Hawksworth embarks on Hong Kong culinary adventure

A prestigious invitation to cook at acclaimed SEVVA restaurant

The Hawksworth Restaurant executive team are thrilled to have been invited by Bonnie Gokson, owner of Hong Kong hot spot SEVVA to present a series of showcase menus to discerning diners at the highly acclaimed international restaurant.

This exciting opportunity offers a culinary exchange between two exceptional dining establishments, both leaders in the restaurant industry in their respective styles and countries. At SEVVA the cuisine is inspired by the cultural diversity of Hong Kong itself exploring authentic tastes typical of those created in everyday Chinese regional kitchens alongside a myriad of influences from the colonial days. Hawksworth’s contemporary Canadian cuisine embraces the very best of local land and sea while similarly drawing on the city’s melting pot of cultural diversity to include Asian, Indian and European influences always imparting a fresh West Coast flavour.

“This is chance for Hong Kong diners to experience our distinctive style of regional cuisine paired with the outstanding wine list at SEVVA,” says Chef Hawksworth. “It is also very exciting for our team to experience this inspiring world-class food and wine city and to build on our product knowledge, culinary repertoire and service skills together. We are honoured to have been invited.”

A deeper knowledge of local customs, culture, traditions and food-preparation will no doubt impact the team and the offerings at Hawksworth Restaurant as the trip culminates with an increased global culinary perspective.

The Hawksworth executive team presents a Canadian culinary showcase at SEVVA from Wednesday 21st March to Friday 30th March 2012.
