Chef Kwok Wai To

Kwok Wai To

Yu Yuan Head Chef
Born and raised in Hong Kong, Head Chef Kwok Wai To grew up surrounded by the rich flavours and heritage of Cantonese cuisine – a legacy that inspired him to launch his culinary journey at age 15 and become a renowned artisan of Cantonese cuisine. With a global career spanning luxury resorts and Michelin-starred establishments, he preserves and shares the beauty of authentic Cantonese recipes. Fueled by an unyielding passion for gastronomy, Chef To consistently elevates his craft, bringing joy to patrons of Yu Yuan.

Odd Strandbakken

Charles H. Head bartender
Creatively inspired since he made his first mocktail at age nine, native Norwegian Odd Strandbakken began bartending in a tiny town deep in the Arctic Circle where there were more polar bears than people. Since then, he has travelled to 42 countries working at the world’s top bars; sampling the finest global blends; and furthering his insatiable passion for distillation and fermentation, brewing and preservation. With a style that’s uniquely his own, Strandbakken is on a mission to support local producers over global brands and ensure house-made products take centre stage. He’s dedicated to minimalism so expect clean cocktails with a worldly vision, paired with a good story.

“If you want your cocktails to reflect a local and unique terroir, you have to use local, high-quality ingredients and global culinary techniques.”

As a content father of two Italian-Korean children, he embraced Korea and continues to create culinary wonders. At Boccalino, he seamlessly combines the rich culinary heritage of his homeland with fresh local ingredients and subtle Korean flavour accents, aligning with the focus on contemporary renditions of classic Southern Italian dishes.

“My cuisine is constantly evolving, driven by my love of fine flavour and the wide-ranging gastronomic and cultural inspirations I encounter.”
