Private Chef In Lyon
Get to know me better
Passionate in cultural exchange through cooking. I look for soul in a plate.
I am a professional chef from Hong Kong. I opened a fine dining restaurant as Chef de cuisine in Kennedy Town, Hong Kong in 2021 at age 23. After a big success, I decided to close down the restaurant and not to settle for a restaurant in such young age, instead I decided to come to France to perfect my craft and invest on my future!
Following spending time in the celebrated 3 Michelin star Yannick Alléno restaurant in Paris. I launched a pop-up restaurant in Paris named L'ONYX to reflect on my inspiration and adventure in France the past year. You can find information on instagram@restaurant_onyx .Now, I am in school in the Institut Paul Bocuse as a culinary arts student, learning again from the basic.
I am specialised in merging French and Chinese cuisine, often time I present classic French cuisine with a touch of my root to give a refreshing approach. If you are interested in trying a French x Chinese cuisine, I will am more than happy to cook and share my food with you.
More about me
For me, cooking is...
an exchange of story and culture. I believe there is so much more than feeding people as a chef.
I learned to cook at...
many places, from many people, in many occasions. But the best lesson I learnt is the mindset to be a storyteller, not the recipe or technique.
A cooking secret...
is to always give it all and put your heart into every small details. There is no better seasoning to food than a sincere heart of a Chef.
