As the only invited female chef from Asia, she joined Chef David Mu\u00f1oz for a two-day guest collaboration, using cuisine as a medium to carry out an in-depth exchange of flavors and culture.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As the only three-Michelin-star restaurant in Madrid, DiverXO is globally renowned for its highly creative culinary expression. Chef David Mu\u00f1oz blends street culture, traditional techniques, and avant-garde concepts, turning each dish into a composition of visual impact and layered flavors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During this collaboration, such bold and imaginative expression met and intertwined with the refined flavor system rooted in Qingcheng Mountain, China. Throughout the two-day four-hands collaboration, Chef Ziling Zhou drew inspiration from &#8220;Sichuan home-style cuisine,&#8221; reinterpreting ingredients and flavor structures to bring warmth and depth of Sichuan cuisine to the tables of Madrid.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A key highlight was the use of Hanyuan tribute pepper as a central flavor element. Systematized within Yinguo Modern Sichuan Cuisine as part of its &#8220;Tribute Pepper Flavor Lab,&#8221; this distinctive flavor profile presented a dynamic aromatic structure and rhythm, offering a new sensory dimension within a Western culinary context.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rather than a one-way presentation, this collaboration unfolded as a two-way deconstruction of flavor. One side pushed boundaries with bold creativity and structural innovation, while the other responded with mountain-inspired subtlety and Eastern restraint. Their dialogue at the same table demonstrated how flavor can become a language to be understood, translated, and recreated.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As the only local restaurant group in Chengdu holding a Michelin one-star, Black Pearl one-diamond, and Relais &amp; Ch\u00e2teaux membership, Silver Beach&#8217;s presence in Madrid marked not only a high-level international collaboration but also a step forward in expanding the global expression of Sichuan cuisine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This encounter at the end of April was more than the completion of a collaboration \u2014 it was an exchange and record of culinary &#8220;codes.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the table, there are no boundaries between mountains and seas. And new flavors are already unfolding.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> View original content:https:\/\/www.prnewswire.co.uk\/news-releases\/chef-ziling-zhou-founder-of-silver-beach-asias-first-female-truffle-knight-chef-O-culinary-visionary-spanish-three-michelin-star-chef-david-munoz-a-culinary-dialogue-from-chengdu-to-madrid-concludes-successfully-302765434.html<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 PR Newswire.
