Zoku turns Wednesdays into a feast of free-flow plates, cocktails, and live beats

Every Wednesday night, Zoku & The Terrace brings the buzz of Tokyo’s nightlife to Hong Kong with This is Izakaya, a new dining series pairing free-flow eats, endless drinks, and live music.

For HKD368 per person, guests can dive into 90 minutes of izakaya favourites: salmon tartar tacos, spicy edamame, Kyushu chicken wings, teriyaki sake salmon skewers, and inventive sushi rolls like Kagoshima pork belly with pickled radish and miso lime. Add-ons such as tiger prawn tempura and soft-shell crab rolls keep things extra indulgent.

To set the mood, a rotating line-up of local talent brings live sounds every week in October:

  • 1/10 – International DJ Miles
  • 8/10 – Singer-songwriter Lili Forest 木子
  • 15/10 – Singer Kasey Pong
  • 22/10 – Performer & busker RT Wong
  • 29/10 – Songwriter Josh Dionisio

Drinks flow from Asahi and highballs to martinis and alcohol-free craft cocktails, while the vibe shifts each week with a fresh line-up of DJs and local performers. October features DJ Miles, singer-songwriter Lili Forest 木子, Kasey Pong, RT Wong, and Josh Dionisio.

Set against Zoku’s award-winning interiors—velvet banquettes, leather booths, and an origami-inspired ceiling, This is Izakaya turns midweek into the highlight of the week.
