Oli Marlow and Adam Catterall will welcome the team from respiración to Roganic Hong Kong on November 17 and 18, 2026. The two dinners follow a first collaboration in Kanazawa in April and continue an exchange between the modern British cooking of Roganic and a Japanese restaurant whose chefs trained in Spain.
At Roganic, which Simon Rogan opened in 2019, executive chef Oli Marlow and head chef Adam Catterall work with regional growers and suppliers, using preservation and fermentation alongside seasonal produce. In Kanazawa, respiración was founded by three childhood friends who returned to their hometown after developing their careers. Their cooking applies Spanish techniques to seafood, vegetables, game and fermented ingredients from Japan’s Hokuriku region.
The Hong Kong dinners will bring those approaches into an eleven-course menu combining dishes from each restaurant with preparations developed by both teams. Relationships with local producers provide a common starting point for the collaboration, while the return visit gives the chefs another opportunity to work together after their earlier meeting in Ishikawa Prefecture.
