24 August 2015, Hong Kong: For a limited time in September, Michelin-recommended Chinese restaurant of The Mira Hong Kong, Cuisine Cuisne, will be serving a jet-fresh menu of sustainable Atlantic Canada Seafood prepared with respect of traditional cooking techniques and the restaurant's signature, contemporary twist.

Sourced from the clean cold waters of the Atlantic Canada succulent seafood such as certified by Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) Canadian Lobster, wild caught Greenland Halibut (Turbot), Atlantic Salmon, harvested wild Sea Coral (Canadian Sea Cucumber also known as northern or orange footed sea cucumber) prized for its beautiful texture and high nutritional value, and sweet and tender rope-cultured Blue Mussels that are the pride of the Canadian shellfish industry, were selected as the highlights of the menu curated by newly joined Chef de Cuisine, Jayson Tang.

Originating from the four Atlantic Canadian Provinces: New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island, where commercial fishery and aquaculture sectors are committed to innovative harvesting and farming practices and sustainability, naturally delicious, highest quality seafood is praised for maintaining the delicate balance of the visual appeal, mouth-watering aroma, full-bodied flavor and satisfying texture.

While over half the world's supply of lobster – Hong Kong's most beloved seafood - comes from the clear, cold waters of Atlantic Canada, this Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certified natural resource is carefully protected. Sourced from a strictly limited number of independent fishers who tend their own traps and adhere to sustainable harvesting practices, each lobster is individually inspected, with the undersized and females with eggs released to protect the future of the fishery. After harvesting, lobsters are carefully maintained in optimal conditions mimicking the natural environment as they are conditioned for travel which minimizes stress, resulting in a best quality product at its prime.

The Atlantic Canada Seafood Menu is available at dinner time only as a la carte selection from 8 September till 20 September, 6:30pm – 10:30pm. Promotion is supported by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong.
