Singapore Airlines Partners Ming Court in Hong Kong

Singapore Airlines has partnered Ming Court, a Michelin two-star restaurant at Cordis Hotel in Hong Kong, to bring authentic Cantonese cuisine to passengers departing from HKIA.

From 30 October 2016 to 30 April 2017, customers travelling in Suites, First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class and Economy Class from Hong Kong to Singapore or San Francisco will be offered an enhanced choice of Chinese dishes from the new menu, designed exclusively by acclaimed Executive Chef, Mango Tsang Chiu Lit, of Ming Court.

“Ming Court is devoted to customers’ well-being and is also known for choosing the finest seasonal ingredients in creating the best authentic Chinese dishes,” said Chef Mango Tsang, Ming Court. “We incorporated our belief into the new inflight menu of Singapore Airlines, using nutritious ingredients such as cordycep flower, which supplements the spleen and soothes digestion; ginseng, which energises the body; and wolfberry, which brightens the eyes. We also suggested a nourishing and nutritious dessert, Chilled Papaya Soup with Snow Fungus and Wolfberry to alleviate dryness from the relatively low cabin humidity. We are confident that these dishes by Ming Court will impress and elevate the dining experience even for the Chinese food gourmands from Hong Kong.”

The new menu will comprise tantalizing dishes tailored for each cabin class of Singapore Airlines.

Singapore Airlines Suite and First Class passengers can look forward to dishes such as Double Boiled Pork Shank with Chinese Yam and Wolfberry, Spanish Iberico Pork with Shanxi Aged Vinegar - which is often used as a health tonic, iron-rich Morel Mushroom Gingko Rice Quintet, and Chilled Papaya Soup with Snow Fungus and Wolfberry as dessert.

Business Class customers can enjoy a detoxifying boost from the appetiser, Truffle Marinated Roast Duck with Cordycep Flower, or a supplement of Omega 3 from Sauteed Prawns in Hot Bean Sauce.

Premium Economy Class can look forward to Steamed Ginseng with Minced Pork, while Economy Class customers will get Braised Ee-fu Noodles with Enoki Mushrooms and Roast Duck Meat.

“Hong Kong is one of the most dynamic dining capitals in the world. The collaboration with Ming Court marks our first partnership with a Hong Kong restaurant, an initiative which demonstrates the lengths that we go to bring the rich culinary world to our customers table in the sky,” said Mr. Sia Nam Kung. “The specially crafted dishes espouse our shared beliefs of wellness travel, that a wholesome inflight dining experience can be both delicious and beneficial for one's well-being. This gourmet menu reflects the passion of Singapore Airlines and Ming Court for creating delicacies which will elevate customers’ taste buds to new heights.”
