Modern ‘Siu Mei’ Restaurant Chop Chop brings Back the Seasonal Claypot Rice Menu

by Ella

CHOP CHOP, the traditional Cantonese siu mei (Chinese barbecue) restaurant in Fortress Hill with a modern twist, launches a new menu of seasonal autumn and winter clay pot rice. One of the most classic delicacies Hong Kongers love to indulge in when the temperature drops, clay pot rice is an age-old remedy for combating the chill of colder months. From now until the end of Feb 2022, Hong Kong “God of Cookery” Chef Dai Lung presents eight flavourful and nourishing interpretations of clay pot rice, available at CHOP CHOP in Fortress Hill for dine-in, takeaway, or delivery via official website, Deliveroo, OpenRice and Foodpanda.

Clay Pot Rice with a Focus on Quality Ingredients

At CHOP CHOP, the rice is always of supreme quality, from a variety farmed in Wuchang City, Heilongjiang Province, where longer winters allow just one harvest per year – making it famously precious with clear grains and a delicate fragrance. Chef Dai specially selects locally-produced ‘firstborn eggs’, or ‘smart eggs’, which are laid by young hens. The smaller-than-ordinary eggs yield a higher protein and nutritional value, richer yolks, and transparently clear egg white. Finally, the sauces are made from only natural soy sauce, without the use of MSG nor artificial additives, fermented over two years for a rich and aromatic soybean flavour.
