'I think a perfect cocktail should sense the emotions of the guests.' - Alvin Ching, Mixologist at Sugar rooftop bar and lounge

Alvin has participated in numerous local and international competitions and has made great achievements:

• Gin Mare's Mediterranean Inspirations 2019 - Hong Kong Champion and International Second Runner Up
• Moët Hennessy Diageo World Class Bartender of the Year (Hong Kong & Macau) 2021 – Top 6 Finalists
• The Loop 30 Best Eats 2021 – Best Mixologist

Alvin's career in food and beverages began at EAST Hong Kong's rooftop bar and lounge, Sugar from 2018, where he developed a passion for mixology.

He seeks inspiration from new happenings, new trends in daily life and from collective memories. As a mixologist, Alvin enjoys tending bar and mixing drinks, where he can draw on his creativity to design new drinks and perfect their presentation.

‘I get inspirations from the Hong Kong culture to create unique combinations in the form of a cocktail. ’ – Lydia Wong, Bartender at Sugar rooftop bar and lounge

Lydia’s career in food and beverages began two years ago at a café and a bar, where she developed an interest in mixology, before starting her bartending career at Sugar in 2021. With just over one-year experience, she has made remarkable progress at World Class competition 2022 finishing in 1^st runner-up.

When creating cocktails, Lydia thinks outside of the box by immersing elements from traditional Hong Kong delicacies into her mixology approach. She wishes to shine a light on the underrated and complex side of Hong Kong culture, a side that is not yet explored into too much internationally.

Stay tuned on her updates on Sugar’s social media platforms!
