XIN CUISINE CHINESE RESTAURANT

Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, Level 4, 317 Outram Road, S(169075)

TEL: 6731 7173

Nearly 30 years old, this restaurant remains a big hit with diners who want their fill of sophisticated Cantonese cuisine. Try the beloved Xin’s home-style roast duck, which has a perfectly crisp skin and an aromatic flavour, thanks to the tea leaves it was cooked with. The poached rice with seafood in superior broth is only served in individual portions. Presented in a claypot, it also includes crispy rice, which creates variation in the texture of the dish. For beef lovers, the stir-fried Wagyu beef cubes with black pepper and longan will thrill discerning taste buds. The beef is of a premium grade and thus incredibly juicy and tender, and is accompanied by slightly sweet longan and vegetables. End the meal with the chilled mango coulis and hashima, served with a side of warm pan-fried red bean pancake. Like the food menu, the beverage menu here is relatively extensive. Besides beverages such as speciality teas like half-fermented oolong tea and Chinese wines, the restaurant also offers a variety of alcoholic drinks.
