2021
Very different from the traditional architecture & vibe that we have done previously with “Once Upon a Reiwa Autumn”, The Time Sommelier has designed the concept of JIDAI YOKOCHO 時代横丁, namely a Yokocho 横丁 (shopping street) inside Times Square (時代廣場) as an installation that will remind one of the favorite travel destinations of Hong Kongers of all time – Japan. It consists of the following elements in the compound: 1) A Photo-taking spot of YOKOCHO setup ; 2) An Exhibition of Japanese Craftmanship ; 3) Retail Area Bottle Shop as well as related products ; 4) Tasting Area of Japanese Beverage (Sake, Wine, Shochu, Beer).
