While death and being sick in Hong Kong is a taboo, Dr. Fern's Gin Parlour broke this taboo at the Landmark a few years ago.Not familiar to HKers, I found the entrance very comforting as it was very similar to the Doctors place where I went as a child because I come from a Victorian seaside town.There are two doors, both have frosted wired glass panes. One says waiting room while the other is the Doctors room.I doubt HKers could relate to the surroundings but it is definitely a brilliant hideout
Not familiar to HKers, I found the entrance very comforting as it was very similar to the Doctors place where I went as a child because I come from a Victorian seaside town.
There are two doors, both have frosted wired glass panes.
One says waiting room while the other is the Doctors room.
I doubt HKers could relate to the surroundings but it is definitely a brilliant hideout with a good variety of gins.
Inside you will find old fashioned furniture and decor which transport you back to the Victorian era.
Quite a lot has changed since the last visit, the staff are no longer wearing Doctor style white coats.The drinks menu has more option as too:
Having fallen in love with Gin, I went for the Whitley Neill quince with Fever Tree Indian Tonic garnished with gin jelly, plum and apple.
I absolutely loved it because it was sweet as pie because of the Quince.The gin jelly at the bottom was delicious and the thinly sliced plum slices skewer were infused with the drink.
Also had the fruit tea which was the best tea as it had real fruit so definitely no regrets ordering it.
Other drinks we had:Ki No Bi Gin & Goldberg Yuzu Tonic.
The receipt could do with more humour though with diagnosis and prescriptions added to it and for fun you can try submitting it to your company account dept and see if they fall for it!
