Join us for a groundbreaking culinary event where East meets West in a delightful symphony of flavours. For the first time in Singapore, experience the unique combination of Portuguese wine paired with Chinese cuisine in an exclusive wine dinner. Hosted by wine expert David Marques Ferreira from TUGA and culinary maestro Chef Lee HongWei from Yue Bai, this event invites you to explore the harmonious interplay between specially selected Portuguese wines and exclusively crafted Chinese cuisine.
Despite Portugal and Fujian being worlds apart, their historic sea routes bridge the gap, weaving a rich tapestry of shared culinary heritage. During the Age of Discoveries, Portuguese navigators charted new seas and brought home exotic ingredients that would forever change local cuisines, including those of Fujian. This blend of flavors from East and West is epitomized in dishes that fuse the sweet, tangy notes of tomatoes and the earthy punch of peanuts, originally introduced by the Portuguese, with traditional Fujian techniques and tastes. Celebrating this historical melding, culinary pairings of Fujian dishes with Portuguese wines offer a delightful exploration of these intertwined gastronomic traditions. This fusion not only honors the past but also enriches modern dining, creating unique experiences that highlight the global journey of flavors across centuries.
