25 Mar 2013
(Hong Kong, March 2013) Make your way to The Bostonian at The Langham, Hong Kong in April to indulge in the most extravagant oyster experience ever.
Oyster expert and Managing Director Michael Filippidis (aka ‘Oyster Mike’) of Seafood Exporters Australia, will fly in from South Australia to share his expertise and passion for oysters as he shucks away during the week-long event.
Events include oyster sampling sessions called Oyster Flight from 22 to 28 April - ideal for an after-work or pre-dinner activity. On 25 April, oyster enthusiasts should sign up for the Oyster and Wine Master Class where Oyster Mike will wax lyrically about the world’s favourite aphrodisiacal ingredient.
Exclusively on the 26 April, Executive Chef Mark Bannon creates a five-course oyster themed menu, exquisitely paired with a range of Sauvignon wines – an event oyster-aficionados should not miss.

About Michael Filippidis
Originally starting as an oyster farmer in 1990, Filippidis learnt the craft of aquaculture in South Australia's seafood frontier, where the pristine coastal waters provided an idyllic environment for natural farming of quality oysters and seafood varieties.
In 2001, he began to focus on exporting oysters and received considerable support for this venture from other Australian farmers. Together with the help of his family, Seafood Exporters Australia's aquaculture producers sustainably harvest the freshest oysters and seafood from Australia's coastal areas.
Today, Seafood Exporters Australia has established the largest oyster export factory of Pacific oysters in South Australia, and is one of the largest processors, distributors, importers, exporters and retailers of fresh and frozen seafood in the country, exporting on a daily basis to Hong Kong, Mainland China, Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam and the United Arab Emirates.
