French, Different Experience, Michelin, Chicken

LALA, the latest addition to Hong Kong’s Central dining scene, is a French brasserie that exudes casual elegance and culinary finesse. Behind the scenes is a powerhouse duo: Michelin-starred chef Franckelie Laloum, formerly of Louise, and hospitality veteran Michael Larkin. Together, they’ve created a space where timeless French cuisine meets relaxed sophistication. Laloum, raised in Provence with a deep appreciation for fresh produce, brings his rooted passion to every plate. His menu is a celebration of French culinary tradition, featuring delicacies like pâté en croûte, vol-au-vent, and frog’s legs, each crafted with precision and finesse. Larger plates, like Angus beef tenderloin flambéed with kampot pepper sauce and charcoal-grilled turbot with Hollandaise, showcase bold flavours with refined technique. Step inside and you’ll find a space that feels effortlessly Parisian – inviting yet chic. Whether you’re lingering over wine or indulging in a multi-course dinner, LALA offers a dining experience that’s both elevated and approachable. It’s French food without the fuss – but all the flavour.
