As the Chinese New Year (CNY) approaches, food takes center stage in celebrating the season of togetherness, prosperity, and new beginnings. Across the city, top hotels and restaurants are preparing a variety of dining options for families to enjoy reunion dinners and partake in the beloved tradition of yee sang. Here’s a roundup of the best culinary experiences to kick off the Year of the Snake.

St. Regis Kuala Lumpur

At St. Regis Kuala Lumpur, the hotel blends the elegance of Chinese traditions with the art of tea culture this CNY. Guests can begin their celebrations with a Premium Yee Sang, a dish made from a recipe passed down through generations from Puan Sri Sharon Chua’s ancestral kitchen. The yee sang features fresh fruits and vegetables, nuts, seeds, and a special sauce, with options such as abalone & jellyfish, yellowtail hamachi & jellyfish, salmon & jellyfish, or vegetarian mixed nuts. Prices start at RM205+ per set, available until February 12.

For a more elaborate experience, the hotel offers a Prosperity Set Menu created by Executive Chinese Chef Cheong Boon Fei. The menu is available at The Brasserie or in private dining rooms, where flexible layouts accommodate groups of 8 to 50. The set menu, which includes a Longevity Vegetarian Set, starts from RM432+ per person and is available until February 12.

Sunway Resort Hotel

On January 28, Sunway Resort Hotel will host a one-night-only reunion dinner in the Grand Ballroom, offering a luxurious celebration steeped in tradition. The event will begin with a fresh Norwegian salmon and snow pear yee sang, symbolizing unity and prosperity. A new highlight, the Sea Moss Abalone En Croute, featuring abalone encased in a truffle-infused flaky crust, will be the main attraction, complemented by dishes like steamed whole mangrove jack snapper and lobster bisque with crispy rice. The eight-course dinner is priced at RM1,728+ for six people or RM2,688+ for ten people.

For those looking for a more casual yet equally festive gathering, the CNY Dinner Set Menu at Sunset Terrace offers a spectacular eight-course meal with stunning views of Sunway City Kuala Lumpur. Available from January 15 to February 12, the set includes the Sea Moss Abalone En Croute, Typhoon Shelter Tiger Prawns, and steamed barramundi fillet, priced at RM2,688+ per table of ten.

Element Kuala Lumpur

Element Kuala Lumpur presents a range of festive culinary offerings across its high-floor venues. Executive Chinese Chef Linus Mak has created a unique Prosperous Yee Sang featuring a pineapple dressing, providing a tangy-sweet twist to the traditional dish. The platter includes fresh fruits and vegetables such as mango, jackfruit, and rose apple, topped with options like raw salmon, crispy fish skins, or whole abalones. This yee sang is available for both dine-in and takeaway at Trace Restaurant & Bar.

In addition to the yee sang, Element offers private Reunion Set Menus, featuring a variety of chicken, fish, and prawn dishes, alongside fusion-style vegetable preparations. Standout items include double-boiled chicken consomme, chicken roulade with homemade green pesto sauce, and wok-fried tiger prawn with golden cereal and truffle. The Prosperous Set Menu, priced at RM2,388+ per table of ten, requires a minimum booking of three tables.

Oversea Restaurant

For those seeking Cantonese cuisine with a modern twist, Oversea Restaurant offers festive dining options that celebrate the flavors of the season. Their Fabulous Fruity Yee Sang is served with a dragon fruit sauce, while more traditional variations feature smoked salmon or abalone. For a more luxurious touch, diners can opt for yee sang with abalone and black truffle, starting at RM78++.

The Prosperity Treasure Pot (poon choi), a symbol of abundance, features premium items such as Cantonese roast duck, Iberico pork ball, and dried seafood like abalone and Japanese dried scallops. Priced at RM688++ for six people, this dish is ideal for sharing during reunion parties. Additionally, the Hong Kong-style claypot waxed meat rice, available in portions for six or ten people, is a comforting dish of fragrant rice and three types of waxed meat, priced at RM138++ for six people and RM168++ for ten. Oversea’s festive offerings are available until the end of CNY at their various outlets.

Conclusion

Whether it’s a lavish family reunion or a more intimate gathering with friends, the Chinese New Year celebrations wouldn’t be complete without a feast.

As you gather with loved ones this CNY, indulge in a table full of delicacies and enjoy the spirit of unity and prosperity.
