One of the many restaurants and bars housed in the eye-catching Singapore Marriott Hotel Tang Plaza (the plaza is itself an homage to Chinese architecture), Wan Hao Chinese Restaurant champions contemporary Cantonese cuisine in an environment designed to evoke the house of a Chinese scholar. Black and gold detailing, jewel-box booth seating, examples of calligraphy and Chinese artifacts evince the four arts of classical Chinese culture – ‘qin’ (zither, 琴), ‘qi’ (strategy board games 棋), ‘shu’ (calligraphy 書) and ‘Hua’ (painting 畫), providing the perfect backdrop for executive chef Bring Wong Shiuh Yean’s exquisitive, seductive culinary creations: stewed bird’s nest with egg white, dried South African Abalone with Japanese shiitake mushroom in Yean’s secret sauce and much more. A gourmet Chinese dining experience on Orchard Road, bookings are essential.
