Yee Sang for prosperity

The Hilton hotels group in Malaysia will present their “Fortune Flavours The Bold” spread for this Chinese New Year season with celebratory feasts such as reunion set menus, themed buffets, takeaway specials and more. 

This also marks the first nationwide campaign of the year with eleven participating properties throughout the country.

A wordplay of the popular ‘fortune favours the bold’ proverb, this year’s theme honours the Tiger zodiac’s traits of boldness and bravery, while ‘fortune’ is synonymous with the festive period and symbolic among the Chinese communities. 

The masterfully-crafted dishes are flavoured with a bold dimension, aligning with Hilton’s core values of culinary craftsmanship and creative innovation. 

A highlight at every Chinese New Year table, this year’s roaring yee sang selections range from the classic salmon varieties to Hilton Petaling Jaya’s Rose Apple Yee Sang to Hilton Kuala Lumpur’s Yee Sang with Tossed Peach Gum, Crispy Rice and Snow Crab Stick, and Signature Yee Sang with Crispy Japan A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Beef. 

Plant-based lovers can opt for the Yee Sang with ‘Beyond Meat’ in Traditional Sauce at Hilton Kuala Lumpur’s Chynna, or order a Vegetarian Yee Sang with Fruits from Hilton Garden Inn Puchong’s Garden Grille.

Welcome the arrival of spring in full reunion fashion with Oriental course set menus at selected outlets such as Chynna at Hilton Kuala Lumpur, and Toh Yuen at Hilton Kuching and Hilton Petaling Jaya. Featuring lunar favourites such as Braised Lobster Meat Soup with Shanghai Crab Meat Sauce, Guangxi-Style Poached Free-Range Chicken, Crispy Roasted Chicken with Prawn Crackers, Espresso Coffee Prawns Topped with Crispy Shredded Fish Fillet, Steamed
Live Tiger Grouper with Homemade Soy Sauce and Parsley, Wok Seared Japanese Miyazaki Wagyu, Sliced Abalone with Sea Cucumber and Green Asparagus and many more.

Paying homage to the traditional Cantonese casserole, “Poon Choy” or Treasure Pot is a bountiful mixture with fine layerings of seafood, meat and vegetables, usually served in a traditional claypot.  Available exclusively at Hilton Kuala Lumpur, DoubleTree by Hilton Kuala Lumpur, DoubleTree by Hilton Johor Bahru and DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Penang.

Lavish spread for CNY

Guests who opt for a more casual dining experience can enjoy a themed buffet lunch or dinner at the hotels’ flagship all-day dining restaurants including Vasco’s, Makan Kitchen, Urban Kitchen and Paya Serai.
