Lotte Hotels & Resorts launches Hong Kong-inspired autumn Chinese dining series

Lotte Hotels & Resorts announced Monday the launch of "Manchumisik," an integrated Chinese course menu promotion for the autumn season.

The promotion runs from Sunday through Nov. 30 at four venues: Signiel Busan's Chaoran, The Grand Lotte Seoul's Dorim, Lotte Hotel World's Dorim The Canton Table and Lotte Hotel Busan's Dorim.

Manchumisik is Lotte Hotels & Resorts' signature annual autumn Chinese dining promotion. This year's edition draws inspiration from Hong Kong's local food culture, centering on Cantonese cuisine. Chinese cuisine chefs who participated in the company's role-based global benchmarking program traveled to Hong Kong to study local dining trends, ingredients and cooking techniques, then combined that knowledge with the expertise of each hotel's Chinese restaurant chefs to complete the course.

The menu opens with a seafood appetizer with caviar, followed by sea cucumber spring rolls in a ginger-scallion sauce and lobster in crab roe sauce, alongside abalone and premium seasonal vegetables. A standout dish is a Hanwoo tenderloin steak paired with a seasonal chestnut mousse and finished with the aroma of baijiu, a traditional Chinese distilled spirit.

The meal course includes a sea cucumber rice bowl, with dessert offerings of osmanthus jelly and simi lu, a Hong Kong-style dessert.

"Manchumisik is a special course that combines culinary inspiration drawn from Hong Kong with the long experience and expertise of Lotte Hotel's Chinese cuisine chefs," a Lotte Hotels & Resorts official said.
