Celebratory wine pairing menu at Café Malacca

For starters, the sweet and spicy pie tee is paired with a sparkling Ruggeri, Prosecco Brut NV—the perfect festive prelude that will not only delight the palate but will impress friends. Keep it on ice, as this prosecco also matches well with the restaurant’s famous onde onde cake.

Diners can choose lamb, chicken or beef satay which go well with the light spicy red berries and plum notes of the Chilian Lapostolle, Merlot, balancing out the richness of the meat and sauce.

A traditional nasi lemak is paired with the fruity apple and pear notes from Italian Pinot Grigio, Gocce di Terra while the Hainanese chicken rice pairs well with a light and fruity French Chardonnay—Bouchard Père et Fils.

For something more celebratory, the chilli and black pepper crab dishes go with the Australian Singlefile, Semillon Sauvignon Blanc. Its tropical fruity notes complement the chilli and black pepper spices.

For laksa and noodle dishes such as the Penang assam laksa, a German Riesling matches perfectly, while the Penang char koay teow is best served with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc from France.

There are plenty of perfect matches to celebrate and welcome in the New Year.
