Special! Teaming up with Heliservices, THE PENINSULA in Hong Kong has launched a series of "Flightseeing" packages that include a 30-minutes helicopter tour around Hong Kong before you disembark on the hotel's rooftop helipad for lunch or dinner. You can go buffet-style at The Verandah, Chinese at Spring Moon, French at Gaddi's, Swiss at Chesa, or Pacific Rim at Felix (the latter is available only for dinner, while Chesa is available only for lunch). While the menus are set, you're given a lot of options. If you can't make up your mind about which restaurant to choose, you can opt for a "Culinary Journey", an experience that starts with canapés at The Bar and then progresses to delicate shark's fin soup., braised abalone and other Cantonese dishes from Spring Moon before stopping off for desserts at Felix's Long Table. The price of this fly-and-dine experience ranges from HK$5,440 for two or HK$5,880 for four for lunch to HK$7,400 for two or HK$9,800 for four for the Culinary Journey. The Peninsula also offers the Grand Chef's Table, which for $48,888 per group of up to 10 guests, offers a gastronomical journey of all the hotel's outlets, with eight chefs in attendance for your evening. 10 Great New Hotel Restaurants |

If you can stand the heat, get into the kitchen. Several hotel restaurants are offering tables inches away from the chef. THE
PHOENICIAN The chef's table is equipped with video monitors so diners can follow every step of the sizzling action. THE INN AT
LITTLE WASHINGTON Guests in the kitchen of Chef Patrick O'Connell's Inn at Little Washington are greeted with Gregorian chants, a rose-water hand-washing ceremony and black truffles roasted in the private fireplace. FLAMING
APPLE SKILLET TART Ingredients:
In a small
sauté or crepe pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add _ cup crepe batter, forming a
circle in the center of the pan. Heat crepe batter for about 1 minute or until just set.
Remove pan from the heat. Place sliced apples in concentric circles around the batter,
using a wooden skewer to arrange. Return the tart to medium heat. Shake a generous
sprinkling of cinnamon & sugar mixture over tart and continue cooking until tart
slides easily in pan. Flip crepe. Add a generous pat of butter to the pan. Spread a thin
layer of crème around the edges of the crepe. Cook approximately 1 minute more, or until
edges appear a rich golden brown. Flip tart and continue cooking for about 20 seconds
longer, or until set. TIP: These tarts can be assembled well in advance and heated just before serving.
