Traveling Gourmet: Tea & Dine at Four Seasons Singapore

It's pinkies up at the Four Seasons Hotel Singapore now through October 31. We hear that tea connoisseurs are in for a treat at Jiang-Nan Chun, the Chinese restaurant on site. A new Tea & Dine experience has been unveiled.

A new Chinese Tea series has been crafted to complement the Cantonese fare served up at the restaurant. Health note: Chinese teas contain high levels of cancer-fighting elements as well as antioxidants that aid in lowering cholesterol, increase digestion and improve blood circulation.

The five-course lunch includes a tea-pairing menu. Here's a sneak peek at some of the goodies on hand: Kurobuta pork with jasmine pearl tea or stir-fried phoenix prawn with longing tea. The dinner menu includes double boiled Chinese cabbage soup with mushroom bamboo pith and convoy, paired with golden phoenix tea.

Deluxe delight: A six-course tea-pairing dinner menu is also available, featuring dishes such as baked lamb chop with golden phoenix tea and steamed bay ling mushroom and seafood with rain flower tea.
