About Chef Barry Quek
Head Chef
Whey, Hong Kong 
Globetrotting Chef Barry finds inspiration for his cuisine as he travels and works around the world. Born and raised in Singapore, he discovered his interest in cooking at a young age and enrolled at the At-Sunrice GlobalChef Academy culinary school. He started his career in world’s renowned restaurants including Michelin-starred Joël Robuchon and Les Amis in Singapore.
He then moved on from cooking classic French cuisine, and immersed himself in an eye-opening farm to-table experience alongside chef Kobe Desramaults at In de Wulf in Belgium. Chef Barry continued to hone his craft in Attica in Melbourne where he witnessed the importance of fostering close relationships with local farmers, before travelling to London to work in Portland and Clipstone. He came back to Asia in 2017 to open Beet.
In May 2021, Chef Barry stepped into a new dimension and brought together his international experience with Singaporean flavours of his childhood at Whey, in partnership with ZS Hospitality Group. The restaurant was awarded one MICHELIN star by the MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong & Macau 2022 after eight months of operation.
About Chef Yew Eng Tong

Alma by Juan Amador, Singapore
Having worked with 3-Michelin Star Chef Christian Bau of Victor’s Dining, Germany, Chef Eng Tong has always been part of the Asian team for Chef Bau’s four-hands pop-ups, most recently at Michelin-starred Noi at Four Seasons Hotel. Chef Eng Tong was the team captain who led the Singapore National Culinary Team at the 2014 Culinary Olympics to clinch the championship, and was also the Singapore representative at the Bocuse d’Or – the world’s most famous culinary competition from 2013 – 2017. At the Asia selection of Bocuse d’Or 2012 in Shanghai, he exceeded all expectations and came in first, beating other Southeast Asian countries such as Japan to achieve the top podium position.
Chef Eng Tong’s vision for Alma by Juan Amador is to apply his years of deep-diving into competition culinary techniques to the menu to bring an elevated gastronomic experience for the diner.
