Considered by many food critics to be the world's top chef, Ferran Adria made a stop in Hong Kong and Beijing last week. Adria's known for avant-garde, deconstructed dishes like liquid ravioli and cantaloupe caviar. And now he's looking for the next big thing in culinary creativity.

Renowned chef, Ferran Adria visited Hong Kong and China on Thursday in search of inspiration. It's part of his quest to find the soul of Asian cuisine.

Many critics consider Adria to be the world's number one chef. At his own El Bulli restaurant, just outside of Barcelona, he's been creating numerous culinary experiments. But last month, he decided to close shop until 2014. He'll be traveling in Asia in search of knowledge and inspiration for his avant-garde creations.

[Ferran Adria, Chef]:
"The gastronomic culture of China is very, very important. Simply to just get to know all the products that don't exist in the west, but do in China would take months."

Adria plans to use El Bulli as the biggest testing ground for culinary creativity in the world. The project will involve 20 to 25 chefs, forging a way to creating the next delicious gastronomic invention.

One of the most interesting chefs on the planet - his creations are more than just unique, the appear very other worldly...Anthony Bourdain featured Ferran Adria on his show a few years ago & it's a must watch!...worth looking for it to be aired again - it's also available on DVD: Decoding Ferran Adria is the name of it.
