Tate Dining Room special event

This week, head to 1-Michelin-starred TATE Dining Room to join Chef & Owner Vicky Lau, along with seven inspiring female figures from a variety of industries, for a special one night only dinner.  The special International Women’s Day menu will be priced at HK$1,780, with sommelier-led drinks pairing starting at an additional HK$480.

Delight your daughter with a feminist purchase

Empower your daughter (and support a Hong Kong-based mumpreneur) with a friendly, feminist t-shirt or cap from Our Girls Gang. We believe girls do rock and all young ladies should be encouraged to slay their our own dragons. Oh, so many cute options.

Where: Online
When: Always

International Womens Day Hong Kong
Being a feminist never looked so cute!

Celebrate fabulous women with bubbles made by a woman!

If you’re looking for a way to say ‘you’re incredible’ to a special female in your life, buy her a bottle of Nyetimber bubbles. Nyetimber’s Head Winemaker, Cherie Spriggs, is the first female winemaker to win Sparkling Winemaker of the year, PLUS she’s the first non-French winemaker (male or female) to snatch the title. Inspired! Nyetimber is an English sparkling wine that is giving French Champagne a run for its money, so it’s a great gift. You can buy a bottle in Hong Kong from Watsons Wines now, or look at for it at luxury bars like M Bar at the Mandarin.
