Hong Kongers planning a Shenzhen day trip have a delicious new reason to cross the border this autumn. Beginning October 24, 2026, travel platform KKday will launch an exclusive Double 11 flash sale at the Marriott Café inside the JW Marriott Shenzhen (Tower Place). The headline act is a weekday lunch buffet priced from just $111 per person, perfectly timed for the wave of cross-border travellers seeking premium dining without the city-state price tag.
The Specifics of the Sale
The promotion runs from 12:00 PM on October 24 until 11:59 PM on October 30, 2026. While the $111 early bird lunch steals the show, the “buy one, get one free” (BOGO) offers provide exceptional value for couples and families.
- Early Bird Weekday Lunch: $111 per person (original price $503)
- BOGO Lunch (Mon–Fri): $372 for two (just $186 per person)
- BOGO Lunch (Sat–Sun): $502 for two ($251 per person)
- BOGO Seafood Dinner (Daily): $668 for two ($334 per person)
All prices are fully inclusive of service charges and taxes, so there are no hidden surprises at checkout.
What’s on the Menu?
The lunch buffet features seasonal garlic and Sichuan-style crayfish alongside unlimited salmon sashimi. Weekend lunch goes a step further with plated hairy crab, fresh oysters, and Brazilian BBQ beef ribs. Families are well looked after too: the hotel operates a dedicated children’s play corner with activities, and each paying adult can bring one child aged six or under to dine for free.
The evening seafood buffet (6:00 PM – 9:30 PM) is where the kitchen truly flexes its credentials. Until October 31, the restaurant is hosting a Thai Food Festival, gifting each diner a portion of Thai lobster while laying out an extensive spread of tom yum goong, green curry chicken, and mango sticky rice. Regular highlights include live seafood stations (prawns, scallops, razor clams, three-spot crabs, and oysters), a carving section boasting tomahawk steak and dry-aged beef, and a raw bar loaded with imported salmon, tuna, and octopus. Free-flow drinks featuring sparkling wine, red wine, and beer are included.
Logistics and Booking Tips
The JW Marriott Shenzhen sits directly beside Chegongmiao MTR station, just one stop from Futian Port, making it exceptionally convenient for a day trip from Hong Kong.
To book, visit the KKday website during the sale window. BOGO deals require the purchase of two sets, and slots are likely to fill quickly given the Double 11 frenzy. Readers are advised to check the latest terms and conditions on the KKday platform before purchasing, as menus and availability may be subject to seasonal changes.
A New Benchmark for Cross-Border Dining
This partnership between KKday and the JW Marriott Shenzhen illustrates how deeply the dining scenes of Hong Kong and Shenzhen have become intertwined. For those accustomed to paying triple at similar Hong Kong hotel buffets, the value proposition here is undeniable. It shifts the narrative of Shenzhen day trips from quick bubble tea runs and bargain shopping to serious, luxury-level gastronomy—all reachable by a short MTR ride from Central. Mark your calendars for October 24, and act fast to secure your table.
