Following this ceremonial act, the dynamic rhythms of a traditional Lion and Dragon Dance captivated guests and onlookers, filling the atmosphere with joy and excitement as the performers bring the legendary creatures to life. Together, these vibrant traditions intertwine to create an unforgettable experience, welcoming the New Year with an abundance of good fortune and cultural awareness.
An essential part of Chinese New Year celebrations, the dance symbolises power, strength, and good fortune. The energetic synchronised movements by skilled artists brought excitement and joy creating an atmosphere of positivity and optimism for the coming year. It was followed by refreshments of light snacks, drinks and tea at Madeleine High Tea while astrologer Jill Andrea Gepilano discussed her predictions for each Chinese Zodiac sign for the Year of the Wood Snake.
Elevating the festive ambiance, the lunch buffet at Cyan Modern Kitchen followed for a truly memorable Lunar New Year culinary experience. Media and guests indulged in an exquisite array of classic Chinese dishes, meticulously prepared to celebrate the auspicious occasion.
A highlight of the buffet is the traditional prosperity toss, the Yee Sang Toss, an engaging and lively culinary ritual that invites diners to participate in the art of tossing a vibrant raw fish salad, symbolising wealth, and good fortune.
