Crafted by Singaporean Chef-Owner Lee Hong Wei as an homage to his Fujian heritage, Yue Bai’s new seasonal Summer Menu showcases Chef Lee’s modern take on Fujian heritage dishes from various cities, blending traditional favourites with contemporary creations.
Contemporized to bridge the East and West, the flavours here are perfectly paired with Yue Bai’s extensive selection of Portuguese wines, which offers a unique opportunity to explore the best of Portugal’s terroir and the finest of Fujian flavours under one roof.
Begin with appetizers like Roselle Flower-Infused Chinese Yam ($12), where cold slices of Chinese yam are tinged a pretty shade of pink thanks to marinating in roselle flower water or for a crunchy option, enjoy the addictive Crisp-Fried Burdock, Sesame Seeds, Spice Powder ($14) that is good for aiding digestion.
