Chinese New Year is a time of celebration and reunion over great feasts. This year, herald the Year of the Dog at InterContinental Singapore’s fine Chinese restaurant Man Fu Yuan, where executive chef Eric Neo has crafted five special menus for the festivities.
The prix-fixe menus range from five to eight courses that feature lavish creations by the chef, including this year’s Prosperity Yu Sheng with Hokkaido scallops, salmon sashimi and a delicious sake goma sesame dressing. The indulgent Fortune menu comes with the Treasures Yu Sheng which has the luxe addition of baby abalone.
It would be remiss not to include the traditional pen cai in any Chinese New Year menu. Historically served to the Emperor in Ancient China, eating pen cai signifies abundance for the coming year. The Man Fu Yuan Abundance Treasure Pot is braised with 18 prized delicacies including spiky sea cucumber with minced pork and prawns, Hokkaido scallops, 10-head whole abalone, prawns and lobster.
The restaurant’s Signature Chinese Tea-smoked Duck with Dang Gui, Braised Bird’s Nest Soup with Deer Antlers and Whole Suckling Pig are some of the other highlights in the set menus. For a sweet ending, the chef has done something really special with the ubiquitous nian gao for dessert. The glutinous rice cake is layered between pastry dough and fried till crispy and flaky, encasing sweet and sticky rice cake.
The Chinese New Year menus are available until 2 March 2018.
