Demon chef Alvin Leung’s restaurant, Bo Innovation explores Hong Kong’s culinary history with a modern twist. Leung is known as a judge on MasterChef Canada but is famous for his interpretation of Chinese cuisine, which he calls X-treme cuisine.

Leung offers several set menus, and his ideas keep evolving. His most recent creations are on his Big Red Hong Kong Wedding tasting menu, such as Son of a Scallop: Hokkaido scallop, shiso plum, lotus root, “lui yee hung”; Rich Abalone: butter-poached abalone, caviar, mung bean; and Miss Piggy Goes Red: slow-roasted suckling pig. Diners can either sit at the open kitchen and watch the chefs in action or at a table. We recommend wine pairing.
