Executive Chef Jul. 1995 – 31st Dec. 2001 Pacific Club, Hong Kong

The Pacific Club is one of the leading private member clubs in Hong Kong providing a prestigious venue to the social and business community. Boasting five Food and Beverage Outlets with dining rooms offering the best Western, Asian and Cantonese cuisine, member’s bar and lounge, private meeting and function rooms, an extensive outside catering service and a variety of monthly Food Promotions.

The Club is supervised with professional standards similar to a 5 star hotel, only without guestrooms. My culinary guests been mostly from the high society of Hong Kong and well versed about gourmet food and the latest food trends.

The task of being an Executive Chef at this exclusive members club presented me with the opportunity and flexibility to explore various cooking styles and food products I could not normally provide or acquire in a conventional hotel operation. To achieve such in a city like Hong Kong where the gastronomic standard is one of the highest in Asia, gives me an extra edge.

 

Responsibilities:

 

-  Fully in charge of all aspects in my kitchen catering to three restaurants, one bar, various banquette rooms and our Club’s yacht "The Pacific Princess", which is used to entertain local and visiting dignitaries from abroad and by our Hong Kong owners.

- Implementing and developing menus for our monthly food & beverage promotions that introduce various styles of cuisine to members.

-  Organizing and interacting with high-class foreign chefs and inviting them for food promotions. During my time we had visiting chefs from Italy, Australia, Spain, Switzerland, USA, Canada, Malaysia, Macau, Guam and New Zealand introducing us to their native culinary delights.

-  Development and implementation of staff training programs.

-  Hiring of all local and oversees kitchen staff.

- Overseeing service standards, hygiene and quality control in restaurants, the     Chinese kitchen, staff canteen and stewarding department.

- Furnishing the management with constructive ideas for overall improvements and marketing plans in all aspects of operation
