Falcone

FALCONE is a deep dive into the frenetic energy, animated streets, and simple food made fatto a mano of Campania’s capital, where life is embraced in all of its colours and emotions – the highs and the lows; the romance and the grit. The muted chatter that turns into incoherent shouting, and the friendly honks of mopeds haphazardly weaving in and out, Napoli would not be Napoli without all of its chaotic joy.

Falcone, a Western or Italian restaurant in Central, Central and Western, is at Shop 1082, IFC Mall, 8 Finance St, Central, Hong Kong Island. Before heading over it is worth checking the hours, phone number and Google rating below, so the trip is not wasted.

When choosing a restaurant, check whether the menu shows prices and the service charge, whether you need to book, and whether there are vegetarian or children's options. Restaurants must hold a licence from the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department, usually displayed inside. Lunar New Year, Mother's Day, Christmas and New Year's Eve are peak booking times, and some restaurants offer set menus or add a surcharge on festive days, so ask ahead. Many Western restaurants offer weekday set lunches that cost less than dinner; mention any food allergies when ordering.

Google lists the opening hours as daily, 11:30–21:30. It is open seven days a week.

Central is part of the Central and Western District on Hong Kong Island. The north shore of Hong Kong Island is one of the densest business areas in the city: the MTR Island Line runs from Kennedy Town to Chai Wan, the trams ("ding dings") between Kennedy Town and Shau Kei Wan, and many businesses trade from upper floors of office blocks and older tenement buildings. The south side is known for beaches, trails and fishing harbours such as Repulse Bay, Stanley and the Aberdeen typhoon shelter, which get busy at weekends and on public holidays. Central is Hong Kong's financial and business heart; the Central–Mid-Levels escalator links the streets up the hill, Lan Kwai Fong and SoHo come alive at night, and the Central piers serve the Outlying Islands.
