COVER STORY I HONG KONG

Sky High Maestro Peter Find, Executive Chef of The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong, discusses orchestrating one of the city’s most refined collections of restaurants By Rebecca Lo Photography by Koon Ming Tang

FT(Foodtalk): What led to your career as a chef? PF(Peter Find): I come from Bersrod, a village with less than 800 people about 65km north of Frankfurt/Main, Germany. We had a garden and I learned to respect seasonal produce. My uncle was a butcher in a nearby village, and I grew up helping in the shop or at my family’s farm. Then, when I was 14, I apprenticed as a butcher; we would cater small parties of 30 people by providing charcuterie. After, in 1983, I apprenticed under an Alsace chef who taught me classic French techniques. FT: Who were your mentors? PF: I admired the late Paul Bocuse - he was a huge figure for every classically trained chef, though I never worked with him. The others are Achim Krutsch, Alfred Friedrich and Anton Mosimann. They

PF(Peter Find): 我來自德國的Bersrod, 這個村莊的人口不足800人,位於德國法蘭 克福以北約65公里。我們家有一個花園, 在那裏我了解到時令農產品的美妙之處。 我的叔叔是附近一個村莊的屠夫,我長大 後就在他的店幫忙打點或者在家裏的農場 幹活。14歲時,我當上屠夫學徒。我們會 為小型派對提供熟食。到了1983年,我拜 了一位來自法國東北面阿爾薩斯的廚師學 廚,學習了不少經典的法式烹調技巧。

Achim taught me to experiment. Alfred explained why certain flavours worked well together and how to get the best out of each ingredient. Anton was a marketing king who taught the importance of customer interaction. FT: What led to your current position as Executive Chef at The Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong? PF: When I was working at The Repulse Bay in Hong Kong in 1999, I met a Ritz-Carlton chef who talked about the brand’s huge potential. Intrigued, I went on to join the group as Executive Sous Chef at The Ritz-Carlton, Singapore. A chance to join the opening team at The Ritz-Carlton, Bahrain then came up. At the time I didn’t even know where Bahrain was! But I knew that having Middle East experience

FT: 你曾經師承哪幾位名廚? PF: 我很欣賞已故的 Paul Bocuse。對所有受過傳統烹調訓練的 廚師來說,他都是一位非常了不起的人物,可惜我從未與他合作 過。其他的則包括德國廚師Achim Krutsch和Alfred Friedrich 以及瑞士廚師Anton Mosimann。他們有著不同的性格,而烹飪 風格也非常不一樣,但他們的共通點是對烹飪充滿熱情。Achim 教我如何體會烹飪的樂趣。Alfred則會向我解釋為何若干口味配 合在一起,能夠產生非常奇妙的效果,以及如何帶出每種食材的 精粹。Anton是一位營銷大師,他教曉我與顧客互動的重要之 道。 FT: 你為甚麼會當上目前香港麗思卡爾頓酒店的行政總廚? PF: 1999年在香港淺水灣酒店工作時,我遇到一位麗思卡爾頓酒 店的大廚,他侃侃而談其品牌的龐大潛力。有趣的是,我其後就 加入了成為新加坡麗思卡爾頓酒店的行政副總廚。不久,我更有 機會成為巴林麗思卡爾頓酒店的開幕團隊成員。當時我甚至不知 道巴林在哪裏!但我知道具備中東經驗將會是一種優勢,所以最 終在那裏待上了四年。 我一直對麗思卡爾頓的皇冠標誌以及其背後的歷史非常著迷。酒

was an advantage, and ended up spending four years there. I have always been fascinated by The Ritz-Carlton’s crown logo and the history behind it. Our motto is “Ladies and gentlemen serving ladies and gentlemen”. We empower our staff with the resources to ensure guests are taken care of and are happy. We do this consistently and genuinely, which suits my character, as being from a small village, I like helping people. FT: How do you maintain high standard with such a wide array of outlets? PF: Hire the right people. We are lucky as we still have a large number of the hotel’s opening team. Our staff is stable, which helps keep everything consistent, from service to cuisine. It is also important to have a consistent supply of products. Getting one or two Michelin stars takes a lot of hard work. At the same time, we are open-minded. We consistently offer dishes that are relevant to the market, visually appealing and made with wonderful produce. Customers like to interact with chefs, and I personally engage with them to get feedback. As a result, we have a good network of regulars. FT: How do you differentiate yourself in Hong Kong’s competitive market? PF: The hotel’s location and elevation are big attractions. On a clear day customers can enjoy one of Hong Kong’s most stunning views. Our awards attract people, who also appreciate our personalised service and unique products. And with seven outlets here, we have something for everyone.

稱心滿意。我們致力本著真誠貫徹此宗旨,而這非常符合我的性 格,我來自一個小村莊並在小村莊成長,向來非常樂於助人。 FT: 你們設有這麼多不同的餐廳,如何能確保一貫的高水準? PF: 聘用合適的人才非常重要。我們很幸運,因為酒店開幕團隊 中的許多成員現時仍然與我們並肩同行。我們的員工流失率低, 從服務到食物都能保持一致的高水準。此外,確保優質食材供 應穩定亦重要攸關。榮獲米芝蓮一星或兩星畢竟需要付出很大努 力。同時,我們也有不少新穎的構想。我們不斷提供迎合市場所 需的菜式,菜式看上去非常吸引,而且以優質食材入饌。客戶喜 歡與廚師互動。我也會親自與他們接觸,聽取寶貴的意見。因 此,我們吸引許多常客光顧。 FT: 你如何能夠在香港這個競爭激烈的市場中脫穎而出? PF: 我們酒店的位置優越,而且居高臨下,客人可在天朗氣清的 日子一覽香港最壯麗的景觀。此外,我們奪得不少獎項,深受客


“When a customer tells me a dish is good, that makes me happy” 「當食客告訴我一道菜真的很好吃時,才是我感到最滿足的時刻」 FT: What does the chef’s table experience bring to your guests? PF: Providing unique experiences is part of our passion. Since 2011 we have offered my version of a chef’s table, where every menu is personalised. Each features seasonal items that may not be the most expensive, but are executed with great finesse. I often talk to my guests to find out what they like before coming up with the menu. It’s a memorable experience for a group of friends and family to have me cook something special right in front of them. FT: What were some of your biggest professional challenges and rewards? PF: Preparing for the first Arab Summit with 23 different nations when I was in Bahrain - it was a massive event. The first Formula One in Bahrain; I learned a lot, since that took a lot of planning. Winning Best Global Chef for Ritz-Carlton hotels worldwide in 2013; this award was based on employee and customer feedback, implying that the recipient is a good role model for the brand. Being recognised as Chef Hotelier of the Year in Shanghai at the first Hotelier Awards Greater China in 2014. And, of course, opening the highest hotel in the world - my biggest achievement. In the end, though, when a customer tells me a dish is good, that makes me happy.

人歡迎,而客人也非常欣賞我們度身訂造的服務和一系列獨特的 菜式。我們設有七間餐廳,能夠切合不同的口味和需要。 FT:「廚師之桌」能為你的客人帶來什麼體驗? PF: 提供獨特的進餐體驗是展現我們對美食熱情的其中一環。自 2011年以來,我們已因應不同食客的口味而設計「廚師之桌」, 每份菜單都是度身訂造。每道菜式都會選用時令食材,材料未 必是最昂貴,但卻是非常精緻。在點菜之前,我通常會與食客談 談,了解他們的喜好。一群朋友和家人聚首一堂,而我則在他們 面前炮製美食,這實在是非常難忘的經驗。 FT: 在你的事業生涯中,最令你引以為傲的獎項是甚麼?所遇到 最大的挑戰又是甚麼? PF: 當我在巴林工作時,23個不同國家參與了阿拉伯的首次首腦 會議,我需要為出席人士準備美食,而這實在是艱鉅的任務。此 外,在巴林的首次一級方程式賽車中,我獲益良多,畢竟當中涉 及很多的規劃工作。在2013年,我贏得了麗思卡爾頓酒店全球最 佳廚師獎;這個獎項的結果反映了員工和客戶的意見,意味著得 獎者是品牌的良好楷模。在2014年第一屆大中華地區酒店業大獎 頒獎典禮上,我有幸獲選為上海年度酒店廚師。當然,能夠見證 香港麗思卡爾頓這間全球最高酒店的開幕,我亦感到無比自豪。 不過,說到底,當食客告訴我一道菜真的很好吃時,才是我感到 最滿足的時刻。

Korean BBQ: Master Your Grill in Seven Sauces By Bill Kim and Chandra Ram, Ten Speed

There’s not much the Koreans don’t know about barbeque and grilling, and this new guide allows even the uninitiated to become experts

C

hef Bill Kim, who was born in Korea but raised in Chicago, was clearly aware that he needed to add an element of fusion to make this 240-page cookbook accessible to those more familiar with the western barbeque model.

《韓式燒烤:七種醬料烤出好滋味》 作者:Bill Kim 及 Chandra Ram 出版社:Ten Speed

韓國人對燒烤堪稱無所不知,而有了這本 全新指南,現在所有門外漢都能夠成為燒 烤專家 名廚Bill Kim生於韓國,但在芝加哥長大。他清楚瞭 解到需要融合不同元素,才能使慣於西方燒烤模式的

He has subsequently produced a straightforward explanation of some of Korea’s most amazing sauces, rubs and infusions that enable even the most basic of grillers to add delicious new flavours. Kim, of Chicago’s award-winning bellyQ restaurants, is a lover of both the traditional barbeque of his Korean roots as well as the classic American family cookouts he later grew up with. The subsequent 80 mash-up recipes in Korean BBQ: Master Your Grill, not due to hit bookshops until April, are designed for home cooks to both learn the basics of the Korean grill and then customise them as they will. First are the seven master sauces (and three spice rubs), including Korican sauce (a combination of Puerto Rican and Korean flavours), curry salt and Korean pesto, which are super quick to prepare. These are followed by mouthwatering recipes including Sticky Chicken Crumsticks, Hoisin Baked Beans, Yuzu Edamame, Kimchi Potato Salad, Seoul to Buffalo Shrimp, BBQ Spiced Chicken Thighs and Honey Soy Flank Steak. Readers will also find a fun collection of snacks, drinks, sides and desserts. Not only full of brilliant, accessible recipes, this inspirational new title also tells the story of how a classically trained chef was able to blend traditional Korean techniques with a modern approach to contemporary barbeque cooking.

FT(Foodtalk): While growing up was food an important part of your life? GM(Gregoire Michaud): I grew up in a rural area where my family made most of our food – bread of course, but many other things. I loved eating, but even from an early age I wanted to learn how to cook, so I could be self-reliant. Baking I found particularly satisfying – from simple dough


CHEF’S TALK I HONG KONG

烘焙大師 Gregoire Michaud自少就註定以麵粉為業。他曾 於酒店業工作多年,並在5年前開設自家的烘焙工 場,為同行供應相關產品,業務蒸蒸日上。最近, 他的零售麵包店亦告開業 FT(Foodtalk): 在你的成長過程中,食物是重要的一環嗎? GM(Gregoire Michaud): 我在農村長大,大部分食物都是家 人自己製作的,麵包也不例外,當然亦有許多其他東西。我很 喜歡吃,從小就想學烹飪,所以我憑自己一雙手就可創造美 食。烘焙真的很有趣,一個簡單的麵團就能造出外形非常吸引 的麵包!這是一個十分神奇的過程,至今我仍然有這種感覺。 emerges beautiful bread! It was a magical process, and I still feel that way. FT: Does the area where you were born and brought up in Switzerland, Valais, have a distinctive culinary culture? Did it help forge the baker you would become GM: Yes, it’s at the intersection of Italy, France and Switzerland and there’s a fascinating mix of culinary cultures there. But although it was certainly inspiring, I was shaped more by my travels than my roots.

foodtalk ISSUE 45

FT: 您在瑞士瓦萊州出生並長大,該地區是否擁有獨特的烹飪 文化? 這些文化對你後來成為一名烘焙師有幫助嗎? GM: 有的,瓦萊州位於意大利、法國和瑞士的交界,當地匯聚 了各種不同的美食文化。雖然這些文化對我有一定薰陶,但周 遊列國對我的影響似乎大一點。 FT: 你曾於瑞士著名的Richemont Baking Institute學習烘 焙。可否與我們分享一下有關經驗? GM: 當年,一星期內我要在麵包店實習四天,到學校上課一 天。對於一個15歲的少年來說,這是非常刻苦的事情。「學不 成就要回家」。我仍然弄不清自己是如何熬過那段日子,甚至 能夠以全級第一名畢業!我想我生下來就是做烘焙的材料。

CHEF’S TALK I HONG KONG

FT: You trained at the renowned Swiss Richemont Baking Institute – how was that experience? GM: I had to spend four days working at the bakery and one day at school. It was very tough for a 15-year-old, either “learn or leave”. I still don’t quite know how I got through it, and still managed to graduate top of my class! I guess I was just born to do this. FT: You were already an established baker when you decided to study for a hotel management diploma at Lausanne Hotel School. What drove this decision? GM: I wanted to learn more about the business side of the industry. I then worked for a year as an F&B manager at Four Seasons Hotel Dublin to turn theory into practice. It was useful for my later ventures. FT: You had a successful career with Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts as an executive pastry chef. What attracted you to the brand? GM: I have always liked Four Seasons’ attitude towards people, both employees and guests – it is one of the reasons for their success. Essentially they are a group of good people working hard together. I was with Four Seasons in Hong Kong for 11 years – three at The Regent, which was managed by Four Seasons, and eight years at Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong itself.

FT: 當你決定到瑞士洛桑酒店管理學院 (Lausanne Hotel School)修讀酒店管理文憑 時,你已經是一個技巧相當成熟的烘焙師。是 甚麼驅使你作出這個決定的? GM: 我想了解更多關於烘焙行業的商業運作。 其後,我在愛爾蘭都柏林四季酒店的餐飲部當 了一年經理,將所學理論轉化為實踐。這些東 西對我後來營運餐廳和店舖都很有用。 FT: 你曾在四季酒店及度假村擔任糕點部行政 總廚,並發展了一番事業。「四季」這個品牌 有甚麼吸引到你? GM: 四季對員工和客人的態度,我一直甚有好 感,並且認為這是他們賴以成功的因素之一。 他們絕對是勤奮工作的優秀人才。我在香港的 四季酒店集團工作了11年,其中3年是在四季管 理的麗晶酒店,而8年則在香港四季酒店。

“Baking I found particularly satisfying - from simple dough emerges beautiful bread! It was a magical process, and I still feel that way” 「烘焙真的很有趣,一個簡單的麵團就 能造出外形非常吸引的麵 ! 這是一個十分神奇的過程,至今 我仍然有這種感覺」

FT: This is your second stint in Hong Kong. What drew you here again? GM: My first was as a pastry chef at the former Regent Hong Kong. The second time I was invited to be part of the new Four Seasons Hong Kong opening team. When first on board I had to wear a helmet, as construction was still ongoing! It was challenging, but we succeeded in establishing very high standards throughout the operation. FT: You opened your bakery, Bread Elements, in 2013. Why were you confident you would be successful? GM: My partners and I had to work very hard but were confident that the products would speak for themselves. We didn’t even have sales people for the first two or three years, it was just word of mouth. We now have 60 employees, and are currently exploring the export market. I’m really pleased with how it has worked out.

foodtalk ISSUE 45

FT: 這是你第二次回到香港工作。是甚麼吸引你再來? GM: 我第一次來香港是在當時的麗晶酒店擔任糕點廚師。第 二次則是獲邀加盟全新香港四季酒店的開業團隊。當第一天上 班時,我仍需要戴上頭盔,因為酒店還在施工中!這非常具挑 戰性,但我們在整個過程中可謂做到盡善盡美的品質。 FT: 你於2013年開設了自己的烘焙工場Bread Elements。你 為何對能成功充滿信心? GM: 我和合作夥伴都非常投入工作,相信顧客會信賴我們的 優質產品和服務。 我們最初兩三年甚至沒有任何銷售人員, 只靠行家的口耳相傳。我們現在有60名員工,目前正在探索 出口市場的機遇。我對現時的進展感到頗滿意。 FT: 您首家同時提供麵包和咖啡的店舖Bakehouse最近開 業。你是怎樣做出自家店舖的特色,從其他對手中脫穎而出? GM: 我覺得一切都關乎客戶體驗。我們會在店內烘焙新鮮麵 包,並確保質量保持在最高水平,顧客一眼就能夠看出來,

CHEF’S TALK I HONG KONG

“We are all passionate people, who value handcrafted, wholesome and authentic food” 「我們對美食充滿熱情,非常重視手工製作、健康以及正宗的食品」 FT: Your first retail venture, Bakehouse bakery/cafe recently opened. How have you tried to differentiate it from other cafes? GM: It’s all about the customer experience. We cook our bread fresh on the premises, it is very good quality, and they can see that, yet we keep our prices reasonable. We want to connect with people and the neighbourhood. FT: You collaborate with local artisans who supply you with chocolate, coffee and other produce. Why this is important to you? GM: We encourage partnerships with like-minded producers of ingredients we use in our products. We are all passionate people, who value handcrafted, wholesome and authentic food.

但我們也會確保價格合理。我們希望能夠與顧客和社區建立緊密 的聯繫。 FT: 你與本地的傳統食材生產商合作,取得朱古力、咖啡以及其 他農產品的供應。這些產品為何對你們如此重要? GM: 我們支持與具有相似理念的生產商合作,在產品中使用其優 質食材。我們對美食充滿熱情,非常重視手工製作、健康以及正 宗的食品。 FT: 你最著名的產品之一是牛角包。你能說一下其獨特之處嗎? GM: 我喜歡多層的麵粉團,例如用於牛角包和丹麥糕點的麵粉 團。我的牛角包會用上一點酸麵粉團,讓它們有一點點的香脆和 一點點的酸味。


FT: One of your most famous products are your croissants. Can you explain what is so special about them? GM: I like layered dough, such as is used in croissants and Danish pastries. With my croissants I add a little sourdough, which gives them a bit of crunch and a hint of sourdough flavour. FT: You won the title Best Pastry Chef 2013 for Hong Kong & Macau. What did that mean to you? GM: I was very surprised, but flattered of course. It came down to more than just my professional work though – it also took on board my community involvement and teaching. FT: What do you value about Angliss products and the service you receive? GM: I have been working with Angliss for a long time – I’ve even judged their pizza competitions! Of course, while I like the quality of Angliss products, I also value their involvement and support.

FT: 您贏得了2013年香港和澳門最佳糕點廚師的稱號。你有甚 麼特別的感覺? GM: 我非常意外能夠獲得這個稱號,心情當然是受寵若驚。烘 焙不單是我的專業,現時我也有開展社區參與和教學工作。 FT: 你對安得利產品和服務有何看法? GM: 我與安得利合作良久,我甚至為其薄餅比賽擔任評判!當 然,我十分欣賞安得利產品的質量,亦很重視他們的投入和支 持。

Antimo Merone, Executive Chef at one Michelin-starred restaurant, 8½ Otto e Mezzo BOMBANA, in Galaxy Macau, reveals how he carries on traditions for three Michelin starred Hong Kong based celebrity Chef Umberto Bombana FT(Foodtalk): Did your upbringing in Italy’s Naples region influence your career choice? AM(Antimo Merone): Yes. The Pozzuoli area where I grew up is in Campli Flegrei - Phlegraen Fields - west of Naples. It has rich volcanic soil perfect for vegetable and fruit such as tomato - my favourite product. I remember as an 18-month toddler, I would eat every tomato ripening in the sun on our balcony. My grandmother had a farm in the countryside. She was a good cook and we enjoyed mussels, squid and eel-grilled and simply prepared. Our Sunday lunch was often ragu, cooked for many hours on Saturday and then reheated.

FT: Why jump to cooking in Berlin after studying finance in university? AM: While I was at university studying finance, I went backpacking. In Berlin, I discovered that I really wanted to cook.

AM: 在大學修讀金融時,我去了一次背包 旅行。在柏林,我發現自己對烹飪真的很 著迷,於是我就留下來,在Vai Mo’(意 指速食外賣店)跟一個名為Gioacchino Conti的西西里人工作。其中一個熟客非常 欣賞我煮的食物,於是出資給我開了一間 小餐廳。我們會因應市場當天供應的新鮮 食材,炮製簡單的意式美食。我甚麼崗位 都需要負責:經理、廚師、採購員。簡直 忙得要命!一年後,我聽母親的話重回校 園接受正規的烹飪訓練。 FT: 你從頂級烹飪學院Alma Scuola Internazionale di Cucina Italiana學到 了什麼?

me to open a bistro. We served simple Italian fare based on whatever that was available at the market that day. I was everything: manager, chef, purchaser - it was crazy! After a year there, I yielded to pressure from my mother, returning to school for a proper culinary education. FT: What were the lessons learned from top culinary institute Alma Scuola Internazionale di Cucina Italiana? AM: Culinary school was a different sort of challenge. The chef instructors pushed me hard. I was fascinated by the allure of Michelin stars, and that gave me the motivation to apprentice for Massimo Camia at Locanda nel Borgo Antico and Antonino Cannavacciuolo at Villa Crespi.

FT: 你為什麼會選擇到香港工作? AM: 我不太想留在意大利工作,而是希望能夠出外闖一闖。當 Umberto Bombana首次獲得米芝蓮三星時,我得知他的大名。 我冒昧寫信給他,但當時沒有空缺,於是我只好把到香港工作的 夢想暫擱一旁,直到布雷西亞(Brescia)Miramonti L’Altro的 Philippe Léveillé邀請我到他那裡工作,我當然欣然接受。2012 年,我們在L Place開設了L’Altro。餐廳開業的同一年就獲得米 芝蓮一星。其後,我在那裡工作直到2014年。 FT: 你對名廚Bombana的第一印象怎樣?他和他的食物有何特 別的吸引之處? AM: 初時我以為他難以接近,但認識久了才發現完全相反。他其 實非常平易近人,從不對我們呼呼喝喝。Bombana非常熱愛美

FT: Why did you choose Hong Kong as a place to work? AM: I didn’t want to work in Italy; I was keen to explore the world. I heard about Umberto Bombana when he received three Michelin stars for the first time. I wrote him but he didn’t have an opening then. I forgot about my dreams of working in Hong Kong until Philippe Léveillé of Miramonti L’Altro in Brescia offered me a job, and I jumped at the opportunity. In 2012, we opened L’Altro in L Place. The restaurant received a Michelin star the same year we opened. I stayed there until 2014.

食,而且總是在廚房裡努力將每件事做到盡善盡美。他與我父親 的年齡相近,此外我們對烹飪有著相同的理念。

FT: What were your first impressions of Chef Bombana? Was there something particularly appealing about him and his food? AM: I thought he looked a bit scary! But he is completely the opposite - he is a super nice guy and never yells. Chef Bombana is completely in love with food, healways stays in the kitchen and tries to make things better. He is around my father’s age, and we share the same philosophy. I worked with him in Hong Kong for seven months prior to moving to Macau; we opened here in May 2015. The menu in Macau offers around 70% of the same dishes from Hong Kong. We develop new dishes together, incorporating

“We understand the personality of each guest” 「成功之道就是要了解每位食客的個性」 a few from my southern Italian background. Although Chef Bombana is from the north, he loves Mediterranean flavours. FT: Why is your restaurant so successful? AM: We understand the personality of each guest. We never box ourselves in; we deliver experiences according to each guest’s expectations. We offer precise service in a formal manner, yet we are never stiff. We present food in a straightforward way using great products. We never over manipulate; instead, we apply rigorous techniques. We received our first Michelin star after one year in Macau: a big honour. Chef Bombana was the first chef in Hong Kong to use white truffle, and our restaurants are famous for our truffle dishes. Our customers are crazy for it! We offer incredible value for money, since we are very generous with how we use it. FT: What are some differences working in a casino resort? AM: Timing: some high rollers don’t wish to stay long to dine, if they have only an hour, we would then recommend a few dishes from our à la carte or short tasting menu rather than the traditional one. I have noticed that customers’ tastes are changing. Up to 80% of our diners prefer the tasting menu. It is a great way to approach our restaurant. As it changes seasonally and isn’t too heavy, people can enjoy something different every time.

我搬到澳門之前曾在香港與他共事七個月,我們於2015年5月在 濠江開業,這裡的菜單中約有七成與香港的相同。我們會一起創 作新菜式,有時會融合意大利南部特色。儘管Bombana來自意 大利北方,但他頗喜歡地中海風味。 FT: 為何你的餐廳如此成功? AM: 成功之道就是要了解每位食客的個性,千篇一律需要極力避 免,我們會根據每位客人的期望提供最佳的進餐體驗。以正統的 方式提供精確的服務是我們的座右銘,但我們從不會事事因循。 直截了當地使用優質食材呈現佳餚,這是非常重要的。我們會嚴 格遵循各個步驟,但從不會適得其反。正因持續的努力,餐廳在 澳門開業一年就獲得了米芝蓮一星,可謂莫大的榮譽。 Bombana是香港首位使用白松露的廚師,而我們的餐廳一直都 以松露菜式而聞名。到餐廳進餐的客戶對此深感著迷,原因是我 們大量加入松露,因此食物是非常物有所值。 FT: 在賭場度假村工作有什麼不同體驗? AM: 一些客人不願花長時間用餐,而是希望能夠盡快投入博彩娛 樂。如果只有一小時,我們會從單點或淺嚐菜單,而非傳統的餐 牌中推薦幾道菜給他們。 我留意到顧客的口味正在改變,多達八成的用餐者偏愛淺嚐菜 單,這是到我們餐廳品嚐美食的極佳方法。由於菜單會隨時令作 出改變,且食物份量不會過多,食客每次都可以享用不同的美 食。

LT: Before travelling to a country to compete I first try to gain an understanding of the food culture there and also take the season into account. Pigeon and rabbit are both technically demanding, especially when cooking for 110 people, but we pulled it off. Training and attention to detail is key. FT: At the IKA/Culinary Olympics you made history by representing the first Asian country to win both the cold display and hot cooking categories. How did you achieve that unique accolade? LT: To be honest I never thought of winning. But we put in a lot of effort in during training and received great help and advice from our Singapore Chefs’ Association mentors.

LT: I have taken part in many TV cooking shows – I enjoy the experience but it can take the whole day just to film a 30-minute show! FT: Back in your day job, is it hard to get out of competition mentality? How do you relax after the intensity of competition? LT: It’s true that whenever I take part in competitions I never stop thinking about how to improve dishes! But it’s important to find the right way to do things. To relax I go for my favourite prawn noodles, have a glass of red wine and think about potential new dishes.

LT: 通過這些比賽,我獲得了許多鑽研煮藝的機會,並能創出新 的烹調技巧及口味。在IKA奧林匹克世界烹飪大賽中,我們代表 新加坡成為首個贏得錦標的亞洲國家。此外,我們也曾在幾年間 三次於廚藝世界盃 (Expogast Culinary World Cup) 中獲獎。 FT: 你曾在新加坡的電視烹飪節目上擔任評判,當中的經驗是怎 樣的?

HEALTH TALK I TIPS OF THE SEASON

Eating your way to Spring

Health Spring is on us, and if a few months of comfort eating and extra glasses of wine have slowed you down, now is the time to shake off the winter blues

M

any of us piled on a few pounds over winter, and as warmer weather beckons are keen to get back into shape. While exercise is of course an essential part of weight loss, it’s been proved that diet is 70% responsible for this. There is no shortage of trendy diets and health fads that claim to help with this – from turmeric, matcha, kale, spirulina, reishi and cordyceps, seaweed, quinoa, fava and more, the list of quick-fix ingredients continues to grow. The truth is, of course, more simple and common sense than this. While these esoteric elements can unquestionably contribute to a balanced diet, the fastest and most effective way towards weight loss and a healthier lifestyle is lighter proteins, more vegetables and smaller portions. So what lighter proteins are we talking about? Fish, chicken and lean red meats such as lamb and beef can all make a big difference. As well as this, try to increase your intake of vegetables and beans, fruit, grains and cereals, complex carbohydrates, couscous, oats, quinoa and barley, eggs, tofu, nuts and seeds and light yoghurts and cheeses. As well as weight loss, lighter proteins and vegetables are key in reducing the risk of obesity and chronic cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancers.
