YOU CAN HEAR the late-afternoon buzz in the kitchen of Spanish restaurant Catalunya in Wan Chai. Slices of bread are spread with a layer of truffle paste, which will be combined with Iberico ham and mozzarella cheese for the crisp-on-the-outside, gooey-on-the-inside Bikini sandwiches.
Fresh fruits are pitted and chopped, all ready to be infused with different aromatic herbs, such as mint and cloves, for the seasonal fruit salad dessert bowl, which is presented with puffs of dry ice.
