Cook a Romantic Valentine’s Day Dinner with Three Butchers Hong Kong


Valentine’s Day is approaching fast! A romantic dinner for two at an expensive restaurant may be the typical Valentine’s Day date, but why not make it extra special by cooking a home-cooked meal from the heart from you and your sweetie? With delicious, high quality meat from Three Butchers Hong Kong, your private dinner for two will truly come from the heart. Try this delicious roasted beef rib eye recipe that Three Butchers Hong Kong found just in time for Valentine’s Day.



First, preheat your oven to 200 C. Tie your fresh beef from Three Butchers Hong Kong with individual pieces of string every 5 centimeters. Brush the beef lightly with oil and sear it on all sides over medium-high heat until evenly browned. Season the beef with pepper and salt and rub fresh thyme and sage over it. Tuck a few sage leaves under the string for taste.

Next, place the seasoned beef on a rack in a roasting dish. Add about ½ a cup of water to the roasting dish to keep it juicy. Roast for 60 minutes if you like your beef rare, 75 minutes for medium beef, or 90 minutes for well-done. Use a meat thermometer to double check your roasting time as different ovens will vary in cooking temperature and length.

Remove the roast from the oven, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 20 minutes before carving. This will let all the juices and flavors really soak in. Carve up your delicious roast beef meal and serve along side some roasted vegetables from your local market and a glass of your favourite red wine.

The Best Valentine’s Gift Choices At Edible Arrangements HK



These days, a lot of people in Hong Kong can most probably agree on one thing: celebrating Valentine’s Day can either be romantic or awkward. Romantic when you already have a special someone and awkward if you’ve been single for quite a while and have yet to find a life partner. Add that to the fact that life in Hong Kong can be so busy, can demand so much of one’s time and makes the possibility of finding love and romance difficult.
Truth be told, however, Valentine’s Day is really not just for couples. It’s for singles, too! It’s for parents and their children, for best friends, for high school buddies, for co-workers. So don’t be afraid to celebrate the Day of Hearts even though you have yet to find your Prince or Princess. Celebrate it with the help of Edible Arrangements Hong Kong, the store where you can find the freshest fruits delicately shaped and artistically arranged into beautiful bouquets.
For singles who want to let their other single friends know that they’re remembered on Valentine’s Day or for parents who want to remind their children that they’re just a phone call away, the Lovely Berry Chocolate Bouquet™ is a winner. It’s a fruit bouquet that’s bursting with love!

 
Now if you’re looking for a great Valentine’s Day gift for just about anyone, get the 12 Pcs Swizzle Berries™ - Semisweet Chocolate Box. It’s perfect as a “just because” gift or even as a gift for all of you co-workers.

 
So as you can see, Valentine’s Day need not be just for couples. It also does not need to be a tiring affair. With Edible Arrangements Hong Kong’s mouthwatering, eye candy fruit bouquets, Valentine’s Day will even be a day that you’ll look forward to every year.

Business Tips: How To Plan Ahead Your Company's Chinese New Year in HK



Chinese New Year 2014 in Hong Kong is fast approaching. Just think of this scenario: so many Chinese (and all others who also observe what they call the Lantern Festival) taking time off work and a lot of factories and businesses are closed including production, shipping and deliveries for about 15 long days. Not to mention the countless activities, family parties and cultural festivities! Is your company ready for this? Have you thought of how you can still protect your business and clients in Hong Kong as well as meet deliverables amid the Chinese New Year celebration? You must plan ahead. Here are some tips from Business Registration Hong Kong on how you can do it.

The Chinese New Year is based on the Lunar calendar so make sure that you have the dates of this year’s celebration right. Take note of the first day of the first month and the 15th day (the culmination). In Hong Kong, most government offices, public utilities as well as banks will be closed from January 31 to February 3, 2014. These are public holidays in Hong Kong.

Plan deliveries. Orders placed before, during or about a day or two after the Chinese New Year could be delayed so make sure that your customers understand the repercussions.


If you’re involved in the food industry or if you operate a mall, you may need to extend your service hours. Not only do Hong Kong residents expect this but tourists who come to HK for the Lunar Festival do as well.

Moreover, be ready to address the possibility that some of your workers may not come back or may ask for a wage increase. This holds particularly true especially for factories that employ many migrant workers. Because they require extra time and effort to go travel back to their families, they may no longer go back and work, unless perhaps you offer extra incentives. You should also be ready to be able to hire and train new staff, just in case some of your old, regular employees do not come back.

On a brighter note, it’s Chinese New Year! So you may also want to organize a party for your company and your employees. This is a very special and important festival for the Chinese and the perfect time for you to also join in the merriment. There are a lot of Hong Kong restaurants and hotels that you could tap for this.
