Top Deck at the Jumbo,
a new 300-seat, 9,000 sq ft restaurant, bar and al fresco lounge is set
to open on the rooftop of one of Hong Kong's most famous icons - the Jumbo Floating Restaurant in Aberdeen.
The restaurant, scheduled to open in October
2005, is the latest venture of the Cafe Deco Group, renowned for Cafe Deco at The Peak.
With indoor and outdoor seating, the new “lifestyle venue” will feature oyster and sushi bars with vibrant ‘show kitchens’ focusing on fresh seafood prepared in a
variety of ways.
Top Deck at the Jumbo successfully combines the original Chinese fixtures
and fittings with contemporary design elements to appeal to a broad cross section of the
community.
Separate pagodas with fabulous harbour views provide intimate dining for up to 8 people, and the private dining room can accommodate up to 40 persons.
Top Deck at the Jumbo
can accommodate up to 700 guests for cocktail receptions, or 300 guests for sit down dinners.
“Top Deck will lend a new lease of life to this unique space atop a superbly renovated, legendary Hong Kong landmark,” said Martin Allies, president of the Cafe Deco
Group.
“The need for a casual yet fun and relaxing restaurant of some size and significance on the south side of Hong Kong Island is well known.
To be able to do this on one of Hong Kong’s few remaining icons, positioned with high visibility in Aberdeen Harbour is a remarkable opportunity. It will be a unique
outdoor dining experience, either for relaxing drinks, intimate dinners or large scale functions as a major entertainment and events venue,” Allies continued.
Insisting the concept will “complement rather than compete” with the Chinese restaurants on decks below, he predicts Top Deck at the Jumbo will become the “talking
point of Hong Kong”, a landmark restaurant on the “must visit” itinerary of tourists and locals.
With car parking (at Aberdeen Marina Club or Jumbo Court Parking) and valet parking right at the harbour side at Shum Wan Pier, and complimentary mooring for diners
arriving by boat, guests arrive in Jumbo-style aboard a specially designed Jumbo ferry or traditional sampan.
