As the Year of the Dragon approaches, Wok Star invites diners on a journey to discover traditional flavours with a modern twist for a truly star-studded celebration. From 29 January to 24 February 2024, chose to indulge in the heart of the city or ‘dabao’ (takeaway) with a well-balanced Celestial 4-course Set Menu and a selection of Heavenly Yee Sangs to usher in the Lunar New Year with your loved ones.

Wok Star’s Celestial Prosperity 4-Course Set Menu

Inspired by Kuala Lumpur’s rich cultural heritage and the traditions of Chinese New Year, Executive Chef Ahmad Zaim has thoughtfully curated a contemporary 4-course menu that will set diners on an elevated nostalgia voyage. He also pays nuance to Hotel Indigo ideology of celebrating the neighbourhood and to discover, or rediscover, by incorporating local farm-to-table ingredients into the diverse menu.

The Celestial Prosperity hits the mark with its high-quality offerings, starting with Abundance Delight – Baby Octopus, Mango Salad, Fish Maw and Caramelised Honey Sesame, followed by the classic Prosperity Hot and Sour Soup – served with a Steamed Bao Bun. Leading into the main course, Executive Chef Ahmad Zaim has spared no expense with the three contrasting premium selections, which will be served with his signature Ong Lai Yong Chow Fried Rice.
