Behind every man and his work is a story that isn’t always told. When he first picked up cooking at a young and tender age to care for his family, he never imagined he’d spend the next 25 years in the kitchen. “There is no secret in the kitchen”, he says, “nor is there any equation.”
Chef Cheung Siu Kong, the Chinese Executive Chef of Summer Pavillion at The Ritz Carlton Millenia Singapore made the Chinese papers some time ago. Apparently, a guest had gifted him a laminated copy of that article, claiming to be a huge fan of his.
Needless to say, I was excited about trying out his creations!
It would be hard to pick a favourite from our meal. After all, it presented us one delightful dish after another, with small pleasant surprises along the way. For example, the Sea Whelk Soup used Morchella mushrooms were designed to resemble a goat’s horns. How apt for the Year Of The Goat!
The Lunar New Year set menu is a thoughtful creation by Chef Cheung which I enjoyed thoroughly. From the preparation techniques of each dish to the symbolism of an ingredient, nearly everything was on point in this delectable spread at Summer Pavillion.
5 to 8 course set lunch and dinner menus are priced from $68 per person, subject to 10% service charge and prevailing government taxes. Diners celebrating the first 15 days of the Lunar New Year from 19 February to 5 March at Summer Pavillion will receive a set of exclusive Ritz-Carlton red packets and a pair of Mandarin oranges.
