Two-star Michelin Chefs from France to showcase Culinary Creations in Hong Kong this May

Search ASIA Travel Tips .com Latest Travel News Send to Friend Friday, 25 April 2008

In celebration of Le French May, The Landmark Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong has invited two of the finest two-star Michelin chefs from France to showcase their culinary creations at the hotel’s signature Amber restaurant. This “Star Extravaganza” will provide connoisseurs of French cuisine a rare chance to experience the artistry of two young and talented professionals.

The visiting chefs are Jean-François Piège from the world-renowned Le Crillon in Paris (7 to 10 May 2008) and Thierry Marx from the equally distinguished Château Cordeillan-Bage (26 to 29 May 2008).

Jean-François Piège has worked with some of the most respected names in the culinary world, from Bruno Cirino to Alain Ducasse, and has starred at some of the most famous restaurants in Paris from the Plaza Athénée to Les Ambassadeurs at Le Crillon.

From 7 until 10 May, Jean-François Piège will conduct his gastronomic symphony during four dinners and two unique private lunches only.  

5-course lunch, 7-8 May HK$1,288
10-course gastronomic dinner, 7-9 May HK$1,688
12-course gala dinner, 10 May HK$1,988

Thierry Marx, although he discovered the Médoc somewhat by chance, has since turned the encounter into a passionate relationship. The contrast between the civilisation of wine and vine and the primitive force of the river remains his source of inspiration. His cuisine is at once strict and imaginative, an expression in food that mirrors the way terroir affects the creation of wine, while his resolutely subtle approach leads to cuisine that perfectly matches the finest Bordeaux wines and makes each dinner at Château Cordeillan-Bage such an exhilarating and unforgettable experience.

From 26 until 29 May, Thierry Marx will unveil his inventive cuisine during four dinners and two private lunches only.

5-course lunch, 27-28 May HK$1,288
12-course gala dinner with Chateau Latour, 26 May HK$17,800
10-course gastronomic dinner, 27-29 May HK$1,688

Amber is The Landmark Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong’s contemporary French restaurant where Executive Chef Richard Ekkebus presents his interpretation of modern French cuisine.
