Crown Prince Kitchenette, located at United Square, is opened by a team of Malaysian Tze Char chefs, woking up an array of authentic Malaysian Tze Char and Chinese cuisine. To welcome the Year of the Rabbit, Crown Prince Kitchenette has put together two set menus catering for group size 5 and 8.
Fortune Abalone Yusheng 3/5
A tradition to kickstart all Lunar New Year meals is the Lo Hei, Diners gathered around the table tossing to a year of prosperity and abundance. Catering for the occasion, Crown Prince Kitchenette has put together the Fortune Abalone Yusheng ($39.80/$69.80).
Marble Goby in Three Delicacies 4/5
Fish is a must in the Lunar New Year meal as it symbolises well-being and prosperity. The Marble Goby in Three Delicacies ($78) is a fitting celebratory dish for the occasion. The three delicacies are marble goby, clam and prawn. The broth has a hint of herbal flavour and is fragrant with loads of garlic. It may not be for those that dislike garlic.
Clams with Basil Leaves 4.2/5
Basil leaves are usually used in Thai cuisine, but their incorporation into the Clams with Basil Leaves ($15.80) gives the shellfish an accentuated aromatic enjoyment.
Superior Soy Sauce Prawns 4.5/5
Another beautiful seafood dish on the menu is the Superior Soy Sauce Prawns ($36.80). Deep-fried and stir-fried in superior soy sauce, it gives the prawn's sweetness a boost in taste profile.
Dry Fried Green Beans 4.2/5
The Dry Fried Green Beans ($12.80) is a delectable vegetable dish that is fragrant and crunchy.
Homemade Tofu with Enoki Mushroom & Scallops 4.5/5
The Homemade Tofu with Enoki Mushroom & Scallops ($11.80) will delight the young and old for its soft and silky texture paired with a robust scallop sauce.
Crispy Roasted Sesame Chicken 4.2/5
Crispy on the skin and juicy inside is the Crispy Roasted Sesame Chicken ($38.80). The addition of sesame further enhances the taste profile for a delightful finish.
Braised Pork Knuckle 4.5/5
One of my favourite dishes for dinner is the Braised Pork Knuckle ($58). The pork knuckle, well flavoured by the braising sauce, is deliciously tender, paired with snow peas and mushrooms.
Signature Crispy "Chao Ta" Beehoon with Seafood 3.5/5
A signature at Crown Prince Kitchenette is their Crispy "Chao Ta" Beehoon with Seafood ($12.80). It is good, but it lacked the crispiness and wok hei I had at other places.
Note: This is an invited tasting.
