Peak Bar
Ryan Andrews
I’ve been accused of many things in my life, some not so flattering. Being a huge pizza snob can be added to the list.
With NYC credentials, I like to think I know a little bit about the round disc of love. The bottom line is that Hong Kong is a bad pizza town. I’d say 'serviceable' would be an apt description.
You have your fast food pies and a few other joints that are making a concerted effort at kicking out something the folks in Naples wouldn’t cringe at. Peak Bar is one of them. They have a brick oven and one of the best people-watching spots in Hong Kong.
I recently had a salami and ham with 'shrooms and green pepper for $120 that easily fed two. The crust is somewhere between thick and thin and has a bit of a cornmeal kick. It came adorned with a handful of rocket and they have a amazing chili oil that adds an extra kick.
They offer close to 20 different options. With decent tunes and a huge beer list, I can’t think of a much better place to waste away a Saturday afternoon.
9-13 Shelley St, SoHo, Central.
