Reunion feasts at Mandarin Orchard

WHETHER you prefer the experience of dining out or staying home as you welcome in the Year of the Ox, Mandarin Orchard has a comprehensive line up of set menus and takeaways to suit your needs.

At the two Michelin-starred Shisen Hanten, indulge in chef Chen Kentaro's bespoke epicurean set menus - from the eight-course Prosperity menu at S$138++ per person for a minimum of two diners, to the nine-course Majestic menu at S$298++ per person for a minimum of six persons. Chef Kentaro has put together a luxurious lineup that includes Braised Bird's Nest with Crab Meat and Crab Roe in Superior Broth, Barbecued Boneless Suckling Pig, and Sautéed Half-lobster in Yuzu Butter Sauce.

He's also added some original creations such as Poached Dumpling stuffed with Minced Kurobuta Pork and Porcini Mushroom - naturally coloured a festive red with red yeast rice flour. Also new is the Double-boiled Chicken Consomme made with greater burdock, baby abalone, dried scallops and red dates for a nourishing brew. For spice lovers, there's fork-tender Stewed Mala Beef Brisket and Tendon in Claypot.
