If you are not familiar with Chez Trente and its legendary status among the live music scene in Hong Kong, you are missing out.Chez Trente is a quaint, cool live music venue located in the middle of Peel Street, HK's premier bar street over the last few years, but there are no signs to guide you to Chez Trente, and if you don't know where it is, it's really hard to find.
