If you imagined Sex On The Beach to be just a cocktail, look it up on the Web with chef Alvin Leung's reference. His version is a mixture of mushrooms, honey, tapiocas and ham, and resembles a discarded pink condom on a beach. The London-born, Toronto-bred three-starred Michelin chef has created a unique brand called X-treme Chinese, through his popular restaurant, Bo Innovation, in Hong Kong. He specialises in combining traditional recipes with new-age cooking techniques and presentations to tempt the discerning gastronome. Now, he gears to turn JW Marriott into his lab to create six-course menus as part of the second edition of Michelin Pop Up presented by 4xFour (in partnership with the hotel).
