1. Yì by Jereme Leung
Yì by Jereme Leung marks the season with elegant creations made from the freshest springtime ingredients. Running from March 4 to May 31, the new menu is a tour of China’s diverse provinces, which sees appetisers such as crystal dumplings stuffed with sea urchin, conpoy and wild vegetables, and braised bird’s nest soup with crab meat and spinach. Toona is yet another ingredient that stands out with its onion-like flavour; see it as a spicy tuna sauce accompanying stir-fried Hokkaido scallop, or capellini with cuttlefish cake and sakura shrimp. Don’t forget dessert, which includes a caramel and green tea panna cotta, served alongside a coconut glutinous rice dumpling.
