Window On The Park @ Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre - Toss To A Prosperous Lunar New Year With A Sumptuous Reunion Buffet Feast

Situated within Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre, Window on the Park welcomes guests with a delectable array of local, Asian and seafood delights in their sumptuous reunion lunch and dinner buffet spread to herald the arrival of the Year of the Pig, available from 22 January to 20 February 2019.

Simple yet full of flavour, diners can begin with a Salmon Yu Sheng at the DIY yusheng station where you can choose and pick the ingredients of the yusheng yourself, before bringing it to the table to begin the auspicious tossings!

Start the feast by sipping on a comforting bowl of Double Boiled Old Cucumber Soup. The soup is extremely nutritious and packed full of flavours, with generous amount of premium ingredients within.

Graze on their fragrant coin-shaped Chicken Bak Kwa - one of their festive special in the buffet line up. Also an extremely addictive treat.

Usher in the Lunar New Year with culinary line up of superbly crafted Chinese New Year cuisine including the Steamed Glutinous Rice in Lotus Leaf with Chinese Wax Meat, Slice Szechuan Beef, Char Siu Fried Rice, Mongolian Prawn, and Butterfly Prawn with Wasabi Mayo Sauce.

The Salted Egg Crayfish is one of my favourite. Fresh and tender, the crayfish comes slathered in a robust salted egg sauce with a hint of spice, no doubt one of the most popular dish as it was gone within minutes from the buffet table.

Dive right into their Singapore Chilli Crab with Mantou. With huge chunks of fresh crab drenched in a sweet and spicy chilli sauce, don't forget to dip and soak the deep-fried mantou for maximum enjoyment.

Reunite with your family and friends over scrumptious spreads of not only traditional Chinese New Year cuisine but Asian and international dishes as well, such as the Lamb Leg with Brown Sauce and Spaghetti Aglio Olio.

Hop over to the Japanese station for a wide variety of fresh sashimi, seafood and sushi, as well as the salad station where you can choose and customise your own from a selection of salad choices such as the Mix Fruit, Roasted Duck, Pasta, Prawn or Cheese Salad for something refreshing and lighter from the richer savoury dishes.

End the feast on a sweet note with desserts such as the Green Tea Castella Cake, Chocolate Tart and Creme Caramel, as well as an assortment of Nyonya Kueh.

Don't miss out on their festive specials such as the soft chewy Pan Fried Nian Gao. Diners can also look forward to an assortment of traditional Chinese New Year local cookies such as the Pineapple Tarts, Peanut Puffs and Love Letters.

Stellar Lunar New Year Celebrations At Michelin Starred Jiang-Nan Chun (江南春)

Usher in a prosperous and abundant Year of the Pig with sumptuous delicacies and specialty menus from Michelin starred Jiang-Nan Chun (江南春). Jiang-Nan Chun at Four Seasons Hotel Singapore has put together celebratory menus crafted by Executive Chinese Chef Tim Lam, that is available at $148, $178 and $228 per person for 6 courses, and range from $1088 per table of 8 persons to $5,688 per table of 10 persons for 8 courses.

Abundance Australian Lobster and Abalone Yu Sheng

Kick start the year with the Abundance Australian Lobster and Abalone Yu Sheng. Tossed to a year of prosperity and abundance.

Double-boiled Superior Bird's Nest with Fish Maw and Chinese Cabbage

Both comforting and nourishing is the Double-boiled Superior Bird's Nest with Fish Maw and Chinese Cabbage. Enjoyed the softness of the Chinese cabbage, while at the same time giving the bowl of soup a enhanced layer of sweetness.

Braised Boston Lobster in Superior Stock

The Braised Boston Lobster in Superior Stock is well executed. The lobster meat is cooked to a delightful bouncy texture, firm but still retain that juiciness.

Steamed Cod Fillet with Sliced Yunnan Ham and Mushrooms

Fish is an auspicious dish in Chinese New Year and this is represented in the Steamed Cod Fillet with Sliced Yunnan Ham and Mushrooms. The flavour was not as intense as I would have expected. It seems that rich flavour of the Yunan ham was not totally drawn out.

Barbecued Suckling Pig

Do you know that Jiang-Nan Chun has their own in house barbecue specialist? This is how serious they are with their Barbecued Suckling Pig. The skin was crispy and crackling. it is best enjoyed together with the steamed pancake, scallion and hoisin sauce.

Braised Sea Cucumber with Three Head Abalone

What stood out in the Braised Sea Cucumber with Three Head Abalone dish is the abalone. Everyone at the table was commenting how soft and tender it was, complemented by the excellent sauce.

Braised E-Fu Noodles with Crab Meat and Straw Mushrooms

While I enjoy the Braised E-Fu Noodles with Crab Meat and Straw Mushrooms, I could not really taste the crab meat. Even so, I think it will be masked by the rich, savoury sauce.

Double-boiled Hashima and Red Dates and Lotus Seeds

Wrapping up the dinner is the Double-boiled Hashima and Red Dates and Lotus Seeds. Served warm, the sweet soup somewhat helps to cleanse all the richness from the earlier dishes.

Note: This is an invited tasting.
