JANICE WONG LAUNCHES THE FLOATING WORLD UIKYO HIGH TEA IN COLLABORATION WITH ONG SHUNMUGAM

Janice Wong invites guests to travel on a culinary journey to experience a taste of Japan with her second High Tea series, The Floating World Ukiyo, in collaboration with Ong Shunmugam.

Ong Shunmugam, a local designer known for her fashion, tableware and rattan work will showcase her collection of Suvarnabumi Porcelain, tableware that is lovingly built around the Asian dining table, cuisine and culinary rituals. Made in Arita, Japan, Janice Wong takes inspiration from the beauty of the porcelain and creates a modern sweet & salty culinary experience named “The floating world, Ukiyo 浮世”, which means “floating world” and describes the feeling of being present and mindful of the current moment, unbothered by stress.

Priced at S$60 per person, the menu features a playful take on Japanese and Asian flavours and techniques such as Miso pork and chicken dumplings wrapped like a candy bun in homemade red white skin. Other items in the menu include the Citrus Bergamot Yuzu Passionfruit Basil Tart, Strawberry Swiss Roll, Rose Chocolates, Soba Noodles, Peach Wagashi confectioneries and pillow soft fresh mochis.

The Floating World Ukiyo High Tea menu is available every weekend at 2am:dessertbar from 14 November through to 6 December 2020, with limited sets available each day.

Reservations can be made via 2am:dessertbar online.
