What exactly is Franco-Asian cuisine? When we think of French cuisine, the hallmarks of the utilising ingredients of the highest quality and artful presentation immediately spring to mind. When paired with the diverse flavours and various traditional cooking techniques synonymous with Asian cuisine, the result is a marriage that redefines what we know of both - a wondrous exploration of familiarity with elegance.

Themed “A Chinoiserie New Year” as a double-meaning of a lavish feast that awaits, there’s no one else more qualified to flaunt this culinary marriage than with the grand cru of Franco-Asian cuisine himself, Chef Justin Quek of Chinoiserie and JustIN Flavours of Asia.

SUNDAY LUXE X JUSTIN QUEK

Revered as one of Asia’s most celebrated chefs, Chef Justin’s passion for the culinary scene holds an illustrious career that spans over three decades. Upon realising his fire for the industry at a young age while working as a trainee chef at Mandarin Oriental in Singapore, he gradually rose through the ranks and decided to take the plunge by withdrawing his life savings to further his craft in Europe. After diving head first into some of the Michelin-starred restaurants abroad, his career then took off.

Returning home with an understanding of French techniques and love for Asian flavours, he gradually established his personal culinary style by merging both, eventually paving the way to accolades including a string of Chef of the Year Awards back in 2001 (World Gourmet Summit Awards), 2003 and 2004 (San Pellegrino Awards) just to list a few.
