Season’s Best is the most luxurious way to Lohei at home
Blue Lotus collaborates with Tuck Lee Ice to introduce a unique way to enjoy its Signature Norweigan Smoked Salmon Yusheng in the comfort of your home or office
(SINGAPORE, 11 Jan 2021) With the Covid pandemic still affecting us one year after it started it looks as if it is going to affect Singapore’s most celebrated and most social festival. With Chinese New Years approaching the large gathering of families will be the next victim of Covid. Limited to eight people at a restaurant outing this year’s Lohei meal just won’t be the same.
While numbers for a gathering can exceed eight at home most options for doing Lohei at home are not that great. Well, now you can say goodbye to Yusheng in plastic containers or laying out newspapers on the table and referring to your phones to figure out how to Lohei.
Singapore’s critically acclaimed Chinese restaurant, Blue Lotus is collaborating with Tuck Lee to introduce Season’s Best. This collaboration will see Blue Lotus’ highly raved about Yusheng in a luxurious red gift box that you can bring as a gift during Chinese New Year visiting.
A New Way to Lohei
The Season’s Best gift box opens up to reveal the Blue Lotus Signature Norweigan Smoked Salmon Yusheng which is a festive dish comprising 10 herbs and vegetables, two aromatic spices, three types of nuts, tea-smoked salmon and salmon skin. It is then topped with a generous dose of spring-onion-infused olive oil and wild honey yuzu dressing.
The Yusheng is surrounded by a guide of festive sayings for each ingredient which is printed in golden Chinese characters and Hanyu pinyin. Once you unbox the yusheng, the Season Best’s gift box is designed to collect the prosperous mess that comes with tossing of the Yusheng.
At a tasting with others media personalities I had the opportunity to check it out. While my fellow dinners may be known for the journalistic skills, they can now be known for being quite messy when tossing the ingredients (as one should be). Most of the mess went onto the perimeter of the gift box and so the mess left to clean up was limited.
Developing a dedicated experience for takeaway customers
“We feel that customers may want to celebrate at home and thus, we decided to focus on the takeaway experience for our guests. Food safety is also very important to us. This led us to partner with Tuck Lee Ice to design these gift boxes and have our Yusheng deliveries to be done via Tuck Lee Ice’s cold trucks,” said Chef Ricky Ng, Managing Director, Blue Lotus Concepts.
Order Season’s Best Yusheng
Season’s Best Yusheng costs $88. Customers can pay $18 for island wide delivery. They can start ordering Season’s Best Yusheng via seasonsbest.sg from 14 January 2021. From 14 January till 25 January 2021, there is a 10% discount on all Yusheng orders.

The Yusheng is good for 8-10pax and customers can choose to add on additional crispy salmon skin, Norwegian smoked salmon and abalone.
The tasting also included the dinner, which was totally excellent. Each dish begins with the freshest ingredients and excellently prepared.
