2nd Penang International Halal Chefs Challenge
By Liao Xiangjun
On top of the usual dim sum that’s pretty well known for Wan Hao at Singapore Marriott Hotel, the restaurant is coming up with a new menu featuring a 5-course lunch to light up your world of taste. Well we tried the dim sum that included the much loved egg lava bun, shrimp dumpling, char siew bun that mirrors that of bo lo bun, and siew mai! The new inclusions that we tried are dishes like the lobster broth, hashima, cordyseps flowers which is really unique where hashima is found in a savoury instead of the usual hashima dessert soup, crispy sea cucumber, abalone sauce, seasonal greens that applies a new way of preparing sea cucumber where it is fried instead of the usual boiling, steamed lobster, garlic, where glass noodles are plated just beneath the steamed lobster for a mixture of softness and chewiness, stir-fried diced beef cubes, black pepper, where the beef cubes are stir fried with not only black pepper but also the addition of capsicums for that oriental touch, fresh prawn, crab congee, that is not watery and kind of sticky like the Cantonese styled congee and good for those who prefer congee that is not too much on the salty side. Lastly for dessert, we tried the bird’s nest egg tarts where you will be able to try the bird’s nest on its own or end your course with a satisfying mouthful of egg tart. Lunch only available from 11am-3pm, on weekends and public holidays. Drop by today!
