Seasonal Feast at StarWorld Macau
HONG KONG and MACAU, April 30, 2012 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Early summer is the best season for fresh asparagus. Temptations at StarWorld Macau is presenting an asparagus-themed buffet, Summer Parade of Asparagus. Unlimited supply of high quality asparagus around the world will be available, offering guests the most exquisite and refreshing summer flavor. In addition, to celebrate Mother's Day, all guests can enjoy a complimentary Steamed Bird's Nest Custard with Aloe during the dinner buffet on 12 & 13 May 2012.
Asparagus was given the honored title "King of Vegetables". Each kind of asparagus has its unique features, For example, Thai asparagus is very tender and is thinner and smaller that it is perfect to be served with meat. Whilst Chinese Asparagus, which was introduced into China in the early 20th century, is well known for its crispy, crunchy and refreshing tastes. It is more than a vegetable as traditional Chinese herbal medicine believes asparagus has a strong healing power in treating and preventing cancers as well. Among various kinds of asparagus, white asparagus from Germany is considered as a noble and the most precious asparagus because it has the tenderest texture and the growing season is as short as 40 days. The Summer Parade of Asparagus buffet provides our guests with a rare opportunity to enjoy the numerous kinds of asparagus prepared by our famous chefs all at once.
Asparagus has a high nutritional value and is healthy to human body, as it contains a variety of vitamins and microelements, as well as high fiber, low sugar and low fat in content. It is especially suitable for urban citizens who have fast pace of life and unhealthy diet. In addition, both traditional Chinese and Western medicine confirm that asparagus can help treat cancers, heart disease and high blood pressure. Due to the complexity and long duration of cultivation, asparagus was served only among the high society, the blue blood in the past.
