Hard Work and Dedication - Regal Palace Restaurant |
Mr YIP, the Chief Chef, observed that people are paying more and more attention to healthy eating. To cater for the need of customers, the restaurant joined the "EatSmart@restaurant.hk" Campaign to offer healthy choices.
To meet the requirements of EatSmart Dishes, Mr YIP and his team prepared their dishes by double-boiling, stir-frying and grilling. Moreover, they used natural food Ingredients such as sea cucumber, wildlife bamboo fungus, mushrooms and vegetables.

Yet team effort is crucial in promoting the EatSmart Campaign. It starts with the Chief Chef, the restaurant manager and communications staff, who collaborate to design new dishes. It often takes about two weeks of trials before a new dish is served on the dining table.
In the day-to-day operation, members of the food service team and kitchen team need to familiarise with the EatSmart Dishes. The kitchen team members, in particular, have to know the recipe well and cook with less salt, sugar and oil. The food service team also works closely with the communications team in promoting EatSmart Dishes, while a well-designed menu helps customers to identify the EatSmart dishes. The restaurant also organises training to equip the colleagues with knowledge on healthy eating and nutritional value of different foods.
Last but not least, colleagues of the customers service team proactively promotes EatSmart Dishes to customers.
