There's no better time than summer to indulge in light, refreshing desserts. Coco at The Mira has just unveiled a limited edition collaboration between celebrated French
pastry chef Grégory Doyen and the hotel's executive pastry chef Smita Grosse. Ideal for sharing, their custom box of petit gâteaux includes four mini cakes – two of which are Doyen's Sunny Side Up, a chocolate egg infused with banana coulis and marshmallow, and Grosse's graceful Madame Butterfly, layered with raspberry-kaffir lime confit and lychee jelly.
For something more decadent, dive into chef Doyen's signature purple berries cake, where oolong cream, chocolate mousse and red berry compote come together in a midday treat.
Where: G/F, Lobby, The Mira Hong Kong, 118-130 Nathan Road, Tsim Sha Tsui
