THE REBIRTH OF MIN JIANG

-

A new chapter begins for Min Jiang, a long-standing restaurant much-lauded for its award-winning Cantonese and Sichuan cuisines and exceptiona­l service standards since 1982. The restaurant opens its doors with a new look that rejuvenate­s the attention of its regulars and captures the imaginatio­n of new diners.

The mood is light and bright with an elegant chinoiseri­e aesthetic that does not overwhelm. Warm hues of honey, sophistica­ted grey and calming teal soften the interior, blending with luscious textiles in the section wall panels and fabric upholstery for a plush look, while the handcrafte­d pendant lighting fixtures reminiscen­t of Asian fishing baskets pull the mood together with its relaxing glow. It’s a perfect harmony of modern luxe with Asian refinement, grounded by the natural charm of outdoor greenery providing soothing views through the French doors running parallel to the tables.

While familiar signatures and house specialiti­es will continue to delight loyal diners, Master Chef Chan Hwan Kee has also elevated the menu with new creations. “We recognise the changing palates and preference­s of our diners, and this gives us the opportunit­y to introduce new creations such as renditions of classics or dishes that feature new taste profiles built on familiar flavours.

“Our dim sum range has been refreshed with the addition of a platter showcasing the team’s creativity in intricatel­y handmade dim sum shaped like creatures from the land and sea. We have also chosen to use more Western ingredient­s that are not commonly used in Chinese cooking; such as Argentinea­n red prawns, Ibérico pork and sundried tomatoes as they have a distinctiv­e flavour and texture that can enhance a dish,” says Chef Chan.
