With his Cantonese roots and background in classical French culinary training, Vicky Cheng has pioneered the art of Chinese X French cuisine. Dishes such as the Wagyu Beef Shortrib with shiitake and daikon is a stunning testament to his ability to seamlessly weave together multiple cultures on a plate. While meticulously applying French gastronomic techniques of great precision and finesse, he pays homage to his home town and heritage by using authentic and seasonal products particularly from Hong Kong and Asia. For him, the dream collaboration has always been with a Chinese-trained chef of Tam’s incredible calibre.
