BISTROT
Belon is a neo-Parisian bistro showcasing French-rooted yet locally influenced cooking created with the best available ingredients in the form of well-executed basics made from scratch. Reminiscent of the dynamic food scene found in Paris’s 11th arrondissement, Belon presents a refreshing genre of French cuisine in a pared-down SoHo space that allows the restaurant’s sincere approach to food to shine.
BELON WAS AWARDED ONE STAR IN THE 2019 MICHELIN GUIDE AND A PLACE ON ASIA’S 50 BEST RESTAURANT LIST.

Using only the best ingredients from both Hong Kong and abroad, each of Chef Calvert’s dishes is prepared with exceptional technique and skilful execution, with some taking over four days to create. Elevated French basics, such as naturally leavened bread and roast chicken with pommes Anna, are made from scratch daily, showcasing the team’s uncompromising dedication to producing familiar dishes in their best form.
Chef Daniel Calvert
After ten years in Michelin-starred kitchens, Daniel Calvert brings passion and precision to his role at BELON. With an impressive career featuring placements at The Ivy, Pied à Terre, Per Se and Epicure at Le Bristol, Calvert's foundations remain unmatched by peers of his 30 years. Granted access to the best of international and local produce, and the freedom to cook whatever he likes as long as it is “inherently excellent”, Calvert’s management of the BELON kitchen is a continuation of both his, and the restaurant’s excellence.
CALVERT IS THE YOUNGEST CHEF IN HONG KONG TO HOLD A MICHELIN STAR, AWARDED IN THE 2019 MICHELIN GUIDE.
