"Culinary arts are aesthetic, and I treat every dish
as an art treasure," Louis said, "There are countless
combinations of ingredients, and success depends
on whether you can hit an unexpected receipt or
not." Travel always brings afflatus. Having traveled
all over the world, he is keen on Xi'an, the ancient
capital city of 13 Dynasties. The quaint structures
depict the unique characteristics of the folk
custom in Northwest China, which provides him
the inspiration to create new dishes. Louis always
upholds an enterprising heart and constantly
learns from excellent counterparts in refining his
culinary skills and concept. When it comes to the
management of the kitchen, Louis emphasizes the
importance of treating people with reasoning at
work. However, he is also a jovial and gentle person
who personally gets along well with the team.
Out of the kitchen, Louis works out five times a week,
as keep in good condition is also an important part
of being a chef. His competence and self-control are
naturally shown after years of accumulations.
Mr. Louis Liu is a veteran of Western cuisine,
and it is his constant insistence to blend art and
cooking. With 21 years of culinary expertise, we
believe Mr. Louis Liu is all set to bring unique and
extraordinary experiences to diners.
