Chef Kam Hin Kenny Tse

Begin my career as a chef at the acclaimed Zuma, where myself took on one of Hong Kong’s most prestigious addresses and learnt the art of traditional Japanese izakaya dining.

I went on to train under the guidance of Matthew Abergel, founder of yakitori hotspot and award-winning, Yardbird. It was here that quickly became familiar with Japanese ingredients and techniques, particularly with the creation of dishes on the Robatayaki (charcoal grilling), and most importantly the beauty and simplicity of Japanese cuisine. After several years of observation and creating at Zuma, I went to assist Matthew to open Yardbird. During the time, Yardbird earned of the placed of #45, of San Pellegrino Asia’s 50 Best restaurants

In 2020 at the HM Awards for Hotel and Accommodation Excellence, was recognised as highly commended in the category of Hotel Chef of the Year.
