A MENU SHAPED BY TRADITION, REWORKED WITH DETAIL
A British summer menu that feels lighter and more vibrant, while staying rooted in tradition. The Lincolnshire Poacher Soufflé ‘Arnold Bennett’ remains a signature, joined by new starters like lobster tart with Sauternes apples and a crumpet with Iberico ham, poached egg and truffle vinaigrette.
Seafood leads with dishes such as shrimp bisque and steamed seabass with basil and caviar velouté, while vegetables are given equal focus through asparagus with pearl barley and a coal-roasted broth.
Larger plates highlight British butchery, from Dingley Dell pork with black pudding and apple to venison loin with morels and peas, alongside a lighter potato gnocchi with broccoli and pine nuts. Desserts stay classic, with crème brûlée, Bakewell tart, and staples like sticky toffee pudding and Arctic roll.
A NEW MIDDAY MENU: THURSDAY TO SATURDAY
A new Midday Menu (Thursday–Saturday) offers a structured daytime experience, moving from starters through mains to classic British desserts. Starters range from the Magistracy Spring Salad to richer options like prawn bisque and Coronation chicken on crumpet, with steak tartare available as a supplement.
Mains focus on comfort, including Three Yellow Chicken Pie, beer-battered halibut, slow-cooked pork jowl, and a lighter mascarpone risotto, alongside sides such as confit potatoes and creamed spinach. Desserts keep to tradition with sticky toffee pudding and a Knickerbocker Glory. Priced at HK$428 (two courses) and HK$488 (three courses), plus 10% service charge.
AFTERNOON TEA: FRIDAY AND SATURDAY FROM 1PM
fternoon Tea at Magistracy Dining Room (Friday–Saturday from 1pm) follows a classic format with a more relaxed, celebratory feel.
