ITC Ratnadipa announces the launch of Shifu\u2019s Apprentice, an exclusive \u00e0 la carte dining experience led by Chef Liang and his apprentice, Chef Prithvi, taking place at Yi Jing from 10th<\/sup> to 21st<\/sup> December 2025, from 6.30 PM onwards. Shifu\u2019s Apprentice<\/em> draws its inspiration from the traditional master\u2013student relationship at the heart of classical Chinese cooking and in this spirit, the showcase brings together a celebrated master chef and his emerging prot\u00e9g\u00e9, offering a menu shaped by both heritage and the discipline of learning passed from one generation to the next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chef Liang brings more than forty years of experience in Chinese cuisine, shaped by a career that began when he was just 19. His cooking is guided by memories of the simple, comforting flavours he grew up with, especially the aroma of sizzling rice and the clean, fresh notes of Cantonese food. Over the years, he has worked across Asia, building a reputation for honest, well-balanced dishes that stay true to regional traditions. Now, as he mentors the next generation, Chef Prithvi works closely alongside him, preparing to take on the culinary leadership of Yi Jing at ITC Ratnadipa. Shifu\u2019s Apprentice<\/em> marks an important step as they together form a natural partnership: a master who has spent decades refining his craft, and a young chef learning how to carry that legacy and knowledge forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor me, cooking is not just about flavours, it\u2019s about sharing a story, a memory, a moment with every guest<\/em>,\u201d says Chef Liang. \u201cThis year at ITC Ratnadipa, I am proud to pass on the Shifu tradition to the next generation. Working alongside Chef Prithvi is truly rewarding, together we strive to honour the authenticity of Chinese cuisine while bringing in fresh ideas, so each dish reflects both tradition and the love we put into it.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEvery dish at Yi Jing tells a story, and working with Chef Liang makes each one even more special. I hope our guests can taste the care and tradition in every bite, and I warmly invite everyone to come and experience it for themselves<\/em>\u201d, Chef Prithvi added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u00e0 la carte menu will feature a selection of signature creations including cold spicy flat noodles shan xi style, black truffle prawn dumpling, sichuan flavoured seabass, and stir-fried lobster with tomato and eggs, offering guests an immersive experience that celebrates the quiet luxury of thoughtfully curated flavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yi Jing has long been recognised as one of Colombo\u2019s premier destinations for Chinese cuisine, celebrated for its commitment to authenticity and excellence. Shifu\u2019s Apprentice<\/em> is an unmissable event for families, friends, and culinary enthusiasts seeking a refined and memorable dining experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
