SALMON YU SHENG
The kaleidoscope of colours in this Salmon Yu Sheng is a visual feast for diners. This traditional platter introduced an abundant amount of julienned carrots, radish, and cucumber drizzled with a sour plum sauce for a slightly tangy flavour and topped with thick slices of fresh Salmon.
Diners can toss your way to a prosperous new year before feasting on the extravagant buffet line-up at Spice Brasserie. Every table is entitled to a serving of Salmon Yu Sheng which is tailored to your party of family and friends.
BAKED SEA SCALLOP WITH MUSHROOM CHEESE
Served in scallop shells, these Baked Sea Scallops With Mushroom Cheese is the ultimate guilty pleasure.
Each scallop shell comes with a succulent scallop sprinkled with cheese and lightly torched before baking. As if it could not get any better, underneath each scallop lies a bed of fried vermicelli and mushrooms.
BRAISED ABALONE WITH DUCK FEET
During Chinese New Year, things are not the same without abalone on the menu. The Braised Abalone With Duck Feet features chewy abalone and duck feet on top of boiled xiao bai cai and covered in a thick braised sauce.
Without a doubt, most of us would give the duck feet a miss and head straight for the abalone. Do not be deceived by the unattractive claw for this Chinese delicacy is dripping with savoury braised sauce and the skin sports a hint of chewiness that will slide right of the bones.
BRAISED SEA CUCUMBER WITH ROASTED PORK
For the uninitiated, eating sea cucumber symbolises one looking forward to a better year ahead. On the first bite, you get an explosion of flavourful braised sauce from the gooey sea cucumber and the roasted pork boasted a slightly charred flavour. From the melt-in-your-mouth sea cucumber to the thick slices of roasted pork, this dish is a must-try.
NANAS LEMAK LOBSTER
An unusual dish to your traditional line-up of CNY delights, the Nanas Lemak Lobster adds a Peranakan twist where diners can tuck into Cuba lobsters cooked in light, slightly spicy sauce filled with aromatic spices. This dish was what we needed in between all the braised dishes to strike a nice balance of flavours.
STEAMED SEABASS FILLET WITH NYONYA SAUCE
If you are a fan of spicy food, the Steamed Seabass Fillet With Nyonya Sauce is the one for you. It may look mediocre, but the taste is phenomenal.
We loved this dish for its complex flavours and how the Nyonya sauce brings everything together. From the subtle sweetness of the Seabass to the appetising tamarind-based sauce, this dish was easily our favourite from the menu.
STIR-FRIED SEAFOOD WITH YAM BASKET
The yam basket derives its name from the Buddhist alms bowl which signifies an overflowing of fortune in Cantonese. Indeed, the Stir-Fried Seafood With Yam Basket at Spice Brasserie was overflowing with goodness.
You can expect the yam basket to be fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The added cashews gave a great crunch to the stir-fried seafood and we recommend eating everything together instead of separately as you can taste the wok hei from the seafood, nuttiness from the cashew and sweet flavour from the yam.
STEAMED LOTUS RICE WITH YAM AND CHINESE SAUSAGE
The classic Steamed Lotus Rice With Yam And Chinese Sausage needs no further introduction. Wrapped in a giant lotus leaf, the glutinous rice is brimming with Chinese delicacies such as shiitake mushrooms, yam, and Chinese sausages. Besides the different textures and flavours from the various ingredients, the rice is infused with the aromatic flavour of lotus leaf upon steaming the dish.
TRADITIONAL NIAN GAO WITH PEANUTS
Unlike your usual nian gao that comes plain or deep-fried in batter, this version resembles muah chee. Instead of slices or chunks, the nian gao is snipped into bite-sized pieces and coated with a generous amount of peanut shavings. We have to admit that this was quite an innovative spin on nian gao.
