During the 70s, chef Chan worked at many renowned local Sichuan restaurants, including Szechuan Lau Restaurant and The World Trade Centre Club at The Excelsior.

He joined Sichuan Lab in 2019 to introduce a new exciting, experimental gastronomic experience to Hong Kong, updating and infusing classics of Sichuan dishes with contemporary dining elements.
