Chinese New Year 2026 is just around the corner, and with it comes one of the most anticipated rituals of the season: tossing yee sang to usher in good fortune for the Year of the Horse. A highlight of reunion dinners, this dish is like a joyful ceremony that brings everyone around the table together, chopsticks in hand, ready to toss high and shout auspicious wishes for the year ahead.
Traditionally, yee sang features a medley of ingredients such as fresh salmon, shredded carrots and daikon, pomelo, crushed peanuts, sesame seeds, crispy crackers, five spice powder, and sweet plum sauce. Each component symbolises blessings like prosperity, longevity and abundance. As the platter is mixed together in a lou sang or lou hei ritual, diners chant well known phrases like ‘nian nian you yu’, a wish for abundance year after year.
In recent times, the classic yee sang has evolved. Many chefs and restaurants now put their own spin on the dish, incorporating premium seafood like Australian lobster or playful, unexpected toppings that add a contemporary edge. Even if you prefer to stick to tradition or you’re keen to try something more inventive, there is an impressive range of options to explore this festive season.
To help you kick off your celebrations with ease, we have rounded up some of the best places in KL and PJ to order your yee sang platter for Chinese New Year 2026. From classic favourites to modern showstoppers, these spots promise a delicious and meaningful start to the festivities.
