About Us

Life begins at the edge of the world. That breaking point where the city touches the ocean.

In a bygone era, Hong Kong had a name for it: ‘the praya’, from the old Portuguese – land reclaimed from the sea, a waterfront promenade as a symbol of the city’s modernity. A new harbourfront where one could gaze out across the waters and welcome in experiences from lands far off.

At The Praya, our name is more than symbolic. Though long landlocked, our restaurant proudly upholds ideals that once defined Hong Kong: to seek inspiration from places near and far, as we strive to redefine modern Chinese cuisine.

Sustainability

Sustainability goes hand in hand with the success of The Praya and plays a vital role in what we do. At The Praya, sustainability comes in many different forms. For instance, our restaurant has been designed using sustainable building materials such as bio-degradable wood panelling, reclaimed wood accents, and windows using low-emissivity glass (also known as Low-E glass) which help block the rays of the sun to keep the heat inside when it is cold and outside when it is hot. This directly translates to reduced carbon footprint and improved air quality within the restaurant. In addition, our threadfins are sourced from a local fish farm in Sai Kung. As a sustainable fish farm, all threadfin hatchlings were captive-bred and purchased from a reputable supplier, thereby cutting down wild-caught fishes, which directly reduces the degradation of local marine ecology and maintains a robust biodiversity.

We are firm believers of enhancing the overall wellbeing of our guests and reducing environmental impact without sacrificing the quality of our food and champion local ingredients in a way that not only benefits local businesses but also our guests' dining experience.

Mission & Vision

We are committed to bringing timeless domestic conventions to our premium neighbourhood restaurant. Dishes are designed to be shared and hospitality is at the forefront, shaping a space where the people behind-the-scenes are as essential as those entering our doors.

That extends beyond our walls, and back out to the city – because it is the Hong Kong stories that matter to us and the folks that tell them. Each relationship we cultivate champions homegrown culture and craftsmen, from seafood sourced at local market stalls to the fishermen who trawl Aberdeen’s harbour.
