Dirty martini FOUNTAIN of my dreams! 🍸🫒 Happy 3 years @barleonehk - forever proud of the team for putting Hong Kong on the map by being named the No. 1 bar in the world on @50bestbars 🇭🇰💪🏽 Comment “hong kong” to get my personal list of my favorite bars in this city sent to your inbox along with exactly what to order at @barleonehk!

While the award has made it a lot more difficult to get into (you either need to wait in line for the first seating, or put your name on a waitlist to return a few hours later), it was nice to see the bar return to the days before the awards as it was largely filled with friends in the F&B industry for their 3rd anniversary party 🎉

They pulled out all the stops for their Grand Leone Hotel party with endless mortadella sandwiches, guest shifts from fellow @50bestbars from around the world, fried chicken with caviar, a charcuterie buffet, tequila shot & cigarette towers, @carolkgtam on the decks, and even @shakeshackhongkong as a nod to their collab a couple of years ago 🍔

I recently brought visitors on a normal night without the bells and whistles though, and we still all had a truly great time enjoying their Italian cocktails and delish bar snacks in the warm and lively space they’ve become known for 🔥

Congrats @lorenzoantinori_ @j.chinois @justinvanillawafer and team on your continued success! 🍾

Some of the best businesses in the world started with a simple love for F&B hospitality. This is one of those stories. 🎥

Welcome to the #KLCW Entrepreneur Series — a 6-part collection of honest conversations with the founders, operators and visionaries shaping the future of hospitality across Asia.

We’re starting with someone who needs little introduction. Meet Justin Shun Wah (@j.chinois) — co-founder of Bar Leone (@barleonehk) (Hong Kong & Shanghai) and Montana (@montanabarhk), and one of the most compelling voices in Asia’s bar scene today.

In our first episode of the KLCW Entrepreneur Series, Justin opens up about what drew him into hospitality, what keeps him in it, and the vision behind building bars that feel genuinely alive. Bar Leone didn’t just land on World’s 50 Best Bars — it made the world pay attention to what Hong Kong hospitality could be. But behind the accolades is a founder who leads with instinct, intention, and a deep belief in the people around him.

This series is made in collaboration with BMW (@bmwmalaysia), our #KLCW Drink Responsibly partner.
