Our Chef

At Fulu Mandarijn, every dish begins with expertise. Our chefs come from Sichuan, the heartland of one of China’s most celebrated cuisines. Trained from a young age in the rich traditions of their homeland, they bring decades of experience, intuition, and creativity to our kitchen.

Sichuanese chefs are renowned for their ability to combine contrasting flavors including spicy, sour, sweet, bitter, and umami into a harmonious and layered experience. Some of their creations deliver bold, fiery heat while others tease the palate with delicate aromatics and intricate textures. Every ingredient is treated with respect and every spice is used with precision. Chilli is applied thoughtfully to enhance rather than overwhelm, revealing the true essence of each dish.

Our chefs follow a philosophy of authenticity without compromise. They balance tradition with innovation and carefully curate each plate so that every bite tells a story of Sichuan, showing its boldness, its subtlety, and its artistry. At Fulu Mandarijn, the heart of Sichuan comes alive through the hands of our chefs.
