Hong Kong has long been the backdrop and birthplace of some of cinema’s most iconic stories and stars, from the kinetic action choreography that redefined Hollywood filmmaking to the moody romanticism of its arthouse auteurs. Its neon-lit streets, harbour skyline, and layered blend of East and West have made the city a filmmaking muse for generations.

Originating in Hong Kong, Mott 32 has carried that same spirit of storytelling worldwide, introducing global audiences to the depth and artistry of Chinese cuisine through its restaurants across the globe.
