Right Some Good Unveils Exquisite Event Menus
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: June 29, 2011 (Halifax, N.S., Canada)
Right Some Good is launching mouthwatering menus, featuring delicious local ingredients from the sea, fields and forests of Cape Breton island. The dishes are unique and the pairings innovative, while each menu brings a distinctive flavour to each aspect of the Right Some Good foodie adventure.
This first of its kind series of culinary events will hit Cape Breton this summer, beginning August 25 and running until September 4 in unconventional locations throughout the island. Each event is spearheaded by an innovative culinary team, consisting of a world-class international chef, an inspired local chef and a promising junior chef.
The menus have been developed by the event’s international chefs, who hail from as far away as Peru, Hong Kong and all over Europe and as close as Vancouver and Los Angeles. They feature unique combinations like Scallop Ceviche on Grilled Watermelons, Fennel and Seaweed dusted Sole Fillets and Rhubarb Glazed Bras d’Or Pork Rack. They also show new twists on local favourites like the Mira Bay Lobster stuffed with shellfish butter and decadent Maple Apple Dumplings. All 10 custom menus focus on ingredients indigenous to Cape Breton, creating a demand for local products and exposing suppliers to new local and international markets.
“These menus are indicative of the talent and creativity of our internationally-renowned chefs,” says the event’s culinary director Chef Stefan Czapalay. “These menus truly showcase the amazing foodie experiences that we will see in Cape Breton this summer for Right Some Good. Now that the international chefs have created these menus, it will be even more interesting to see how the local and junior chefs prepare these one-of-a-kind dishes.”
Today, event organizers have released 7 of the 10 event menus. Chef Alvin Leung a.k.a the Demon Chef from Hong Kong, acclaimed ceviche creator Chef Javier Vargas Guimray from Peru and award-winning U.K. Chef Atul Kocchar are the final three menus remaining. These three innovators have been fastidiously developing their menus and trying out Cape Breton ingredients to create perfection on a plate. Their creations will be unique, stunning and executed with precision. The final three menus will be unveiled on Right Some Good social media channels in the next two weeks, amid much speculation!
