Leung Wing Cheung Joins Pan Pacific Orchard in
Singapore as Chinese Master Chef
(28/12/23)
Leung Wing Cheung has joined the Pan Pacific
Orchard as Chinese Master Chef.
Chef Leung’s culinary journey began in Hong Kong
in the 1960s and 70s working under seasoned restaurant chefs
before moving to Singapore about 30 years ago. That move placed him among the first wave of
influential Hong Kong chefs to impact the culinary scene there.
He
refined his skills at several prestigious Chinese fine dining
establishments, including the Tung Lok Restaurant Group, Li Bai
Chinese Restaurant at Sheraton Towers Singapore, and Summer Palace
at the former Regent Hotel.
Chef Leung also worked for 12 years as Executive Cantonese Chef at Si Chuan Dou
Hua at the Parkroyal on Kitchener Road, a fine dining restaurant under
the Pan Pacific Hotels Group, further cementing his status in the
culinary world.
The cornerstone of Chef Leung’s cuisine lies in
drawing out and elevating the natural flavours of
top quality ingredients with minimal seasoning, the true essence of
Cantonese cuisine.
His ability to seamlessly marry the subtleties of
different regional Chinese cuisines has resulted in an array of
nuanced dishes that have garnered widespread acclaim. Some of his
signature dishes, which he will continue to serve at Pan Pacific
Orchard, include his repertoire of double-boiled soups,
exemplifying the traditional techniques of ‘san bao liu dun’
(三煲六炖), the visually stunning Exotic Garden Yusheng with osmanthus
and black truffle sauce, a festive favourite transformed into an
all-year-round delicacy, as well as crispy noodles with
Australian lobster meat, ginger and scallion, served in a
lobster broth-infused egg gravy, all minimally seasoned
to highlight the freshness of the ingredients.
Chef Leung will showcase his talents at The Chairman’s Lounge
private dining concept at the Pan Pacific Orchard and will also oversee
the hotel's Chinese banquet kitchen.
“My culinary philosophy centres
on respecting the traditional essence of Chinese cooking,
showcasing the unique characteristics of each dish to my guests,”
said Chef Leung. “At The Chairman’s Lounge, I see an exciting
stage for my culinary creativity. My aim is to craft dishes that
not only entice the senses but also weave a narrative, connecting
diners to the rich legacy of Chinese culinary tradition. It's a privilege to bring my passion and experience to Pan Pacific
Orchard, where I hope to create memorable dining experiences that
touch both heart and palate.”
