It's Time To Get Ready For A Festive Fest This Christmas!

| |
Hi Huneybees,


The festive mood is in the air as we officially step into the month of December in anticipation to the joyous occasion of Christmas, which is just DAYS away!

With Orchard Road and most shopping malls already dressed up for the Yuletide season hence it is about time that we should start preparing for it, if you have not yet done so, like me. Ellenborough Market Café @ Swissotel Merchant Court Singapore has already set the festive mood going by having a Festive Feast since 3rd of December until 31st December 2018.

I really enjoyed the moist and tendinous taste of the Turkey meat prepared by Ellenborough Market Café @ Swissotel Merchant Court Singapore

The main attraction on the menu of the Festive Feast is certainly the Asian-inspired Turkey with Cranberry and "Kam Heong" Sauce.
Having tried it during the media preview a few days back, I must say I really enjoyed the moist and tendinous taste of the turkey meat so much that I actually requested for repeated serving of this awesome dish! It's a simply awesome dish that I can imagine having it any day!!
While Cranberry source is pretty common as a dressing for the de facto dish for Christmas, the introduction of Kam Heong sauce - literally means "golden fragrance" in English and is a product of the old strait statement Chinese-Malay creation - added an interestingly strong but familiar taste to the already yummy slice of meat that worth every chewing in my mouth.

The Honey Glazed Smoked Gammon Ham weights around 6kg and is enough for up to 30 serving! 

Also worth mentioning is the Honey Glazed Smoked Gammon Ham (Semi Bone-In), which in my opinion was well rolled and smoked to perfection. The look of it (as a whole), while editing this blogpost, has again tackled those taste bugs of mine!

Do try out these two amazing dishes amongst what the Festive Feast has to offer at Ellenborough Market Café@ Swissotel Merchant Court Singapore, which is available everyday until 31st December 2018 and priced at SGD58 (Adult), SGD29 (Child) from noon to 2:30pm and SGD78 (Adult), SGD39 (Child) from 6:30pm to 10pm.

Alternatively, Huneybees could also bring both home at the takeaway counter at Ellenborough Market Café@ Swissotel Merchant Court Singapore and enjoy some early bird promotion of 25% discount before 14th December 2018 and thereafter 18% discount before 21st December!
To avoid disappointment, I would suggest Huneybees to call 6239 1847/1848 or email dining.merchantcourt@swissotel.com to enquiry before placing your order.


Have a GREAT start to a new Pre-Christmas Shopping weekend!

Lo Hei With Swissôtel Merchant Court This Lunar New Year

| |
Hi Huneybees,


It's mid-January and very fast it's time for the festive Lunar New Year celebrations. If you are looking for somewhere to have Lo Hei gathering with your family and friends or even company colleagues to usher in good luck for the Year of the Dog, why not do it at Swissôtel Merchant Court?


From 5 February - 2 March 2018, Ellenborough Market Café is bringing us delectable Prosperity Set Menus for a table of 10. There's a great variety of delicious auspicious dishes such as Double-boiled Fish Maw with Dried Scallop and Cordycep Flower, Imperial Herbal Chicken, Wok-Fried Asparagus with Pearl Scallop in XO Sauce, etc.


You can choose to have either Menu A (Priced at S$788++ per table of 10) or Menu B (Priced at S$988.00++ per table of 10).

Menu A
- Salmon Yu Sheng
- Double-boiled Fish Maw with Dried Scallop and Cordycep Flower
- Imperial Herbal Chicken
- Hong Kong Style Fried Garoupa
- Wok-fried Asparagus with Pearl Scallop in XO Sauce
- Fried Glutinous Rice Wrapped in Lotus Leaf
- Double-boiled ‘Hasma” with Red Dates

Menu B
- Salmon Yu Sheng
- Double-boiled Fish Maw with Dried Scallop and Cordycep Flower
- Imperial Herbal Chicken
- Hong Kong Style Fried Garoupa
- Wok-fried Asparagus with Pearl Scallop in XO Sauce
- Fried Glutinous Rice Wrapped in Lotus Leaf
- Braised Abalone and Sea Cucumber with Australian Broccoli
- Double-boiled ‘Hasma” with Red Dates





Both menus start off with Salmon Yu Sheng Lo Hei and what's special is that the restaurant has the ingredients decoratively placed them into dog designs to celebrate the Year of the Dog. The designs are created by the chefs and each table will get different designs, they are all so adorable, I really can't bear to mess it up though...

There were a few dishes that left an impression on me and I think it's a flavor that you can't find in other restaurants. As the ingredients are all super fresh, the foodie in me couldn't stop digging into these dishes since they remind me a lot of the dishes mum cooks every Lunar New Year.








If you have a smaller group and wanna try something different for Lunar New Year, there's also the Prosperity Buffet where you can enjoy some traditional Lunar New Year dishes alongside the Ellenborough Market Café's popular Peranakan Cuisine.

PROSPERITY BUFFET 
Lunch: $68++ per adult, $34++ per child
Dinner: $80++ per adult, $40++ per child
The above prices include a platter of Yu Sheng per table.
Roast Duck and Roast Pork Belly are available for dinner only at the Roast Station.
You can top up $28++ and enjoy an additional serving of sliced abalone with your Yu Sheng
Their Buffet also offers delicious tender Chicken, Char Siew, Duck and Pork Belly from our Roast Station and culinary treasures such as Hong Kong Style Steamed Garoupa, Stir-fried Asparagus with Scallop in XO Sauce and Stewed Dried Oyster with Black Moss in Tianjin Cabbage. There is also Peranakan cuisine such as Ayam Buah Keluak, Wok-Fried Slipper Lobster in Black Bean Sauce. Not forgetting my all-time favourite, Durian Pengat. There are also festive goodies, from delectable Pineapple Tarts to sweet treats such as Love Letters, Kueh Bangkit, Kueh Bahulu and Mandarin Orange Pound Cake. 





Let's Lo Hei for a Huat Year of Dog at Swissôtel Merchant Court during this coming CNY period!
