Gabriel Chung found his passion in cooking at a young age amid delicious home cooked meals by his mom. After he graduated in America, Gabriel journeyed to Paris to pursue his dream as a chef and graduated from Le Cordon Bleu. He has worked with top Michelin starred chefs like Pierre Gagnaire and Nicolas Boutin to name a few. After getting few stains in the top restaurants in Hong Kong, he went to Copenhagen to breakthrough his culinary boundaries.
In Copenhagen he worked for the Studio (1 starred) and the famous new nordic cuisine movement pioneer Kadeau (2 starred). In 2019 he went back to Hong Kong and worked in Tirpse (1 starred in Tokyo) as a sous chef. With all the experience above, his culinary style now lies between French, Japanese, and nordic cuisine.

Lobster with Strawberries in Bordelaise Sauce
On the outer sides of the dish, lobster claw and tail are pre-cooked and unshelled by Chef Gabriel himself. Upon presentation, both parts are then pan fried with herbs and brown butter until medium.
Placed in the center of the dish is fermented strawberries dipped in bordelaise sauce made with lobster shells, miso and red wine for an acidic umami flavor.
Aged Amadai in Green Yuzu Yogurt Sauce
The Amadai fish – also known as the red tilefish – is highly valued in Kyoto, and can be eaten scales and all. For its preparation, Chef Gabriel aged it for 4 days then it steamed with sake and kombu before serving.
Cohering with the light tone of the dish, the sauce is made with whey from ricotta, fresh green yuzu and yogurt. For an extra refreshing touch, Chef Gabriel garnished the fish with yuzu zest on top.
Australian Wagyu M7 Flank Steak
Chef Gabriel specifically picked Australia Wagyu M7 flank steak as the star of the menu, which exudes a rich meat aroma that lingers on the diner's palate.
Served on the side, morels are spring mushrooms prized by gourmet cooks, particularly in French cuisine. It is stuffed with chicken mousse and cooked with Vin Jaune for an extra sweet taste.
