Bar Leone, freshly crowned number one at Asia’s 50 Best Bars 2024, and neo-Neapolitan pizzeria FALCONE are joining forces for an unforgettable one-night event on 8th September. Titled “ROMA vs NAPOLI,” this exciting collaboration will transform Bar Leone’s kitchen into a pasta-fueled, cocktail-driven celebration of Italian culture, bringing together the best of Rome and Naples in SoHo, Hong Kong.
From 4pm until late, guests can experience an Italian culinary spectacle as Chef Josh Stumbaugh of FALCONE serves up five signature dishes, including:
- Carciofi e Stracciatella (HK$120)
- Frittatina di Pasta (HK$98)
- Rigatoni alla Genovese (HK$150)
- Penne al Pomodoro (HK$110)
- Spaghetti alla Maradona (HK$110), a tribute to the Napoli football legend, Diego Maradona.
To sweeten the deal, Bar Leone will offer a special dessert, the Leone Tiramisu (HK$90), created just for the evening. Behind the bar, Lorenzo Antinori, founder of Bar Leone and cocktail expert, will craft exclusive cocktails blending Roman and Neapolitan influences, perfectly pairing with the food.
Adding to the ambiance, DJ Neeno will spin tunes all night, creating a festive Italian vibe. For extra fun, guests can also challenge each other at a game of Biliardino Balilla (foosball), while exclusive Falcone x Bar Leone merchandise will be available for purchase to commemorate the event.
With limited food, drinks, and merchandise, this walk-in-only event promises to be a hit, so guests are encouraged to come hungry, thirsty, and ready to enjoy. Mark your calendars for 8th September at Bar Leone, where the spirit of Italy’s greatest cities will collide in an evening of food, drinks, and fun.
