True Indulgence: 7 Lunar New Year Festive Feasting Highlights

Foodies, a sumptuous feast awaits this Lunar New Year at Resorts World Sentosa.

Chinese New Year is nothing without culinary extravagance and Resorts World Sentosa is priming up for a bash to serve up not just fine dining renditions of seasonal favourites but also bringing in a whopping 8,888 lobsters across its multitude of restaurants.

Dig into a wide-variety of scrumptious offerings from yusheng at one-Michelin-starred Forest森 to a piping hot Cantonese style lobster congee at the first ever supper club. Sounds delicious? Here are the highlights.

Yusheng Must-Haves
Local Celebrity Chef Sam Leong’s one-Michelin-starred restaurant Forest森 will be serving up a feast for the palate as much as it is for the eyes. Go for a classic and order up the signature salmon yu sheng which comes with a refreshing array of fruit like melons, apples and pomelo offset with crispy whitebait and brought together with a burst of citrus from the yuzu dressing.

Over at Michelin Guide-listed Feng Shui Inn, three different types of yusheng dishes are on hand. Choose the Longevity “Lo Hei” with tuna sashimi, quail eggs, black truffle and caviar or the fortune salmon “Lo Hei” with sweet corn if you’re health conscious. Those feeling a little more adventurous can also opt for the sweet and savoury ikan parang “Lo Hei” with sweet corn and Spanish ham.

Yusheng at both restaurants will be available from 13 January to 11 February 2017.

True luxury at Forest森
Few celebratory meals can rival what chef Sam Leong has in store at Forest森. At $888 per person, diners will be treated to a six course "Luxury Celebration" dinner set menu that will see only the most extravagant ingredients taking pride of place on the table. Think along the lines of Krystal caviar, geoduck clams and lobster in yusheng as well as charcoal grilled Kagoshima wagyu striploin topped with foie gras. Other highlights include the five-course set lunches that includes homemade tofu with prawn paste and salted egg yolk as well as the wok-fried fish noodles with crab meat and XO chilli sauce.

Set menus at Forest森 run from 13 January to 11 February 2017.

Cantonese Classics at Feng Shui Inn
When it comes to set menus, Feng Shui Inn stays true to its classic Cantonese roots. Go light and order the six course health and longevity set which comes with selections like double boiled pearl clam soup with snow pear and cordyceps as well as the braised German pork knuckle with foie gras. Those with a bigger appetite can dine on the eight course golden prosperity set menu which boasts both luxurious and auspicious creations. Think along the lines of braised six head fresh abalone with Japanese mushrooms and double boiled imperial fish maw with huai shan and lotus seeds.

Set menus at Feng Shui Inn run from 13 January to 11 February 2017.

Lobster Mania
If you’re not quite up for fine dining Chinese cuisine, the lobster promotion at RWS’ other restaurants might still whet your appetite. After all, there’s 8,888 of these succulent crustaceans spread across six establishments. At one-Michelin-starred Osia Steak and Seafood Grill, chef Douglas Tay is whipping up a grilled Boston lobster dish as part of a dinner sharing menu that includes other grilled items like succulent grass fed lamb rump and Berkshire pork rack. Over at Syun, chef Hal Yamashita showcases a light and creamy lobster gratin while those who prefer the serene surrounds of nature will be right at home at Tangerine tucking into a comforting pot of lobster broth.

The lobster bonanza is on from 27 January to 11 February 2017.
