We’ve always said that Hong Kong is always willing to rally as a community when called on, and this is another touching example. Bar veteran Luca Andrei of Lockdown recently sustained serious injuries during the World’s 50 Best Bars festivities, and since he cannot be behind the bar during his long road to recovery, his ‘family’ of Hong Kong bar personalities are stepping up to do it for him.
Eight names that any regular bar punter will recognise – including Bar Leone’s Lorenzo Antinori, Beckaly Franks, Amir Javaid of Socio and Gossip, Gagan Gurung, and more – are gathering for one night in a show of solidarity, where all of the proceeds will go directly to Andrei’s medical and living expenses. Rock up to Barcode from 7pm onwards on December 1 to pitch in how you can.
