Don’t be surprised if you keep seeing the shape of a certain fire-breathing serpent everywhere you look, because it’s officially the year of the dragon! Be on the lookout for dragon-inspired everything this Chinese New Year, from decorations to costumes and even yu sheng. This year, practically every restaurant is arranging the symbolic dish into the shape of a dragon in the spirit of the holiday and we’re not complaining — an edible dragon is a wondrous sight to behold. Here are our favourite places to get the best yu sheng in Singapore.
