Elon Musk in particular has an order to fit his wacky attitude, but chef Akira Back enjoys giving his Asian-fusion meals a twist for all the renowned faces who enter his restaurant.

The chef hasn't observed anyone consuming the dish outside of the culinary community because it is so sophisticated for the average person's palate.

The former Iron Chef America contestant says, "I want to challenge myself in a new way." "I've been talking about London for almost fifteen years, and now it's happening.
