A Hong Kong weekend dining guide published June 24 has previewed a slate of restaurant openings scheduled for June 26-28. The guide also highlighted a special eight-hands, nine-course collaboration at Shanghai Plus running June 25-27, priced at HK$2,388. Separately, betting market Polymarket now shows the odds of a Taiwan invasion at 0.25%, down from previous levels.
What's on the menu in Hong Kong
The dining guide, aimed at weekend foodies, gives an early look at new restaurants set to open over the June 26-28 period. It doesn't name the specific venues or cuisines, but it's a curated preview for those planning their weekend. The standout event is the collaboration at Shanghai Plus — eight chefs teaming up for nine courses. That runs from June 25 through June 27 and costs HK$2,388 per person. For a city that loves its chef collaborations, this one's a short window.
Polymarket odds shift
On Polymarket, a prediction market platform, the probability of a Taiwan invasion has dropped to 0.25%. That's a low figure — just a quarter of a percentage point — and marks a change from earlier odds, though the prior level isn't given in the facts. The odds represent what bettors are pricing in. Polymarket has become a go-to for tracking geopolitical risk, though its numbers can swing quickly on news or sentiment.
Neither the dining guide nor the Polymarket data come with attribution or commentary. The guide is simply a preview; the odds are a snapshot. For Hong Kong diners, the collaboration dinner ends June 27. For Polymarket watchers, the Taiwan invasion odds are current as of the same period. Whether they'll move again is an open question — one that only new information will answer.
