Mr. POON Kit, the Head Chef of Chinese Restaurant of Fairview Park Country Club, said fresh fruits were not only aromatic but their sweet and sour tastes also went well with many different kinds of food Ingredients. For instance, pineapples are commonly used to cook with other vegetables and meats. Mango, strawberries and kiwi fruit, on the other hand, are not suitable to be cooked for too long because of their soft texture. They are best for quick stir-frying or making of sauces.

Growing Trend for Healthy Eating

The restaurant’s staff also adopts healthier Cooking Methods such as steaming and grilling. Food Ingredients are blanched before they are stir-fried. Their kitchen staff now becomes endeavour to use less salt, less sugar and less oil during cooking. Not only customers are satisfied, the restaurant also saves the cost on buying salt and oil as the prices of food Seasonings have been soaring in recent years.

To make novelty for the customers, the restaurant changes their menu every quarter and launches monthly promotional campaigns, including Chinese Regional Cuisines Feast, Mushrooms Feast and Lotus Feast (which features dishes made with lotus seeds and lotus roots).
