Although Hong Kong’s trendy food scene is already diverse, there’s always room for something fresh. This year, foodies are abuzz over a new spot called “busy suzie,” once again presented by the founder of the renowned local hotspot “dragon-i,” Alan Yiu. It introduces an innovative and surprising Japanese robatayaki dining concept, now making its bold debut at 1881 Heritage in Tsim Sha Tsui!
The one-of-a-kind circular robatayaki restaurant and bar, busy suzie, is located at 1881 Heritage in Tsim Sha Tsui. This historic site was formerly a lighthouse used to display typhoon signals in Hong Kong and is an iconic building that once served as the former Marine Police Headquarters. The restaurant showcases an ultra-stylish contemporary Asian fusion style, offering exquisite Japanese cuisine prepared with the freshest ingredients, along with a wide selection of Japanese sake, delivering a truly unique dining experience.
Robatayaki originated in Sendai, the largest city in northeastern Japan, evolving from the culinary culture where fishermen used to cook fresh fish over an open flame on simple beachside restaurant tables using wooden oars. At busy suzie, the robatayaki chefs still serve dishes using wooden paddles, creating an interesting contrast with the Chinese-style rotating Lazy Susan platform where diners help themselves. The entire interior design of the restaurant was crafted by the renowned French design duo Gilles & Boissier, presenting a world-class and delightfully engaging dining experience.
The cuisine at busy suzie is meticulously prepared using premium fresh ingredients flown in daily from Japan. The menu features a variety of authentic Japanese delicacies, including rich and flavorful Miyazaki sirloin beef skewers, Yamaguchi chicken skewers, a range of fresh seafood dishes, as well as an array of signature appetizers, sushi and sashimi, tempura, and Japanese vegetables. The sake list is extensive, featuring a wide selection of top-tier sake, unmatched across Hong Kong. Even the waitstaff uniforms are thoughtfully designed by Hong Kong’s celebrated fashion designer William Lee, perfectly complementing the elegant atmosphere crafted by internationally renowned lighting designer Isometrix.
Staying true to the urban-chic style of dragon-i, busy suzie blends high-end cuisine with traditional elements, making it the perfect choice for diners seeking a distinctive Japanese dining experience. It currently offers a new lunch experience, including a seafood robatayaki set, Australian wagyu tenderloin set, sushi and soba set, as well as a grilled fish and shellfish set. Those looking to try something new can enjoy an innovative Japanese robatayaki feast.
