Lau, who opened Tate Dining Rooms in Hong Kong’s Central district in 2012, came to cooking from a career as a graphic designer, after graduating from New York University. She enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu school in Bangkok, which inspired her career change.
Tate Dining Rooms made a name for itself with Lau’s ‘Edible Stories’, creating a narrative around the chef’s French-Asian inspired menu. Diners at the 26 street restaurant are “taken on a journey”, as each course tells the story from start to finish.
Lau will be presented with her award at Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants awards ceremony on 9 March 2015 at Capella Hotel, Singapore.
