Glow of contentment
Armin Amrein brought his tastes of modern Davos all the way to Beijing to offer foodies the chance to sample his unique take on Swiss haute cuisine, Li Yingxue reports.
Glow, a Michelin-starred restaurant in the Swiss city of Davos had closed its doors for a week while its founder and chef, Armin Amrein, flew half way round the world to cook for foodies in Beijing.
Staying true to his basic principles of offering superb quality and absolute freshness, Amrein loves to experiment with the diversity of his creations, while his diners are able to savor the individual tastes of each ingredient.
