Chef Alvin Leung’s “X-treme Chinese” cuisine takes the familiar and brings it firmly into the future

After 13 years in Wan Chai, chef Alvin Leung has moved his “X-treme Chinese” restaurant Bo Innovation to Central, into a new space designed by Monique Lee of Mas Studio to even more concisely convey the essence of Hong Kong’s visual culture. The opening ten-course tasting menu, titled The Masterpieces, is driven as much by visual impact as it is dedicated to famous works of art throughout history. Straddling the line between the surreal and familiar, the opener is inspired by Andy Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup Cans and involves bites inspired by various Asian soups; while Dogs Playing Mahjong riffs on Cassius Marcellus Coolidge’s Dogs Playing Poker, and comprises tiny tiles of geoduck, smoked abalone, Indian lettuce stem and shiso plum. The wine list is equally iconoclastic, and service is polished and friendly.
