Yum Cha's SG60 menu features $6 SG-inspired dim sum like bak kut teh xiao long bao, laksa chee cheong fun & more
Dim sum lovers, you're gonna want to read on. From now till 31 Aug, Yum Cha is rolling out 8 limited-edition dishes — all priced at just S$6 each in honour of SG60 — at both its Chinatown and Changi Business Park outlets.
Founded in 2000, Yum Cha is a nostalgic dim sum restaurant that serves a unique mix of traditional recipes and modern creations. This time around, their special SG60 menu features inventive combos that take inspiration from iconic local flavours, like bak kut teh and laksa.
With that, the top of the must-try list is their (3 pcs) — morsels of labour and love featuring a robust, 16-hour slow-steamed herbal broth turned into soupy dumpling gold, complete with goji berries and a side of dark soy sauce and chilli. A staple Singaporean and dim sum favourite in one; this one's an icon indeed!
Another standout is the Handmade (3 pcs), where fragrant, coconut-rich otak is lovingly wrapped in a jade-hued spinach-infused wrapper, and topped with black tobiko for some bite and flair.
Chee cheong fun is a must-order for me whenever I eat dim sum, and Yum Cha's Rice Flour Roll is a decadent reinterpretation of this classic. Think triple texture from the crispy rice net and silky skin, stuffed to the brim with crabmeat, shrimp, chicken and tau pok, and then bathed in a rich, 13-spice laksa gravy.
Can't end a meal without a sweet treat? The Kopi Gao Bao (2 pcs), created in partnership with Singaporean brand Coffee Hock, pays homage to our bold and smooth kopitiam brew in the form of an oozy paste encased in fluffy steamed buns.
Other dishes on the menu include the Crusty Chilli Crab (2 pcs), Fried Rice, Pork Pancake and (2 pcs).
To round off your feast, spend a minimum of S$60 in a single receipt and you can purchase a handmade Five Stones set at just S$6 (U.P. S$12.80). These nostalgic beanbags reminiscent of Singapore's kampung days are sewn by artisans with special needs, through Yum Cha's collaboration with SG Enable and Re:store to support inclusivity.
(p.s. Challenge against Yum Cha's in-house Five Stones Champions for a shot at winning a S$20 dining voucher!)
