Seafood restaurant Drunken Fish is set to captivate diners with a world-class selection of seafood and premium wines when it opens at the Wynn Macau hotel on Sept 28. The restaurant promises a vibrant dining experience featuring rare and top-quality seafood from around the globe.
At the helm is executive chef Zhang Zhicheng, a rising star in the culinary world. Previously leading the award-winning Golden Flower Chinese restaurant, Zhang has earned prestigious accolades from Forbes Travel Guide, the Black Pearl Restaurant Guide, and Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants.
At Drunken Fish, Zhang and his team embrace traditional Chinese seafood culinary techniques while masterfully integrating innovative ideas from the region, including the purity of Cantonese cuisine, the spicy flavors of Sichuan and a fusion of Chinese and Western cooking from Hong Kong.
The restaurant’s Chinese name
Jiu Kun
captures the essence of China’s rich cultural heritage. According to Zhang,
jiu
(nine) symbolizes the array of premium seafood. It also sounds like the Chinese word for “liquor”, inviting guests to indulge in a journey of exceptional dishes from the sea while delving into the flavors of Moutai and fine Chinese wines.
Kun
is derived from the legend of the enormous mythical fish creature — the Master of the Sea — who symbolizes the vastness and extraordinary depth of the ocean.
