How a simple raw fish salad stripped to its essence, embodies the core of the Lunar Chinese New Year. Lo Hei Singapore is believed to have started during the 1960s by a group of innovative chefs, referred to as “Four Heavenly Kings.” They put their spin on the dish and transformed the act of raising your vibration by tossing the salad high while mixing before serving in restaurants, in what the dish is called today: Yusheng.
So often the awkward family photos with everyone screaming ‘HUAT AH!’ cringe you hard. Right about now, mindful eating Yusheng is all about focusing on yourself and your significant other, appreciating the simple goodness of the dish. The following are 8 low-key iconic Lo Hei Singapore hot spots.
