Ocean Park is launching Hokkaido Fest which goes from 23 March until 14 April, presenting a sumptuous array of seasonal gourmet food using ingredients flown in from Hokkaido. Guests will be able to enjoy over 70 selected snacks, drinks, dairy products and exclusive Sakura desserts at designated Park outlets. Alongside the finest food and drinks, guests must not miss out on the splendid “Beat the Taiko” performances only available during that period.
Select Ingredients from Hokkaido Brings Ultimate Indulgence
A sophisticated Hokkaido Fest 4-course Set Menu will be available at Tuxedos Restaurant. Start off with Roasted Hokkaido Half Shell Scallop with Cold Somen Noodle to refresh your taste buds, with the fresh scallops accompanied by silky and chewy somen noodle made with Hokkaido wheat flour. Your journey through Japan will be followed by Baron Potato Cream Soup with Black Garlic. Baron potato, a regional specialty of Hokkaido, embraces a natural milk aroma, while black garlic will add a special twist to the dish. The main dish Grilled Hokkaido KAMIKOMI Pork Loin with Mashed Black Edamame will use Hokkaido’s famous KAMIKOMI pork, an exceptional pig species famous for its balanced fat and muscle tissue – only 2 or 3 pigs in a hundred qualified to this standard. The tender and juicy pork loin and smooth bean paste will certainly satisfy guests’ taste buds. Leave your taste buds zinging for the rest of the day with the exquisite Hokkaido 3.6 Milk Pudding with Hasukappu Jam. The rich 3.6 milk creates a soft and smooth texture, deliciously paired with the sweet and sour jam made with Hasukappu from Hokkaido.
“Beat the Taiko” and Hokkaido Snacks Help Indulge Guests in Japanese Culture
During the event period, there will be three lively “Beat the Taiko” performances during weekends at Aqua City. The Park has also launched a series of famous Hokkaido snacks, including dairy products and drinks for guests.
