Island Shangri-La’s cafe TOO launches a three-day flash promotion starting August 10, featuring up to buy-two-get-two-free deals and an all-new Japanese crab series, with lunch prices dropping to HK$284 per person.
Food lovers in Hong Kong have reason to celebrate as the popular cafe TOO at Island Shangri-La rolls out an irresistible summer finale flash sale. The hotel’s renowned buffet restaurant, already celebrated for its extensive international spread, is offering a limited-time promotion from August 10 to 12, with dining valid through September 22. The deal comes alongside the launch of a brand-new “Japanese Crab Series” debuting on August 9, transforming the buffet into a crab lover’s paradise.
The flash promotion delivers multiple discount tiers: buy-two-get-two-free for Monday-to-Thursday lunch (excluding public holidays), buy-two-get-one-free available daily for both lunch and dinner, and a 50% discount for the second adult across all service periods. Shangri-La Circle members also enjoy an additional 20% off, making the already attractive pricing even more compelling.
Fresh Crab Creations Take Center Stage
The newly introduced crab series elevates the buffet with an impressive array of globally inspired seafood dishes. Guests can indulge in chilled king crab, three-spot crab, and bread crab from the ice-cold seafood station, alongside hot dishes like steamed crab with lotus leaf and minced pork, white pepper crab clay pot, Thai curry bread crab, and tempura snow crab legs.
“Each crab dish is crafted to highlight the natural sweetness of the seafood while incorporating diverse culinary traditions,” a restaurant spokesperson noted. “The steamed egg custard with sea urchin and crab meat, for example, combines delicate textures with bold umami flavors.”
Five Japanese-Themed Zones Offer Premium Indulgences
Beyond the crab specialties, cafe TOO has transformed its buffet layout into five distinct Japanese-inspired dining zones:
- Sashimi and Sushi Station: Featuring seasonal fresh cuts and hand-rolled specialties
- Premium Wagyu Corner (dinner only): Showcasing top-grade Japanese beef
- Japanese Hot Dishes Section: Presenting traditional comfort foods
- Ramen Station: Offering made-to-order steaming bowls
- Dessert Zone: Curating both Japanese and international sweet treats
