Starting November 5, 2026, Hotel ICON’s flagship buffet destination, The Market, is redefining the weekend dining scene in Hong Kong. The restaurant has unveiled a completely upgraded Weekend Brunch centered on an “Unlimited Oyster & Seafood” theme, promising a luxurious afternoon of freshly shucked bivalves and free-flowing sparkling wine in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui.
Unlimited Oysters and Bubbly: The Main Event
The undisputed star of this revamped brunch is the live shucking station, where chefs expertly open seasonal oysters to order. The experience goes far beyond the raw bar. A sprawling chilled seafood display invites diners to load their plates with sweet Alaskan king crab legs, plump tiger prawns, briny mussels, and succulent lobster claws paired with crisp, unlimited sparkling wine.
A Global Feast: From Roasted Lamb to Hainanese Chicken Rice
For those seeking something warm, The Market’s seven live cooking stations deliver a world-class culinary tour. The hot section features a robust lineup of roasted lamb rack, rich lobster bisque, and scallops baked with a creamy seafood cheese sauce.
Reflecting the restaurant’s multicultural DNA, Thai Chef Jack and Indian Chef Veerayan Ravi personally oversee their respective stations, presenting authentic street-food-inspired dishes. Highlights include a Thai grilled meat section and one of the city’s most beloved Hainanese Chicken Rice, ensuring every diner finds a familiar comfort dish executed at the highest level.
Sweet Temptations: Durian and GODIVA
No visit to The Market is complete without exploring its legendary dessert section. The new brunch pays homage to the “King of Fruits” with an exclusive durian corner featuring mini D24 durian cheese tarts, silky housemade durian ice cream, and smooth durian panna cotta.
Just when dessert cannot get more indulgent, the restaurant offers an exclusive DIY GODIVA soft-serve ice cream station—a first in Hong Kong—allowing guests to craft their perfect chocolate swirl to cap off the meal.
Weekday Dining Gets a Grilled Upgrade
The fresh concepts are not limited to weekends. The Market has also introduced a new Japanese Ishiyaki Seafood station for its weekday lunch and dinner buffets. Diners can take control of the cooking, grilling fresh local squid, shucked oysters, and whole crab (available during dinner service) directly at their table on a heated stone grill. This interactive twist adds a smoky, robust dimension to the Southeast Asian and Japanese flavors already on offer.
