InterContinental Hong Kong's 2-Michelin star Yan Toh Heen presents a “Taste of Spain” from November 19, 2018 – January 31, 2019, with a special menu by Executive Chef Lau Yiu Fai featuring a new selection of Cantonese dishes with top quality ingredients from Spain, including Red Carabinero Shrimp from the Mediterranean Coast and Iberico Pork Cheek, prepared in traditional Chinese cooking styles.

Red Carabinero Prawns have a long history in the cuisine of Spain's coastal towns. Though associated with Andalusian food, this species actually stretches all the way up to Catalonia in the northeast Spain and is prevalent on Spain's Mediterranean coast.

Iberico Pork comes from black Iberico pigs, native to Spain's Iberian Peninsula, where they are feed acorns in the forest.  Due to its unique taste, texture and flavour, it is often referred to as Wagyu of pork.

Chef Lau's Cantonese Menu with premium Spanish ingredients includes:

• Pan-seared Dumplings with Spanish Pork and Black Peppercorns
• Crispy Spanish Carabinero Shrimp and Turnip in Puff Pastry
• Simmered Spanish Carabinero Shrimp with Chili Sauce and Egg
• Stewed Spanish Pork Cheek with Preserved Vegetables in a Casserole
• Stewed Spanish Sea Bass and Black Olives with Black Pepper Sauce in a Casserole
• Wok-fried Spanish Pork Roll and White Asparagus with Spicy Sauce
