Media Invite

When it comes to Chinese New Year (CNY), one of the talking point and highlight has to be the Reunion Meal. Nowadays, families are celebrating not necessary on the CNY eve night, but more families are planning their reunion meal (lunch or dinner) earlier. Either way, the main thing is to reunion with family members and loved ones. And for Chinese, the reunion meal has to be one of the best for the year, typically symbolizing happiness, abundance, prosperity, peace, fortune, health, etc.

Peony Jade brought the tasting of CNY meal to a whole new level when we visited them at their restaurant at Keppel Club. We were treated to the festive creation of “Eight Rhapsodies of Spring”, featuring two new dessert creations and eight other new and signature dishes.
