Is it bad that we’re starting to worry about what to do over Easter already?! Thankfully, there’s plenty going on in HK until then… and here are this week’s hottest picks, from yummy burgers to yummy boys!

Make-up shopping spree
We don’t need much convincing to buy make-up – but discounts of up to 60% are surely too good to resist! Couleur Caramel, a fab French cosmetics brand whose products are all certified organic and made from natural ingredients, is having an exclusive private sale at Emmanuel Fsalon… and you’re all invited! So now’s the time to stock up on some gorgeous organic make-up at fantastic prices – what are you waiting for girls?

Get arty
HK’s biggest charity art event is back for another year – yes, it’s the return of Hong Kong Artwalk, your chance to binge on all varieties of visual arts in a whistlestop one-night tour of some of the 852’s best galleries.

Youtube sensation and maker of infamous Jellybean music video, Kina Grannis, will be serenading Hong Kong with one of her trademark intimate live shows on 11 March.

Good Burger
What do we love more than a good burger? Five good burgers! Café Causette at the Mandarin Oriental is dishing up a platter of five very special Pulled Mini Burgers – with fillings including slow-cooked short rib beef, pork kim chi and oysters, and confit corn-fed chicken. The offer is for just two weeks at the irresistible super-lucky price of $88 so go down and grab your fill ASAP! You can then vote for your favourite burger on the Mandarin Oriental’s Facebook Page and the two most popular will be added to the permanent menu… so you’ve only yourself to blame if it doesn’t make the cut.
