Celebrate Cova's 30th Anniversary in Hong Kong with a Limited-Edition Cake and Special Menu

If you're a foodie and love Italian gastronomy, Cova is a name that you're sure to recognize. The brand has just celebrated its 30th anniversary in Hong Kong with a new limited-edition cake and a special menu that will be available until June 15, 2021.

About Cova

Cova is a heritage brand with roots in Milan, Italy, established in 1817 by Antonio Cova, one of Napoleon's generals. The brand is famous for its premium chocolates, Italian gastronomy, and signature mango dome cake. In 1993, Cova opened its first international outlet in Hong Kong, and since then, it has expanded to other major cities in Asia like Tokyo, Beijing, and Shanghai. In 2013, Cova became part of the LVMH group, which has solidified its luxury dining status.

30 Years in Hong Kong

When Cova first opened in Hong Kong 30 years ago, the dining scene was quite different from what it is today. "When we opened in Hong Kong, people only thought of French cuisine when it came to fine dining," recalls Cova's chief executive, Paola Faccioli. "People also preferred to drink tea rather than coffee."

Special Menu

To celebrate the 30th anniversary, Cova Ristorante & Caffe in Lee Garden One, Causeway Bay, has introduced an exclusive celebratory 30th-anniversary menu featuring white asparagus. The five-course menu begins with steamed white asparagus alongside smoked salmon and a creamy egg gremolata. It is followed by a white asparagus cream soup topped with seared scallops – a dish notable for its umami flavors. One of Cova's signature dishes is spaghetti with lobster, and the anniversary menu features a twist on the dish in which red prawn and squid ink spaghetti combine to give the dish a stronger seafood aroma. Main course options include pan-fried white cod with a light cream sauce and grilled US prime rib-eye, both accompanied by white asparagus. For dessert, the kitchen at Cova has prepared a panettone semifreddo, a summer take on the traditional Italian holiday bread, complemented by zabaglione and Moscato sauce.

Limited-Edition Cake

The brand has introduced a limited-edition mango millefoglie, a 256-layer puff pastry filled with Chantilly cream and topped with diced fresh mango as a twist on the original mango dome cake. The mango millefoglie will be available until June 15.

Conclusion

Cova's 30th anniversary in Hong Kong is a milestone that highlights the brand's success and its continued commitment to providing customers with high-quality Italian gastronomy. If you're in Hong Kong, don't miss the opportunity to try the limited-edition cake and special menu.
