Guests joining us to celebrate Chinese New Year on Thursday 19th February will be able to enjoy a very special dish as part of the evening’s ‘Double Happiness’ menu – this traditional Lo Hei (撈起) salad.
Lo Hei is a fortune- and prosperity-bringing dish especially popular at Chinese New Year. Its origins date back more than 750 years to the days of the Song Dynasty, when fishermen along the coast of China would celebrate the seventh day of Chinese New Year, known as Renri or ‘everyone’s birthday’, with this fresh fish and diced vegetable dish.

The Reunion Dinner is a meal traditionally enjoyed by families – as many generations as are able to gather, often travelling from afar and even from overseas for the occasion – on the eve of Chinese New Year.

On Wednesday 18th February – Chinese New Year’s Eve – we will be serving a special Reunion Dinner menu alongside the main a la carte to enable families, friends and groups of colleagues to enjoy this wonderful tradition for themselves.
