In celebration of Singapore’s 58th birthday, Yàn commemorates the nation’s rich culinary heritage with a National Day Dim Sum Menu (from $6++). Available for lunch only from 1 to 15 August 2023, delight in a repertoire of delicate creations showcasing a sumptuous spread of classic Cantonese delights incorporated with local flavours.
Paying homage to the Peranakan culture in Singapore is the poached prawns and diced cod fish dumpling with Assam sauce ($9++ for 3 pieces). Tossed in a piquant Assam sauce, the silky wantons feature a combination of succulent prawns and diced cod fish. The steamed vegetarian dumpling ($6 for 2 pieces) presents crystal dumpling filled with preserved radish, peanuts, carrots, water chestnuts, and onions.
Returning favourites include the steamed Xiao Long Bao with Bak Kut Teh Stock ($8++ for 4 pieces) and steamed Hainanese chicken with sticky rice wrapped in Lotus Leaf ($6++ for 2 pieces). The former draws inspiration from the famed pork rib soup in Singapore while the latter showcases a Cantonese interpretation of the beloved Hainanese chicken rice.
Celebrate the nation’s birthday with a spread of local-inspired dim sum at Yàn, exclusively available from 1 to 15 August 2023 during lunch hours only.
