Celebrate The Year of the Monkey at Conrad Centennial Singapore

From January 20, 2016, guests can delight in Conrad Centennial Singapore‟s Lunar New Year ‟Prosperity‟ specials, which are available both dine-in and takeaway. Executive Chinese Chef Ku Keung of award-winning Golden Peony whips up his signature dishes with finishing touches heralding the ‘red fiery’ monkey. In the spirit of the new year, Oscar‟s will be opened round-the-clock offering supper treats of local flair, including claypot noodles and traditional Chinese congee. Guests can also opt for “takeaway treasures” in the form of hampers consisting of traditional Chinese goodies that represent abundance and good fortune.

The Fortune ‘Yu Sheng’ (鸿运当头) specially created by Executive Chinese Chef Ku Keung comes with Abalone, Crispy Fish Skin and Crispy White Bait. Prepared using the key ingredient Hiramasa 嘻啦玛莎, also known as yellowtail amberjack, is this seasonal superior grade sashimi for its firm, pale pink flesh and a sweet, rich flavour.

Topped with my favourite crispy fish skin and white bait, it creates an unique textural twist to this classic dish.

The pretty ‘mess’ we created hahaha~ quite nicely mixed right? 🙂

and here’s a LIVE video of our lo hei process!

Another interesting and creative dish created by Chef Ku is the Crispy Filo Swan filled with Foie Gras, Truffle and Minced Chicken (天降横财)菘露鹅肝鸡茸天鹅酥. It is not only flavourful but also a feast to the eyes as it is very delicately made. One of my favourite dish for the night.

Other interesting dishes such as the Canadian Sea Perch Roll filled with Lobster, Fish Roe in Spinach Purée (财源滚滚)菠菜汁龙珠球 and Braised ‘Monkey Head’ Mushroom (福寿绵绵) 红焖猴头菇 are equally satisfying as well.

The last dish for the night before our dessert is another new and innovative dishes by Chef Ku. Roast Suckling Pig stuffed with Hainanese Chicken Rice (金猪报喜)沙皮海南乳猪.

Get ready to tuck into succulent chicken meat and fragrant rice, laced in light crispy skin that guarantees a crackle with every bite!
