Key Takeaways

  • Taste by Priceless is now open at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG), marking Mastercard's first dining club in the Asia-Pacific region.
  • The dining club features chef-led tasting menus, Ă  la carte dining, signature desserts, and cocktails in Terminal 1 near Gate 40.
  • World Legend Mastercard cardholders receive complimentary access for themselves and up to three guests, while World Elite and World Mastercard cardholders can enter at a preferential rate.

Taste by Pricess has opened a brand new premium airport dining experience at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) in Terminal 1, near Gate 40, and is currently open from 06:00 to midnight. This is the second Taste location to open, following their inaugural spot at SĂŁo Paulo Airport (GRU), which opened December 11, 2025.

Amenities

The “lounge” is focused around upscale dining and comfort, with menus created by acclaimed chefs with inspiration drawn from Asian and Western flavors. Beyond dining, the venue has been designed as an immersive space with warm lighting, that blends Mastercard’s brand heritage with local cultural influences, including commissioned art and paintings located throughout the venue.

Trips today extend beyond the destination itself, said Joyce Bo, executive vice president, Core Payments, Asia Pacific, Mastercard. As airports increasingly become part of the journey rather than simply a transit point, more travelers are looking for experiences that are worth arriving early for. Taste by Priceless reflects how travel is evolving, turning even a short stopover into a meaningful culinary moment while enabling financial institutions to elevate their premium customer proposition.

Access

Complimentary access is available to World Legend Mastercard cardholders and up to three accompanying guests. Eligible World Elite and World Mastercard cardholders may visit the venue at a preferential rate, ranging from $70 to $85 per person. Customers must present their physical Mastercard card (digital cards are not currently accepted) and a boarding pass to enter. Children under 2 years old are included free of charge. Access is limited to three hours prior to departure.

Closing Thoughts

This food looks truly exceptional. This new Taste by Priceless location takes over part of the space where the old Chase Sapphire Lounge by The Club was located, which closed in January 2026. There are also plans to open the third location sometime in 2026 in Mexico City (MEX). If you have a World Legend Mastercard and are at one of these locations, I would put this as a top choice for visiting. The lounge really reminds me of Capital One Landing at LGA with a strong focus on dining.
