A few months ago (March 2014), FEAST by EAST Hotel in Lido hosted by BJ FOoDiEs culinary charity group for the launch of their new Carnivore Club concept. Headed by Executive Chef Rob Cunningham (former chef of Capital M), the restaurant’s goal for this regular Carnivore’s Club is to increase awareness of secondary cuts and offal that restaurants no longer commonly use.
“To me, the Carnivore’s Club is what cooking is about – nurturing and brining out the best in all the secondary cuts of meat and offal. It takes me back to my childhood growing up on a farm in Victoria, Australia – when we killed a beast (sheep, pig, cattle), we used every single part of the animal. Here in China, no part of the animal is not eaten and I love that about Chinese cuisine.” – Rob Cunningham, Executive Chef of FEAST

Held about 3 times a year, Rob’s culinary team continues to bring back all parts of the animal that people no longer consume on a regular basis.
After a round of serving uncommonly seen parts of beef, this time around they will be exploring the different types of pork.
“For me the pig is my favorite meat, growing up on a pig farm tends to mean that you eat a lot of pork. So you either love it or hate it, I love it. The fun part of this menu is combining Yao Yangs Chinese ideas with a little twist from the two of us.”
Teaming up with Chef Yao Yang from Chi Restaurant and Saffron Italian Restaurant (both just across from each other on Wudaoying Hutong, around the corner from Stuff’d), they have both combined forces to put together a “Best of Pork” Menu complete with roasted pork belly, pig’s ear and braised pork neck.
