Hi Huneybees,
It's mid-January and very fast it's time for the festive Lunar New Year celebrations. If you are looking for somewhere to have Lo Hei gathering with your family and friends or even company colleagues to usher in good luck for the Year of the Dog, why not do it at Swissôtel Merchant Court?
From 5 February - 2 March 2018, Ellenborough Market Café is bringing us delectable Prosperity Set Menus for a table of 10. There's a great variety of delicious auspicious dishes such as Double-boiled Fish Maw with Dried Scallop and Cordycep Flower, Imperial Herbal Chicken, Wok-Fried Asparagus with Pearl Scallop in XO Sauce, etc.
You can choose to have either Menu A (Priced at S$788++ per table of 10) or Menu B (Priced at S$988.00++ per table of 10).
Menu A
- Salmon Yu Sheng
- Double-boiled Fish Maw with Dried Scallop and Cordycep Flower
- Imperial Herbal Chicken
- Hong Kong Style Fried Garoupa
- Wok-fried Asparagus with Pearl Scallop in XO Sauce
- Fried Glutinous Rice Wrapped in Lotus Leaf
- Double-boiled ‘Hasma” with Red Dates
Menu B
- Salmon Yu Sheng
- Double-boiled Fish Maw with Dried Scallop and Cordycep Flower
- Imperial Herbal Chicken
- Hong Kong Style Fried Garoupa
- Wok-fried Asparagus with Pearl Scallop in XO Sauce
- Fried Glutinous Rice Wrapped in Lotus Leaf
- Braised Abalone and Sea Cucumber with Australian Broccoli
- Double-boiled ‘Hasma” with Red Dates
Both menus start off with Salmon Yu Sheng Lo Hei and what's special is that the restaurant has the ingredients decoratively placed them into dog designs to celebrate the Year of the Dog. The designs are created by the chefs and each table will get different designs, they are all so adorable, I really can't bear to mess it up though...
There were a few dishes that left an impression on me and I think it's a flavor that you can't find in other restaurants. As the ingredients are all super fresh, the foodie in me couldn't stop digging into these dishes since they remind me a lot of the dishes mum cooks every Lunar New Year.
If you have a smaller group and wanna try something different for Lunar New Year, there's also the Prosperity Buffet where you can enjoy some traditional Lunar New Year dishes alongside the Ellenborough Market Café's popular Peranakan Cuisine.
PROSPERITY BUFFET
Lunch: $68++ per adult, $34++ per child
Dinner: $80++ per adult, $40++ per child
The above prices include a platter of Yu Sheng per table.
Roast Duck and Roast Pork Belly are available for dinner only at the Roast Station.
You can top up $28++ and enjoy an additional serving of sliced abalone with your Yu Sheng
Their Buffet also offers delicious tender Chicken, Char Siew, Duck and Pork Belly from our Roast Station and culinary treasures such as Hong Kong Style Steamed Garoupa, Stir-fried Asparagus with Scallop in XO Sauce and Stewed Dried Oyster with Black Moss in Tianjin Cabbage. There is also Peranakan cuisine such as Ayam Buah Keluak, Wok-Fried Slipper Lobster in Black Bean Sauce. Not forgetting my all-time favourite, Durian Pengat. There are also festive goodies, from delectable Pineapple Tarts to sweet treats such as Love Letters, Kueh Bangkit, Kueh Bahulu and Mandarin Orange Pound Cake.
