Zoku at The Hari Hong Kong revives its eccentric sukiyaki cheese fondue to chase away the winter chill, blending Swiss Emmental and Tokachi cheeses with premium sake in a simmering pot for dippable delights at The Terrace alfresco bar. The lush, greenery-framed space in Wan Chai offers vegetarian accompaniments like shiitake mushrooms, broccolini and Japanese sweet potatoes, with condiments including shichimi and yuzu kosho.
