffles. The wine pairing is another highlight of
the evening, thanks to the restaurant’s expert sommelier team.
Available until December 23 at Tosca, 102/F, The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong,ICC,
1 Austin Road West, Kowloon. For reservations, call 2263 2270 or email
