I had the pleasure of joining a few media mates and food junkies earlier this week! After an extensive $1.5 Million refurbishment, Man Fu Yuan at the Intercontinental 80 Middle Road Singapore returns to take its place as a leading Singapore Cantonese restaurant with a refreshingly delicious approach to fine Canotonese dining. As an Aussie and certainly one for a simple meat and veg menu, this experience was definately an eye opener. The setting is plush, the service is exceptional and the menu is extensive. And items can be paired with traditional Chinese teas including Man Fu Yuan Special five elements blend using the ingredients of fire, earth and wood. An excellent palatte enhancer.

A definate stand out was the signature creation - Tea Smoked Duck, flavoured with Royal Daffodil, giving it a unique aroma and taste. No complaints at all. Don’t miss Chef Simon Poon’s own distinctive Cream of Pumpkin with Ice-Cream. This delight will refresh your palatte with its smooth and light creamy consistency. Thanks to all the staff at the Intercontinental. I will definately be back and booking a private room for a cosy party of eight!
