Chef Profile - Anson Lau

Biography

Chef Anson has over 12 years’ catering experience and 7-year experience in Chinese (Cantonese) kitchens. Born in a Shanghainese family, Chef Anson’s father has taught him cooking techniques since he was 7 years old as he had to take care of his own meals at that time. He can still recall the first dish he prepared by himself was the Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs, which was his favourite dish at that time.
Chef Anson started his culinary career in a local Cantonese restaurant. In 1993, he joined the Maxim's Chinese Restaurant and was promoted to Sous Chef. Anson then became the Executive Chef of a large-scale catering company where he leads the kitchen team delivering quality catering food to their clients.

Anson sources ingredients freshly from the market on the day of your dinner. He welcomes special requests for vegetarians.
