Summer Palace Partners with Dragonair to Offer Brand-New In-Flight Menu


WEBWIRE

Summer Palace announced its collaboration with Dragonair to offer passengers a brand-new Chinese cuisine in-flight menu. Passengers taking Dragonair flights from Beijing to Hong Kong can enjoy the dishes from this newly introduced menu starting 16 May 2014.

The newly designed Chinese menu was created by Summer Palace at China World Hotel, Beijing. The award-winning restaurant is famous for its combination of classic Cantonese cuisine and light, creative Huaiyang cuisine. Summer Palace Chefs Kenny Chan and Hou Xinqing worked together to design a delicious menu for Dragonair.

Born in Hong Kong, the reputed birthplace of Cantonese cuisine, Chef Kenny grew up surrounded by the fresh flavours and complex tastes of Cantonese food. He has an in-depth understanding of the essence of Cantonese cuisine. Chef Hou is from Yangzhou, the origin of Huaiyang cuisine. After gaining over 20 years of culinary experience in Huaiyang cuisine, Chef Hou has acquired countless cooking techniques to create authentic Huaiyang dishes.

Chinese dishes at the brand-new in-flight menu are the most popular dishes at Summer Palace. Tomato Jelly with Goose Liver, a combination of Eastern and Western food elements, is known for its delicate and rich flavour. Braised Pork Soft Rib with Egg and Dark Soy Sauce is a renowned Huaiyang dish. The meat becomes succulent and tender after simmering in cooking wine with ginger and spring onion for two hours. Another highlight of the dish is the eggs, braised for hours in pork gravy that adds a special aroma.

More than 20 Chinese dishes made with carefully selected ingredients interpret the perfect combination of classic Cantonese cuisine and creative Huaiyang cuisine.

The Chinese menu will not only be offered in first class and business class, but also in economy class to enable all passengers to enjoy the delicious dishes from Summer Palace.
