When we said it was a good week to be a Transformers fan, we weren’t kidding. Not only have we had a bombardment of news regarding the 2024 animated film, we also have a trailer for Rise of the Beasts coming this Thursday. On top of that, Hong Kong have just opened up a restaurant inspired by the world of Transformers. Aptly named after the Autobots’ ship The Ark, this thrilling and immersive restaurant takes fandom to a whole new level.
The exterior of the restaurant resembles the back of The Ark, so if you are exploring the streets of Hong Kong you definitely won’t miss it. Stepping inside the restaurant is an entirely different experience altogether. Filled with decor reminiscent of Cybertron, you’ll feel as though you’ve been transported into the heart of Iacon city.
The menu consists of Autobot shaped burger buns, Surge Fries, and Energon Ice Cream. While you wait patiently for your meal, you can head over to the huge gift shop which includes a tonne of Transformers merchandise and collectibles. Count us in immediately.
