Chef Tan pays homage to Golden Phoenix's popular dishes while embracing modern taste buds with his recreations for the exclusive menu. This menu features dishes such as the Golden Phoenix Classic Tasmanian Salmon and Tropical Caviar Yee Sang, Wok-Fried Boston Lobster with Kaffir Lime Leaf Mayo and Golden Garlic as well as the classic favourite from the 1970s, Loh Mai Chi with Fried Nian Gao.
