The word is out: the storied troupe of travelling chefs is popping up right here in Hong Kong from June 30, 2017 to August 4, 2017.

Chef Alvaro 'el Palanca' Ramos is making his debut at trendy Spanish tapas restaurant La Paloma from 16-21 August only, and we were lucky enough to enjoy a sneak preview of what's to come. The man himself is a pure embodiment of the food he serves: vibrant, quirky and a lover of all things Asian. Like any Spanish meal should, we started off with a glass or ten of Cava and Sangria before settling down to feast. Chef Alvaro's 6-course menu (priced at $398/person) consists of co
