Have you seen/read Crazy Rich Asians?!
A fantastic trilogy that I highly recommend reading (it’s a page-turner!), the film based on the first book came out last summer and I’m not ashamed to say that I flew down to Hong Kong over October holiday to watch it in the theatre (before I knew it would be playing in mainland)! And one of the best scenes in the film is when the main characters first fly into Singapore and pig out on all the Hawker stands in a gigantic, sprawling food court. With so many of our favorite street snacks slowly disappearing/getting bricked up, you can imagine the food envy I felt as I watched that scene on the big screen.
KUP KUP KUP aims to capture this dining concept reminiscent of all the amazing food halls that you’d find all across Southeast Asia and bring it to Beijing. Serving a variety of Southeast Asian street food specialties found in Northern Thailand, Northern Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore, the restaurant design is a fun and playful setting with a ceiling full of dangling illumination.
Still in soft opening phase (they’ll be launching their full menu starting January 28th), we had the privilege of playing guinea pigs and taste our way through some of their dishes!
