Man Fu Yuan @ Fraser House, a Luxury Collection Hotel - Ushers in The Year of The Horse with an Impressive Line-up of Seven Festive Set Menus

Man Fu Yuan at Fraser House by a Luxury Collection Hotel ushers in the Year of the Horse with an impressive line-up of seven thoughtfully curated festive set menus, starting from $168++ per person. Designed to cater to celebrations of all scales – from intimate family reunions to large corporate gatherings – the menus also include a refined vegetarian option, reflecting both inclusivity and finesse in their festive offerings.

Celestial Auspicious Yu Sheng 4/5

A definite showstopper of the season is the spectacular 88cm Celestial Auspicious Yu Sheng ($1,288++, serves up to 10), dramatically crowned with a 1.2m mythical horse in mid-leap, symbolising strength, vitality and boundless possibilities for the year ahead. Beyond its visual impact, the Yu Sheng impresses with its lavish selection of premium ingredients – abalone, rock lobster, ikura, crispy shredded dried Hokkaido scallop, salmon sashimi, crispy fish skin and auspicious condiments – tossed in a fragrant golden peach–passion fruit sauce and shallot oil. The combination delivers both textural contrast and a well-balanced sweet-tangy finish, making it a festive centrepiece worthy of the occasion.

Cantonese Lobster Soup, Crab Meat, Crab Roe, Premium Fish Maw 4.2/5

The luxurious bowl of Cantonese Lobster Soup is an umami-laden delight. Rich with crab meat, crab roe and premium fish maw, the broth carries deep crustacean sweetness, elevated further by the briny richness of the roe. The tender, gelatinous fish maw adds an indulgent textural contrast, making each spoonful comforting yet opulent.

Steamed Alaskan King Crab, Egg White, 15-Year Chinese Wine, Scallion 4.5/5

Another elegant seafood dish follows: Steamed Alaskan King Crab, served on a silky bed of egg white. Lightly perfumed with 15-year Chinese wine and finished with scallions, the dish highlights the crab's natural sweetness. The egg white, steamed with the crustacean, absorbs its essence beautifully, resulting in a refined, aromatic plate.

Salt-baked Chicken with Red Rice Wine, Dongjiang Style 4.2/5

The Salt-baked Chicken with Red Rice Wine is baked to tender perfection, retaining its succulence beneath a gently seasoned exterior. The addition of red rice wine enhances the aroma and adds a subtle fermented sweetness, lending depth and complexity to this comforting classic.

Steamed Silver Cod Fillet, Duo Garlic, 15-Year Preserved Radish, Superior Soya Sauce 4.2/5

A delicate showcase of technique, the Steamed Silver Cod Fillet highlights the fish's buttery richness and flaky texture. The pairing with duo garlic, aged preserved radish and superior soya sauce accentuates its natural sweetness, creating a clean yet deeply satisfying flavour profile.

Wuxi-style Braised Iberico Pork Belly, 18-Head South African Premium Dried Abalone 4.8/5

One of the standout dishes of the evening is the duo of Wuxi-style Braised Iberico Pork Belly and 18-head South African Premium Dried Abalone with broccoli. The pork belly, with its perfect ratio of fat to lean, is wobbly tender and melts in the mouth – indulgent yet not greasy. The abalone is equally impressive, cooked to tender perfection with a molten centre, a clear testament to the chef's mastery of this prized ingredient. This dish alone justifies the menu's premium nature.

Golden Fried Rice, Crispy Premium Spiky Sea Cucumber, Preserved Leek Sauce 4/5

As with all traditional Chinese banquets, the meal concludes with a comforting carbohydrate dish. The Golden Fried Rice is satisfying and well-executed, complemented by crispy premium spiky sea cucumber in preserved leek sauce. The sea cucumber offers a delightful firm, and bouncy texture, adding interest to this hearty finale.

Mandarin Kumquat Sorbet, Red Osmanthus Honey, Golden Bird's Nest 4.2/5

Wrapping up the meal is a light, refreshing dessert of Mandarin Kumquat Sorbet, paired with Red Osmanthus Honey and Golden Bird's Nest. Clean, aromatic and gently sweet, it provides a refreshing close to a rich and indulgent Lunar New Year feast.

Fei Zap Mai Laan (肥汁米蘭) @ Vivocity - Opens First Overseas Outlet in Singapore with Its Famous Hong Kong Rice Noodles

FËI ZAP MÂI LÄAN (肥汁米蘭), a well-known name for Hong Kong-style rice noodles, marks its first overseas venture with the opening of its 85th outlet at VivoCity. Originating in China, the brand is famous for its consistently long queues, with customers drawn to its nostalgic flavours and comforting bowls inspired by heritage recipes dating back over 60 years. The founder personally travelled to Hong Kong to learn the craft behind these recipes, and today, the same techniques are used to recreate the familiar flavours that many grew up with.

For those who prefer a straightforward choice, the Signature Bowls offer preset ingredient combinations carefully matched with each soup base, allowing diners to enjoy a well-balanced bowl without the hassle of customising from scratch.

The Mighty Four Bowl 4/5

The Mighty Four Bowl ($13.90) features a generous combination of fish roe balls, ham, wuxiang, and Fei Zap's house-made char siew, served with bean sprouts, coriander, and rice noodles. What stands out is the broth, which is thicker and richer than the usual clear soup. With savoury minced meat and a light smoky fragrance from the stir-fried zhajiang, the slow-simmered bone base delivers a smooth, collagen-rich texture that clings nicely to the noodles.

The Pickled Punch Beef Bowl 4.2/5

The Pickled Punch Beef Bowl ($15.90) is one of the most popular menu items. This bowl combines sliced beef, beef tendon balls, tau pok, and black fungus, finished with bean sprouts and coriander. Paired with the Pickled Punch Soup Base, the broth is bright and tangy with a gentle spicy kick, making it a refreshing option for those who enjoy bolder flavours.

The Supreme Twin Fish Bowl 3.8/5

Fish lovers will appreciate the Supreme Twin Fish Bowl ($16.90), which comes with both fried fish and sliced fish, along with black fungus, crabstick, radish, and bean sprouts. The broth is clean yet flavourful, allowing the fish's natural sweetness to come through. Light but satisfying, this is a good option for those looking for a nourishing and comforting bowl.

The Tomato Chop Bowl 4.2/5

Inspired by cha chaan teng classics, the Tomato Chop Bowl ($16.90) features a sunny side up egg, a specially marinated Hong Kong-style fried pork chop, vegetables, and diced tomatoes, served with macaroni. The tomato-based broth is gently tangy and sweet, and the crispy pork chop adds a hearty touch to this nostalgic, café-style dish.

Beyond the signature bowls, diners can customise their own combinations with over 30 different toppings, ranging from light vegetables to heartier meat options. Each topping is priced between S$0.99 and S$2.99, making it easy to tailor a bowl according to individual preferences.

Braised Wings 4/5

Curry Fishballs 3/5

Fried Wontons 3/5

To go along with the noodle bowls, a small selection of side dishes is available for sharing. The Braised Wings (S$4.90 for 3 pcs), Curry Fishballs (S$3.90 for 3 pcs), and Fried Wontons (S$5.90 for 5 pcs) make for easy add-ons to round out the meal. Among the three, the Braised Wings are the highlight, with tender meat that is well infused with the savoury marinade.

Mango Pomelo Sago 4/5

Red Bean Double-Skin Milk Pudding 4/5

For dessert, the Mango Pomelo Sago ($5.90) and Red Bean Double-Skin Milk Pudding ($4.30) provide a light, refreshing finish to the meal.

With its heritage-inspired recipes, comforting broths, and flexible customisation, FËI ZAP MÂI LÄAN offers a familiar yet satisfying noodle experience for those who enjoy Hong Kong-style rice noodles.
