1. Esquire Kitchen

“Ong Lai” Fish

Esquire Kitchen has specially prepared a CNY menu for all to enjoy. It contains a dish called ‘Ong Lai’, which means ‘Luck comes’; a positive and welcoming phrase for the Lunar New Year. But another translation for ‘Ong Lai’ is pineapple and this is reflected in the fish dish: the sweet citrus sauce (yin) complements the crispy fried fish (yang).
