Taste of Edesia | A festive celebration 

Year of the Ox is finally here and everyone is looking for a unique way to celebrate with family and friends. To do so without spending an arm and a leg does not mean compromising the quality of goods and services, and one of the best deals available out there right now has to be the “Celebrate at Sheraton” hotel package at Sheraton Grand Macao.
It is truly amazing that the package allows guests to redeem the cost of their room at dining, bar and spa outlets during their stay. Only priced at HKD1,888, the room comes with credits to the same value to be spent at Feast, Yum Cha, Shine Spa, in-room dining, The Manor and The St. Regis Bar at The St. Regis Macao.
Specialising in classic Cantonese family style cooking, Yum Cha is offering a special Lavish New Year Set Menu as well as a-la-carte Chinese New Year Specials. The set menu includes prosperity “lo hei” with salmon sashimi, double-boiled quail soup with matsutake mushroom, braised pork trotter with dried mushroom, sea moss and dried oyster. Chinese New Year Specials include crispy Cantonese fried chicken, steamed Boston lobster with house made yellow bean sauce and steamed star garoupa served Thai style.
Chinese New Year is synonymous with family reunion and there’s no better way to come together with friends or relatives to share a delicious, hearty Poon Choi. Yum Cha’s Fortune Poon Choi features nearly 20 ingredients, including whole South African abalone, Japanese sea cucumber, fish maw, and dried oysters.
For a more casual celebration, Feast International Buffet has an expansive range of Chinese New Year Special dishes for both lunch and dinner. Highlights include traditional festive Chinese style roast suckling pig with steamed gua bao and the famous Sichuan mala hotpot. Symbolising wealth and prosperity, try steamed turbot fish, stir-fried Alaskan crab leg, and braised sea cucumber and abalone. Irene Sam, MDT
