An Evening of Cantonese Culinary Mastery with Chef Keith & Chef Leung at Shang Palace
Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur’s esteemed Cantonese restaurant, Shang Palace, invites guests on a gastronomic journey this August as two culinary masters unite for an exclusive four-hands dinner. Happening over two special evenings on 29 and 30 August 2025, this rare collaboration brings together Chef Leung Yu King of the Michelin-starred Summer Palace at Island Shangri-La, Hong Kong and Chef Keith Yeap, Executive Chinese Chef of Shang Palace Kuala Lumpur.
A celebration of heritage and innovation, the four-hands dinner is a harmonious meeting of minds where decades of culinary mastery converge. The special 6-course menu features elegant highlights such as chilled abalone, a vibrant tamarind prawn, and delicately steamed garoupa – each designed to bridge classic Cantonese traditions with Malaysian influence. At its heart is the Shang Palace Prestige: Twin Delicacies of Herb & Tea, a signature creation that unites braised beef cheek with jasmine-smoked beef ribs in a refined showcase of depth and balance.
Chef Leung, the culinary force behind Summer Palace’s 14 consecutive Michelin stars, is one of Hong Kong’s most respected chefs. Known for his precision and poetic approach to Cantonese cuisine, he is celebrated for his mastery in balancing seasonal purity with refined presentation. With over 30 years of experience in top-tier kitchens such as Fook Lam Moon and T’ang Court, Chef Leung’s dishes speak to tradition, elegance, and a lifelong devotion to the culinary arts.
