Chef Alex Chow arrived in London in 2004 to lead the kitchen at the acclaimed Kai Mayfair. Chef Chow’s passion for produce not traditionally associated with Asian cuisine and his desire to innovate have earned him a reputation as one of London’s most exciting culinary talents and the Michelin-star in 2009.

Born in Malaysia, his first job in the culinary world was at the impossibly young age of fourteen. Moving to Singapore to work for the prestigious Fullerton Hotel, the access to Japanese, French and South Pacific ingredients gave him the tools and momentum to develop a new standard and interpretation of Chinese cooking.

Now master of his own team, Chef Chow has spent time developing his love of Western and Asian ingredients, subtly incorporating them into the ancient art that is Chinese cuisine. His talents have earned him many prestigious awards including Chinese masterchef of London and the Culinary Art in Miniature Award at the 2005 Restaurant & Hospitality Show at the Birmingham National Exhibition Centre as well as nominations by Restaurant Magazine for creating one of the UK’s best dishes in 2006 and 2007.

Masterchef Alex Chow will be presenting an Epicurean Delights menu at Majestic Restaurant from 13 to 17 April 2010.
