Founded by Artichoke in 2019, esca was created to showcase our deep love for vegetarian food, an often-overlooked cuisine in Hong Kong.

At esca, we believe that everyone can eat better without sacrificing taste. We focus on elevating the natural flavour and character of ingredients.

Over the years, we may have been known more for our variety of soups and salads but we also have a great love for pastries.

Our founder and chef, Wesley Wan, is constantly trying to find new creative ways to combine his passion for vegetarian food, his Hong Kong heritage and ways to keep Chinese traditions alive, which has led him to vegetarian seasonal products.

Our most popular has been our esca mooncakes for mid autumn festival, with a variation of flavors, including our classic salted egg parmesan custard lava mooncake. As well as our Chinese New Year products, which includes our mushroom turnip cake.

We take pride in making flavorful vegetarian items and can’t wait to show you more of what’s to come. Make sure to follow us on Instagram to keep updated with our latest products!

NB: Food is prepped in a shared kitchen, meat and nuts are present in the area.
