I said it during the tasting and I’ll say it again here – this is the best pencai I’ve tasted this year for CNY. Yes, like most other pencai, it has an abundance of auspicious delicacies which include abalones, sea cucumber, fish maw, conpoy, dried oysters, pig’s tendon, and black sea moss. What makes Prima’s pencai different is that it came in a flavourful clear soup (instead of thick gravy) cooked over fire in a claypot for hours. That soup was deep in seafood flavours, which was to me the highlight of this pencai, and for the entire CNY course here.
🔸
Besides this pencai, Prima Tower also offers Sautéed Bird's Nest with Egg White (second pic), where fluffly egg whites was mixed with smooth bird’s nest; Braised Pig Trotters with Fish Maw and Fatt Choy in Claypot (third pic); and Braised Fresh Scallop with Water Chestnut in Chilli Sauce (last pic).
🔸
This is Singapore’s only seafront revolving restaurant. It was quite an experience for me to have dined at this timeless restaurant boasting panoramic views.

This is beautifully presented as a pair of white swans / black swans.
.
Similar to its counterpart, this has a crisp exterior which crunches softly to reveal the piping hot moist interior, whose blend of yam / taro, fresh deshelled shrimp / prawns, and satay gravy marinated minced chicken, are tender in texture with sweet savoury nutty earthy flavours.
.
Interesting fusion flavours here, nice.

This is generous in its portion of soft wobbly egg white, flaky tender shreds of white mackerel fish, and chewy dried scallops.
.
Completed with a single luscious egg yolk, you're meant to stir the dish well, mixing everything together with a splash of black vinegar, before eating.
.
This has bright eggy sweet savoury sour flavours; I enjoyed it.

This fluffy soft bun tears apart easily to reveal a thick, luscious, creamy filling of yam / taro paste, which slowly oozes out.
.
Almost silky smooth in texture, this has bright earthy sweet salty flavours that are so addictive. Couldn't stop at just one, so we got more.

.
The soft slippery rice noodle rolls are tighly wrapped around a crisp fried dough fritter, which crunches softly to release the tender bouncy squid cake within.

The 1st serving features the peking duck skin, served with your choice of soft egg crepe or flour crepe, alongside juicy crunchy cucumber, crisp leeks, and a sticky hoisin sauce.
.
Wrap the crisp duck skin with all the ingredients, and bite in, releasing the lovely vegetal sweet savoury meaty salty flavours. An enjoyable, interactive process.
.
The 2nd serving uses the remaining duck meat, stir-fried in a luscious ginger and spring onion gravy.
.
The duck meat is nicely tender with a light chew, and deep meaty savoury flavour. The ginger and spring onions lend a soft crunch, and the gravy is tasty with deep savoury salty herbal flavours.
.
Overall, a good choice of dish for sharing.
