Just last October, Hong Kong welcomed a new addition to its already vibrant dining scene. Introducing BÀRBAR, a casual Spanish-style wine bar and tapas bar, situated on Wan Chai’s Ship Street. With the concept of combining a wine bar and a tapas bar, BÀRBAR is a multi-faceted venue offering an impressively extensive selection of Spanish wines by the glass, curated by the bar’s own Spanish culinary specialists and Spanish wine sommeliers. In addition to several classic and popular wine labels, BÀRBAR also serves Spanish sherries, artisan craft gins and Spanish sparkling wines.
As for the tapas part, BÀRBAR is inspired by the social tapas culture of Spanish cities like Madrid and Barcelona. Under the restaurant’s Spanish Chef and Culinary Director, Edgard Sanuy Barahona – famed for the modern tapas bar Pica Pica in Sheung Wan, the inspired dishes are served tapas-style, or in small-plate format, allowing diners to taste a variety of options.
BÀRBAR’s menu is Spanish ingredient-driven, with a traditional yet playful approach, utilising age-old and modern methods for lunch and dinner. The venue showcases a contemporarily sleek design comprising timber, marble and intuitive lighting. Bask in the elegant wine bar area, at the communal dining table, or the dining counter where the open kitchen showcases the chefs in action.
