Everything To Know About Black Sheep’s Four-Hands Collaborations

Six Black Sheep chefs, twelve Black Sheep hands. Black Sheep Restaurants’ 10-year anniversary celebrations continue apace with a series of unique, four-hands culinary collaborations at BELON, Grand Majestic Sichuan and Le Garçon Saigon.

As you may have heard, read, seen and most importantly, tasted by now, Black Sheep Restaurants is in the midst of a grand birthday celebration. It’s ten candles for the Hong Kong born-and-raised restaurant-group-turned-hospitality-movement, and no one is happier than founders Syed Asim Hussain and Christopher Mark, who have rang in the festivities with everything from a Prestige cover story to a wide range of specials, experiences, throwback dishes and beyond across the group’s 35-strong portfolio of fine dining destinations and lively neighbourhood hangouts.

Stories and community are at the heart of the Black Sheep ethos, and for ‘Gala Week’, the grand finale to this yearlong jubilee, the group has tapped its greatest storytellers, its chefs, to join forces on some one-of-a-kind, two-night-only menus — sure to be the latest chapter in the group’s long history of “you had to be there” moments.

From French and Japanese to Vietnamese and Punjabi — and of course, all the fiery flavours of Sichuanese fare — these are three meals you won’t want to miss.
