T: Not only did our first Hong Kong shop in Causeway Bay become a success, but our second shop at The Mills also received an overwhelming response. Although matcha is often viewed as a centuries-old tradition, we appeal to the youth market by emphasizing its trendiness and health benefits it is not just a bitter beverage enjoyed by elderly people.
T: The colours, interior design and decorations at our Tsuen Wan shop resemble those at our Omotesando shop. Our employees were trained by the staff at our headquarters as well. Water temperature is the most crucial element in a good cup of matcha as bitterness comes from tannin. The higher the water temperature, the more tannin is released. Water that is hotter than 80°C, or even boiling water, will make matcha bitter; which is why our pots are alway s kept at around 80°C. To bring our customers the authentic taste of Japan, all whisks, scoops, pots and matcha powder containers at our shop were shipped directly to Hong Kong.

THE MATCHA TOKYO HK品牌經理專訪 Interview with the Brand Manager of THE MATCHA TOKYO HK
T: THE MATCHA TOKYO has its own tea gardens in Uji, Kyoto and Kagoshima. Planted in unpolluted soil and irrigated with water from natural springs, the tea trees are shielded from direct sunlight to ensure thinner and softer leaves. We use 100% organic Japanese matcha which has a full-bodied flavour. Among our four premium quality matcha blends, the TOKYO RICH blend is exclusively available in Hong Kong. It is perfect for Hongkongers who enjoy a stronger, more bitter flavour. On the contrary, the JAPAN PREMIUM blend has a umami aftertaste, which shows that high-quality matcha does not have to be bitter and thick.
T: Tsuen Wan is a mixing pot of old and new cultures. As our target customers are mostly trendy and health-conscious youths, it is the perfect location for our second shop. Apart from adding a dining area in the shop, we have brought a bigger selection of light meals that pairs well with the rich flavours of matcha, roasted tea, coffee and more. Our shop is a cozy haven for customers to take a break and experience the serenity of matcha under the artistic atmosphere of The Mills.
Q: Matcha has been around for a long time why does THE MATCHA TOKYO target the youth market?
Q: How did you preserve the authentic flavours of Japan?
Q: Other than its taste, what are some of the other qualities matcha bears?
Q: Why did you choose The Mills in Tsuen Wan as the location of your second outlet?
T: Like coffee, matcha represents a certain lifestyle. We want to create a relaxing environment for our customers as they enjoy their beverages. Matcha is a superfood that offers numerous health benefits. Filled with antioxidants, matcha is a health product that enhances metabolism and calms our minds.

Hold the edge of the bowl with one hand, and use the other hand to whisk in a zig-zag motion without touching the bottom of the bowl. Gradually speed up within 20 seconds until the matcha becomes foamy on top. 4) Once a thick froth develops, gently move the whisk near the surface of the matcha in a swirling motion for a perfect froth. 報名 Registration: 致電2699 2038或親臨南豐紗廠分店 Call 2699 2038 or visit The Mills shop 31 42 THE MATCHA TOKYO 06

串燒 日本人使用筷子有不少禁忌，不可隨便亂用，例如不 可用筷子直插食物來吃、不可將筷子插在飯碗上、不 可用筷子移動餐具、不可用同一隻手同時拿著筷子及 其他餐具。 In Japanese culture, there are many rules and taboos surrounding the use of chopsticks. For instance, spearing your food with chopsticks or standing your chopsticks up vertically in your bowl is highly frowned upon. Refrain from also using your chopsticks to move utensils around the table or holding chopsticks and other utensils with one hand. 吃日式串燒時，切勿用手拿著整串串燒來咬，正確食法 是，每次用筷子取下一塊，然後才夾到自己的碟子上。 When eating Japanese skewers, do not bite directly into them. Instead, remove the pieces from the skewers with your chopsticks, place them on your dish and enjoy them one at a time. 吃壽司時需要一口放進口中，切勿咬斷分成兩口。在日 本人的眼中，任何咬開的痕跡都被認為不乾淨，同時會 破壞魚肉的原有組織，口水亦會影響原有鮮度，所以記

Devoid of travelling, different aromas may bring up memories of meals you have had on your vacations in previous years. Why not beat the travel bug with memories of dining experiences until your next adventure in Japan? Let’ s catch up on Japanese food culture and dining etiquette to further immerse yourself on your next trip. are aware that wasabi is not supposed to be mixed with soy This practice is discouraged by Japanese sushi chefs to avoid tainting the food. The proper way to enjoy sashimi is to dab a bit of wasabi onto the sashimi before dipping it into soy sauce. It is also noteworthy that perilla leaves and shredded daikon are not just garnish; they are meant to be wrapped around sashimi to eliminate fish odour.

SakeRamen Soup 酒拉麵 湯品 你有否發現，享用味噌湯時沒有湯匙？日本人只會直 接雙手托著飲用，甚或用筷子夾起材料吃。至於茶碗 蒸原本屬於湯品，正式吃法是用筷子將碗內的材料充 分攪拌後，當成湯品一同飲用，或者可用放在旁邊的 小湯匙攪拌後享用。 Have you noticed that miso soup is often served without spoons? Japanese people tend to drink miso soup holding the bowl with both hands, and fish out the solid pieces with chopsticks. Chawanmushi is also viewed as a soup, so the proper way to consume it is to mix the ingredients with chopsticks or a small spoon before drinking it like soup. 吃拉麵時可以大方發出啜麵條的聲音，這是日本文化 中對師傅的敬意。不過要留意的是，夾麵條要注意一 口的份量，必須把麵條完整啜進口中，如果最後麵條 被咬斷跌回碗裡，卻是不尊重的意思，也可能濺起湯 汁造成不必要的尷尬。 In
Japanesemannerstable 日本人愛喝各式酒類，要留意日本人覺得自斟自飲是無 禮的事，應先為別人斟酒，之後人家亦會替自己斟酒。 記得斟酒時瓶身標籤在上方，右手從上方握住瓶身，左 手輕扶下方。而人家為自己倒酒時，不要把酒杯放在桌 面，反應該雙手奉上酒杯，不需要過度傾斜杯身，待對 方把酒倒完為止。
Japanese people are big fans of alcohol. It is considered rude to pour a drink for yourself. Instead, pour drinks for others and they will reciprocate. When pouring a drink, remember to keep the label on the bottle pointing upwards. Hold the bottom of the bottle from above with your right hand, and gently support the top of the bottle with your left hand. When someone is pouring you a drink, do not leave your glass on the table. Show courtesy by holding the glass upright with both your hands until the person is finished. Japanese culture, slurping ramen noodles is a sign of respect for the ramen chefs. However, remember not to take more than you can chew in one bite as biting off noodles is not only a sign of disrespect, but may cause soup to spill, resulting in unnecessary embarrassment.

unique is not an easy feat, especially when consumers have been more cautious with spending because of the pandemic. Realising consumers may not see home decor as a necessity, Joey turned half of her store into a restaurant, offering European and Asian gourmet dishes for customers to grab a bite before taking a look around the shop. The uniek was fortunate enough to have survived the challenging times. Although the restaurant is now the cash cow of her business, Joey insists on keeping her concept store.

Tired of a homogenized world? Come visit The uniek and decorate your home with a dash of European finesse. 閒逛歐陸設計小店：體驗獨一無二的選物樂趣 Stroll around the European concept store and indulge in the‘one-of-a-kind’shopping experience 本是網店的 The uniek 專門搜羅歐洲設計師自家品牌，一 直希望開設實體店，讓客人親身接觸實物，直至今年初終 於登陸南豐紗廠。主理人 Joey 說：「 uniek 是荷蘭語，有 特別、唯一的意思，我希望我們的產品都是這樣獨特，而 且能夠進駐南豐紗廠，感覺也很獨特。」她有感香港不少 商場都是倒模式設計，來來去去都是那些店舖，所以特別 欣賞南豐紗廠文創地標的定位，認為與 The uniek 的理念 相近，所以雙方一拍即合。 獨特的代價是生存不易，尤其在疫情下大家消費較為審 慎。 Joey 明白消費者容易覺得家居選物並非必需品，因 此積極開拓餐飲生意，提供歐陸及亞洲美食，讓客人來到 The uniek 先填飽肚子，之後順道參觀一下選物店，最終 成功捱過最艱難的日子。雖然餐飲業務比零售業務收入更 高，但她依然沒有放棄開選物店的初衷。 The uniek 堅持提供獨特的歐洲設計家品給客人，當中有 幾個買貨準則。「第一是獨特性強，設計感強；第二是適 合香港家居，始終不能太大件；第三是性價比高，第四 是常用程度高。」她透露店內陳列了逾 20 個來自歐洲的 品牌，八成產品都是獨家發售，很多貨品數量都只有兩、 三件，相當稀有，因此客人來到 The uniek 有點尋寶的感 覺，就像去旅行到小店一樣，能否遇上心水貨品，都是緣 份使然。
Started as an online shop featuring designer brands from Europe, The uniek had always wanted a physical outlet for customers to touch and feel the products in person. This goal was finally realised in the beginning of this year when the brand’ s first physical store opened at The Mills. Joey says,“ ‘Uniek’is a Dutch word that means‘one-of-a-kind’– a quality I want for our products. Being a part of The Mills is also very unique.”Given that most shopping malls in Hong Kong have similar designs and consist of the same shop mix, she admires The Mills as a cultural landmark and appreciates that The uniek and The Mills share similar visions, thus resulting in such a great
The uniek is devoted to bringing one-of-a-kind designs from Europe to its customers with a few criteria in mind. First, the products must be unique and have a strong design. Second, the size should not be too big – they have to fit in a typical flat in Hong Kong. The third and fourth criteria are cost-effectiveness and practicality. Joey reveals that The uniek is now carrying 20 European brands and 80% of the products are exclusively sold at The uniek. There are usually only two or three pieces of the same product available, resembling that of the little stores in Europe where hidden treasures await, and bringing home an item that is close to one

Q: How was“The Store In Time”created?
12
While we are still unable to freely explore the globe, let’ s draw our attention to the local life stories that we have neglected and reconsider our relationship with the world. The Mills launched “ The Store In Time ” in June to collaborate with different artists under the theme of “ In Time Of Food ” and show us the beautiful corners of the world from the dining table. To travel the world again, we must first cherish it.
T: In Time Of is a community project by Nan Fung Group with sustainable development, community design, and art and culture as the main focus; “The Store In time”is one of its many programmes. This year, we launched a daily life story concept store at The Mills to touch the hearts of people from all walks of life through themed events such as“Ritual of Dining” , featuring local ceramist Yiu Chun Wa (Yiu Wa) and bamboo art group TAKENEKO and their art pieces made of local soil and bamboo.
Q：「世界之約」的理念是甚麼？ T ：「約」是約定的意思，亦是我們與大自然的共識，世界不斷進 步，我們卻往往忽視與大自然的連結。「世界之約」與不同單位 共同探索城市，啟發市民回饋大自然，實踐與世界共生的理念。之 前我們舉辦過《幸會木棉》、《與種籽有約》等活動，希望藉著時 間、土地、溫度、風雨、濕度等途徑，連結不同人與世界的關係， 推動可持續發展。
Q: What is the vision of“In Time Of”?
Q：「織刻生活店」是如何誕生？ T ：商場的概念來自廣場，應該讓人有討論及思考的空間，但香港 店舖只是食玩買。南豐紗廠在荃灣植根多年，以前這裡是工廠，現 在成為文化地標，這個地方本身有很多故事，於是我們用上選物店 的概念，名為「織刻生活店」，除了與紡織有關外，還希望將不同
T: We live in an ever-changing world, and the continuous advancements of humanity are leading to our growing disconnection from nature. By exploring the city with different organisations, the In Time Of programme inspires people to give back to nature and craft a more sustainable future. Events like“Nice to meet you, Kapok!”and“A Date with Seeds”were organised to advocate sustainable living and bridge humanity and the world through time, soil, temperature, wind, rain, and humidity.
Q: Could you illustrate the relationship between“In Time Of” , “The Store In Time”and“Ritual of Dining”?

T: Rather than providing space for discussion and reflection, shopping malls in Hong Kong are purely for recreational purposes. The buildings making up The Mills have been in Tsuen Wan for decades, from a textile mill to now a revitalised cultural landmark filled with community stories. We decided to open a concept store named The Store In Time to not only promote the textile culture but also bring people, especially our visitors, together through shared stories. It is our vision to spark conversations by collaborating with different artists, as well as present more relatable community stories in Hong Kong through workshops and other events.

The pandemic has forced many people to stay in Hong Kong, including artists. The time has allowed them to explore the possibilities of this city. One such example is art group TAKENEKO, who used Hong Kong bamboo near their homes in Mui Wo for bamboo weaving. As they dived into the process of bamboo weaving, they discovered that Hong Kong bamboo is more fragile than other bamboo varieties. With simple but practical designs, TAKENEKO were able to emphasise the unique characteristics of this local material. By extending the typically short lives of Hong Kong bamboo by transforming them into bamboo products, TAKENEKO aims to tell the life stories of islanders in Mui Wo and local bamboo.

Bamboo of happiness – TAKENEKO
認識本土 - 垚樺 常說「本土」，但我們真的有了解過本地的泥土嗎？透過藝術家的作品，讓我 們重新反思泥土的重要性。今次「食器之約」邀得本地陶藝家姚俊樺（垚樺） 收集本地田野、岸邊和塘邊的泥土，加入陶泥中製作成各種器物。近海、近山 的泥土品質不盡相同，做出來的食器的顏色、質感也截然不同。來到「織刻生 活店」就可看到垚樺將大自然的泥土轉化為餐桌的器皿，藉此拉近我們與土地 的距離。 知竹常樂 - 竹貓 疫情關係，不少藝術家困於香港，卻多了時間思考這個地方還有甚麼可能性。 竹編團體竹貓就是一例，這幾年去不了其他他方，就想到在居住地梅窩附近覓 竹，嘗試用香港竹來做竹編。與竹接觸後，他們慢慢了解到香港竹的本質原來 比較脆弱，因此以其編織出簡單實用的設計，呈現在地材質的獨特性，將香港 竹的生命延續在竹器上，訴說島民與本地竹的生活故事。 大帽山泥陶瓷碟 Tai Mo Shan Clay Ceramic Plate $880 西灣村泥陶瓷碗 Sai Wan Village Clay Ceramic Bowl $680 大環泥陶瓷碟 Tai Wan Clay Ceramic Plate $880 西貢泥牛屎灰釉陶瓷碗 Sai Kung Clay Cow Feces Glazed Ceramic Bowl $680 梅窩六角編食物 Mui Wo Hexagonal Food Tea Set Basket $550
Exploring local cultures – Yiu Wa
While we often stress the importance of local consciousness, have we paid enough attention to local soil? Through the lens of an artist, we can reflect on the importance of the soil.“Ritual of Dining”has invited local ceramist Yiu Chun Wa (Yiu Wa) to collect soil from local fields, shores and pond edges, then mix it with clay to create various utensils. The quality of the soil close to the sea is different from that near the mountains; hence, they create utensils of various colours and textures. Visit“The Store In Time”to see Yiu Wa transform soil into everyday utensils, bringing us closer to the land.

A study shows that 81% of plastics are emitted from Asia, with a portion of these plastics imported from around the world. Some predict there will be more marine waste than fish by 2050. 冷知識3：原來我們身體中都找到微塑膠? 食得是福，但食到塑膠絕對是禍！原來我們每日都會吃下和吸入微塑膠， 近日有研究首次在80%的人體血液中檢測到微塑膠，這與激素相關的癌症、 不孕症等慢性疾病息息相關。 Did you know #3: Microplastics in our bodies? Eating is a blessing, but eating plastic is definitely a curse! As it turns out, we are eating, drinking and breathing microplastics every day. A recent study suggest tiny particles of microplastic have been found in 80% of human blood which could lead to chronic diseases such as hormone-related cancer, infertility etc. 冷知識2：香港每日有幾多廢膠？ 每日香港有2,312噸塑膠廢棄物被棄置垃圾堆填區， 重量相等於87輛雙層巴士。 Did you know #2: How much plastic waste is discarded in Hong Kong every day?

When we eat fish, we are also consuming tiny pieces of plastic. By eating fish regularly, humans ingest about 5g of plastic every week, which is equivalent to the weight of a credit card. FABRICA X > 塑膠垃圾如何影響我們的日常生活？ How does plastic waste affect our daily lives? 每日人類製造垃圾何其多，可能你以為事不關己，甚或覺得海洋垃圾遠離日常 生活，其實無時無刻與你我有關，甚至在不知不覺間進入我們的身體。 An enormous amount of waste is being produced every day. While many people may think that ocean plastic waste has nothing to do with us, it is much closer to home than we can imagine and it may even enter our bodies without us realising. 20
