Top Hong Kong bartender Stefano Bussi talks about his new cocktail menu at The Aubrey
Stefano Bussi was born to be behind the bar. 'My family owned a small cafe in Italy. My mother often said I made my first negroni when I was eight years old,' he says. His career started with working seasonal jobs at various hotels, with a secret aspiration to perhaps become a sommelier. 'But as soon as I touched the shaker for the first time, I felt safe, like I could express myself.' Bussi's career has taken him around the globe. He has worked in prestigious bars and hotels in Italy, France, Spain, Germany, England, Australia, Macau and finally Hong Kong. He was named bartender of the year for Hong Kong and Macau at the Diageo World Class 2024 cocktail competition. This year, he was recognised as one of the top 10 bartenders in Wine Luxe's 2025 Hong Kong & Macau Top Ten Bar Awards, in which he also won the Young Bartender Award.

Jeh Vas, the overnight Hong Kong YouTube and social media smash hit, pledged last week to fight for football in the city to gain global recognition. A good enough player to be asked for a 2017 trial at Real Zaragoza in Spain, Vas quit his office job last year to dedicate himself to his increasingly popular football content-creation empire. 'I was saying no to brand deals, because I did not have time to film, so I decided to take a leap of faith,' he said on Thursday. Vas, 27, and his three full-time staff work from 9am to 10pm daily to deliver new content for an audience spanning more than 60,000 YouTube subscribers and 114,000 on Instagram. 'Everything we do is authentic and original; we spend hours brainstorming to generate ideas for the week,' Vas said. 'When people click subscribe, I owe them good, fresh content.' Ahead of the recent Hong Kong Football Festival, Tottenham Hotspur contacted Vas with a 'dream collaboration' opportunity.
