CHINESE NEW YEAR CELEBRATIONS DON’T stop at just a sumptuous reunion dinner at Mandarin Oriental Singapore. To welcome the Year of the Rabbit, the hotel has curated a range of activities that include a cycling escapade through Marina Bay, a feast of Cantonese delicacies at Cherry Garden, an abundance of takeaway goodies and a rejuvenating wellness experience at The Spa.

Auspicious reunion dinners

With five unique renditions of yusheng to choose from at Cherry Garden restaurant, there’s lots of luck to toss for this Chinese New Year. There’s something for all tastes from the classic Prosperity Yusheng with arctic clam, salmon and crispy fish skin, to the opulent Triumph Yusheng which comes topped with luxurious caviar, black truffle, sweet shrimp and salmon.
