The world’s and Hong Kong’s first immersive Transformers Ark-themed restaurant has just opened up in Causeway Bay. In partnership with Hasbro, the restaurant uses 3D technology in its spaceship design for a truly unique dining experience.
Telling the story of how the Autobots ended up in Hong Kong, the facade of the restaurant sees three-dimensional rear thrusters of The Ark spaceship in combination with a massive LED screen to bring the entrance to life. “While approaching Earth, their ship lost power due to an energy depletion and made an emergency landing in the bustling Causeway Bay district of Hong Kong, thus entering the world of humans,” reads the restaurant’s official statement.
