Coffee creations

"Crealto" is back! A blend of Arabic coffees long-roasted and packed into a neat little Nespresso capsule, this coffee has subtle nutty undertones whether taken as an espresso or with a dash of milk. Sounds good? Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong, is attending to your java needs. Whether in its pure form or transformed into a meal of its own, coffee is the star of the show at the hotel from September 1 to 14. At Petrus, the chefs have conjured up elegant dishes to showcase the coffee, pairing the aromatic ingredient with the likes of foie gras and roasted duck breast. Meanwhile, for those with a sweet tooth, there are Crealto macaroons and chocolate coffee sticks available at Island Gourmet.
