Mastercard presents an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy the finest plant-based cuisine at Yuan, a modern Chinese vegetarian fine-dining restaurant. Exclusively for Mastercard cardholders, this seasonal tasting menu invites diners to explore vibrant vegetarian gastronomy, where executive chef Ronald Shao showcases his culinary creativity using rare and seasonal ingredients such as white asparagus and black truffles.
The evening starts with a refreshing welcome drink, a blend of bitter melon, celery, cucumber, green apple and kale, an invigorating introduction to the plant-based experience that awaits. This is followed by an amuse-bouche which brings a harmonious mix of flavours in a crispy cone, featuring Anaheim pepper, dried bean curd and jicama.

Each course highlights the best seasonal ingredients. From the bold kung pao-style white ferula mushroom with dried red chilli to the delicate white asparagus paired with baby corn and okra, each dish offers a thoughtful balance of texture and flavour. The meal continues with a delicate bamboo shoot soup enhanced by wild yellow mushroom and Dragon Well tea, followed by mains such as the Hakka tofu with morel mushrooms or black vinegar wonton with fig.
