Last week, I talked about Mother’s Day gift ideas. This week, let’s talk about how to date mum and where to bring her for yummy food!

Date Mum This Mother’s Day @ Zuan Yuan, One World Hotel

Considering that most mums love Chinese food (they’re rather traditional), I have no reason not to recommend my favorite Chinese restaurant, Zuan Yuan @ One World Hotel to you. Chef Lee Siew Hap and his team has especially crafted three delectable eight-course set meals in conjunction with Mother’s Day 2016.
Braised Fish Maw Soup “Fook Chow” Style with Abalone (鲍鱼仔福州鱼漂羹)

We started our feast with Braised Fish Maw Soup “Fook Chow” Style with Abalone. Wow, look at the huge abalone! I’m sure mummies would salivate when they saw it. Besides, fish maw is very good for the complexion. 😉
Sautéed Prawn with Green Soy Bean in Garlic Sauce (笼仔蒜味毛豆虾球)

Next, we had Sautéed Prawn with Green Soy Bean in Garlic Sauce. I love the juicy prawns and the taste is very much like home-cooked, even mummies would approve!
Steamed Tiger Garoupa with Bean Curd and Soy Sauce (鲜竹清蒸老虎斑)

My selection of signature dish for the whole course is Steamed Tiger Garoupa with Bean Curd and Soy Sauce because the fish meat tastes sweet and its texture is so smooth (probably smoother than my skin!). Only truly fresh fish can taste this good when steamed.
Braised Mushroom and Assorted Vegetables with Conpoy Sauce (瑶柱野菌时蔬)

After a meaty feast, we had some vegetables for a change with Braised Mushroom and Assorted Vegetables with Conpoy Sauce. Love that it’s light yet not bland in taste.
Egg Noodles with Sautéed Crab Meat, Egg and Bean Sprouts (鱼子桂花炒生面)

I also particularly fancy Egg Noodles with Sautéed Crab Meat, Egg and Bean Sprouts because there’s so many layers of texture in a mouthful! Taste at least 5 ingredients in just a mouthful is pure foodgasm.
Mini Crystal Longevity Bun / Chilled Mango Puree with Pomelo and Sago with Vanilla Ice Cream (水晶寿包仔 / 杨枝甘露)

There is no better way to cap a good meal than with a sweet dessert. With this in mind, we were offered Chilled Mango Puree with Pomelo and Sago topped with Vanilla Ice Cream, which proved to be a delight for all! We had it with the Mini Crystal Longevity Bun, full of Pandan fillings!

    I love every dish in this menu. Haha.

    The fish maw, the prawns, the abalone, and the grouper fish. The mini longevity bun is pretty interesting too.

    What is inside the bun? You mentioned pandan, do you mean pandan paste or is the pandan flavor infused into the dough?

    I think it’s great they offer per pax pricing, not everyone can seat 4 pax, especially with smaller families nowadays, it’s better to sit minimum two.

      Agree on the pricing part. No more headaches now 🙂
      Oh, it’s actually pandan paste in the bun. Something like mooncake fillings but smoother.
