Tokyo style is a mixture. We have punk, luxury, high fashion, American traditional vintage and denim, and then Uniqlo and Muji — everything is mixed together here. It’s the same thing as our food — like how we mix pasta with natto [fermented soybeans]. It might sound weird, but it ends up being really good….

在Tatler Dining Guide創立的40週年之際，主廚劉韻棋Vicky Lau回顧其為促進烹飪行業團結一心所發揮的重要作用。 在瞬息萬變的香港餐飲業，潮流就如同維多利亞港的潮起潮落，只有少數餐廳才能長盛不衰。由劉韻棋Vicky Lau擔任主廚和創意總監的Tate Dining Room，卻能在此迎來開業的第12週年。 Vicky Lau在2015年被評為亞洲頂級女廚師，隨後又在2023年被Tatler Dining評為年度廚師，成為城中首位獲得米芝蓮二星的女廚師。出自她手的精湛料理，已然在香港高級餐飲界留下不可磨滅的印記。而她最近的新成就，如以大豆為主題的餐廳Mora以及自製豆製品系列Ān，都展現出她對新意的不懈追求。 回顧自己的職業生涯，Vicky Lau提起Tatler Dining在促進烹飪行業團結一心所發揮的重要作用。「對於工作量極大、日程不穩定的廚師來說，我們聚在一起並非易事，而Tatler Dining促進了我們的相聚。」所有活動之中，她對Dim Sum Duets記憶猶新：「在這個活動中，非中式廚師需要製作出符合各自風格的中式點心——這充分體現了這座城市的美食風格。」 想要在香港蓬勃發展，Vicky Lau深知不能墨守成規：「適應能力是關鍵。積極擁抱變化、不斷努力改進的餐廳，才有能力長期發展並壯大。此外，一致性也十分關鍵，在食品、服務、氛圍等各個方面保持高標準，建立忠實的客戶群和良好聲譽。」 此外，Vicky Lau也表明了精明理財在應對經濟波動時的重要性。數字之餘，她還強調了人與人之間的聯繫：「創造令人難忘的用餐體驗，才能確保食客會再度光臨。」她亦將營造積極的工作環境和重視員工福利放在首位：「營造歸屬感，能夠幫我們留住敬業的員工。」 時代不斷更跌，什麼才能經得住歲月的考驗？Vicky Lau的答案始終不變：「是香港的美食。」潮流稍縱即逝，而香港的美食文化始終跟至於烹飪傳統，以及對完美的不懈追求：「在這裏，人們不介意坐在路邊的小桌子和塑料椅子上用餐，只要料理的質量過關。」 Source link
