while travelling through cities like london, sydney, melbourne, toronto and beyond, we noticed a growing trend: pasta places felt exciting, but most still clung tightly to rigid ideas of what italian food “should” be. while hong kong has its share of great pasta, few places dared to explore pasta’s full potential as a truly global, comfort food.

twist was born from a love for what pasta can be — a celebration of flavour, creativity, and the simple joy of eating. while we honour the roots of italian tradition and technique, we’re not bound by them. at twist, pasta is reimagined through a distinctly local lens, thoughtfully infused with the flavours, ingredients, and culinary memories of hong kong. every dish is made fresh, and treated as a canvas for bold, playful ideas—not to be different for the sake of it, but to spark joy and comfort in equal measure. it’s about creating food that feels both familiar and refreshingly new, driven by taste, not rules—and always rooted in the pleasure of a great meal shared.

though pasta takes centerstage, our snacks and small plates hold their own. simple, tasty, and globally inspired, they’re made for sharing, sparking conversation, and pairing effortlessly with drinks. the bar echoes the same spirit: imaginative cocktails with culinary flair, a global wine list that’s both thoughtful and approachable, and a curated selection of beers from hong kong, italy, japan, and beyond.

every detail—from the food and drinks programme, the premium, yet friendly hospitality, to the mid-century-inspired interiors and even the playlist that makes you want to dance all night—has been thoughtfully curated to create an experience that’s fun, welcoming, and unmistakably twist.

at twist, nothing is left as an afterthought. at twist, there is always something for everyone.
