Yan Ting Chinese New Year 2016 @ St.Regis Hotel Singapore

Chinese New Year is just around the corner. Have you planned your reunion dinner or company dinner to celebrate the coming lunar new year? If not, Yan Ting at St. Regis Hotel Singapore has curated a delightful a la carte menu and set menus, as well as festive takeawys to usher in the year of the Monkey.

Prosperity Yu Sheng with Norwegian Salmon and Abalone 4/5

Tossing to a year of abundance and prosperity with the Prosperity Yu Sheng With Norwegian Salmon and Abalone. The harmonious texture of marinated papaya, sweet honeydew, luscious peach, juicy pomelo, refreshing snow pear, as well as dried orange peel gives the usual yu sheng an enhanced fruity and refreshing enjoyment.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall 4.2/5

Buddha Jump Over the Wall traditionally is a soup delicacy but Chef Wun has given it an interesting spin with his braised version that consists of time honoured indulgences like abalone, sea cucumber, fish maw, oyster and dried scallops.

Braised Pig's Trotters with Fermented Bean Curd 4/5

The Braised Pig's Trotters with Fermented Bean Curd is another delicacy on the menu. While I can't really tasted the fermented bean curd, the pig trotter is braised to a delectable tenderness, especially the melted in the mouth gelatin skin.

Fried Prawns with Golden Garlic 4/5

A popular choice among the adults and children will be Fried Prawns with Golden Garlic for its crunchy, succulent prawns and fragrant bites of the garlic.

Crispy Roasted Chicken 4/5

Grilled to perfection is the Crispy Roasted Chicken with a glistening golden sheen of skin layered over the tender, juicy meat beneath.

Wok Fried Glutinous Rice with Wind Dried Sausages 4.5/5

Completing the dinner is the Wok Fried Glutinous Rice with Wind Dried Sausages. The flavoursome glutinous rice is further lifted by the wind dried sausages for a complete round off to the whole enjoyment.

Fragrant Homemade Almond Tea Served with Crispy Glutinous Rice Cake

For desert, we have the Fragrant Homemade Almond Tea Served with Crispy Glutinous Rice Cake to finished off the sumptuous meal. Nothing fancy but comforting and hearty to wrap up the night.

Yan Ting's Lunar New Year Set Menus and exclusive A la carte Menu will be served during lunch and dinner. It will be available from 11 January to 22 February 2016.

The Ugly Cake Shop @ GB Point (Kallang Bahru)

Started as a home bakery, owner and baker Lisa quit her corporate job a few years back to concentrate on her baking at a licensed central kitchen in Ang Mo Kio. With the encouraging online orders and limited kitchen space, The Ugly Cake Shop took the bold step and moved into GB Point at Kallang Bahru, having its own cafe space offering its signature cupcakes and cakes.

Do not expect any latte art or pretty instagrammable cafe food dishes at The Uglly Cake Shop. The Ugly Cake Shop is still very much focus on her bakes while the cafe space provides a convenient sitting area for guests that needs a break, to enjoy their cupcakes and cakes.

Juliana

 If you have not known, the cupcakes at The Ugly Cake Shop are named after the owner's favourite people such as Juliana (Salted Caramel with Sea Salt Flakes),  Melissa (Strawberry, Rum & Dark Chocolate).

Melissa

Other cupcakes available are Zesty Zee (Lemon), Jamie (Earl Grey), Sally (Peanut Butter & Dark Chocolate). However the most popular cupcake is the Big Daddy (Super Chocolatey with Nutella & Valrhona), which is not in the picture. As you probably would have guessed, it is sold out.

Zesty Zee, Jamie, Sally 

The cupcakes at The Ugly Cake Shop ranges from $3.80 to $4.50.

Desmond

For a twist to the usual cupcake is Desmond, a grilled cupcake. The butter base cupcake is grilled and served with orange blossom cream and cherry compote. Do note that this is a special item and is not always available. Please check with the cafe.

With a kind heart and a vision to feed the poor. Lisa has pledged and donates 20% of its proceeds towards buying meat, eggs and other much-needed protein sources for the kids in Shallom School, a school set up by Brazilian missionaries and supported by Agape Baptist Church. Every baked good you purchase from The Ugly Cake Shop will help to supplement their meals!
