SAVOUR 2013 
11-14 April 2013 
F1 PIT Building and Paddock 


Chef Profile: Alvin Leung



London-born, Toronto-raised Alvin Leung is a truly unique chef who has travelled extensively since childhood, making him well-versed in different cultures and cuisine. Although professionally trained as an engineer, Alvin draws inspiration from his visits to culinary heavens like El Bulli, Fat Duck and Joël Robuchon’s restaurants on a regular basis.

Alvin’s unique brand of “X-treme Chinese” cuisine combines centuries-old recipes with modern ingredients and cooking techniques, resulting in lighter  and more refreshing dishes in turn with modern palates. Using fresh seasonal market produce sourced locally and internationally from trusted suppliers, Alvin’s menu changes constantly showcasing the best of what’s on offer in the markets.

Recognised by his peers as one of the most creative chefs in Asia, Alvin regularly appears in master classes and demonstrations alongside celebrated chefs such as Ferran Adrià, Rene Redzepi and Martin Berasategui. In 2009, Bo Innovation became Hong Kong’s only independent restaurant to be awarded two Michelin stars. Alvin is also one of only two self-taught chefs in charge of a professional kitchen that has ever received Michelin stars, with the other being Heston Blumenthal.

Alvin is the midst of opening another Bo Innovation in London, UK.

Staying true to its name, chef Alvin Leung has continuously injected innovation into the dining experience at Bo Innovation.

Located in the heart of Wan Chai, this two Michelin star Hong Kong hotspot is also listed in the S. Pellegrino World’s 100 Best Restaurants and The Miele Guide’s Asia’s Top 20 Restaurants.
