Black Sheep Restaurants has been revitalising The Magistracy within Tai Kwun since 2022, creating a dynamic dining destination through a three-stage project. The first stage of this transformation is the British-inspired restaurant Magistracy Dining Room and Botanical Garden. Now in its second phase, the century-old proclaimed monument debuts the opulent Indian restaurant Prince and the Peacock. Helmed by chef Palash Mitra from New Punjab Club, the new restaurant presents modern interpretations of regional dishes inspired by the royal kitchens of the princely states of India.
