Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant (萬豪軒) @ Marrott Tang Plaza Singapore - Indulge in New Seasonal Menu of Lobster & Sri Lankan Crab Delicacies Till 31 Dec 2025

Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant presents an exciting new seasonal menu that spotlights rock lobsters from Western Australia and prized Sri Lankan crabs.

Available now through 31 December 2025, the menu features eleven exquisite lobster and crab creations, all infused with refined Cantonese flair. Diners can look forward to both Dim Sum and À La Carte selections, with the Dim Sum items available exclusively during lunch.

Soup of the Day 4/5

We started with the Soup of the Day, a warm, soothing bowl of Pumpkin Pork Ribs Soup. The broth was flavourful and naturally sweet from the pumpkin and red dates.

Minced Lobster Dumpling with Gold Leaf 4/5

The first Dim Sum dish, Minced Lobster Dumpling with Gold Leaf ($18/2 pcs), featured plump lobster meat wrapped in a thin, slightly chewy skin.

Lobster Siew Mai with Crab Roe and Minced Pork 4/5

Next came the Lobster Siew Mai with Crab Roe and Minced Pork ($18/2 pcs), an indulgent mouthful of tender lobster and savoury minced pork.

Crispy Crab Meat Puff with Glass Noodles and Chinese Parsley 4.2/5

Our favourite among the three Dim Sum we had was the Crispy Crab Meat Puff with Glass Noodles and Chinese Parsley ($16/2 pcs). The golden, flaky pastry was wonderfully crisp, encasing moist crab meat and springy noodles for a satisfying textural contrast. Other Dim Sum highlights include the Deep-Fried Lobster with Century Egg Sesame Roll ($16/2 pcs) and the Crispy Vermicelli Lobster Roll wrapped with Beetroot Rice Noodle and Superior Light Soy Sauce ($28/2 pcs).

Sautéed Minced Lobster Meat with Shrimp Roe, Egg White and Diced Asparagus Lettuce 4.5/5

Moving to mains, I thoroughly enjoyed the Sautéed Minced Lobster Meat with Shrimp Roe, Egg White and Diced Asparagus Lettuce ($48/portion). Lightly seasoned to highlight the lobster’s natural sweetness, it was elevated by the briny aroma of shrimp roe and the crunch of asparagus lettuce.

Baked Crab in Foie Gras and White Pepper Sauce 4.2/5

The Baked Crab in Foie Gras and White Pepper Sauce ($18.80/100g) offered a bold yet balanced pairing. The lightly spiced, peppery sauce complemented the fresh crab’s sweetness, while the foie gras added richness and depth.

Wok-Fried Lobster with Onion in Green Peppercorn Sauce 4.5/5

Our top pick was the Wok-Fried Lobster with Onion in Green Peppercorn Sauce ($18.80/100g). Each lobster piece was fresh and succulent, wok-fried to perfection, and coated in a fragrant green peppercorn sauce that lent mild heat and herbaceous notes. Other dishes from the À La Carte menu include the Poached Sliced Pacific Top Shell with Asparagus Lettuce in Hairy Crab Meat and Roe Sauce ($48/portion), Stewed Lobster with Dried Hong Kong Cuttlefish, Thai Basil and Shallot in Claypot ($25/100g), and Wok-Fried Lobster with Japanese Glutinous Rice infused with Dried Squid and Dried Shrimp ($25/100g).

Double-Boiled Bird’s Nest with Red Date, Lotus Seed and White Fungus 4/5

We ended with the Double-Boiled Bird’s Nest with Red Date, Lotus Seed and White Fungus, a nourishing sweet dessert that rounded off the indulgent seafood feast.

Man Fu Yuan @ InterContinental Singapore - A Refreshed Cantonese Journey by Chef Aaron Tan

Man Fu Yuan at InterContinental Singapore introduces a refreshed dining experience that honours the refined legacy of Cantonese cuisine while embracing modern expressions under the vision of Executive Chinese Chef Aaron Tan. Inspired by his travels across Asia, Chef Aaron presents reimagined dishes that celebrate the roots of Cantonese flavours while catering to the evolving tastes of today’s diners.

Classic Cantonese Roasted Iberico Pork Collar with Caviar 4.5/5

Chilled Crab Meat with Crab Roe 4.2/5

Spinach Prawn Dumpling with Black Truffle 4.5/5

Deep-fried Fanny Bay Oyster with Crispy Garlic and Dried Chilli 4.2/5

An elevated rendition of Man Fu Yuan's signature starter, the Chef Combination 2.0 ($38) brings together elements from dim sum, cold kitchen, hot kitchen and barbecue in one elegant presentation. Each component tells its own story. The Chilled Crab Meat with Crab Roe showcases the natural sweetness of fresh crab, complemented by the richness of the roe. Meanwhile, the Classic Cantonese Roasted Iberico Pork Collar with Caviar layers smoky, tender pork with the briny pop of caviar, adding a luxurious twist to a Cantonese favourite. The Deep-fried Fanny Bay Oyster with Crispy Garlic and Dried Chilli delivers a bold interplay of textures and spice, echoing the essence of wok hei with a refined finish. Completing the quartet, the Spinach Prawn Dumpling with Black Truffle reimagines the classic har gow, its silky wrapper encasing sweet prawn accented by earthy truffle. Together, the platter invites diners to rediscover the breadth of Cantonese cuisine, showcasing Chef Aaron's ability to honour tradition while presenting it through a modern, elevated lens.

Poached Red Grouper Fillet in Superior Fish Broth 4.8/5

The Poached Red Grouper Fillet in Superior Fish Broth (market price) is a comforting highlight of the new menu. The tender grouper is poached to perfection in a nourishing broth infused with dang gui and goji berries, then elevated with the aroma of 15-year aged Hua Tiao wine.

Oven-baked Rock Lobster 4.5/5

A modern homage to the nostalgic 1990s Cantonese banquet favourite, the Oven-baked Rock Lobster ($52) is lightly fried before being baked with salted egg yolk sauce, cheese and Thai honey pineapple. The result is a dish that balances sweetness, richness and creamy indulgence while staying rooted in Cantonese flavours.

Flambe Live Prawn with Ginger, Scallion and Singapore White Pepper Sauce 5/5

The Flambe Live Prawn with Ginger, Scallion and Singapore White Pepper Sauce is a showstopper. The sweet, firm prawn is complemented by a pungent, aromatic white pepper sauce, which is the soul of the dish, heightened by the theatrical flambé, which deepens its flavours and aroma.

Crispy Sea Cucumber, Preserved Leek, Minced Pork Sauce, Hong Kong Vegetables 4/5

The Crispy Sea Cucumber is given a crisp coating for contrast, paired with a savoury minced pork sauce reminiscent of mapo tofu. It is a clever play of textures that anchors the dish with bold flavours.

Yellow Chicken 4.5/5

Cooked in a claypot with a medley of aromatics, the Yellow Chicken is tender, juicy and infused with the fragrance of sand ginger, garlic and scallions. It is a comforting crowd-pleaser.

Flambe Roasted Angus Beef Tomahawk with Mongolian Sauce and Spices 4.2/5

Designed for sharing, the Flambe Roasted Angus Beef Tomahawk with Mongolian Sauce and Spices ($188) is first deep-fried to awaken its aroma before being flambéed tableside in a dramatic display. While Western in appearance, the preparation is rooted in Cantonese technique, tied together with a fragrant Mongolian sauce that enhances the celebratory spirit of the dish.

Chilled Soya Milk with Egg White, Bird's Nest, Lotus Seeds, Peach Collagen 4.8/5

The Chilled Soya Milk with Egg White, Bird's Nest, Lotus Seeds, and Peach Collagen brings the experience to a refreshing close. Smooth, silky soya milk is elevated with bird's nest, lotus seeds and peach collagen, offering both luxury and textural finesse.

Man Fu Yuan’s refreshed menu is a thoughtful marriage of heritage and innovation. Chef Aaron Tan honours the finesse of Cantonese cuisine while introducing reimagined expressions that captivate both palate and eye. From nourishing broths to flambéed showpieces, each dish reflects a respect for tradition, elevated with modern sophistication.

Caviar, Black Truffle, Golden Croaker and Tofu 5/5

The meal opens with a show-stopping quartet. A tin of Kaluga Caviar, paired with a mother-of-pearl spoon, reveals a layer of Homemade Tofu and Putian Fujian Premium Seaweed beneath, a rare seasonal ingredient harvested by hand and prized for its umami sweetness. Next, a jet-black orb that appears to be a whole truffle is in fact deep-fried Black Truffle Tofu. It is crisp on the outside, silky within. Completing the ensemble is a Longjing tea-smoked Wild Golden Croaker, delivering a delicate smokiness and a lingering fragrance of fine tea.

Double-boiled Sea Cucumber in Enriched Fish Broth, Pickled Plum, Tomato 4.8/5

The Double-boiled Sea Cucumber in a refined fish broth with Chaoshan pickled plum and tomato is a masterclass in restraint. It is light yet layered, with savoury, umami, and tangy notes dancing delicately on the palate.

Braised Fish Maw in Noble ‘Tanfu’ Broth, Fine Chopped Coriander 4.5/5

In contrast, the Braised Fish Maw in Noble 'Tanfu' Broth is bold and textural. The viscous, collagen-rich soup is packed with silky fish maw strips, beautifully rounded off with fresh coriander.

Braised Wild Golden Croaker, Fresh Bean Curd Sheet, Iceberg Lettuce 4.2/5

Chef Dicky transports diners to 1980s Hong Kong with this nostalgic Cantonese classic. Simmered in an intensely flavoured chicken consommé, the Braised Wild Golden Croaker is buttery and soft, nestled on fresh bean curd sheets and iceberg lettuce. The sauce alone deserves its own spotlight, perfect with a bowl of steamed white rice.

Sweet and Sour Lion's Mane Mushrooms 4.2/5

A delightful vegetarian take on the classic sweet and sour pork. Meaty Lion’s Mane Mushrooms are enveloped in a light batter, fried to perfection, and tossed in a well-balanced sweet and sour sauce that’s sticky, tangy, and deeply satisfying.

Claypot Foie Gras Fried Rice, Saga-gyu, Black Pepper, Cramelized Soy Sauce 4.2/5

The Claypot Foie Gras Fried Rice is a triumph of texture and flavour, smoky from caramelised soy sauce, buttery with Saga-gyu, and deeply savoury from cubes of foie gras. The pièce de résistance? Crispy scorched rice at the bottom of the pot.

Sauerkraut Consomme Braised Vermicelli 4.2/5

The humble-looking Sauerkraut Consomme Braised Vermicelli hides a powerhouse of flavour. Made with springy noodles from Hsinchu, Taiwan, and braised in a tangy, spicy sauerkraut consommé, this dish surprises with its rich infusion, complemented by sweet king prawns, scallops, and slivers of Chinese celery.

Pumpkin and Jasmine Pudding, Black Rice Syrup, Coconut Milk 4/5

Shaped like a golden peony, the Pumpkin and Jasmine Pudding is surrounded at the table with a moat of black rice syrup and coconut milk – reminiscent of bubur pulut hitam, reimagined with floral, delicate elegance.

Creamy Strawberry, Lychee, Raspberry Crisp, Rose Cookie 4.5/5

Inspired by Pierre Hermé’s Ispahan, this dreamy dessert layers Strawberry Cream, Lychee, Raspberry Crisps, and Rose Cookie crumble, a French-Asian hybrid that’s as intricate as it is indulgent.

Cave Bird's Nest in Tung Lok's Ruby Peach Tea Syrup, Kiwi Jelly, Fresh Fox Nuts 4.2/5

A visual marvel, the Cave Bird's Nest dessert features green kiwi jellies, fox nuts, and microgreens, bathed in ruby peach tea syrup. It’s like tasting a painting by Monet.

Double-boiled Egg Custard in Young Coconut, Cave Bird's Nest, Gula Apong 5/5

The Double-boiled Egg Custard in Young Coconut comprises of snow-white egg custard, steamed in a young coconut and topped with Cave Bird’s Nest and Gula Apong from Sarawak, is delicate, comforting, and luxuriously sweet with a hint of smokiness.

Chef Dicky’s menus at Tóng Lè Private Dining elevate Chinese cuisine to a new pinnacle – not just with premium ingredients, but through stories, textures, and deep respect for culinary heritage.

Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant (萬豪軒) @ Marrott Tang Plaza Singapore - Savour Newly Curated Six-Course Roast Irish Peking Duck Set Till End April 2025

Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant’s Roast Irish Peking Duck has long been a diner favourite for its tender meat and crisp, golden skin. This time, the restaurant presents a limited-time Roast Irish Peking Duck Set, available until 30 April 2025.

The six-course set menu requires a minimum of four diners and costs $128.80++ per person ($118.80++ for in-house guests and Marriott Bonvoy members). While we sampled a portion for two, a full set for four includes half an Irish duck.

Imperial Roast Irish Peking Duck with Chinese Crêpe 4.5/5

The meal begins with the Imperial Roast Irish Peking Duck with Chinese Crêpe, a classic pairing of thin crêpe, duck skin, julienned cucumber, and scallions. This was executed perfectly. We especially loved how the duck skin had a good thickness to it, yet remained so crisp.

Fortune Eight Treasures Broth 4/5

Next, the Fortune Eight Treasures Broth, a Szechuan-style hot and sour soup, surprised us with its gentle heat. Ingredients like fish maw, sea cucumber, and duck meat added texture, though we wished the duck flavour stood out more.

Baked Grouper Fillet with Cured Duck Meat and Black Bean Sauce 4.2/5

The Baked Grouper Fillet with Cured Duck Meat and Black Bean Sauce arrived in a stone pot, keeping it piping hot. The thick, tender fillets were infused with savoury black bean sauce and bits of cured duck meat, enhanced by fragrant leeks.

Stewed Scampi Prawn with Spicy Light Soy Sauce 4.2/5

The Stewed Scampi Prawn with Spicy Light Soy Sauce was next. The meaty and chunky prawn had a delightful crunch, coated in a mildly spicy, sweet glaze.

Braised African 5-Head Abalone with Irish Duck Meat in Wok-Fried Japanese Pearl Rice 4/5

The final savoury dish was the Braised African 5-Head Abalone with Irish Duck Meat, Diced Vegetables, and Crispy Conpoy in Wok-Fried Japanese Pearl Rice. The rice had a beautiful hint of wok hei aroma and was well-textured, though I personally preferred it on its own without the abalone sauce.

Double-Boiled Bird's Nest with Coconut Milk and Egg 4.2/5

Dessert was the Double-Boiled Bird's Nest with Coconut Milk and Egg. It featured a smooth, custard-like base reminiscent of a coconut egg tart filling. It was a soothing finish to the meal and was lightly sweet and generously topped with bird's nest.
