Chinese gets extreme

alvin leung 2012 - Alvin_Leung_2012.jpgRule-bending chef Alvin Leung is bringing his individual cooking style to London this September with Bo London.

Alvin Leung does not do things by halves. His self-branded style of cooking, ‘X-treme Chinese’, often challenges diners – his infamous Sex on the Beach dish resembled a used condom discarded on a patch of sand.

However, for Bo London – the celebrated Hong Kong chef’s first overseas venture, coming to Mayfair in September – Leung is more likely to serve dishes from his two-Michelin-starred restaurant, Bo Innovation, such as his signature hairy crab soufflé.

‘My aim is to have people say: “That was the best meal I’ve ever had”… so I just work backwards from that,’ he says. Expect big things.
