Special Set Menu
At only RM988 for 6 pax, this is looking to be the most bang-for-buck offering in the state! The Pen Cai that is included in the set is simply superb, a great mix of all the auspicious flavors one comes to expect from the dish, and not forgetting a generous topping of abalone! We also enjoyed the Hong Kong style steamed Garoupa and glutinous rice in lotus leaf. Secure your bookings here.

Reunion Dinner Set
Fresh, locally caught silver pomfret, that's the main attraction for this set, considering how rare this fish can be during this season. Starting at RM1,688, guests can expect to be treated to a selection of expertly crafted, and unique dishes, such as the double boiled chicken soup, which is infused with a multitude of herbs, including dendrobium and lilyturf (Ophiogon).
