Cooking with Culinary Stars at InterContinental Hong Kong

 

In 2016 InterContinental Hong Kong continues its popular series of “Cooking with the Culinary Stars” classes. Learn to cook with the celebrated chefs from InterContinental Hong Kong’s diverse restaurants, which include the 1-Michelin star SPOON by Alain Ducasse, 2-Michelin star Yan Toh Heen and NOBU InterContinental Hong Kong. In addition, the hotel’s “Baking Club” features demonstrations under the guidance of SPOON’s Pastry Chef Olivier Lannes and InterContinental Hong Kong’s Executive Pastry Chef Cyril Dupuis. The hotel’s Executive Chef Nicola Canuti will also be sharing his Italian specialties at one of the 2016 classes.

 

The Cooking Classes cover everything from classic cooking techniques and essentials to specialty and seasonal dishes. The hotel’s chefs will showcase their diversity in international cuisine including French, Japanese and Cantonese and both modern and traditional techniques. Each class includes lunch featuring the dishes from the class, plus wine-pairing.
