Decades-old Hua Ting and their refined Cantonese dishes stand in a league of their own. The space was recently renovated, with a renewed menu to boot. The flavourful Dong Xing Garoupa Rice, Crispy Rice, Superior Stock ($28) is a must have, alongside the smoky and lustrous Charcoal Grilled Spanish Iberico Pork Char Siew ($18).

Peach Blossoms

For Chinese fare that doesn’t run the classic routes, this restaurant dishes out innovative East-meets-West eats. Don’t miss the delicate Chilled Abalone with Konbu and Jellyfish ($16) starter, which sees a Japanese touch with its use of yuzu sauce. For mains, the Stir-Fried Fish Paste Noodle with King Prawn in XO Chilli Sauce (from $36) is a winner that melds contemporary plating with old-school wok hei goodness.

Grand Shanghai Restaurant

The old-world oriental feel at Grand Shanghai sets the mood for a fun, go-back-in-time family occasion, especially for the parents. Order smaller portions so you can have more variety — we recommend the addictive Crispy Eel (from $16), fragrant Drunken Chicken (from $14) and the Honey Baked Yunnan Ham (from $30). For dessert, the Osmanthus Jelly with Wolfberries ($6) is a favourite.

Shang Palace

If there’s one lunchtime order to rock up to stalwart Shang Palace for, it is their barbecued pork, which leaves little to be desired. Burppler Casey Tan vividly describes it as “a slightly caramelized malty top with a fatty centre tucked between two flavourful strips of meat”. We’re sold.

Cherry Garden

Decked out in teak round tables and antique accents, Cherry Garden checks all the right boxes for a dim sum treat. Expect a unique, upscaled take on the usuals — think Steamed Boston Lobster and Scallop Dumplings ($12) and Fried Norwegian Langoustine in Crunchy Pastry ($12). Burppler Jean Kao, for one, has nothing but praise for the delectable dim sum as well as the stellar service!

Tien Court

Lush and warmly lit, Copthorne King’s Tien Court will fare well for a more intimate celebration. Plan your dinner to revolve around the prized Peking Duck (from $38 for half). The roast duck is treasured for its crisp, paper-thin skin wrapped in rice paper roll, but you can also opt to have the rest of the bird stir-fried as a second dish (from $16).
