Brown Happy Valley, Hong KongIn the colour spectrum, brown is hardly considered the most glamorous of the lot...

 

This, however, hasn't stopped architect Nunn Luan from opening a bar dedicated to the colour.

 

Stemming from an insider phrase with her friends, who would describe a night on the town drinking whiskey as "going brown", Luan opened Brown as a place where whiskey, coffee, cigars and chocolate could be celebrated.

 

The formula has proved so successful that, in addition to the original Happy Valley venue, Luan has also taken her unique concept to Robinson Road.

 

Intended as a "home away from home" Luan hopes Brown will be an alternative to the more hectic locales of Lan Kwai Fong or Wanchai.

 

On the bill is live jazz three times a week as well as Jack Daniels nights.
