The new A Taste of Local Heritage menu at Cordis Hong Kong’s Ming Court showcases sustainable local produce from across the city.
Are you a lad that’s become a lot more mindful of what you’re putting into your body and from where your food originates? If you’re now nodding emphatically, you might want to take a lady friend for date night at Michelin-starred Ming Court at Cordis Hong Kong, which has just launched the new A Taste of Local Heritage Menu, created with locally-sourced produce.

To promote sustainable dining and support local communities, Ming Court’s Executive Chef Li Yuet Faat has created eight dishes laced with a host of locally-grown ingredients, including the Ping Yuen chicken from a farm in Fanling, air-dried seafood and dried tiger prawn from Lamma Island, dried shrimp paste, dried squid and salted fish from Tai O, and the famous Shek O Preserved Mustard Cabbage.

The goal of the new menu – apart from sating appetites – is to support local fisheries and agriculture, while also promoting sustainability and low carbon living.
